Synopsis

Sometimes the ones who save us are the ones we need to fear the most.

In a world where dark faeries have stepped in to save the planet from humanity's mistakes, seventeen-year-old December Thorne is nothing but a shadow. Shunned by her peers, bullied at school, and paid a little too much attention by her sleazy foster father, she lives in constant fear and perpetual solitude.

Until the day everything changes.

Offered a scholarship to the prestigious Oberon Academy, December finds herself living in a whole new world. Boundless food, clean clothes, a safe place to sleep, and the potential for true friendship make her new life seem almost too good to be true—but the school has a secret.

The truth is, Oberon Academy isn't just a prep school for society's elite. It’s a training ground for a secret race of magical beings no one knows exists. And they're preparing for war.

Filled with fear and denial, December has a choice to make. She can either return to her pathetic life with her dangerous foster parents, try to survive on her own, or make Oberon Academy her home and discover the truth about who, and what she really is.

And that truth could save the world.

This book is not bad, I just didnt find anything interesting enough to even finish it. While it started off good, it fell flat very soon. December is an orphan stuck in an abusive foster home with an increasingly creepy foster dad. After a weird incident at school she is interviewed and soon rescued (h......more

Goodreads review by Jennifer on June 11, 2019

This book was ok. It had a lot of potential, but the entire thing was rushed. I feel like I was told everything instead of shown. And there were a lot of "problems" that were resolved super quickly.

Love this book, for so many reasons. The characters are wonderful - December being my favorite. I enjoyed watching her start out as essentially a victim, but then maturing, coming into her own power by the end. Easton is so dreamy and I'm looking forward to seeing that relationship blossom.
