Maya's life was already a mess. She had a crush on a guy who was in love with her best friend, a cat who ignored her, and a heart full of feelings no one asked for. So naturally, when a mysterious man in a weird alley offered her a spell to "ease the pain," she said yes. Oops. Now there's magic in her blood, monsters at her door, and four insanely hot strangers calling her their "fated mate." She's dragged to Blood Valley Academy, a floating school in another realm where magical creatures all learn to control their powers. But Maya? She doesn’t even know what she is, until she opens a portal, and accidentally fulfills the beginning of an ancient prophecy. Even worse?

If Maya doesn't figure out which one of her so-called soulmates is a traitor... she might die a second, and final, death.
