Heal and Destroy (Nine Kingdoms Book 1)

Magic belongs to the elite. She'll steal it anyway. Cass has survived by scrubbing floors and picking pockets. When the Academy chooses her, she’s thrust into a world of dragons and merciless scholars. Magic makes her a healer, and Cass finds something she couldn’t steal: a future. Her mentor, Nick, is hiding a crown. She’s falling for him anyway. Then the villages start burning, and saving the people she loves means handing her power to the one person who’s never told her the truth. The Nine Kingdoms saga begins with a thief who learns to heal. The complete four-book series is available now.
