Five

All Rayla Tate wanted was a life of her own. Falling for a mysterious stranger was never part of the plan.

College was supposed to be Rayla's fresh start—a chance to escape her overprotective aunt, pursue her dreams of becoming an artist, and finally live life on her own terms.

Unfortunately, Rayla isn't the only one with plans for her future.

The moment she leaves her sheltered hometown, she attracts the attention of the Wild Hunt, an ancient Fae tradition with deadly consequences. Strange encounters, impossible creatures, and unsettling discoveries soon turn her carefully planned escape into something far more dangerous.

Then she meets Zach.

Charming, infuriating, and devastatingly attractive, Zach awakens feelings Rayla can't explain. But he's hiding secrets of his own, and the closer she gets to him, the more her ordinary world begins to unravel.

Rayla is an Elemental, born with a rare power coveted by the Fae Lords. And Zach isn't the only one who stirs unexpected feelings. As powerful Fae enter her life, Rayla finds herself caught between attractions she doesn't understand and magical bonds that could steal the very freedom she's fought so hard to claim.

With her missing mother's secrets still unanswered and the Fae determined to shape her destiny, Rayla must discover the truth about her power before someone else decides her future.

The Fae believe destiny has already chosen her path. Rayla intends to prove them wrong.
