Chapter 13: The Lark Ascending

Send us Fan Mail • In the heart of Ardent Hollow, the town gathers for a long-awaited winter tradition. One whispered about in hushed tones and steeped in reverence. As Jason navigates a delicate introduction to the forces that rule this hidden place, Kat slips deeper into the mystery on her own, drawn toward a truth her father refuses to share. But beneath the ceremony’s facade lies something far older, and far more dangerous than either of them anticipated. In Ardent Hollow, belonging comes at a cost. And once the ritual begins, there’s no turning back.
