The Irhenäs Series

Smother Fire

On the surface, Alex and her friends seem like ordinary high school students. But no one else knows they are mentaries—people with the ability to control one of the four elements.

One day, Alex’s grandparents show up and force her to attend Irhenäs, a secret, exclusive boarding school for mentaries. All Alex wants is to stay home. She doesn’t understand why she, and not her friends, has been chosen to go.

Once at the school, new problems arise. Her roommate does everything she can to make Alex’s life miserable—and she’s not the only one. Alex must watch out for magical fire, secret rituals, and new enemies.

Who decided she must attend the school? Why are powerful people interested in her existence? Could it be connected to the illegal powers she’s able to use?
