Seventh Born

Abomination. Curse. Murderer. Eighteen-year-old Seraphina Dovetail has heard every name hurled at her. As the seventh-born daughter to a witch, Sera was responsible for her mother losing her powers and, in turn, her life. Now Sera dreams of becoming an inspector and finding her remaining family. But thanks to her birth order, quick temper, and tendency to set things on fire, she doesn't have a chance at getting into the Advanced Studies Program at the Aetherium's Witchling Academy. Fortunately, an outcast with failing marks is exactly what Professor Nikolai Barrington is looking for. Now the tall, brooding, and exceedingly handsome young professor is offering Sera a proposition: if she'll become his assistant, he'll give her the referral she needs to get into the program. Suddenly, Sera finds herself thrust into a world where witches are kidnapped, bodies are raised from the dead, and someone is burning seventh-borns alive. And as Sera and Barrington grow ever closer, she's discovering that some secrets are best left buried...and fire isn't the only thing that makes a witch burn.The Witchling Academy series is best enjoyed in order.Reading Order:Book #1 Seventh BornBook #2 Mirror Bound
