The magic is in her blood, and she never knew. Sometimes young women go missing in Moonlight Bay, Oregon, but Dari Jiménez decided the sleepy college there was still the one for her. When a supernatural monster attacks Dari in a dark stairwell, the struggle with everyday drama is swept aside. A tough, tattooed woman with a mohawk rescues Dari and introduces her to the arcane secrets of her birthright as the last member of an ages-old bloodline sworn to combat an invasion of elemental fiends tearing through the veil between their world and ours.

"I don't think you're weak, Dari. I never have." She turned back to me with a sad smile. "I'm afraid you're so strong, you'd rather break than bend."
I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5
It took me a little while to get into this book, but that was on me. But once I got into Dari's story, I wanted to know more. That could just be the noisy side of me, lol. In this new adult fantasy, Dari finds out she has summoner's magic. She comes to know this after being attacked by a daemon, and Mohawk tattoo badass mage named Ash saves Dari and her boyfriend Tyler.
There were times when reading I got lost when conversations were happening. I didn't know who was saying what to who, so I had to go back and reread just to understand what was happening.
The beginning did drag some, and there were points when I was like, why is this even in the story. But overall, I did like the storyline, and I am looking forward to reading the next book once published.
