At six years old, Clara met fire and shadow...

Her parents were murdered, her home burned to the ground, and her past erased. She grew up believing she was a delusional orphan, haunted by fragments of memories that made no sense. The only clue was her mother’s jade necklace—a relic as mysterious as it was beautiful.

Now, as a pre-med student, she lives a so-called normal life. But when a stranger attacks and a surge of power explodes from within, everything changes. Her memories are real, the man who hunted her is back, and she is far from safe. As Clara’s abilities grow, so do the questions about who—and what—she really is.

Across the ocean, Robin—more monster than man—has spent a thousand years bound to darkness and seen empires rise and fall. But when Clara stumbles into his path, something about her shatters his centuries-old indifference. As dangers close in, Robin finds himself inexplicably drawn to her, even as he tries to resist.

Clara is thrust into a world of magic and peril, where, since love and loyalty are as fragile as the truths she seeks, she must unlock her hidden powers.

The Jade Necklace begins a series of power and destiny, where love and treacherous forces hunt the chosen and the cursed.
