Nina Harrow and Patrick Colson are plucked from their impoverished mining towns at age twelve to test for magical potential in glittering Belavere City. Nina becomes a rare Earth Artisan, while Patrick rejects the system and stays loyal to his Craftsman roots. Years later, a brewing Craftsman revolution forces Patrick and Nina into opposing factions—and even captures Nina into Patrick’s rebel group. As sparks reignite between them, Nina must choose between her duty to the Artisans and her bond with Patrick. But when her first love reappears with a tempting bargain that could betray Patrick, she faces an impossible decision that may reshape their world.
