Awakened, She Rises as the Frost

At six, Callista watched her aunt burn for teaching magic. The city-state of Os forbids any woman from practicing sorcery—punishable by fire. For fifteen years, she hid her femininity, disguised as a man, and scraped by at the Academy of Magic. When the Flame Clan massacres her family, Callista falls off a cliff—and awakens her ancient frost bloodline. She returns with thunderous fury: slays the clan lord, repels a dragon army, and publicly reveals herself as a woman. She stands before the Council of Elders and demands the abolition of the discriminatory edicts. Later, she travels to the Wind City-State under a false identity, meets Prince Silas, and falls in love. Together, they unite two realms and forge a new order where magic belongs to all—regardless of gender.
