Brenna James wanted waffles, not world-ending chaos. But with fire in her hands, she's got everything to lose.
Brenna James wanted one thing for her birthday: Belgian waffles. Instead, her mom has vanished, her ADHD is tanking her history grade, and her hands keep literally catching fire.
When Brenna travels through a portal to find her mom, her arrival in the kingdom of Linneah sparks chaos. A royal is dead. The kingdom's most powerful relic, the Sacred Veil, is missing. And a griffin has just signed up to be her mode of transportation.
Brenna partners with Baldwin, an irritatingly attractive swordsman, and Arvandus the griffin to rescue her mom and catch the thief who stole the Sacred Veil. But with armies marching and monsters circling, her new priority becomes a lot simpler: don't die.
Although staying focused has never been easy, she must choose between finding her mom or losing her forever, between saving a kingdom or watching it fall.
If Brenna survives this birthday...well, she deserves waffles.
Spark is the first book of this portal fantasy adventure readers are calling awesome, imaginative, and action-packed. Begin the journey today.
This is a second edition with new cover art, updated content, and an additional short story.
