Synopsis

"It's almost Valentine's Day, and Zoë Sorensson's love life is heating up. Cute, loyal, and understanding, wolf shifter Derek is pretty much the perfect guy. He likes Zoë and he knows what it's like to have to keep a secret. Yet Zoë can't help but wish it was rebel rocker Jared asking her to the Valentine's dance instead. But Jared's too busy playing hot and cold with her heart, calling Zoë his "dragon girl" one minute, then taking special interest in her best friend the next. Zoë about ready to breathe fire, especially once she uncovers a new threat that targets her friends. Zoë thought the Mages were defeated, but they're back and have invoked an old spell to give them new power--and they plan to eliminate all shifters on the night of the big dance. Now Zoë must lead an alliance of young shifters to battle the Mages and figure out exactly what--and who--she wants, before it all goes up in smoke..."--
