In "Frost and Flame," seventeen-year-old Aria's world is turned upside down when she discovers she possesses both ice and fire abilities—a forbidden combination in a society where elemental magic determines one's place. Forced to flee her northern village, Aria embarks on a treacherous journey across a realm fractured by elemental factions. Along the way, she forms unlikely alliances with Zephyr, a wind-wielder outcast, and Terran, a stoic earth-bender, as they uncover a sinister plot threatening to upend the delicate balance of their world.
