“A fun romp for Twilight Fans” – School Library Journal
After being raised by the meanest fairies in the history of ever, Bryar Rose is now free to live her own life. For the first time, she’s attending West Lake Prep, a regular high school. Well, mostly regular. Some students are actually hidden members of the Magicorum. In other words, they’re really wizards, fairies, or shifters. Bry doesn’t mind, though. She’s thrilled to enjoy all the new experiences of being around normal kids her age, from locker pranks to lunchtime mystery meat. Everything is going along great, except for one thing.
Bry’s dreams about the pyramids of Egypt have gotten darker and more sinister. Every night, she sees her new man Knox and her best friend Elle in danger.
“Exciting and well-conceived” – Kirkus
With no other choice, Bry plans to leave school to explore the pyramids on her own. But her new man Knox discovers the scheme and is having none of it. He wants to stay by her side, no matter what. It’s a good thing too, because Bry must solve the mystery of her attraction to the pyramids and soon. Otherwise, it could cost the lives of those she loves most.
And that means not only Knox, but also her best friend Elle.

Review
4/5
So it starts with Bryar getting ready to start her first day of her senior year. Now that her curse is over she can try and do normal things, despite her powers. She has a boyfriend Knox. And friends rule and alec. She starts having these strange dreams about ancient Egypt and they always leave her feeling like something bad going to happen. In top of all this she has a book to translate, school to deal with, magic and strange dreams. What a time to be 17.
The book wasn't bad. It's the 2nd book in the series. You dont actually need to read the others to read this one but it would be easier to understand if you did. I loved that Bryar is a kick ass woman. She is strong and confident and if she isn't, shes honest with Knox. I like how their relationship is. They are good together and feel real. The story is good and definitely kept me engaged the whole time. I look forward to reading more
