Magnolia Kelch is no stranger to pain. Beautiful and powerful, she’s spent her entire life at the mercy of her sadistic father and the rest of the Kelch clan, who have tortured her and tested the limits of her powers. After one particularly heinous night that leaves Magnolia nearly dead, she finally sees her chance for escape…
But this first taste of freedom is short-lived when she collides with Thirteen, head of the Network—a secret organization dedicated to fighting supernatural criminals—who recruits her into the group. Even as she’s coming to grips with this new life and the horrific memories that still haunt her, she’s conflicted by her growing attraction to fellow team member Theo and the emergence of new, untested abilities. After months of grueling training, her loyalty to the team is tested when she learns her target is the Network’s most wanted: the Kelch family.
Revenge may course through her veins, but so does the blood of the Kelches. And opposing her family may cost her the thing she treasures most. After all, Magnolia is still a Kelch. And the Kelch are damned.

"Solid start for this series. I want to know more but feel like I have enough information to keep going. The heroine , Magnolia, is kick ass and vulnerable. She is also put in a terrifying position with her family. Theo. theo. theo. what is the deal with that?"

— Tiffany, 7/16/2013" I really liked this book. It was well written, fast moving, and I sympathized with the main character, Magnolia. There was a bit of subtle romance but it's mainly urban fantasy. Recommend! Looking forward to reading book 2. "
— Anne, 7/16/2013" This was a great plot idea, but I couldn't into it. I probably got about 30% through before boredom, lack of action, and not understanding the supernatural abilities made me stop. "
