Publisher Description: A girl who uses her illusions to fool the world into thinking she's just like all the other magi. A dragon who sees through her lies. Together they just might survive a world that wants to control or destroy them both. Kimberly may wield ultimate cosmic power, but even a mage has to pay the rent. No one will hire her for her magic talents until she's got the credentials, so she's stuck in a crappy rent controlled apartment with her mother, yearning for treats she can't afford at her part time job in a cafe, counting down the days until she graduates the secret Blackhollow Academy school for magi. Only then will she have the certificate she needs to land her dream job in a coven. The problem? She needs a familiar to graduate. As an illusionist, she doesn't have the ability to summon or create a familiar of her own. Her only option is to convince a supernatural creature to let her bind it instead. Since having a powerful Other at her beck and call would guarantee her a place in a coven after she graduates-and legendary treasure hoards are an added bonus-she thinks binding a dragon as her familiar will solve all her problems... Because sometimes a girl needs a dragon, not a knight. |
