The Dark Mother

Human. Witch. Demon...? Maybe not all darkness is bad. Hayden finally passed her Air Trial - barely. But the year of fire is only beginning. Just as she settled into the world of Asylum, Hayden is forced to run for her life. Only this time, she's running away from Asylum. And Jamie isn't letting her go alone. But running can't save her from the magic in her blood - magic that burns wildly out of control. As Hayden struggles with her fire magic, she questions everything she thought she knew. Is she the demon child of Leyla Nightfall? Is Hunter Black her father? The only two people who can answer her burning questions are prisoners of an unknown evil. Being the Salem Witch is hard enough, but when Hayden is infected with black magic, her own darkness grows stronger. Hayden must vanquish her demons if she's to unmask her greatest enemy - the Darkness she is destined to destroy - and pass her Fire Trial. But with the way things are going, she's more likely to burn the world to ashes. Will Hayden be consumed by hellfire? Or cleansed by holy flames? The Dark Mother is the second installment in an urban fantasy series intended for readers ages ten and above who love Percy Jackson and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
