The Scars Within (Twisted Thorn Book 1)

About the book

One girl. Two brothers. A school built on secrets. And a bond that could burn the world down. Scarlet Thorne has been broken. Burned alive and survived. Now she’s a wild card with forbidden magic and a dragon with no memories—enrolled in Mageia War College only because she has nowhere else to go. She’ ... s supposed to stay quiet. Stay controlled. Stay away from too much power. Too bad control has never been her strong suit. She never expected to find purpose. Or friendship. Or to fall for two brothers with secrets of their own. Caught between the welcoming, charming Shayde and the unpredictable, dangerous Rhodes Wylder, Scarlet must guard her heart as fiercely as her life. Falling for either of them would be a mistake. Falling for both? That could be deadly. But love isn’t the only fire rising. Someone is hunting Scarlet from within the college walls. Professors are dying. Whispers swirl that she is the one destined to destroy them all. And the more Scarlet digs for truth, the more her own darkness threatens to break free. Her magic is illegal. Her past is a secret. And her heart? Already split in two. As dark truths unravel and betrayal cuts deeper than any blade, Scarlet must confront the trauma she’s buried, the power she never asked for, and a fate that may cost her everything. The Scars Within is a spellbinding romantasy packed with slow-burn heat, found family, snarky banter, and a dangerous romance that scorches through every page. Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing, Pow
