The Harmonia Chronicles: the YA version #1
Arcane: the YA version
They promised her a home. Instead, they gave her war.
After an accident kills her parents, Malia’s life is turned upside down—taken to an academy she’s never heard of, surrounded by people with powers she didn’t know existed, preparing for a war that started centuries before she was born. She doesn’t want to fight. She doesn’t want destiny. But when the strange dreams haunting her begin to blur with reality, Malia realizes her fate may be more tangled with the coming war than she dares admit.
Keeping up with the other students is hard. Surviving the brutal training is harder still. But nothing challenges her more than Keahi—the boy who seems determined to break her spirit. Can she possibly be what people expect from her? And more importantly, how will she survive living under the same roof as a certain sharp-tongued boy?
Dive into a world of magic, rivalry, and a war that could end them all.
Arcane is book 1 of the Harmonia Chronicles and can't be read as a standalone. The series will be completed in December 2025! Tropes include: Forced proximity, academic childhood rivals, he falls first, switching pov's, fight scenes, slow burn.

Oh my gosh. I have been wanting to read this book for probably about a year but I just didn’t know if I was willing to skip over the spice in it. But when I heard that there was going to be a YA version I jumped for joy! I was so excited for this book in ways that I can’t even describe. So the second I woke up today..I downloaded this book and began reading. And continued reading. And continued reading. Now I’m left in shock and in so much pain because I READ IT IN 12 HOURS!!! I genuinely cannot believe this book and how much I loved it. BECAUSE I LOVED IT!!! It was so good! I loved the characters. The magic system. The plot. EVERYTHING! The book was addictive and so fast paced and I was giggling and kicking my feet MULTIPLE times while reading this book! I am sad that I have to wait until November for Reprise but I seriously CANNOT WAIT FOR IT TO COME OUT!
