Amid Summer's Nightmare

The headmistress reveals Summer used a love spell on River, ensuring everyone's hatred, except her best friend's, Aspen Widow-Tears.

Unfortunately, he seems to want to transform their friendship into something more. Summer can't get over this recent heartbreak; she can't risk losing her best friend to the wreckage of her romantic history!

When Aspen disappears after a quarrel at the Solar Solstice party, she thinks she's burned her last bridge, but recurrent nightmares about a Night Hag hint something more sinister is afoot. Only Dahlia, with her water powers of clarity, can help Summer see the truth.

Can this fire witch rise above the ashes of heartbreak and seek help from her frenemy for the sake of Aspen? Or will her courage go up in smoke, when she uncovers the identity of the Night Hag?
