The Phoenix Rising Trilogy

After accidentally setting her school gym on fire, Vivian Carmine learns the truth: she’s a phoenix, and her entire life has been one big, magical secret. When her parents suddenly vanish, Vivian is swept into RISE, a hidden spy academy that trains demi-gods and magical misfits to blend into the human world. Now, instead of homework and high school drama, she’s learning combat skills, managing chaotic fire powers, and trying not to burn everything down—literally.

Vivian Carmine never asked to be a hero—and definitely didn’t mean to lose the magical key that could destroy everything. Now Poseidon, a ruthless ocean tyrant, is on the hunt, and if he finds it first, he’ll flood the earth and wipe out magic as we know it. With time running out and everyone at RISE watching her every move, Vivian has to act fast.

Vivian delivered the Key to safety—now she has to stop the good guys from using it for the wrong reasons. After battling through the Underworld and across the ocean floor, she finally brought the Key of Light home. But the real fight is just beginning. The leaders she trusted at RISE are preparing to storm Olympus and force every magical creature back to their homeland—whether they want to go or not. Vivian’s done taking orders. With rebel gods rising and the fae caught in the crossfire, she knows this battle isn’t about power—it’s about freedom.
