“I am attuned to three things: blood, fire, and love.”
— Seraphina, In Flames
Think: fantasy academia with a mystery
When Seraphina is accepted into the prestigious Kestral Medical College, she intends to focus on her medical training in order to cope with her father's mysterious disappearance. Unfortunately, her plans take an unexpected turn when her infamous matchmaking ability slips out and pairs her with both of her alluring dormitory neighbors, Alexi and Dario—something that Sera isn't sure has ever happened before.
As she navigates her powerful connection to her newfound soulmates and sinks into their intimate connection, it becomes increasingly clear that their bond can't be a mistake. However, as Sera delves deeper into her research on matchmaking and the links between the inherent ability and the history of Kestral Medical College, she exposes a dark secret that was certainly meant to stay buried. With the help of Alexi and Dario and the encouragement of the ghost of a past student, Sera must decide if she's willing to risk everything to find out the truth... including her heart and her fate.
