Rylee and the Rising Flame

One year after discovering her powers, twelve-year-old Rylee Morgan is back at the Academy of Flamekeepers-and nothing is the same. Her magic is stronger. Her friendships are deeper. And the shadows waiting for her are darker than ever.

Strange tremors shake the Academy grounds. Wild magic bursts across campus. And a legendary phoenix, long believed extinct, is spotted circling the Ember Mountains. Every sign points to one startling truth: the Rising Flame has returned.

But as Rylee's power grows, so does a dangerous connection to the very force threatening their world. To protect her friends and the magical realms, Rylee must uncover forgotten lore, face unexpected betrayals, and learn to trust the fire inside her-even when it feels like it's burning out of control.

With more magic, more mystery, and higher stakes, Book Two ignites the next chapter of Rylee's extraordinary adventure.

When the flame rises, destiny rises with it.

Jennifer Touchstone writes magical stories for readers who believe courage can be found in unexpected places. When she isn't dreaming up new adventures for Rylee Morgan, she enjoys reading fantasy novels, exploring imaginative worlds, and inspiring young readers to believe in their own inner spark.

Rylee and the Rising Flame is the second book in The Rylee Morgan Chronicles.
