Magic in the Blood: Volume 3 of the Wild Side Trilogy
It Ends Here
Alicia’s life is turned upside down when the barrier between the regular world and the magical realm of the Wild Side collapses. Strange forces spill into her beloved lake area, and Alicia discovers something incredible: she has a rare and powerful magic inside her, tied to the land and its delicate balance.
But this discovery also brings danger.
A destructive entity from the Wild Side, fueled by hatred, threatens Alicia’s lake - a place that feels like a
part of her soul - and could unravel both the magical and regular worlds. As she learns to wield her newfound powers, Alicia realizes that her love for her home, her family, and her friends might be the key to saving everything she holds dear.
This third installment in the Wild Side trilogy of books (formerly Moose Beach trilogy) brings together everything readers love about the series: magical adventure, emotional depth, and big questions about courage, love, and protecting the world around us. If you are new to this MG series, don’t worry - you can still jump in and enjoy Alicia’s journey!
