Desperate, she contacts the director of the top secret witch academy in New York, who immediately invites them to stay at the school for a while for Jules to be assessed. At the same time, Karina is offered a translating internship for the summer with the United Nations in New York, and it seems that, once again, nothing can stand in the way of Karina’s rising star.

For once in her life, Karina finds herself at a standstill. Their time at the witches’ academy is running out, Jules is uncooperative and unhappy, and Karina knows that she may have to make the biggest sacrifice of her life to save him. She must find a way to do this without shattering her dreams and irrevocably hurting the man she loves.
