The Secret Heir Kelly Beilfuss

All fifteen-year-old Evan Hale wants out of life is to be as brave and adventurous as his grandfather. Unfortunately, Evan's life can't be described as anything but incredibly average. Between his days in school and his afternoons working at the local pet store, Evan's life is entirely mundane. Until one day, when tragedy strikes and his life changes forever. After giving one final salute his grandfather's funeral, Evan can't shake the feeling that he's being watched. After days of looking over his shoulder, Evan's paranoia is confirmed when he's attacked, but a mysterious purple-haired girl named Allana whisks him away to a world more magical than his wildest dreams. What Evan soon learns is that there's evil lurking beneath the mystical exterior. Fresh with their own grief over their beloved May Queen's assassination, the courts of Aeternum are prey for their sinister enemy, the Shadow Court. Allana, the Queen's maid and close companion, will do anything to avenge her friend and save her home. Unbeknownst to Evan, he's come into possession of a power that places him right in the crossfire. The power destined to decide if this violent usurper will bring the world of Aeternum to its knees. Will Evan and Allana be able to stop the force fighting against them, or will Aeternum be doomed to a rule of tyranny?
