Into Infernal Paradise by Michelle Toro

Where Ember Slade goes, destruction follows. For years she’s isolated in Dallas, never allowing herself to get close to anyone, doing whatever it takes to avoid causing harm again. Until she’s stolen away to the hidden Magick Realm, where she learns that she is the last alloy of their world, that her accidents are due to her untapped abilities, and that she was actually born in the island kingdom of Nysa. In exchange for her allegiance to Nysa, she’ll have the opportunity to learn control over her powers. Desperate for answers about her past, to finally live a life free of death and pain, Ember takes the deal. But the Nysan queen craves death. And she wants Ember to be her weapon. When Ember learns of the queen’s plans to wage a war with another magical kingdom—starting with the sacrifice of her own daughter—Ember can no longer simply learn her powers and then return home. As she struggles to hone her abilities, Ember must escape war and save the princess…all while vowing to do no harm to anyone else.
