Conduit of Fire by J.R. DuBois

Magic is Maddening.
Defiance is deadly.
And the government is hiding something.

When her best friend hangs for being one of the cursed Enchanted, Esmeralda is done staying silent.

The government claims Enchantment drives its users mad, and generations ago, it nearly destroyed the world. But evidence is scant, the testing process is obscure, and now even accusations can kill.

Brody hates Enchantment and its outdated religion that ruined his family. He’s seen firsthand what obsession with Enchantment can do, but Esmeralda refuses to heed his warnings. He won’t let her fight this alone.

When Esmeralda publicly challenges the government’s integrity, they name her Enchanted. She and Brody flee, armed with a forbidden book and an heirloom that alters her dreams.

As the truth comes to light, there’s more at stake than they realize.

And surviving it requires more than either are ready to give.
