A troubled young Firestarter meets her troublemaker grandmother.
Avella's cold, distant mother does not appreciate her gift of fire, and her spiteful sister is desperate to drive the wedge between Avella and her family even deeper, but to Avella's relief, everything changes when Avella's grandmother appears.
At first, Avella is delighted her firestarting is considered a gift rather than a curse, until she discovers her grandmother's plans to use Avella's gift in her insatiable quest for revenge.
Locked in a tower with no prospect of escape, Avella is forced to depend on the kindness of a handsome stranger for salvation, but when things take a turn for the worse, she knows her only hope of survival is to dig deep and find the strength to control the fire within and the courage to face her evil grandmother.
