What Lily Carter wants most in the world is to attend
Princeton University just like her grandfather. When she
finally visits the campus, Grandpa surprises her: She has
been selected to take the top-secret Legacy Test. Passing
means automatic acceptance to Princeton. Sweet!
Lily's test is to find the Ivy Key. But what is she looking
for? Where does she start? As she searches, Lily is joined
by Tye, a cute college boy with orange and black hair who
says he's her guard. That's weird. But things get seriously
strange when a gargoyle talks to her. He tells her that
there are two Princetons—the ordinary one and a magical
one—and the Key opens the gate between them. But there are
more secrets that surround Lily. Worse secrets.
When Lily enters the magical Princeton, she uncovers old
betrayals and new dangers, and a chance at her dream becomes
a fight for her life. Soon Lily is caught in a power
struggle between two worlds, with her family at its center.
In a place where Knights slay monsters, boys are
were-tigers, and dragons might be out for blood, Lily will
need all of her ingenuity and courage—and a little magic—to
unite the worlds and unlock the secrets of her past and her
future.
