Lion of Fire: Riley Jordan and the Fire Prophecies Book 1 by Brittany Ranew

Riley Jordan wasn’t ready to become an adult in the real world. This would be a normal feeling for most college graduates, but Riley lived in a world of magic, and he should have already discovered his special gift by his age. At this point, he wondered if his special gift was being a loser. After a chance meeting with an intriguing human girl named Emma Clark, his whole world gets turned upside down. Riley is instantly smitten by Emma, but he knows his world is too dangerous for her, as his family’s complicated past with humans has proven.

Soon after, Riley has a terrifying vision of a dark wizard threatening to destroy all of humankind. The weirdest part? Emma is in the vision. Things get even weirder when he discovers some powerful magic that hasn’t been seen in decades, which makes him think there is a lot more destiny about his life than he previously imagined.

Struggling to control these powers, he and his three best friends must portal-hop all over the magical realms to fight the darkness and discover the truth. Graduation and armageddon are both looming, and Riley must face his own fears of failure and learn how to protect those he loves, before it’s too late.
