The first thing most people notice about Mira is how pretty she is, and for a long time, she believed that was her most important feature. But Mira is smarter than she realizes. She's kind. And she truly believes in goodness, love, and hope. She finds it very easy to love other people, but she needs to learn to love herself, too.
Aaru: Quiet. Thoughtful. Gentle. Aaru grew up very sheltered, but he's curious about the world and eager to learn about other people's lives. He's never had much in the way of worldly possessions, and he's lost even more, but he has a deep inner strength that keeps him moving forward even in the worst of times.
Gerel: Gerel appears hard and detached from the world, but this is by design. She was raised in a culture where softness is weakness, and physical strength and stoicism is prized. She prides herself on being right (she often is) and being encouraging (without looking like she's encouraging).
Chenda: She comes across as aloof and distanced, and in some respects, she is. But for Chenda, that attitude is an armor, because she cares deeply about the world she lives in. Her political upbringing means that she is very good at seeing the big picture, but sometimes, she loses track of the individual.
Ilina: Mira's best friend is loyal to a fault. She is always, always on the side of Mira, and on the side of dragons. This can cause problems in other relationships, and so she is learning to see people more clearly.
Hristo: Mira's bodyguard is solidly loyal to her, and a source of deep strength. While he often appears serious, it's because he's dedicated to his duty of protecting Mira. He has a lighthearted side he shows only to those who win his trust. He also loves food.
Zara: Mira's younger sister is a little sheltered, a little spoiled, and very jealous of how Mira was treated while they were growing up. More than anything, Zara wants to be special, too, and she's deeply afraid that she's not

Book Blurb:
Before She Ignites (Fallen Isles #1)
Before
Mira Minkoba is the Hopebearer. Since the day she was born, she’s been told she’s special. Important. Perfect. She’s known across the Fallen Isles not just for her beauty, but for the Mira Treaty named after her, a peace agreement which united the seven islands against their enemies on the mainland.
But Mira has never felt as perfect as everyone says. She counts compulsively. She struggles with crippling anxiety. And she’s far too interested in dragons for a girl of her station.
After
Then Mira discovers an explosive secret that challenges everything she and the Treaty stand for. Betrayed by the very people she spent her life serving, Mira is sentenced to the Pit–the deadliest prison in the Fallen Isles. There, a cruel guard would do anything to discover the secret she would die to protect.
No longer beholden to those who betrayed her, Mira must learn to survive on her own and unearth the dark truths about the Fallen Isles–and herself–before her very world begins to collapse.
