Kindness can change everything. Even your past. Aurelian farm girl Naima Gentlekind never thinks she was special. As the kindest girl in her village, she always shows up to help someone in need. She couldn't help but wonder if she wasn't born in Aurelia. Her hazy past comes back to haunt her when she learns she is a lost heir to a royal elven bloodline and the same man who killed her parents tracks her down. With the help from a group of legendary warriors and a sun elf prince whom she's been rubbing off her positive influence on, Naima must learn to believe in herself in order to defeat the Great Deceiver of Harmonia and become the princess her parents knew she could be. Perfect for fans of Kelly Barnhill, Soman Chainani, and The Dragon Prince, Madison Ciabattari crafts a breathtaking debut novel about overcoming adversity, belonging, self-discovery, and the life-changing power of kindness.

During the times when kings and Queens still ruled, where holding hands was considered a scandal, Idris Frasier struggles to survive when her life is sucked into a group that calls themselves, The Society. She tries her best not to let their schemes, secrets and ways consume her. However when she finds someone who gives her hope and makes her smile, can she take the chance despite the conspiracies to attain her happiness. The thing about society is they're not to be trusted because everything is a game. ______________ My father once told me a story... "Imagine being mixed with the crowd. Everywhere you turn you see faces. What's worse? They're looking at you with hate, disgust, disappointment. They spit venomous words that slice through you sharper than a knife. They hate you just for existing, for simply breathing the same air as them. It leaves you feeling suffocated but the more you run, trying to find a way out, the faces multiply. You're searching-looking for someone who can look past everything, pick you up and smile at you. You fall on your knees taking the hits. They keep pushing your limits until your back breaks and you're face flat on the ground. That's how it feels, Idris. That's what we've come to know in this cruel world. This-This place we call Society. It isn't a fairytale of happy children playing and people getting along. No. It's far more evil than that. One day you'll understand, if only it doesn't consume us."

To some it was hell, to some it was home. To some, it was a place to catch cruise and live your best life. To some it was a place where you ruled, where you were the main man at the top of the food chain. To some it was a place to hide under a façade. To some it was a place that determined what the future held. But to all, it was a place that brought challenges - physical and emotional. A place that brought self-discovery; a place that exposed the secret and the reality of life. Final year at River Brook Academy had finally come - basically what every secondary school student looked forward to. Suffice it to say, that it wasn't half as normal as the other years they'd spent. It came with whirlwinds, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes...but what happens when Ore Jumai, Ayo Balogun, Bolu Jayeola, Nina Ogbeide and their friends all learn what they truly needed? Would they be able to take it and stand? Or would they leave it and fall to the ground? ****** Started: 24th December, 2020.

COMPLETED ✔️ Ruelle Espinosa is starting over. After a financial scandal sent her ex-husband to prison, she's left raising her young son without any of the comforts of their old life. She'd be lost without Rosario Arriaga, the kind widow across the street. But when Rosa's son comes home, Rue's vow to never trust a man again is put to the test. Guillermo Arriaga left town because he was tired of being "that poor man" who lost his wife and unborn child in a tragic accident. But years have passed and, with his Dad gone and his Mom alone, it's time to go home. Only his mother's not alone. She's taken Ruelle under her wing, and the beautiful and determined single mother awakens something in him he thought was buried forever. As Guillermo and Ruelle are forced to spend more time together, feelings that are more than neighborly grow between them. And with Christmas coming and a child filling both houses with holiday cheer, it becomes nearly impossible not to embrace the joy- and the love- in their lives.

The new world is everything that they said it wouldn't be and it is everything that must be embraced for survival. It is a world of fast pacing technology, outcasts scattered all over, lack of privacy and a land of ruins. The people who embrace it think that it is the new form of tyranny but only a few know that it is a rot that would be their doom. To balance the world on a scale of black to white, a comatose patient of six months must team with an outcast. But, can they put aside the difference in their stands on the new world and face the greater picture or would they be the key to finally breaking the world into two.
