«Even with all the dust, the flower still outshined the sun» ~~~~ Meet Harida Bick, the product of an unwanted relationship and also Adele Jones, a teenager in another country subjected to same design. When both girls began living together through the insidious work of fate, they realise through their differences and without ardour that they were to both work together, not because of the responsibilities at their work place, but because they may have an history they were not aware of. With a shared goal of unveiling the mansion's secret, a failure to cooperate with each other could only lead to failed dreams, a thought none could fathom. Adele has her step mother aiming for her blood and Harida has her coworker's vying for her place as Adele's "nanny". How then could they achieve their goal when they were both having individual issues, and motives that bothered over morality? *** "CRIMSON MISTS" is a novel that tells the story of two teenage girls through a rusty lens. It highlights the importance of a nurturing family in a girl's life while also detailing on its disadvantage. It was written as if the writer was deliberately contentious-" Nikkyal01 "The story is incredibly engaging and engrossing, and I was invested from the very first page. The characters feel real and complex, and the plot will keep you on the edge of your seat. It's an all-around excellent story that will leave a lasting impression on anyone who reads it-" LMNTrix117 CRIMSON MISTS #Adult-fiction ~Formerly known as Of Ivory and Pachyderma ~ Achievements. 🥇1st in #gatekeeper 28/10/23🏆 🏅5th in #accusations 28/10/23🏆 🏅7th in #vitiligo 28/10/23🏆 🏅10th in #scholarship 16/11/23🏆
