In a kingdom where beauty rules and mirrors never lie-Queen Zailah has only ever trusted one thing: her reflection. When a defeated rival offers her a mysterious enchanted mirror, Zailah sees more than a gift-she sees a god-like vision of herself. Beautiful beyond mortal bounds, the mirror becomes her obsession. But as her throne gleams with power, unrest brews in the shadows. Callista, the queen's loyal chambermaid, is torn between duty and love when her forbidden lover begs her to steal the mirror in exchange for a chance at freedom. What begins as a desperate theft ignites a chain of betrayal, unmasking ambition, deception, and a curse foretold by the stars. As illusions shatter and truths claw their way to the surface, the queen spirals into madness, and the price of perfection demands blood. In a world where beauty is power and mirrors never forget-how long can anyone hold onto the face they desire? Perfect for fans of twisted fairytales and dark mythology, Mirror Mirror is a tale of vanity, vengeance, and the terrifying cost of seeing yourself too clearly.

Luckily, she wasn't on a higher floor or she wouldn't have slipped out as quickly as she did. She landed heavily on the path below and shot a panicked glance up on impact. "You stupid girl!" a voice shouted from the window as she staggered to her feet, crying out in pain as her wound flared up at the sudden jolt. "We're coming for you! You can't protect them forever!" Dread filled her bones, but all she did was run, not yet knowing what she'd gotten herself into. . . . Kaely Monsford was a quiet girl, out of school and working a job at a cafe in Australia. Being an orphan, life was bound to be hard, but she made it work. She kept surviving. Until one afternoon, when four seemingly regular guys pranced into her life like they were sent right to her. They were quiet, nervous and extremely suspicious. Of course, Kaely didn't think anything of it until she got ambushed on her way home from work that same night. All of a sudden, Kaely found herself thrust into a life on the run from everyone around her; man, woman and child. Her face became something to be recognized and her new companions didn't help with her problem. So, what's Kaely up to now? And why is she on the run?
