There's something wrong with Lilith Ayres. --- Lilith Ayres has become used to the constant stares, whispering, and glares, as she walks past. Loneliness has become the only thing she knows. So when she is sent to a new school on the other side of town, she hopes that maybe not everyone will hate her there. But changing her name doesn't change her identity, and it doesn't change the dark, impious secrets her family is hiding, that everyone seems to know about but her. She soon realizes that maybe some secrets are best kept concealed. Some secrets can release the horror within. © Olivia Clarke 2018 --- *WARNING* This book contains scenes inappropriate for readers younger than the age of sixteen. 16+ (Scenes of gore, distress, and violence.

Dear Reader, It hadn't hit me right away, many things, but especially the fact that I was about to turn twenty years old. It was as if it was just yesterday that I was learning how to make a peanut butter sandwiches, tie my shoes, and draw endlessly with fat crayons--which I thoroughly believed to be a masterpiece. It had to be yesterday, when I was befriending any new person that I met with a dazzling smile. No, those were the years that I was numb--masked from the world and blissfully unaware of the dangers and lingering dark edges of the Chicago city. Life moves fast; terrifyingly fast for some, especially those who try and anchor down each and every day of their existence. For others, it moves drearily slow. I use to be numb, I use to be unaware of the shadows deep within the corners of the earth, the watchful figures around me. I use to draw scribbles, struggle to tie my shoes, and fail at doing the simple things, like tying shoes. I use to make friends with anyone I met and kept that friendship over a promise. I use to do a lot of things, actually. But that was when life was a whole lot simpler, safer, and perfect. That was before I knew about Death. That was before he became my frenemy. Forever and always, Faith Williams *** MY WRITING PAGE! Please join! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kat-aka-katrocks247-from-Wattpad/208740202517075

They say Stelton Jack was a man cursed by love. Some claim he was bewitched by Seline Moore, the girl accused of witchcraft. Others believe he made a deal with the Devil himself-trading his soul to save her from burning at the stake. In present-day Salem, Sallie Moore wants nothing more than to disappear into the background. After the death of her parents, she returns to her family's dusty old bookstore, trying to outrun the strange legacy tied to her name. The townspeople still whisper about the Moore bloodline. About ghosts. About curses. Sallie never believed in any of it. Until the night she steps into the abandoned pumpkin patch... and wakes something ancient. Now, she's being followed by a ghost who calls himself Jack Holloway. A man with heartbreak in his eyes and magic in his touch. He claims Sallie is the reincarnation of Selene-that they've lived this story before. That every 125 years, she's reborn... and someone hunts her down to steal her life and cheat death. This time, Sallie refuses to die for a love she doesn't remember. But the more time she spends with Jack, the harder it is to separate her memories from Selene's-and the harder it is to tell where her heart ends and history begins. To survive, Sallie must confront the truth buried beneath centuries of folklore and forgotten graves. With Jack at her side, she must unravel who betrayed her all those years ago-and who still wants her dead in this life. Because the story of Stelton Jack didn't end in fire. But this time, it may end in blood.
