A WATTPAD FEATURED STORY ❝Love pays no attention to color❞ Jasmine Karesh never thought she'd spend her senior year of high school struggling to accept her Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder diagnosis, a disease that forbids her from forgetting the school shooting that led to her uncle's murder. She never expected that her parents would turn on her either, not when she was finally coming to terms with her blood-stained past. The last thing she needs is for an anonymous letter to fall out of her locker, penned by a vigilante who knows her history much too well and is more than willing to use it against her. It's the only way they can avenge the other life lost during the tragedy- the shooter's. Jasmine must identify her threatener before they pick off the remaining survivors of the shooting, one by one. As she tries to stop them, she is faced with a crippling secret- she has fallen for her childhood best friend, a boy that goes against everything her family stands for.

Parker Elway is having dreams. Strange dreams; waking dreams; dreams in which she opens her eyes in the darkness to find herself paralyzed and surrounded by shadows from her deepest nightmares. The doctors call it sleep paralysis. But is it really so simple? As the waking terrors worsen and strange people begin to appear in town, Parker sets out to uncover the truth. And when she digs up a trove of hidden secrets and a dark past that everyone seems all too eager to forget, she begins to wonder: is her terrifying dream world merely the result of a sleep disorder? Or is it reality? [National Silver Medal Winner in the 2014 Scholastic Art and Writing Awards]
