Surviving unforeseen events, Sophie unearths facets of her own soul previously concealed. How will she navigate the horrors without tipping off the edge? Returning to her hometown, there may be just the right person to gain Sophie's interest-one with the potential to unravel the intricate tapestry of Sophie Swan's hidden life. ------------- AU-ISH. {Warning!} This book was used as practice for my writing, so the writing gets better as the story progresses. The first few chapters are unedited, therefore cringey and full of typos. Disclaimer! The Twilight Saga does not belong to me! My original characters belong to me like Sophie. Other Characters that you do not recognize belongs to me, characters you do recognize belongs to Stephenie Meyer. All of Twilight Saga belongs to Stephenie Meyer. {Warning!} Excessive amount of blood, gore, and death with explicit detail. Mature scenes will come up, and it is kind of AUish.
