If you're triggered by something sinister, do you seek its meaning, or do you leave it alone? *** Small-town barista and occasional stray animal rescuer Jessamine Spencer never would have guessed that a video about missing paranormal show-host Amy LaRoya would rile her up so badly, to the point of having nightmarish visions of the house where Amy was last seen, and an ominous sense that she'd been there before. But when Amy's fellow paranormal host Avery Boomer turns up at Jessamine's coffee-shop asking questions, he discovers that Jessamine is in fact linked to Amy--because she WAS at the mystical house Amy was last seen at. The problem is, Jessamine doesn't recall any of the circumstances that led her to be there, nor how she escaped. And Avery needs to locate Amy, because her final footage seems to imply something was after her and might have gotten to her; something clearly supernatural in nature. If Avery convinces Jessamine to help him, will she recover enough of her memories to navigate to this mystery house, and hopefully find Amy there? Or is there more hiding in the forest--forces and prophesies that Avery and Jessamine will never understand? *** Join me as I share the new version of the first novel I ever *fully* wrote! Trigger warning for language, violence, sexual situations, mentions of suicide, possession, jump-scares, and overall disturbing stuff. Enjoy ♥

Prepare for a journey to a new literary universe with fantasy, scifi, steampunk, and adventure rolled into one. The land of Ruin is a brutal, harsh, and unforgiving desert with little water and less kindness. Do not mistake its brutality for lack of life though. Thousands of traders and people from all walks travel its vast reaches looking to make their fortune in the trade of "black crystal" - the mineral that fuels everything from airships, to landships, to currency itself. There is even rumor of its awakened power properties. Jim is just such a trader and frankly, he isn't very good at it. But, things are about to change for him. Ever the introverted hermit, he's about to be thrust into a world of intrigue, magic, and colorful people. Ruin gives few second chances. Don't waste yours. Note to the reader: This is not marked mature because any mention of sexual content is extremely brief and only hinted at. My writing typically contains minimal bad language too. However, there are some places where it is used. I would land this book somewhere around PG13. This is an ongoing series of novels. Book 1 is complete and available for purchase at multiple retailers. See https://www.brandonberryhill.com/ for all links.
