Perrie realized there was no hope that anyone was coming to save her. After weeks of long periods of solitary confinement, being drugged at parties, and abuse, she had lost hope of being saved. The fame-diggers had won, this time the villain had won. She lay on her cot, in a daze, her body aching in pain, and her stomach numb from hunger. Was this how she was going to live out her remaining days of her slowly perishing life? ~ perrie edwards au ~ ‍ Anyone who knows me from Instagram should know that: this book has no humor and is pretty dark, a contrast to what I post on Instagram.

Intoxicated. Hollow. Insane. Fake. Charming. Dangerous. Words that sum up Jade Thirlwall, child of a drug addicted ex-rocker. Perrie Edwards is a good puppet. She does what they tell her to - act, smile, talk, lipsync - whatever it takes to pull in money. She's not going to go back to her old life again. Curiosity kills the cat. But Perrie's perplexed by Jade, curious about the girl that possibly hides behind the emotionless exterior, curious if she can save a broken soul. What she doesn't know is, maybe some people just don't have souls. Maybe they're just empty inside. Or maybe...they need something, someone, to ignite the fire inside them and bring them back to life. Smoke and Mirrors ©skepticynicism 2016
