The beautiful island kingdoms of the Detache Ocean have been flourishing for eight hundred and seventy years. Ari and Aveline, two lawless pirates, have been happily robbing every one of them for about five. But Lyla Quincy, the daughter of the Grand Duchess of Apreuna, has been stuck in her own kingdom for almost two decades - and she wants out. She's about to get her chance. Young princes and princesses all over the kingdoms are vanishing in the night, and no one can figure out where they have gone. When the Queen of Apreuna asks notorious thieves Ari and Aveline for help, everyone is shocked. And Lyla wants to find the royals too- but when she tags along on an adventure with a pirate gang of criminals, she might uncover more secrets than she bargained for. **** Adventure, Fantasy, Romance ❤️ cover by the amazingly talented @RadharaniBhattacarya

This is a journey of two meta-humans: Seraphine Grove who attends the Hero Prep School and Kal Knox who attends the Villain Academy. They both have the ability to channel electricity to create lightning, which is known as Electrokinesis. Kal's commitment to his father leads him to Sera on a co-op mission, while Sera's past leads her to Kal. This story is paradoxical, but it also breaks boundaries of cliches discussed in many other love stories. I may use the term "Hero" and "Villain" , but I hope you recognize that these titles are subjective to whose story you are reading. The only difference between them is the beholder's perception. There's light. There's dark. There's light in dark and vice versa. Nothing is truly black and white. Hell, nothing is just subjective to colors. Through this collection of excerpts, I play with the idea of biases, constantly changing the focal point. Shedding light, or illuminating shadows. Maybe the Hero makes the wrongs choices for the right reason, or maybe the Villain grasps on to the frayed edges of his morality too tightly. Although I focus on these characters falling in love, I also draw light to both of them falling in love with being alive. I hope you too, fall in love with being alive. There's no better way to live then through the thousands of characters embedded in the pages of a great novel. I wish for you to see your flaws (and strengths) in them. I guess I've succeeded if you think that you would have loved her, or fallen for him.
