"You have been sentenced to life in prison. Your ship will leave tomorrow for the island. Gather your things." When you've been decided a criminal, you're a criminal. There are no ifs, ands, or buts; whether you did the crime or not. Courts and juries are no longer used. If the authorities think you've done it, there's nothing anyone can do about your impending sentence. Being sent to the island is devastating, no matter how long you have to be there. No contact with the outside world, no way to reach your loved ones. It might be set up to appear more humane, more free than prisons of the past, but looks can be deceiving. On the way to the island, the huge prison ship begins to sink. There's no reason for it. Not from a storm, not from an iceberg. The ship just goes down. It's up to the remaining eleven survivors to discover why, and make sure they stay alive while doing so. * * * * * * * * * * Accomplishments: Featured! #37 in Sci-fi #1 in #BreakStereotypes * * * * * * * * * * * The gorgeous (and royalty free!) cover for this book was made by @CosmicGraphics Book started during #NaNoWriMo2016 and will be finished in 2017 Note: This book is published on WATTPAD ONLY!

This is until she finds a strange looking job-application. "Four guys looking for a quiet maid. Tasks include: cleaning, cooking doing the laundry and groceries shopping. Living will be included and expenses will be paid by us." Her mum makes the call for her and only three days later she finds herself at their doorstep.

Most stories start at the beginning. There's an understandable logic to that. This story, however, begins at the end. The Prince is dead, or sleeping. The armor is magic, or haunted. The castle is abandoned, or cursed. The faeries are sleeping, or mourning. Time stands still, but only there.

After Ashton's little brother, Ricky, is found to have a tumor in his brain, it is found that he could die, and a deadly surgery must be performed.

If there's anything worse than death, it's losing one's self. 19 years after the Second Wizarding War, we only managed to hear snippets of Draco Malfoy and his wife, Astoria (nee Greengrass). Eventually, then, the untimely death of the witch. We only knew of a Greengrass family curse that managed to kill her -- but such an ancestral curse goes as far as its involvement with the Malfoys. Let us take you back several years, when the world was so cruel and dark that a single ray of light would die in an instant. The Dark Lord has returned, and only so much can happen in the span of dark times. If I Lose Myself follows the lives of Astoria Greengrass and Draco Malfoy during the return of the Dark Lord, how they came to be and how they conquered their own demons. This is losing themselves, but finding each other in the heart of a war.

"What's your name" she asked the boy, walking closer to him. "Name?" his questioned, wondering what she meant. "What are you called? What did your family call you before... you know?" He looked up at the sky, avoiding the piercing gaze of her eyes, "I don't have a name," his words came out slowly, as if he was testing the waters. She smiled sweetly, "Why don't I call you One. Because you've always been alone." He shrugged and turned away, stepping down from the platform and grabbing his backpack, she stood and watched him, un-moving. "Are you coming?" he called out behind him, and she leapt from the platform, following him into the desolate city.
