Book Blurb - Young Adult, Coming of Age with a Sci-fi Twist
"Every significant person you meet is connected to you. We knew you before you were born and we'll know you after. We find each other in every lifetime. I guess you could call us soul-mates. All of us form a shell and all of us have to survive."
Chelsea Carrington Ravenport-DeGallas is a psychologist with her own practice. She has overcome a troubled past and at the age of forty is finally able to declare that she is happy, at least as happy as she can be.
One day she wakes up and most of her childhood memories have disappeared. No medical explanation can be found. That night she falls asleep and has a dream. The dream reveals why she keeps losing her memories. Her life is one of many being lived simultaneously in different dimensions. In every other dimension she dies before reaching the age of twenty. After so many lives wasted Chelsea's life force is dying and soon she will fade away.
The only way older Chelsea can save her younger selves is by jumping into one of the alternative dimensions, back to 1990 where her younger self is failing and help her reach the age of twenty. If she survives that long, the cycle of death will be broken.
As young Chelsea moves through the different stages of her life, her soul-mates strengthen and help her. Only one of them knows a secret about Chelsea so shattering that it could change everything in the worlds they inhabit and the higher dimensions beyond.

The Silent Shadows
In the small, isolated town of Briar Hollow, strange occurrences have begun to unsettle the once peaceful community. People are vanishing without a trace, and those who remain speak of eerie figures lurking in the dark, silent as shadows. The townsfolk are gripped by fear, unwilling to venture out after sunset. At the heart of the mystery is the abandoned Hawthorn Manor, a decaying mansion that has stood untouched on the outskirts of town for decades. Rumors swirl about its dark past, involving a family that mysteriously disappeared many years ago. Now, whispers of a curse draw curious outsiders and thrill-seekers, but none return the same-or at all. When 17-year-old Emily Weaver's best friend goes missing after daring to explore the manor, Emily is determined to uncover the truth. Armed with a mix of skepticism and desperation, she gathers a group of unlikely allies-each with their own reasons for seeking answers. Together, they delve into the chilling history of Hawthorn Manor, uncovering secrets buried deep within the town's history. As they piece together the puzzle, they discover that the manor is not just haunted by spirits of the past, but by an ancient, malevolent force that thrives on fear and darkness. The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their journey becomes, as the shadows seem to come alive, watching their every move. In a race against time, Emily and her friends must confront the source of the evil before it consumes them all, forcing them to face their deepest fears and uncover the long-buried secrets that could either save the town-or doom it forever.Complete

It's the spring of 2002, and twenty-year-old college students Sloane Beauvais and Maeve Hamada just want to avoid Briarhaven's suffocating magical elite and the haunted corridors of their campus. But when a friend begged for their help, the girls put aside their doubts and decide to investigate.

Wealthy warlocks pull their children from class, the media swarms the school, and the truth hides beneath layers of gossip and dark magic.
