Klaire has been raised in an estate in the Deloph Mountains. She's had a sheltered life, away from the horrors of the rest of the country, under the impression that she is the daughter of a dead lord. On her nineteenth birthday, the truth of her identity revealed to her.
Horrified by the truth, Klaire runs to Briarmare City to help in any way she can, which she does by joining the rebellion harboring in the sewers. But when the rebellion presents Klaire with a plan to take down the crown, Klaire is pushed to the test - after all, to follow through with the plan, Klaire has to murder her brother and father. But of course, nothing goes to plan.

The Metaphorical Key Book II- Forge the Path
(If you haven't read the first book, stop here! Don't spoil yourself, the first book is also on my profile) The death of a friend can break a person, or reshape them. It could be the straw that broke the camel's back, or a motivator, a push in the right direction. Aiden isn't sure where he falls. All he knows is the guilt and the desire for vengeance. Maybe things could've been different if he hadn't made such a disastrous mistake. But then an opportunity arises for Aiden to learn more about his fallen comrade, to get to know him even beyond the grave. And like death, everything that follows could make or break the rebellion. Note: This story contains a subplot featuring a romance between two boys. It's presented as normal. If you have a problem with the lgbt+ community, then this isn't the book - or authour - for you. I'm a member of the community myself. Happy pride month! Spread love, not hate. <3Complete
