When seventeen-year-old Natalie Porter finds a treasure chest belonging to her dead mother hidden away in the attic, she follows the clues inside and discovers her mother's death was never actually confirmed. Ten years ago she simply disappeared, leaving behind a mysterious charm necklace. Longing to learn more about her mother, and finding herself fascinated by the odd charm, Natalie claims the necklace.

It quickly becomes apparent she's not the only one interested in her mother's disappearance. When Natalie finds herself pursued she hides, still clutching the charm, and is shocked to find herself transported to a place called Brookland.

 Brookland, once a lush, green land full of magic, has been drained of life and turned into a blackened wasteland by Queen Casias, a woman obsessed only with her own wealth and power. To Natalie's horror, not only does the queen know she's here, but she's been searching for the necklace for the past ten years. And now she knows who has it.

If Natalie doesn't keep the charm out of the queen's grasp, she'll use it to spread her twisted darkness into the human world, destroying everything in her path.

WARNING: Smoking, violence, and killing are included in this story. Not intended for a young audience. It's 2075, and currently 11 billion people walk the surface of this planet. Out of that number, my hometown Chantless takes up 64,730. Out of that, one of them is me. A few years ago, the government finally realized they needed to do something about our population. So they decided to make a game out of it. They call it "Do You Have Talent?" They say it's a game show that puts people's abilities and talents to the test. To see if they are worth keeping alive. So far, I've lost my father, my friend, and my brother to this little "game". And I may be next. But I won't let that happen. For I have a trick up my sleeve in my own game. ----------- Jasmine is a 16-almost-17 year old girl living in Chantless, a poor town located close to the ocean. She seems like an ordinary girl, struggling to survive with little food, contaminated water, and a stub of a hand every day, but she has a secret no one else knows. Unexpectedly, she is chosen to participate in "Do You Have Talent?"; a wicked and ruthless game show created by the government to handle overpopulation. She meets Liz and Bryan, two other contestants who have also lost family members from this heartless monstrosity. Jasmine befriends them, and finally she has something to lose in her life. But when time starts to run out, she will be forced to make a decision; save her friends, or continue to keep her power a secret?

Lira has lived her entire life as an outcast in the palace, under the cruel thumb of her stepmother, Queen Isolde, who rules the kingdom with an iron fist. Raised as an orphaned noble, Lira was told that her parents were mere servants who died when she was young. She has been repeatedly told that she has no power or potential. Her stepmother constantly belittles her, while her stepsister, Anya, delights in tormenting her at every opportunity. What Lira doesn't know is that she's the true heir to the throne-her real parents were the beloved king and queen, murdered by Isolde, their treacherous servant, who has claimed the crown for herself. To ensure Lira never threatens her reign, Isolde has kept her true identity hidden and has suppressed Lira's latent magical abilities, which would make her an unstoppable force. As Lira grows older, strange things begin to happen around her-faint whispers in the wind, flickering lights, and moments where time seems to stop. When a mysterious stranger arrives in the kingdom with knowledge of her past, Lira's world begins to unravel. Slowly, she starts to uncover the truth about her heritage, her powers, and the dark secret that could change the fate of the kingdom. But as she inches closer to discovering the truth, Isolde tightens her grip on the throne, sending her loyal followers to silence Lira forever. With her magic awakening and enemies closing in, Lira must decide whether to fight for her rightful place as queen-or let the darkness consume her before she ever has a chance to reclaim the crown.
