"But his light had dimmed. Whatever fire that once limned his soul had guttered and fled. Whatever internal struggles he had faced, he had lost. He wore defeat like a mantle." If you have ever loved and lost... If you have ever tried and failed... If you have ever felt alone, invisible, or worthless... If you have ever fought depression and anxiety... If you have ever lost sight of your dreams, or pushed them so far away that they cannot hurt you anymore, this story is the story of you. This is the story of a young man who had convinced himself that he had given up. Fischer Solace, jobless after flunking out of college, joins Legacy Gold, a company that sells in-game gold and merchandise for real money, not recognizing the shackles as he gratefully puts them on. He had once been called bright, even brilliant, by those who knew him. Had you asked five years ago if he would ever end up where he was today, the smallest cog in a machine no one controlled, not a single person would have seen it as a possibility.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
