What if there is a whole world happening around you that you simply cannot see, touch, or feel?
There are lives as beautifully intricate and tragically sad that you know nothing about. For Ruby Dolec and every other person on Hubner Drive, this is true on an entirely different level. After the loss of the Havard family bloodline, the magic that stands between two dimensions starts to fail. As Ruby starts to uncover the secrets of Hubner Drive, she starts to understand how thin the wall between realities was all along. But is this posing a greater threat or blessing for life as we know it?
To think that none of this would have happened if Ruby Dolec hadn't broken Havard's law: never protrude to the spirits by the creek...

IMPORTANT: Once in a Lifetime: Part 1 is now officially published on Amazon! Please read the "READ THIS FIRST" chapter for more information and future updates. They say some loves only happen once. For Ody and Mano, that once changes everything. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen. And losing someone again isn't a risk he's willing to take. Ody is the opposite. Bright, extroverted, charming, and painfully sincere, he notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. For someone like Mano, that kind of softness is dangerous. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. What starts as tension becomes something neither of them can name, and soon, something they can't stop. But between secrets, buried trauma, and a world that won't let them exist without consequences, wanting each other comes at a cost. One keeps pushing him away. The other keeps reaching past every warning sign. Together, they burn. But when everything catches fire, love may not be enough to save them.Complete![The Dreamers [ONC2020] | ✓](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/213148040-256-k20809.jpg)

Give me shelter
Have you ever felt so lonely you believed there was nothing left for you? Stashed away, merely forgotten. I mean you could cry and cry, yet no one would hear you. At least no one you truly once loved. Being yourself can be detrimental to others happiness, and so you down play who you are.

Could you find your way out of the darkness? Look Closer is one of my favourite quotes and so I'll use it as a guide to understanding the complex characters you're about to meet.Complete
