Dinsmore was founded by Alan Hannigan and his wife, Fingula Cedarhill. Hannigan fell in love with his fey wife, and she fell for him in return. However, they were shunned by both of their kinds, so they created a place of their own.
Dinsmore grew into a hub for in-betweeners, half-breed fey, changelings, and humans with magic. It is now a large city bustling with fey and humans alike. Here, the fey are more human, and the humans are more fey. Dinsmore is isolated from the human world, and is unknown and unseen. The fey who live in their own world are known as Other-Siders, and are feared, and avoided.
Hope Nowak and Taylor Peacock are the only two humans in their friend group. Their prickly personalities often keep them at odds, especially as of late, after Hope abandons her friends for a in-betweener boyfriend who broke her heart and spirit.
As for Taylor, she has her own issues. Issues that trigger her own kidnapping and plunge the entire city headfirst into an eternal sleeping curse

Surviving The Dark *Re-write*
This is a rewrite of my already completed book of the same name. You don't need to read that to be able to read this, though there are some differences between them. Seelie and Unseelie Fae have always had a strained relationship. A war between the two begins and thirteen years later Isadora Dawn believes she is the last Seelie Fae being hunted by the Unseelie. Never staying still for long, she runs, always moving between cities, staying away from nature if she can. Until one day. Stranded in a town home to a nature preserve, things that thought were lost are found and a life Isadora thought she could never get again, makes itself known. But with her guard down is Surviving The Dark still possible?Complete![Saving the Fawn Prince [Whole Series]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/384806582-256-k659087.jpg)
Saving the Fawn Prince [Whole Series]
A fae behind a locked door. A girl who wants to be bolder. A dangerous shadow the fae calls Uncle. And a portal to the Wilds. • • • The fae wilds were supposed to be whimsical. An escape from reality. But when Ursula follows August, a fawn prince of the Dawn Court, through a portal, she realizes it's anything but. Every creature thirsts for human flesh and blood--in more ways than one. As the two form a friendship and, soon after, a blossoming romance, they have to fight tooth and nail to keep each other alive, no matter the cost. Assassination attempts, time travel, and and evil hidden within Elitist fae courts will have them tearing down personal ideologies, relationships, and their own physical and mental limits. Saving the Fawn Prince will have your head spinning and your heart aching as both characters learn who they truly are, and what they mean to one another. + + + Updates Wednesdays at Midnight
