Ava was raised in a small, secluded town in Pennsylvania, abused physically and sexually by her step father. She survives by escaping into fantasies that only exist in her mind, out of fear of confronting her own inner demons.
One night, she does something that she can never take back and finds herself a kingdom that she never knew existed. This time it's not a dream. Then she meets Daniel, who's so different from what she's used to. He's realistic, honest, level headed, but just like her, misunderstood.
The journey they take to save a life brings her closer to anyone than she's ever been, especially herself. As she pours the last of her innocence to a boy with a damaged heart and reckless soul, will she ever rise above the pains of her childhood, or continue to run away from herself?

Because I Love You✔️
They say love conquers all. His shattered the fabric of reality and began a world-altering change that would eventually shift the concept of life and death forever. 🌺💛👑💛🌺 Phil wasn't exactly the best at being the boy-next-door. Shy, clumsy, and highly insecure with his life as a whole - he was the complete opposite of his girlfriend, a bubbly nerd named Ella. But like Yin and Yang, the two of them were inseparable... at least, until the night of Ella's sixteenth birthday, when she died in his arms after an unexpected shooting. Traumatized and blinded by grief, Phil took his own life only three months later on his seventeenth birthday, but instead of finding his much-expected peace in the afterlife, he somehow ended up on a parallel world called Atlas as an almost monstrous-looking version of himself. Trapped in the kingdom of Aerika, a bizarre place chock full of things like magic, elves, orcs, demons, faeries, squirrel-riding women, assassins, a tyrannical hierarchy, and everything else under the sun, he finds himself very confused and depressed. But before he can begin to make sense of anything, he's captured and caged like an animal by a ruthless girl who looks and sounds exactly like his late girlfriend. Is this his own, personal hell? Or is it a second chance? And if it is a second chance... does he even want to take it? (Highest Ranking - #8 in Fantasy!!!!! ❤) (TRAILER INSIDE) Copyright © by Aaron Ledgers.
