'My brother disappeared when he was 15. When he came back, an hour later, his face was lit up. Bright. Exhilarating, he had breathed. Then they had come to our house. Taken him. They said he was an affront to mankind. Unnatural. They said he was dangerous to us and he needed to be taken. At first I didn't understand; now I do.' Laura thinks she is one of the utmost ordinary of people. She is 17, the twin sister of Lucas. Lucas was taken but she was not. Her life alone is pretty ordinary. Everyday is an almost perfect repeat of the day before. High school, home, homework, eat, bed. On vacation she lounged at home and did pretty much nothing. Her family don't go anywhere much with her mother's condition and her father being a workaholic. Well, it turns out she isn't normal. On a short dark day, Laura felt something buzz within her. She was unprepared for any of it. It took her by surprise when she burst. * * * A THRILLING SCI-FI BOOK THAT WILL CANE YOUR HEART LURCH WITH ADRENALINE.

The only thing more insane than the absurdity known as augmentations are the people that have them. Regulating Miracles showcases its eccentric cast of super-powered characters as they kill, love, and try to somehow get their work finished on time. Emelia Emin attempts to escape defeat while avoiding the two assassins after her life and the one after her heart. Jaxon Charlotte tries his hardest to become a hero of justice, but a knife hoarding sociopath decides to crush his ideals. After watching a family member get kidnapped, Oliver Oldridge, whose life was built on secrets, is forced to confront a clinically depressed mind reader. Kamiya Kanon has traveled the world hunting a man who fancies himself a god, only to find herself embroiled in the taboo. A woman who can't stop calling herself Sara is used to coming out on top, but after a series of botched jobs she consults with a one-eyed information broker about love. A genetically engineered weapon going by Hana struggles to balance her professional and personal responsibilities. With no hope of survival, Alec Alexander decides to rely on the one thing he hates most of all: lies. These seemingly unrelated stories intertwine and converge to give four severed body parts, two romantic kisses, one hospital visit, and three unpredictable days in the city of Velstand. *I am currently releasing an edited version on RoyalRoad.com*
