When a dirty blue car mows her down outside her local supermarket, she finds herself trapped in the nightmare world of a coma patient.
In this very different world, Maggie rescues an abused and neglected child. But when it looks as though she will finally wake up, she cannot bear the thought of leaving the child behind.

And if it is real, can she help this child?

"I can't do this anymore," he whispers, the weight of his hands leaving my body. "Do what?" I ask, panic rising within seconds. "This," he motions between us. "I can't keep pretending that this is real." My heart drops. He's the only thing keeping me together right now. The one person I look forward to spending my nights with, to dream with. I don't care if he isn't real, or if I'm falling for something I might never experience in my waking life. It's real enough. It's something I have for myself. "Don't do that," I mumble, scared that if I talk any louder he'd disappear. "I don't want to spend my nights with you anymore," his voice breaking. I want to crawl in a hole. "I don't want to make jokes with you, laugh with you, or even hold you." Each word of his is slicing me down to the bone. "Please," I whisper. "I don't want to see you anymore. I don't want to hear your voice anymore," his voice is ringing in my ears now. His body shifts away from mine and I'm reminded of why I'm single. Of why so many dates and exes are left in the past. This was my home. My safe place. But I deluded myself into thinking that this was real. That what I had was something more than a dream, a fantasy. I didn't want to believe that he was fake. But I created him with my own imagination. __ Scarlett Moore. A university student trying to make it past the struggles of life, friends, and a love life labeled hell.

...We were so caught up in the shared moment of care free joy to notice the midnight grey Toyota pickup truck speeding directly towards us. Meters before impact dad finally caught on to what was about to happen, despite it being day the approaching vehicle's headlights blinded us as our cars breaks slammed on, the sound of the tires melting away as the rubber tires scraped against the pavement filled the air and the scent of burning rubber overwhelmed my nostrils, despite our efforts the brakes didn't slow us down, we were to late. There was nothing we could do as we collided head on..." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Attempt two at writing a book lmao, summaries without spoilers are not my strong point but here you go: After a tragic child hood accident Astra is left utterly alone, forcing her to make a massive move across the states to live in Tennessee with her grandmother.

In the beginning Jason was a kind, caring guy who seemed genuinely interested in getting to know Astra, but not everyone is who they seem to be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TW LIST!!!!

25 parts Ongoing Mature
Mirabel Rhodes lived a life in a boarding school that was situated under the ground. Never had she seen a ray of sun or a twinkle of stars but only heard about a world that existed above them in books. Her foster family prepared her and hundreds of girls for a deal that they were never told about. When she turned sixteen, they opened them for sale to the scientists and werewolves for experiments. Afraid, she took the chance that she believed was necessary to save herself and someday them, even if it could end her life. She ran away far and clueless until she accidentally trespassed the territory of Blood Moon pack. Lucky for Mira, the Alpha of the pack was on a run before pack warriors could find and kill her for a rogue. He took her to the packhouse, treated her wounds and gave her space to start a new life. For Alpha Maximus, she should have been a recovery case, but she was more than that. Mateless for a decade, he couldn't understand why he was getting attracted toward a barely adult human. She made him and his wolf feel things that they never experienced before. For two years, he had been in the shade until the night came to answer his confusion. His suspicion turned into reality when he smelt her and found out she was his mate. A human for a mate, but that wasn't the issue, the issue was mating season and him being on heat. Guess what could make her run away from the generous Alpha and turn him into a cruel, closed-off brute? And how would he react when secrets would unveil, truth start to unfold and attraction turn into a feral obsession?

When Daisy gets a chance to appear in a Thriller/Mystery movie, she jumps at the opportunity. She hopes this role will allow her to shake off the Writer's Block she's been having on her own mystery novel lately; as well as visit her cousins in England where the movie is being filmed. However, once the crew begins production, she gets this feeling that she and the other female actresses are being watched. When she hears about a ghost haunting the local bed-and-breakfast she and everyone are staying, the staff informs her that the "Ghost" only shows up the week of Valentine's Day. Daisy, being a skeptic, does not believe in ghosts. Not even when said ghost follows her to her room that first night. Glen has been a ghost for almost two hundred years. Whenever he's not reliving his past mistakes on the night he died, he's at his death site, now a local B'n'B, watching guests mingle and so on. When Glen meets Daisy, he feels a desire for her, the likes of which he never experienced when he was alive. So when she is staying at the Wynfrid House that week, Glen seizes his chance to share those desires with her. Even if it is only in her dreams. *For those that love The Temple of Snakes, this story is about Domino's cousin, who was mentioned in the first chapter. Domino, Mona, and their new families will make guest appearances.* P.S. Some scenes in this book can be interpreted as sexual assault and abuse. Readers be warned.
