The destruction of my village. The breaking of balance. The end of the world. I can still remember the vivid images that hide away but play constantly in the back of my head. The family portrait that hung in the living room. The steel boat that gathered dust atop the ledge of the fireplace. Fighting with my brothers about getting the last pancake at breakfast. The happy memories, the good and the bad, all slowly slipping from my grasp.
"I don't remember a time when the world was ever normal. Not anymore."
Danielle Button has had her world turn upside down. When an important artifact is broken, years later, a series of natural disasters hits the land of Eon. And nobody knows why. Danielle, along with those whom she meets on her journey, are on a quest to stop the chain of destruction. With a traitor in their midst, how can they stop anything when they don't even know why the disasters are happening?

I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph.

When he uses the deal for his own advantage, he threatens a girl named Zara, who has had everything but her family taken away. Zara is ordered to kill the beast Regol made a deal with, unbenownst to her that the deal even exists. When her attempt fails, she is left with two choices: to never go back home, or to learn from the beast so she can take back what is hers. She faces dangers on the castle grounds she thought were only stories; magic, creatures that kill a person in a single puff of air, and lastly, the beast, who can barely control the darkness that has buried itself in him for years. The longer she is on the castle grounds, however, the more she realizes everything is more than it seems... ...and that she has a power she could only dream about. **** A retelling of Beauty and the Beast Wonderful cover by @nicegirlsreadbooks Highest rank: #1 in Fantasy #4 in AdventureComplete
