When my mother was alive, magic was the only string that kept her and I together. The silly card tricks, even pulling a rabbit out of the hat. It all connected me to her, pulling me into a seemingly better reality than where I was. But in the blink of an eye, she was gone. That string snapped. Magic was only real if you believed, and at that point, it was just a game to me. All it did was provide false hope.
I forced myself to keep performing for her, deceive others into thinking that what they saw was real. Seeing magic fill others with joy made me question; why. Why would seeing something impossible make someone so happy?
Because seeing is believing. And the closer you look, the less you'll see.

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

Imagine a perfectly imperfect world where everything is just as it appears. It's obviously not perfect but there is a sense of normality to it that is comforting. A year and a half ago you lost your father which was more like a best friend than a parent. Fortunately or maybe unfortunately, a year later your mother finds your stepfather and they get married. You have two loyal friends that are your ride or die that you do virtually everything with. You also have a boyfriend who is way out of your league but out of some miracle decided to date you. Now imagine everything changes and suddenly your shoved into a world of deception, lies, and unspeakable evil. Every day leaves you wondering if your going to make it to tomorrow. This is the world our main character, Haley Dobbins, now lives in after three boys walked into her school and her life changed forever. It was clear from the start that there was something different about them, and it wasn't just the fact that they were more attractive than everybody else. It was almost as if their entire presence screamed danger. If only she had listened to her instincts and not gotten involved with them, she could have avoided this. However what she didn't know was that these boys were in fact the spawn of the devil himself and that the moment they walked through those doors their destinies would be forever entertwined whether she liked it or not. They always say that the beautiful ones are the most dangerous. They fool you with their looks and stab you in the back. The things left to wonder about are, will Haley make it out alive? Is she going to embrace her destiny or fight it? Will there be an adventure? And most importantly will she fall in love with one of the three boys or better yet all of them? All these questions can be answered and what better way to do so then through a story. So curl up next to a fire place with a blanket, hot chocolate, and book in hand because things are about to get interesting.
