Over My Rainbow
Amantha is not ready to be anything other than a wild, tomboy princess, but when tragedy strikes this unlikely royal is called upon to rule a kingdom. Scared to grow up, she runs away from responsibility and finds a new world in an adventure to find out who she really is inside. While Amantha is no princess in distress, she has much to learn about the world of magic and mystery and along with the help of a beautiful boy with a secret past, she uncovers the fairy tale world that lives right outside of her kingdom. "When I was little, I didn't believe that there was magic. I had been taught that no elves, witches, leprechauns, unicorns, harpies, trolls or dragons had ever existed. No one could turn into anything else and everything happened for a reason. Now that I'm older, I realize that even if a tutor told me those things, you can't believe everything people say. I happen to know that magic exists because I have seen it with my own eyes. If you believe that dreams come true, they will. And fairy tales aren't only in story books."Complete![Septerra Inframagus: Claim Of the Invictus. [REWRITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/184185662-256-k797725.jpg)
Septerra Inframagus: Claim Of the Invictus. [REWRITING]
Ischel wakes up with a hole in her heart every morning, knowing she can't leave the house. Most days she wouldn't risk it, and on that summer trip she wished she hadn't. Ischel loses her mother during the trip, and all she spared was a waterproof notebook which is the only thing that connects her to her family, and a half complete word. Overcome with grief, Ischel was sure that someone had staged a well planned kidnap of her mother, and embarked on a journey of finding her. When a hiding stranger completes the word, Ischel is compelled to listen to him and under his guidance sets out to find her real home, Inframagus, hidden under the seas of the real world, her mother's past, and uncover the truth about herself. But when Ischel returns she isn't the only one who's back home. Will the people of her land accept her? Or would she have to prove to them that she belongs, by claiming the chaos into her own hands. (If you're looking for cliffhangers, brother-sister fights, tragedy, affection, friendship, love, action and of course magic, I'm glad to say it's all in here.) This book is completed.
