It’s a long way from the grit of New York City to the stark beauty of Nova Scotia, and many years separate Blue Whitley’s only two journeys between them. One occurred at five years old, when his mother stole him away from the hinterlands of Canada. Now, twenty-five years later, he’s returning to sell a house left to him by a grandmother he barely remembers.

He plans the trip as a week of leisure, joined by his best friend, Elisa; her stalwart husband, Jason; and Gabe, Blue’s admiring young co-worker. Idyllic Starling Cove, however, is not your typical vacation spot.

Blue senses secrets withheld. Strange whispers on the wind welcome him home, pulling him toward the dense, dark woods. After a shocking discovery, life as he knows it falls apart, and the truth about Starling Cove begins to emerge...

The Glittering World is my debut novel, and will be released worldwide on February 10, 2015 by Gallery/Simon and Schuster. As a Wattpad exclusive, I'll be posting Part One of the book—over 25,000 words—leading up to the publication date. I very much hope you enjoy what you read!Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Steady Ground | ✔ oleh ToriHope-

He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.

Blood and Honor oleh zoehart394

I always thought my life was perfect. A rising ballerina. A penthouse overlooking New York. A powerful, wealthy father, and Kayce. My brother, my best friend. But perfection was an illusion. It started with a stranger in the shadows. A man who watched me from across the street, vanishing the moment I looked his way. Something about him felt familiar, like fate pulling us together. And then the cracks began to show. A masquerade ball cloaked in secrets. Whispers of betrayal. My brother's sudden disappearance, and the devastating truth that shattered everything I thought I knew. Now, nothing was safe. Not my family. Not the world I trusted. Not even my heart. There were secrets buried beneath the glittering surface of my life. And that mysterious man in the shadows? He may be the only one who could help me uncover the truth, or destroy me completely. In a world ruled by blood and honor, trust is the deadliest choice of all.

As Nora delves deeper into the hidden truths of her heritage, she discovers secrets far larger and darker than she ever anticipated. Now, she stands at a crossroads: should she risk everything to uncover the legacy her mother tried to protect, or focus on stopping Devland before he shatters her fragile new bond with her half-sister? In this gripping tale of magic, betrayal, and self-discovery, Nora must choose between the past and the future-between the life she was destined for and the one she's fighting to build.
