As Carter embarks on a globe-trotting race against time, he faces enemies who will stop at nothing, allies with secrets of their own, and a haunting past that threatens to break him.

about defiance // matthew fairchild {2} by thevagabondexpress

{ snap, shatter, and howl pt. ii: being the sequel to mirror shards } Four months on from the Mandikhor attacks, Sydney Herondale is sure she's done. She's fallen in love (with Matthew Fairchild), she's starting to heal, both literally and metaphorically, from the wounds dealt to her in Romania during her travel year, she's got a flat in the City and with the mystery of her grandfather's identity solved, her research project is done and she can rest now. It's over. Or so she tells herself. You see, Sydney is magic. First that blinding rage when she goes into battle, then her strange ability to go ignored when she doesn't want people looking, and now, suddenly, she's starting to see magic, the ebb and flow and current of it like brushstrokes on Van Gogh's canvas. And if her grandfather's whispered, cryptic words are right, somehow all of these are meant to meld together to make...what? Well, she'd better find out, if she wants to make sure the magic is hers to control and hers alone. Not, of course, that anyone's making that easy.

Shattered Reality by cloudynate

Shattered Reality is a haunting, twisted romance where love, lies, and secrets collide-and the line between sanity and madness is more fragile than ever. Lena Dawson doesn't remember the night her parents died. The crash, the screams, the chaos-it all fades into a fog of uncertainty. Now, she's trapped in an asylum, a place where nothing feels real. The doctors say she's making progress, but the more she tries to piece together her past, the more the fragments slip through her fingers. When she meets Elias, a fellow patient with eyes dark enough to hide a thousand secrets, something stirs within her. There's a connection between them, unspoken but undeniable. As Lena grows closer to Elias, she begins to sense that he's hiding something-something that could shatter everything she thought she knew about herself, the accident, and the truth of her own fractured mind. But Elias has a plan. He whispers to Lena about the hospital-their twisted, controlling ways, and the dark secrets lurking behind the sterile walls. He makes her question the doctors, the treatment, and the very reality she's been told to accept. Could the hospital, not the accident, be the true cause of her trauma? Is it the institution that has warped her mind, manipulating her into believing the wrong truths? Elias tells her that only he can help her uncover the hidden truths of the asylum-and her past. In a place where trust is a luxury and reality is ever-shifting, Lena must decide: Can she trust Elias, the one person who makes her feel alive again? Or is he the key to a truth too dark to face? And as the lines between love and deception blur, Lena's fragile grip on reality is pushed to its breaking point. Shattered Reality is a gripping, psychological thriller where every truth feels like a lie, and every lie could be the key to Lena's salvation-or her undoing.
