Eboni Myers is the steady one-holding her family together while silently falling apart. When her father's mental illness takes a turn for the worse, and her best friend begins spiraling under pressure, Eboni's world starts to unravel.
Then there's Aaron Smith-the charming, popular boy with secrets of his own. What starts as a date to a charity gala turns into something deeper neither of them expected.
As Eboni navigates grief, friendship, and first love, she begins to find her voice-through poetry, faith, and the quiet ways God shows up in the dark.

You are not alone. Healing is possible. There is hope.
Willow never had leaders in her life, so she became her own. She never had anyone to protect her loved ones, so she took on that role, too. Before she knew it, she was leading a universal rebellion against a conjuring sorcerer. She must keep her secret, at whatever cost, or their worlds are lost. The problem is, she can't remember that secret anymore. She can't remember who she can trust. She can't remember her own name. It's up to her now to be brave, to discover who she is, and to save her world in the process. A demented assassin has been trailing her ever since she left her failed safe house, and seven powerful spirits have been let loose to bring her in. But what can an elf as powerless as her do in the face of danger?
