Being the difference I want to see in the world.
As sad as it may be, we live in a world where the rich are getting richer, and the poor live in worse conditions every day. A world where people have to live behind masks and hide who they truly are, just to be accepted into this corrupted society. A world where everyone primarily thinks of himself and not about what he could to help his brother in need? Dive into my vision, be bold enough to read these chapters, and accept that you may have also been committing these mistakes that corrupt our society and together, let us grow into better versions of ourselves and begin to wonder; what if this had happened to me? How would I have reacted? What can I do to change my community? What if I decide to manifest my dreams every day instead of wishing they would happen? Every single part of this will be entirely unique but all interconnected by one subject, "the human nature". Only together can we change the world, don't be so lazy to think that it is the government's job to do so; take your responsibilities and act to see a change.Lengkap
Firewall (Book 1: The Fall)
My mind was taken from me. I was used to kill. I don't know how many I killed nor do I want to. All I know is I'm a walking miracle. My chip was removed and I woke up. Now, I'm ready to fight. ~~~ Phantom has seized control of Haven. By hacking the micro chips implanted in nearly every citizen, the terrorist group stripped humanity of its free will. Those under their strings are called the Taken. Raven was one of them. When Raven awakens with her chip removed, she meets Firewall Sector Seven, a band of dangerous yet hilarious operatives waging a desperate war against Phantom. Leading them is Logan, the elusive hacker who saved her life. Calm, unreadable, and impossibly skilled, he conceals his identity and emotions behind an impenetrable mask. As Logan becomes Raven's mentor and protector, an unexplainable attraction grows between them. Yet every glimpse beneath his composed exterior reveals a young man burdened by secrets he cannot afford to share. As Raven pieces together her fractured past, she is forced to confront a devastating truth: her memories cannot be trusted. With Phantom closing in, she must decide whether to accept the life written for her, or fight to reclaim the one that was stolen. Expect: A mysterious romance filled with tension. Comedic, multifaceted side characters with unforgettable POVs. Explosive action, mind blowing twists, and cinematic fight scenes. Rated M for graphic violence, suicide, strong language, and sexual abuse (non-graphic).
