In today's society, mental illnesses are romanticised and taken lightly. Mental illnesses aren't beautiful. They are monsters that destroy lives. We shouldn't be promoting them to impressionable teenagers on the internet or making jokes on them. They should be taken just as serious as a physical illness. Just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it's not there...right? Nina Cervantes looks like your average, happy, teenage girl... But she's fighting a battle no one knows about. With her family oblivious to her sufferings and her lack of friendships at school, Nina is trying her hardest to fight off the demons inside her head. People believe that when struggling with a mental disorder, you have people who love and care about you surrounded by you to help your recovery. But this isn't the case with Nina, she is passing by the day's wishing every second of her life away and the worst part is.... She has no one there to tell her that "it is ok not to be ok" ****************************** Authors note: Not in any way or form is this book a judgement of mental illnesses or people who suffer with them, I am just trying to spread more awareness of the stigma and hopefully help those that are alone while coping with a mental health problem. If you are struggling with any form of mental illness or disorder and are alone, please talk about it. Trust me, it helps. Looking for a reason to hold on? Here it is. {The Stardust Project Series Book 1}

*SEQUEL TO THE 12 ELEMENTALS* #623 in Fantasy Kicked out of her kingdom by Darkness, how does Melody rebuild her life and take back her crown? * Okay, you've gotten a preview of my life. I'm a princess of a mythical land called Enchantment. We support Light in it's long lasting battle against Darkness and recently things have taken a turn for the worse. Laufeia, a big time immortal and servant of Dark beings has thrown me and my friends out of our own castle. Now we are on the run from being captured by her minions. I've seen her do horrible acts, she has taken lives of those more powerful than herself. How though? Maybe she is more evil than I anticipated. Either way, I'm in a slump. My people have their backs turned, my friends expect this great hero out of me, but I never even graduated high school! So, not only do I have to retake my title, prove I'm a badass and that I care for the Enchantains but then there's my Beloved, Reason. Hey, he's hot, leave me alone. Okay, back to my royal problems. In my journey to earn my princess status back, I have to parade around my land. And because of that I meet some weird creatures- the kind that you read about. To defend Light I have to resist Darkness. Not as easy as it sounds. * Fall deeper into the song of Enchantment, slip underneath it's sweet waves. This mystical planet has creatures we only hear of in stories. Melody may be a little dead inside but that won't stop the Light that lives within her. Follow Mel as she discovers not only herself, but those around her.
