In the world of Talia Jackson, everything is normal. A normal teenage girl, with normal needs, a normal family, a normal school, and a normal life. Something that she's, personally, happy with. But like all of us, she has dreams that she's the main protagonist of a book. What if she was the great heroine who saved a city? The majestic princess who aides the warriors in their quest? Who doesn't wish for something like that?
Sometimes, be careful what you wish for.
When Talia finds that there are people scattered across the globe that are suddenly and mysteriously going into comas, she brushes it off. It has nothing to do with her. But suddenly, Talia becomes one of those victims, and finds that these "accidental comas" weren't accidental at all. She's hurdled into a world where the rest of the comatose victims remain, and she finds that there is a mastermind behind it all. The Book Keeper. But when the handsome Protagonist, Cori Maleck, suddenly finds an interest in her, which is something the Keeper definitely doesn't want happening, what will they do to keep the universes of the bestselling books from crumbling around them?
