Psychosis - a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
Jaina Falvey is not your average teenager. She's long disciplined herself to keep her mind fixed on the task at hand and succeeds extremely well at it, juggling school, an overpaying job, and extracurricular activities all with excellent performance.
Something else has happened to Jaina however that few people know about, and that is the tragic death of her twin sister that she witnessed, the mysterious death of her father when she was four, and her diagnosis of post traumatic stress disorder after remembering strange traumatic events from her early childhood.
With all this on her plate, Jaina has little time to worry about the normal teen drama, guys, and serious relationships except for the one good boyfriend she has. However, when her strange coworker begins playing with her, flirting with her, and touching her, she can't help but be concerned.
But feelings change from concerned to pure panicked when he kidnaps her and murders her boyfriend before her very eyes one late night...or so she thought? The next thing she knows, Jaina is waking up in the school parking lot and her boyfriend is alive. Now, she can't seem to stop jumping from scenario to scenario and can't tell which is dream and which is reality, something her psychiatrist diagnoses her with as psychosis.
And as life goes on, life gets stranger, as Jaina finds herself going from living the life of a teenage girl working a part time job in high school, to being kidnapped, to being sent to a mental hospital, to being forced into servitude. Is this all really just psychosis? And if so...
Which is the dream and which is reality?
Because her feelings are out of control and she begins to find herself falling in love with a rich criminal, kidnapper, and murderer. But is even he for real? Or is it all just a dream?

"I wanted to te-" His eyes began to water and as a single tear fell he looked at me and said "but what if you've been lying for so long you don't know how to tell the truth?" "I have and so will you." He shook his head, shut his eyes, and leaned his forehead against the glass. "And here I was thinking you would admit that you don't tell the truth either." I gripped the telephone as my knuckles turned white. "What do you mean?" "Come on Zoey I've seen you sneaking around acting like you're busy. You're hiding something and you won't tell me."

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete

Normally it would soothe me, but the fact I had been sitting here almost all day now turned the quiet afternoon silence into fuel for my fire. I look over at Jade who had barely moved at all. I wish I could protect her. She came back for me even though I told her not to. There's not realy anything I can do though. Maybe I could make some kind of deal?

The Tether : Tale of a Restless Soul
Amanda Fulwood has always felt out of place. Since she can remember, she was never capable of distinguishing the real from the fake, her mind constantly questioning whether she lived what she remembered or if it was just an outstanding dream.

It only got worse over the years, her visions turning more and more vivid, constantly wandering further away from this realm every time. Living in a small town has its perks, especially when you're the mayor's daughter, but it also comes with a handful of disadvantages.

Once Pandora's box has been opened, there's no closing it back. Among all the questions Amanda has, the only one that is hers to answer is, "Can she handle it?" Read the book and find outπ

The Guy from the Insane Asylum
A supernatural romance with twisted pasts, magic, psychics, and murder. And yeah, high school drama. "Pretty much a Mr. Badboy & Girl story but with literal magic and witches involved." - The Author of This Book ~ When Bethany Harlow's parents force her to volunteer at their local Dared Insane Asylum, she's forced to lie to all her friends about her after-school whereabouts. Zachary Jaxston was the reason she didn't want anyone to know where she spent her free time. He was the talk of the town four years ago, and she knew that if her volunteering were to be public news, his popularity would rise again. Everyone from her high school would mock her for hanging out with The Mother Murdered & Hallucinator. But he wasn't as crazy as he made people believe. Bethany was determined to find out the real reason Zachary was admitted into a mental institution. He didn't seem like a guy who could kill, especially not his own mother. However, her determination led her straight into the discovery of Zachary's supernatural abilities-that could in fact potentially hurt Bethany. But when she found out Zach was a male witch, a wizard, a portal to all things supernatural opened in her mind. She even made a few discoveries about herself and her family, the Harlow's. Slowly, together, they explore all the possibilities of magic. But when Bethany has a freak accident and almost kills a guy, their whole world flips upside down. Now, Bethany, Zach, and the rest of the Harlow family have to figure out a way to escape the dark and save Bethany. Will they be able to do it before it's too late? Or will Bethany become on of the endarkened? ~ βYou should be scared of me.β βI know. But I'm not.β βI could hurt you.β βBut you won't.β βYou don't know that.β βBut . . .
