***Wattpad Picks: Up And Coming***
The magical story of Connor DeGray and his experience with Cirque Periculum.
Connor the Con has found it progressively harder to survive in the small town of Greenview, Kansas. There was no way he was going to go back to that Orphanage for Deprived Boys, and that's where the entire town wants him.
When he discovers a traveling circus due to arrive in town that week, he hatches an escape plan that involved hijacking the circus and hopefully finding his parents. He discovers there is much more to this circus, and himself, than he had first expected. Join Connor as he travels with a circus that is more than meets the eye, and ultimately finds himself as the central performer to a mystery he must unravel before it's too late.

As their passionate affair ignites against the backdrop of the Parisian art world, Harper finds herself intoxicated by Zoe's devotion, her intensity, and the doors she effortlessly opens.
