❝SO GIVE ME HOPE IN THE DARKNESS THAT I WILL SEE THE LIGHT❞ { ERIC COULTER LOVE STORY }

"Am I so terrible that you won't even look at me?" Eric then stared at Venus and he inhaled deeply as he cupped her warm face with his hands, closing his eyes knowing what he had to do next. He leaned his forehead onto hers and took in a breath of her scent, that scent he had come to love. "No...But I am for doing this." He whispered to her and she furrowed her brows as he looked back at her with tearful eyes. Eric then placed his hands on her shoulders and pushed her back. Venus gasped as she falls over the building and Eric looked at her as she falls to nearer to the ground reaching her death. Eric had killed the girl he had come to love.

At the Choosing Ceremony four years ago Tobias Eaton left more than an abusive father behind; he also left his younger sister. Now it's time for the Choosing Ceremony again, where Crystal Eaton's future awaits. She decides to go to find her brother, and find out what her new life may have in store for her. Is she prepared for what awaits her there, though? After getting an uncomfortable vibe from Tori, the one who administered the test, she's not sure what to think anymore. After arriving at Dauntless, it's not quite what she thought it was going to be. She's not sure which is worse: the tough initiation process, or the tough Dauntless leader, Eric, who has made it a personal mission of his to make this as hard as possible for her.

Things were finally going her way: her brother was marrying her best friend, she had a group of stable people in her life, her work was helping people across the factions, and she got Eric back. What could go wrong? How about her mother showing up, after Crystal believed her to be dead for nearly 8 long years? Yeah, that's bound to have nasty consequences that could royally screw her life up. Especially when her mother is the leader of the group of people who set fire to a school and nearly killed Eric, not to mention kidnapped and tortured her. There's only one way to solve this problem, and it's not going to be pretty.

BOOK 1 of 2 All Vanessa Eaton had ever wanted was to start over. Most of all, she wanted to be free. When the opportunity to rid herself of her abusive father arises, Vanessa decides to throw caution to the wind and grab fate by its horns. Her choices lead her to Dauntless and she holds onto hope that her new faction would give her the strength she needed. Just when she thinks she has finally caught a break, life throws her a curveball. Not only is she brought face-to-face with her long lost brother, who was nothing like she'd remembered, but a certain blue-eyed leader seems to have his sights set on her. Now, Vanessa is faced with a new set of challenges and she must decide who to trust...one wrong move and she might just end up at the bottom of the Chasm.

BOOK 2 of 2 It felt like it's been months since she last saw him. She didn't even know if he was dead or alive. And all Vanessa could only hope he was. Living without him was hard, but that was the only thing she could do for him. Will she ever see him again? Or will she find someone else she could love as much as she did him? Will people leave her now, when she's most vulnerable? Who will leave and who will stay?

Having finally escaped her personal nightmare at Amity, Lia has chosen Dauntless as her faction not knowing what awaits her. She soon catches the interest of a leader, an instructor and an initiate. **Contains mature themes such as sexual content, cussing, domestic violence, blood and death. **Faction system and choosing ceremony has been aged up. Choosing ceremony now happens at 21. **Not canon compliant.
