On November 3rd, 2006, an anomaly occurred. An incidence so rare, the world has never witnessed such a thing. On that peculiar night, a star fell, and along with it, so did a living, breathing boy. Rosie Cardel was only seven the night the star boy fell onto her family's farm. Her parents being asleep at the hour, didn't realize their daughter left the house in the middle of the night to see what it was that fell out of the sky. It was then, that Rosie met Icah, the alien boy who lived in the fallen star. He was a kind boy, he looked human, but he wasn't human. Icah, having no idea what to do after his star fell, decided to do exactly what his elders taught him if he ever found himself stranded on Earth. He linked himself, all of himself, his heart, and breath, and thoughts, and body to Rosie. Allowing him to live within her body, her mind, and the brink of her soul. Rosie, ecstatic at first that she has a new friend that will never leave her side, soon realizes as she gets older, that having an unearthly being dwelling inside you is dangerous, and not the marvel she thought it was, especially when the government gets involved.

His voice lowered teasingly, and suddenly he was much closer, hands braced against the wall beside her, toned arms pinning her in. Meredith felt her throat dry up instantly. "Which one?"

"At first, it was love I wanted. In the end, I wanted myself back." Can you construct an identity out of lies? Something big happened in Olivia's life. Something big and unspoken that ripped and changed everything in her life. Struck with an unbearable truth, Olivia becomes a liar. It's her way of coping, her way of getting what she wants when she could not-imaginary worlds in her wide mind are just a form of it. But as coping mechanisms goes, lies only bring Olivia as far as it does. Driven to a point of no return, Olivia plans her own death as an accident, a last ditch plan to escape her own life that's a cage-and not cause the feelings of guilt in her friend, Richard for her death. But before her plan came aboard, she was brought to a therapist, Diana Jones. It seems like nothing would change, except this time, Diana gives her a pen and a journal and tells her to be honest, to write everything that she can't say to anybody-even to her, a professional clinician. Olivia chooses to do it for one reason: she has nothing left to lose and if she wants to, she can burn them so that nobody sees them before she leaves the world. What she never realizes that the first step to healing is to be honest. Delving into a mind that blurs the line between truths and lies, the line between reality and fantasy, this is a story about a woman who kept silent about her losses and end up losing more than she ever wanted. This is the story about silence and how it kills someone gradually till they are left with nothing, but remains of who they are. ------------------------- This is book two, but ultimately, all books can be read as a standalone.

"Don't jump, wait!" I cried as the boy stepped off of the ledge. I screamed and ran to the edge, leaning over it tediously. "You need to chill," someone said from above me. I squeaked and jumped backwards-thankfully. "B-But you jumped," I stuttered as I looked up at the boy who was hovering above me. "B-But," he mocked me, "I'm already dead, sweetheart." ------ Amelia Collins, social worker and quite frankly, possibly the nicest person you'll ever meet - living, or dead.
