Forcing her head up sends pain ricocheting down her spine. Her vision swims, bleeds into shadows-until a thick, unmistakable scent coils into her nostrils. When the blur finally sharpens, it all rushes back. Blood. -*- Lunis has long been regarded as the misfit of the pack-solitary, stubborn, and prone to recklessness.

Annabelle~ 20 years old, the daughter of a noble getting ready for another social event. I walk with the other women who are ahead of me. They are giggling and talking about the recent engagements, the recent social gatherings, the recent investments that potential suitors have made, yet I am simply not interested. I would rather get a job. I want to get down and dirty. Daniel~ 21 years old, a nobleman that owns quite a few acres of land for farming. Father finally died. Leaving the estate to me. I will now be able to rent out the land instead of having father put outrageous buying prices on the damn property. No one can afford them in today's day in age.

The God of the mountains is the God of the valley. This was meme that I saw on someone's Facebook status. It spoke to me, but I was in a time of such deep internal conflict that I just didn't recognize the depth of the truth it conveyed. I was contemplating suicide because my life had seemingly fallen apart. My view was obscured by a barrage of poor life choices so, I did not have time for some fortune cookie type of philosophy on someone's social media status. Also, this was shortly after a dark episode where I was on the verge of taking my own life. As I started this incredulous journey of rebuilding my life I met incredible people that have sowed seeds of wisdom into my life. Thus, in writing this book it is my aim to share insights I have received in a way that is grounded and congruent with Christian faith. This is not a book written by someone on the mountain top looking down on you with abject scrutiny, but just another person making his way through the valley on route to the mountain of hope. So, if you feel lost in this valley of despair then I invite you to stroll with me on this journey as I reflect and share insights gained in my own journey. It's not some heroic comeback tale, but rather a transparent reflection of what it takes to rise above negativity and internal conflict that continues to torment those who are in search of that elusive break in life. In this book I reflect learning gained from on good and bad decisions. I try to pull back the veil in a way that makes the experience relatable and also adds value through a God-inspired perspective. I may not have life figured out and that is the beauty of my journey. My boldness to be imperfect and transparent about that truth. This book sets out to encourage all those who feel lost in the valley of despair. It is my sincere hope that this book delivers in it's goal to remind those still in pursuit of their dream of this simple truth - it is possible.

No matter how absurd this story may seem, please remember that it is TRUE. It happened in real life. The fatal accident, not made up; the girl who had to ingratiate others to fit in, not made up; the rich, narcissistic girl who demanded compliment every day, not made up; the hostile girl who suffered through unimaginable pain, not made up. It looks fake, yes, but coincidence did bring these girls together, and Ella Cass, the author, is one of them. Which one of the girls? I'll leave you to guess. A note from Ella Cass: 'If I haven't had that instant where I narrowly avoided death, I would've got buried in the dark until everyone who has ever had any memory of me die off and it would be as if I've never existed. So, this accident, in some way, inspired me to write my experiences down, on the sole purpose of letting my memory live after my death that may occur tomorrow or decades down the road.'

"If you ever thought living with roommates was a big sleepover, you thought wrong. Try living in a house with four strangers-each from a different world-you'll never truly understand chaos." Living in a townhouse with four other girls-each with their own culture, background, and personal quirks-was never going to be easy. We're all different, yet forced to coexist under one roof. You'd think we'd bond over shared living space, but it's more like a battle of wits, clashing personalities, and unspoken tension. Between the cleaning habits, awkward silences, and gambled routines, there's more than just drama brewing here. Join me, the quiet one, as I try to keep the peace, navigate each girl's unique way of life, and find out what it really means to live with people who are, in every way, strangers. But some thoughts are better left unsaid... and some secrets may just be too big to keep. These are the thoughts of a roommate. Will we all survive this together, or will the walls we've built inside ourselves finally crumble?

This isn't going to be a traditional description but here's the best way I can put this. Look at this novel as an invitation to join me metaphorically at 4am, sitting on the sand, overlooking the beach, still crafting that perfect attempt. This "tale" is composed of an almost fate like union and reacquaintance between the two that never forgot each other. They lean into that familiar feeling of trust thus sparking a new bond that quickly reveals itself as the beginning of a journey that I wish could have unfolded for him and for us. Without giving too much away, this is a tale of self-confidence, transformation, and hope. If you've read this far, thank you. If you decide to pick this up, younger me would be genuinely grateful that someone finally showed up to listen. Come along with Phoenix and Catalyst, through a journey of transformation that spans three adventures. "The first will feel uncomfortable, the second will seem endless, and by the third, you will meet a person completely unrecognizable."

Now, tangled in expectations and what-ifs, he tells his side of the story: raw, restless, and painfully real. Because sometimes the loudest victories echo in the loneliest hearts.

This collection gives voice to the silenced, the sensitive, the searching. Raw, lyrical, and deeply human, these poems echo the thoughts we hide behind smiles and filters, daring to say what others only feel.
