Description
|book two in the shimmer series| Taylor Swift finally got full custody of her little bee. Her little girl, her Ellie, her daughter. A fresh start, a new city, a new house, a new life. The two of them packed their bags and headed off to Nashville. Neither of them can comprehend just how badly they were hurt by the events that unfolded a few short weeks ago - Ellie isn't the only one waking up screaming in the middle of the night anymore. Ellie isn't the only one with fears that her world will be torn apart again. Ellie isn't the only one who flinches when there's a knock on the door, or when the phone rings, or at the thought of being away from her Mom, Taylor. Ellie is doing better - in their new place. She is doing so well, and Taylor is so proud of her progress, the smiles and shimmery haze about her. But recovery isn't coming so easily to Taylor, no matter how much she fakes it. Taylor's struggling. She's fighting the monsters under her bed all alone, not even Ellie knows what's she's been battling. Ellie is her daughter now - she knew that... but that didn't stop the nightmares of Ellie being taken away... or worse. Their new lives are haunted by ghosts and paper gardens... but slowly, and then all at once, Taylor begins to find cracks of light in the darkness - light that begins to reflect all of her broken pieces. Just like a mirrorball.
