Description:
There’s
magic in the air.
Tremble
Dawson thinks her biggest worry is completing her college internship
at a mega successful advertising agency. That is, until she discovers
her seemingly normal upbringing has all been an illusion. Her life is
turned upside down when a handsome stranger pays a visit and offers
to be a special kind of bodyguard to protect her from an evil force
bent on making her fulfill a twisted prophecy.
Perhaps,
she should have paid more attention to her unusual bosses or the
sparks that uncontrollably fly out of her fingertips. Despite the
clues along the way, Tremble is not prepared to learn that her
existence is full of secrets—secrets from another world. As she
discovers her true identity and the mystery that surrounds her
heritage, Tremble realizes there’s a bounty on her future and she
is the one who must pay the price.
Join
Tremble on a bewitching adventure as she begins her journey to
another world full of enchanting surprises.

Excerpt:
The
normal view from the front window of Tremble’s house was of a large
brick Colonial home across the street where the Garland family used
to live. Their oldest daughter, Tabitha, had been Tremble’s
babysitter. But, as Laken pulled back the drapes, Tremble did not see
the edge of a Japanese maple on the left hand side of the window or
the evening sun setting on the right. Instead, she saw the most
beautiful place she had ever seen. The sound of her mother gasping
seemed far away as Tremble took in the view.
The
colors were so vibrant. They glistened like fresh paint on a canvas.
Only nothing seemed to be the color that Tremble expected. The grass
was purple and the sky was yellow. The bark of a tree was red and the
leaves were black with silver. The flowers did not have stems.
Instead, they seemed to be floating on air and were constantly
moving. One such flower kept floating closer and closer. Its center
was a deep green and its petals were chocolate brown. She wanted to
taste it. She wanted to touch it.
“Go
ahead. Reach out, Neverwrong is not just to be viewed, it must be
felt.”
Laken
walked up behind her. Tremble momentarily let her gaze leave the
window as she felt Laken’s hand gently touch the small of her back.
She wondered what color sparks were emitting from his hand, as she
could feel them on her back. He nodded as he met her eyes.
“Go
ahead.”
Tremble
reached out her hand.
“Tremble,
I don’t know if you should.” Her mother’s voice instinctively
made her stop.
“Don’t
worry. I would never allow anything to harm her.” Laken removed his
hand from Tremble’s back and extended it to Dana. “You can touch
it, too.”
“How
will I possibly be able to have the same experience as Tremble?”
Dana walked up behind her daughter.
“You
will not. You will have one that is uniquely your own. Tremble’s
experience will be natural. You shall experience the magic of
Neverwrong a different way.”
“How
will that be?”
“You
are able to see Neverwrong now because I have cast a spell allowing
it. The same shall be true of this portion of the experience.”
As
Laken finished answering Dana, Tremble took hold of her mother’s
hand, pulling it up toward the window. As Tremble’s right hand and
Dana’s left touched the glass, something extraordinary began
happening to Tremble, she started to be absorbed into what she had
been seeing. She looked down and the purple grass was under her feet.
Multicolored flowers were falling all around her. Bubbles floated by
with little insects inside. A hundred fragrances came at her at once;
it was overpowering. It seemed to Tremble as if she could smell every
living thing around her separately and all together at the same time.
Her eyes were becoming one with the color. She felt as though her
body was absorbing the experience. She was feeling it from the
outside in and from the inside out at the same time. The spell was
broken when she realized she was no longer holding her mother’s
hand.
