The Journey of a Million Faces: Faceless
Melissa’s world turns upside down the night she stumbles onto a creepy beach ritual that flips a switch inside her. Some kind of wild, dangerous power wakes up in her, and chaos follows fast. Her mom gets snatched, and Liam, the guy who stole her heart, dies trying to save her. Now, the city she thought she knew is crawling with shady watchers, rival factions, and power-hungry creeps who want whatever’s sparking inside her. Scared and alone, Melissa’s on the run until a secretive underground group takes her in. They’re supposed to help “awakeners” like her learn to control their gifts—or maybe they’re just using her for their own game.
With their help, Melissa trains to fight, harness her new powers, and navigate a messy web of groups like the Order, all claiming they’re the good guys. But her heart’s still broken, and she’s obsessed with finding her mom, chasing every whispered rumor, sketchy ritual site, and burned-out operative she can track down. Every clue drags her deeper into a secret war where everyone’s got an agenda, and trust is a luxury she can’t afford.
Then she meets someone different—a guy who sees her as more than a walking weapon. Sparks fly, and against all odds, they start to build something real, something worth fighting for. But just when she’s daring to hope, the truth hits hard: her power’s tied to a looming disaster that could tear the world apart… or save it. To stop it, Melissa might have to give up the one person who makes her feel human again—or watch everything burn to save the love she’s only just found.
