Alice Munro New Yorker

When Sarah’s quiet, carefully guarded life begins to fracture, it starts with whispers. Whispers of a past she can’t remember. Of a family she was never meant to know. Of a realm she was never supposed to find. Then Justin arrives. Mysterious, sharp-eyed, always one step too close, Justin is everything Sarah can’t explain—and doesn’t want to. Their connection is immediate, suffocating, and impossible to ignore. But while Sarah tries to hold onto the fragile world she’s built, the people around her begin keeping secrets. Secrets about the Court. About the pendants she’s inherited. And about the boy who seems to know more about her than he admits. As nightmares blur into waking visions and strangers stalk the shadows of her town, Sarah is pulled into a web of lies, blood, and forgotten oaths. The realm of Nox calls to her, a place of trials and darkness where every answer comes with a price. Freyr, the enigmatic figure who claims to be her guide, offers her power—but the deeper she goes, the more she realizes that the greatest threat might not be the realm or the Court. It might be the bond tethering her to Justin. As their relationship spirals from reluctant partnership into something more dangerous—obsession, need, betrayal—Sarah is forced to make a choice that will break them both. But some bonds refuse to be broken. Even if they should be.

"You are Alice!" She doesn't know what her name is, but she's sure that it is not what they claim.

Ever wonder who writes the story of your life? No, not the author of this little synopsis (that’s me, by the way, hey there). I mean the big one—the all-seeing, all-knowing, slightly bored half-deity who probably thinks tragedy is an art form. Yeah, that one. She goes by the name Prometheus. This? This story is her absolute favorite—a killer she simply calls "Alisha." Why her favorite? Well, Prometheus has penned quite a few stories, even gave birth to her own duology (coming soon, don’t miss it), but Alisha? Oh, she’s something else. Betrayal, bloody battles, an identity crisis so deep it’ll pull you in (don’t even try to deny it). It’s a masterpiece in the making. But here’s the kicker: Prometheus didn’t just create Alisha. Oh no, she’s still writing her. Every step she takes, every bullet she fires, every question she asks about this so-called "real" world—it’s all me. Or at least, it was. Here’s the problem, though. Alisha is starting to... notice. She’s getting wise to the fact that her life isn’t hers, that her world is a little *too* convenient, and that her big mission? It’s not just about taking down the Prince who wants to rule the world—it’s about finding me. And let me tell you, reader, I’m equal parts terrified and exhilarated. So, here’s where you come in. As Alisha races through the shadows, pulling at the loose threads of her reality—and my divine little plot—she’s getting dangerously close to breaking out of this story altogether. If she finds me? Well... let’s just say the line between creator and creation might start to look a whole lot blurrier than either of us is comfortable with. But hey, it’s all part of the narrative. Probably. Shall we turn the page? Or should I rewrite Alisha out of this story before things get... a little too complicated? ~Prometheus
