Fake It - Book synopsis

Lauren Winters, a girl who despises the thought of having a crush. She hates the pitter-patter of her heart when one certain person is around. She hates that her mouth likes to run off when that one certain person is in the conversation, and it says something stupid before she can catch up to it. But most of all? She hates her friend group for pointing out that she hasn't even gone on a date in six years. Because now she finds herself agreeing to go on one date, just to get them to shut up. Because now she has to go through the nerve wracking fear of not being in control. But now, she has an idea.

Chase Rodgers, your typical asshole of a guy. Unfortunately for him, he's got an ex girlfriend that broke up with him, and everyone thinks he's some clingy guy thats still hung up on her. So now he's got something to prove. Chase has to prove to everyone that he's over that girl--and that he is not, let me make that clear. He's not over her yet, but everyone's telling him he isn't like if it's obvious. So now? He's not happy. You know what else he isn't happy about? Lauren winters. 

Lauren Winters and Chase Rodgers are absolutely disgusted by one another. But guess what? Now Lauren has proposed an idea to Chase, and it seems like a pretty good deal. He gets what he wants, and she gets what she wants. Win-win, right? Except it's not a "Win-win" because the last thing they'd wanna do is go out with each other. Thats why they're going to fake it. Fake dates, fake chemistry, fake everything. But here's where they panic--at what point did the lines of real and fake start to blur?

WHY YOU SHOULD READ THE DIVINE TRIALS BOOK SERIES!

What is it?

The Divine Trials is a story about connections, empathy and love. It's also a story about cool magic fights, familial trauma, and angels and demons (because they're super aesthetic). When I started writing this series I felt very alone and isolated. So, I decided to write a story where someone feeling the same way got to go on an adventure in a wondrous and intriguing world, accompanied by a cast of fun characters. This series is the result, and I hope that Enoch's story will resonate with others feeling as lonely as him. And if not his, then perhaps the journeys of those he meets along the way. After all, everyone we meet is going through a journey of their own, and the inhabitants of the Three Realms are no different.

No one is meant to be alone in this world, and if you're willing to look, you'll eventually find people that love you. You exist, so you're worthy of being loved. Though on the surface, this is a series about people facing villains, having magic battles and stopping world-ending disasters, at its core it's simply about people in pain healing through the love of those around them.

Okay, but what is it about?

In a fantasy world split into three realms, a Scribe with prophetic powers finds himself dragged into the conflicts of angels, demons and gods. Visions of danger and destruction plague the dreams of a young human named Enoch Augnium. To protect those around him, he must face off against people blessed with magic abilities; track down Remnants of the gods that existed before the world itself; and stay true to his belief that every life is worth saving.

And what about that cast of fun characters you mentioned?

To avoid clogging up your dashboard, I'll introduce the characters in a series of Meet the Cast posts! Specifically folks from the first book, The Origin of Enoch. That will obviously take some time though, so I'll also add the intros to this page here as they're created.

Meet the Characters!

FIRE & FLIGHT in a nutshell (synopsis/transcript below the cut):⠀

☑️ Strong female protagonist⠀

☑️ Longing for home adventures⠀

☑️ Ancient legends + a quest for answers⠀

☑️ Dangerous self-discovery

Since the mysterious loss of her family, the mischievous and lively spark inside of Nyla has gone dormant… or has it?

Nyla, a female who was a force, has been living in the storied and dangerous Shadow Forest. Longing for home, adventures rarely take her into populated areas, allowing her to recede into herself. This suspenseful fiction about fire follows her struggle to survive in the wilderness of Tenebris.

With nowhere else to go, Nyla decides to start a quest for Fortune Falls. Along the way she meets Xander, an older boy also far from home. A suspenseful book about monsters, the two scramble to escape death at every turn in their hunt for the fabled water. Curious, but cautious, Xander doesn’t know what Nyla might be hiding—but then, neither does she. This work of lost family literature about trauma also delves into the psychological need for a support system, especially in times of grief and mourning—and self-discovery.

The dangers of the Shadow Forest, said to protect the magical Fortune Falls at its heart, are just the beginning of Nyla and Xander’s troubles. Based on legends of old, the two are caught up in this suspenseful fiction about magic. As Fate would have it, Nyla’s future just might be tangled up with the destiny of Tenebris.

Will Nyla’s new acquaintances rally around her or run from her when they find out what she’s hiding? 

In the Fantasy novel Fire & Flight, Nyla traverses the forest, haunted by fire, shadows, and a secret even she can’t answer.

There are those that tell stories about the legends of the Shadow Forest, of magical waters that grant your deepest desires, and of times long ago when ancient sorcerers wielded unnatural power.

After the death of her family and the appearance of strange physical changes she cannot explain, seventeen-year-old Nyla begins to wonder if she might be cursed with magic herself. Without a home and longing for the family she’s lost, Nyla retreats into herself.

But when her new plan for answers brings her to a crossroads with a fellow traveler named Xander—whose own painful past is also a mystery—Nyla must decide if she can trust a stranger. But even if she can learn to trust, could her very connection to Xander place them both in peril?

With an ominous force gaining power in Nyla’s homeland, she must choose how far she is willing to go to find answers when not only her fate—but possibly all of Tenebris—depends on it.

Fire & Flight is Brianna R. Shaffery’s debut novel and the first novel in the epic young adult Fantasy trilogy Heirs of Tenebris.
