Dawn Rising: 1 (Marked)

Alyssia Gale is a daydreamer. A liar. An attention seeker. Everyone shes ever known has found a label to stick on her but one things for sure: she cant be telling the truth. The flashes she sees of the dark and difficult lives of four other people living in a world thats not her own ... they cant be real. Alyssia understands that as well as anyone even if she does keep catching herself thinking of the people she sees as friends.Then shes pulled into that other world by blood and dark magic and realises that everyone shes ever known was wrong.To start with her focus is on surviving until she can find a way home. Yet it doesnt take long for her to figure out that where before she was merely a spectator now she can change things. And with one of her friends being forced into an abusive marriage and another trapped in the cruellest of prisons theres plenty that needs changing. She just needs to survive long enough to do it.What she doesnt know is that something connects her to these four people. Something she never could have imagined. And its not long before she isnt just fighting to find her place between the worlds - shes fighting to protect her closest friends from a narrative that wants them dead.
