Toward a Secret Sky by New York Times bestselling author Heather Maclean is a new breed of YA novel: an intelligent adventure-quest crossed with a sweeping, forbidden love story. A mix of reality and possibility, this fast-paced thriller will appeal to fans of Stephenie Meyer and Dan Brown as it leads the reader on a breathless flight through the highlands of Scotland, the secret city under London, and history itself. Shortly after 17-year-old Maren Hamilton is orphaned and sent to live with grandparents she’s never met in Scotland, she receives an encrypted journal from her dead mother that makes her and everyone around her a target. It confirms that her parents were employed by a secret, international organization that’s now intent on recruiting her. As Maren works to unravel the clues left behind by her mother, a murderous madness sweeps through the local population, terrorizing her small town. Maren must decide if she’ll continue her parents’ fight or stay behind to save her friends. With the help of Gavin, an otherworldly mercenary she’s not supposed to fall in love with, and Graham, a charming aristocrat who is entranced with her, Maren races against the clock and around the country from palatial estates with twisted labyrinths to famous cathedrals with booby-trapped subterranean crypts to stay ahead of the enemy and find a cure. Along the way, she discovers the great truth of love: that laying down your life for another isn’t as hard as watching them sacrifice everything for you.

The stars speak in a language of secrets, yet their stories cannot remain hidden forever. Billions of years ago, on one of the first-ever Earths, a boy named Skylar will walk away from his home for the last time. Beset by dreams where he flies through the early universe as a sentient starship, he will never be safe if his secret gets out. His only chance to stay alive is to fall in with the same knights who destroyed his peasant village and live under the shadow of the king who sent them to exterminate Skylar’s people. But powerful dreams have a way of shaping reality, and with each midnight flight across the cosmos, Skylar finds his world—and himself—changing. Magic is another thing which should only exist in dreams, yet Skylar has it—one more secret that needs keeping. Against a waking life full of monsters, warriors, swords, sorcery, treasure, and ancient mysteries, Skylar has only one key for putting all the pieces together: the Secret Sky that haunts his sleeping mind.

Everybody wishes they could fly—until it happens. When Emelynn Taylor wakes up in the emergency room, her injuries present Dr. Avery Coulter with more questions than answers. Who is this guarded young woman? Why was she found in the middle of Sunset Park? How can she have injuries consistent with falling from above the tree line? Seemingly from nowhere? And, more importantly: Why is she lying about it? The truth is stranger than anyone could have imagined - least of all Emelynn herself. Nine years earlier, during the same summer she'd lost her father, 12-year-old Emelynn accepted a 'gift' from a mysterious woman called Jolene. Now, as she recovers in Dr. Coulter's emergency room, she's left wondering if that blessing was really more of a curse. Jolene's gift planted the seeds of incredible power within Emelynn - but what's the point of such abilities if you can't control them? Her emerging gift of flight, for example, nearly killed Emelynn when it sent her plummeting to the sidewalk in Sunset Park. Next time, she might not be so lucky. But Emelynn is determined to master her abilities, and returns to the seaside cottage where Jolene had once granted her this 'gift.' There, Dr. Coulter guides Emelynn in uncovering a secret society of others just like her, who inhabit a mysterious world-within-a-world that challenges everything Emelynn thought she'd known. But the more she uncovers, the murkier the truth becomes. Soon, Emelynn is left questioning the motives of those she'd trusted the most - and is forced to rely on her barely mastered powers in a desperate fight for survival. Secret Sky is the first book in the thrilling, otherworldly The Gift Legacy series by JP McLean. Seamlessly blending paranormal mystery, fantasy, and romance, this beautifully written and deeply resonant adventure will swoop you into a vivid, new reality and leave your imagination soaring.

Perhaps it was the discovery of a hidden message written within the pages of a forbidden notebook, or maybe it was just too soon to move on from the past - whatever the true cause was - something had definitely snapped in the mind of Gabriana Hilson that caused her to flee, leaving Khali Simone alone at the alter on their wedding day. Many were left baffled and speculating, and for over a year - except for the abandoned BMW left on the airport's parking lot - there were no real leads as to the whereabouts of the runaway bride. She'd simply vanished or flown away for no apparent reason, or so it seemed... But in reality, there's always a truth - a beginning and an ending - to everything. Gabriana thought she'd escaped her nightmares and she had for a while until a bout of deja vu strikes. Then suddenly, she finds herself haunted at night, once again, but this time unlike no other. Reoccuring dreams are drawing her to a secret place; a place of answers. A place Gabriana is hesitant to go until one courageous night when she creeps from her bed and follows her intuition. Whatever happened that night forces Gabriana to pack up everything immediately - including her most prized possession - and head back to the place, and the very person she'd ran from... Khali Simone. She has to find him - and when she does - she enters into another nightmare. One that becomes the hardest of them all to escape. Because she can't escape...SECRET SKY.

Download Manifold Visions of Self Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The book Manifold Visions of Self is a collection of poems questioning the freedom of self, in connection to nature and existence. In one way, one's search for freedom may be quiet introspection; in other way it may be a means of extrospection mirroring the humanization of the world in entirety. Some of my poems are interior monologues of my inner Self, musings on Nature and God. Moreover, a few poems question the advocacy of women's rights, and a few against inimical child labour. Some of my poems reflect the magnitude of general evil penned with language of freedom, power of reality and substantial action. All the poems are absolute invention of me and the facts which took place within my personal observation, a natural delineation of human passions, human characters and human incidents. As such, many poems speak more philosophically of my spiritual attachment with the unique things of existence.
