Daughter of the Mara

“You are a creature of nightmares. The visions, the fits, the madness that these people have tried to treat: it is what you are.”

Jay knows she’s insane. After all, most people don’t have nightmares when they’re awake.

Locked away at thirteen for a crime she doesn’t remember committing, Jay has spent the last five years in a psychiatric hospital unable to distinguish between real life and her waking nightmares.

But then she meets Harvey and everything changes. Harvey breaks her out of the hospital, telling her that she isn’t crazy, that she is the living embodiment of a nightmare: a mara.

As Jay struggles to control the nightmares within her, she is faced with opponents outside her own mind: Harvey’s brother Edmund, whose affection for Jay seems too good to be true, the mother who abandoned her as a child, and an entire court of mara who want to kill her for merely existing.

In this dark YA fantasy, Jay is torn between the waking world and the realm of nightmares and must work to control her powers and achieve her destiny before forces darker than her own nightmares lock her away for good.

Fans of Leigh Bardugo and L.J. Smith will love this story of romance, madness, and nightmare fairies.
