Ink #1
A Gift Unknown
alternate cover edition 9780615911748
When Ali Snow first discovers a strange mark on her arm upon her eighteenth birthday, she tries to dismiss it as an innocent stain. However when the mark returns, her suspicions quickly deepen. She reaches out for help from her grandfather, but his unexpected death leaves Ali to face the mystery alone.
Each time the mark returns, Ali is haunted further by the foreign symbols she searches to understand while carefully hiding it from those around her. She manages to keep her secret safe until one night someone sees more than expected, and Ali soon learns there’s more to the mark than the mere ink upon her skin.
For with the mark comes the darkness to destroy, or the power to protect, but only if she accepts it for the gift it really is.

Hello, lovely wanderer! I'm Mae East. Thanks for stopping by. I’m an independent author who likes to roam across genres the way some people roam through bookstores—curious, wide-eyed, and occasionally carrying more than I probably should.
I’m generally an optimist at heart, but my stories sometimes slip down shadowy alleyways or wander into stormy weather. I like a bit of contrast—sunshine means more after the rain, after all.
My books won’t be everyone’s cup of tea (or coffee… or mysterious glowing potion), and that’s perfectly all right. Stories are like doors: not every one is meant for every traveler. But if you choose to open one of mine, I hope it leads you somewhere unexpected, unforgettable, or perhaps to a much-needed escape hatch from a busy life.
And if one path doesn’t suit you? There’s always another genre waiting just around the corner.
However you found your way here, thank you. From one reader to another, may your shelves be full, your bookmarks plentiful, and your next great adventure only a page away. 📚✨

I really liked this book, hated the ending. Typo's and misspelled words( unless this was an ARC copy) I will read the next book and see if it is any better.

I couldn't stop reading it until I finished it in one sitting . I find the story intriguing although the script need to be reviewed due to some mistakes . I had an issue religion wise with angels walking as humans and fallen angels getting married to humans but such things set aside .. the storyteller had a really vivid imagination and looking forward to read what happens next.
