While on summer vacation, a young boy spends time with a mysterious girl, who, before she must suddenly leave, asks him to keep a secret; she is from another planet. Years later, the girl enters his high school class, and as they rekindle their friendship, the secret and her parents must be confronted.

The dark windows of an abandoned caboose stare down at Dawn as she wonders how she got to the historic Virginia town park—the last thing she remembers is sitting in a café with her best friend, Violeta. Within a blink, three ethereal girls climb out of the rickety structure and invite Dawn into the world of time. The world of Fates. Dawn agrees to join them as an initiate and attempt the nine trials required to become a spinner of time. Why not? Even if they aren’t really Fates, it’s not like she has anything better to do. The first trial is easy, but then a young girl dies after the second. Dawn is shattered. She throws her brief training, natural ability, and frustration at the three aloof girls, but in turn they threaten consequences worse than death if she fails.

Reluctantly, Dawn perseveres, struggling with the responsibility of shaping destinies—barely escaping a string of accidents that claim more lives. She initially suspects sabotage by Nikos—the new boy at school—until he rescues her from a dangerous situation he obviously didn’t cause.

Dawn reweaves the threads of time, meddling with people’s lives while trying to complete her first trials. Desperate for help and not knowing where else to turn, she pushes aside her suspicions and teams up with Nikos to discover what sort of entity could be powerful enough to elicit fear in the spinners of time, her mentors. Dawn and Nikos discover these Fates are not unknown to their hometown, or even to their families. His mom and aunt were the prior generation’s Fate initiates until halfway through something went horribly wrong and they were unable to complete their trials. Dawn’s fear builds within her—failure, a fate worse than death, and being locked away with Nikos’ aunt, catatonic for 20 years in the local mental hospital—until Dawn and Nikos come to a stunning realization. The Fates abandoned Nikos’ aunt to Gorak—the embodiment of Chaos that now stalks Dawn with equal parts danger and seduction.

Our hero starts as just another girl trapped by the constraints of society’s family and gender roles and develops into her true potential—untamed and fully herself. Maybe we could all use a little chaos in our lives.

Synopsis: A widowed and still reeling university professor pairs up with an autistic savant doctoral student to revive his career and life.

Professor Tristan Claramond has been widowed for two years, and is still very raw. Since his wife Angela’s illness became terminal, he has neglected his health and home and has just gone through the motions at work, risking what was once a promising career. He finds some strength in their two sons, but they do not live with him and are a constant reminder that he failed to save their mother.

Amy David is a doctoral student at Tristan’s university, an autistic savant who was orphaned at a very young age – just old enough to remember losing her parents – and still cared for by her protective aunt Rhea and uncle George. The “love of her life” has been a project that she developed between degree studies, and based on her apparent potential, Amy was convinced by Rhea and George to get her PhD.

Amy’s original advisor, Dr. Dolion, has been impatient and discouraging from the beginning, considering her an “affirmative action hire.” Despite her studies progressing well scientifically, Amy cannot win grants. Dr. Dolion ultimately decides to pawn her off on fading Tristan.

Amy first communicates with Tristan only by email and telephone about her project and experiences, and observes him in classes. As mutual trust builds, she confides in him and he in her. She immediately picks up on his sadness and he ultimately on her sixth sense when it comes to him and to their shared field. When they finally meet in person, it is electric for him, and though she seems standoffish, she actually feels safe.

Amy begins helping advance Tristan’s neglected projects. Her meticulous attention to detail earns her the reward of continuing to work on her own experiment that she adores. As they work together, she finds ways to repay his kindness. Tristan’s affection for Amy grows and she opens up more. He dreams frequently about his deceased wife, who tells him to let go of his previous life.

When Amy’s discovers her original advisor has stolen her work to obtain a prestigious award, she overdoses on her medication and is hospitalized. As she is recovering, Tristan turns his retriggered sadness into rectifying the situation, and to regaining his own health. Amy acknowledges his efforts by initiating increasingly intimate physical contact, despite her initial dislike for being touched.

Amy continues her work and is awarded an important grant, while she and Tristan grow closer. On a Saturday at his home, they consummate their mutual passion and proclaim their love for one another. Amy is awakened the next morning by a loving text from Tristan, to which she responds in kind. We see him cleaning his house, a major step in moving on from Angela. He looks very much at peace.
