Downloading The Crystal Compass (Willowbrook Magic Series Book 5)

Sophie Crane is three months away from marrying the love of her life. She should be happy. Instead, she's having daily panic attacks.

Six years ago, her parents' divorce taught her a painful lesson: love isn't enough. Now, watching her wedding day approach, Sophie can't shake the fear that she and Yuki will end up the same way—another divorce statistic, another failed promise of forever.

When an ancient artifact called the Compass of Selves awakens in Willowbrook, reality itself begins to fracture. People are seeing alternate versions of their lives—the roads not taken, the choices not made. And Sophie sees the one thing she fears most: a timeline where she marries Yuki and they divorce.

To save her community, Sophie must enter the Compass physically and experience every possible version of her life. Every choice she could have made. Every future she might have had. Including the ones where she loses everything.

Inside the Compass, Sophie will face her deepest fear. She'll talk to her parents about their divorce. She'll see timelines where she never met Yuki, where she ran from love, where she stayed and fought. And she'll have to choose which reality to return to—knowing that choosing means risking everything she's afraid to lose.

Because the only thing scarier than failing at love is never trying at all.
