I died... or I nearly died... I think. 

Now, I'm traveling to realms I never knew existed.

The purpose? To learn empathy for others, and how to become  a better person, all due to a crazy wish I made on New Year's Eve. 

Now, I'm bouncing from realm to realm at the hands of my hot mentor, who told me I can't fall in love with him. What a thing to say.

I have one year to learn the lessons of twelve virtues in twelve months... if I want my wish to come true... and if I don't want to die.

As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for.

My Crazy New Year's Wish

"When's Dad gonna be here?" I wailed, eager to leave. Of course, my mother thought that I was just eager to go to Disney World. But in reality, the more distance we put between us and Tennessee, the better. The tornado was coming tomorrow, and I didn't want to take a chance on being here when it arrived.


Mom put her hands on her hips, her lips pursed. "Now, Tasha. You know that sometimes your father has to work. But I promise we'll leave as soon as he gets here."


"Today?" I asked Mom, knowing she couldn't hear Stellan.


Mom gave me a kind smile. "Yes, today, honey." Then she looked up at Colt, standing by my side, taking it all in. "Colt, honey, could you go to the living room for a moment, please?"


"Yes," Colt said, already heading that way. 


Once he was out of earshot, Mom looked into my eyes. "Tasha, I haven't forgotten your bad feeling. And I promise, we will leave today... no matter what time. Okay?"
