LUMINIFEROS by Yana Metro
At just eighteen, Lilly White has lived multiple lives. She endured the harsh reality of growing up in an English orphanage, isolated and unwanted. But paradoxically, visions and dreams of lush forests, mystical creatures and most troubling of all - a warm, loving family. Lilly doesn't know if these are the delusions of a lonely mind, or something more. When a man with a raven reveals a portal to a lost world, she finally gets proof she is not insane. But for all the ethereal beauty of this impossible place, a toxic darkness creeps closer, consuming everything in its path. Caught between the desire to belong and the need to fight an evil that threatens all of existence, Lilly uncovers gifts within herself she never imagined. But some truths are hidden for your own good... Now she is thrust into a mission to save two worlds with non-existent odds of survival. Yet it's either that or a fate worse than death.
