Karen Kingsbury Stand Alone Books Novels & Stories

In this world, many things were possible. “The Moonleaf only blooms at night,” she had said that morning while arranging dried herbs in her shop. “But do not go too deep into Moonville at night, child. It is not only animals that wander there.” I pushed her warning aside.

Blake responded respectfully, "What would that be?" "Look, I am alone in Country A. No one knows me, and no one will want to do anything to me. I am living a good life by myself.

"Living alone in a place this big takes a lot of resilience," Ren observed without pushing for any more painful details.
