A Kansas City author and high school counselor, she spins stories that walk the line between dystopian nightmares and raw, emotional truth. Her debut novel Sovereign launched The Sovereign Trilogy, a twisty, high-stakes YA series full of secrets, survival, and rebellion. Whether she's writing or working with teens IRL, AJ's mission is the same: Help teenagers own their weird, ask the right questions, and never settle for silence. Called \"the future of YA fiction\" by KC Book Beat, she's here to challenge the rules and remind readers that the only way to the light is through the dark.","brand":"Blue Handle Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52160122093842,"sku":"9781955058360","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_1f66bd67-0790-4d7a-ae46-f9c8c4886ae5.jpg?v=1775037214","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/elysium-part-2-of-the-sovereign-trilogy-9781955058360","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
