About Defy Me

Juliette Ferrars isn’t who she thinks she is.

Nothing in her world is what it seemed. She thought she’d defeated The Reestablishment. She thought she’d finally taken control of her life, her power, her pain. But a lifetime of lies unravelling before her has changed all that.

Stronger, braver, and more resilient than ever, Juliette must fight for life and love. But first she has to survive the war being raged against her mind.

She has to remember who she was.

Defy Me is available to buy now.
