Stuart offered Edie a contract marriage after the passionate night they shared. He told her it would only last for six months until his family and shareholders could prove that he is not gay. Suddenly, Edie discovered the truth that Stuart is not gay but he had a rare type of phobia. She then fell in love with him. He did everything to let her stay beside him. One day someone pretends to be Stuart’s ex-fiancee after he met an accident, would he still remember his wife, Edie? Would their story ends tragically, or their love will remind him of the woman who is bound to be his fate from the very beginning? Would he still remember how deeply he loved her? Can Edie stand all the struggles along the way when she felt alone and unloved by her husband? Special Note: If you are looking for a sweet contemporary-romance genre, this novel doesn't have that kind of plot. Most plots of my novel talk about mystery, suspense, and a slice of life. Often FL starts a slow pace of development, from weak to strong. Wanna know more about the story follow me at Instagram: annashannellin

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head.

Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Postmodern English novels typically have self - reflexivity. This means that the novel is aware of itself as a work of art. For instance, 'Midnight's Children' plays with the idea of storytelling and how history is told. They also often use intertextuality, referring to other texts. In 'White Teeth', there are references to different cultural and literary works. Moreover, they tend to have unreliable narrators, as seen in 'Atonement', which adds an element of doubt and complexity to the story.

One characteristic is the play with language. Postmodern Indian English novels often blend different registers of English, from the highly formal to the very colloquial, along with Indian languages and dialects. This creates a rich and unique linguistic tapestry. Another aspect is the fragmented narrative structure. Instead of a linear plot, these novels might jump between different time periods, perspectives, and storylines, challenging the traditional notion of a coherent narrative.

Yes. 'The Satanic Verses' by Salman Rushdie is a postmodern English novel. It combines elements of magical realism, religious satire, and complex narrative structures. Then there is 'Irvine Welsh's 'Trainspotting'. It presents a gritty and fragmented view of the lives of a group of drug addicts in Edinburgh, using a postmodern style to disrupt linear storytelling. Also, Jeanette Winterson's 'Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit' is a postmodern work that deals with themes of love, gender, and non - conformity in a very creative way.

The complex and fluid nature of characters' identities. In the novel, the characters are not simply defined at the start and stay that way. Their identities shift and change as the story progresses, which is in line with postmodern concepts of identity not being fixed and stable.

One way is its fragmented narrative. The story is not told in a linear fashion, which is a common postmodern trait. It jumps between different time periods and perspectives, making the reader piece together the overall plot. This disrupts the traditional narrative structure and forces the reader to be more actively involved in constructing the meaning of the story.
