About this ebook
This story is dedicated to anyone who ever wanted to change the world, but felt their actions were too small. To anyone who ever dreamed of being a real-life superhero. And to anyone in search of sunshine and lighthearted fun.
Meet the 16-year-old Rose Channing, author of “The Mansion’s Twins,” before her authoring days. Before she knew for sure that magic existed. Before she even knew her own middle name. Before any of that, there was an annoying freshman girl following her around. A girl who talked too much and sang too loud. A girl with a silly but sweet idea to turn ordinary high school students into heroes.
Before Rose became Rose, there was Dawn.

About the Author
PROLOGUE
On a busy little street, in a crazy little home, in a peaceful little room, in a messy little bed, lay a hopeful little girl in a black and gray dress.
She was writing in a notebook, hurrying to finish a project her friends dared her to attempt.
As much as I love them, my stupid friends have presented me with the stupidest writing challenge ever. Just because Lucy and Nick can write anything doesn’t mean I can. Write something outside your usual stuff,
they said. No Crossworlds allowed!
Ugh. Fine. I’ll do what you do, Lucy, and write about my friends. And I’ll do what you do, Nick, and write it as a poem:
Let’s go on an adventure, because these three oddities belong in fantasy books
A tall, curvy woman with thick, flowing brown hair, and eyes like the ocean
A young, skinny man, with tight dark curls, freckled skin and eyes full of wonder
And then there’s the third one, whatever.
The first would have gifts of healing, and a voice made of magic
She can shift anyone and anything into its brighter, better version
The second, a seer, aside from his own life
He knows the world, its truths and lies
The third, well, she can’t even write a poem properly
This is more like a love letter to my friends
Very stupid and cheesy, and I hate you both for making me do this
But hey, we’re all still legends, including me, I guess
My name is Rose, and someday I will be
You’re late for school!
her mom called.
…allowed to finish my damn sentences.
CHAPTER one
the freSHman’s plan
Her pen flew across the page. Her hand was already hurting, but she couldn’t stop, didn’t dare take a break until every last thought was on paper...
Hey, can you help me with something?
said a voice.
One minute,
Rose held up her other hand and continued to write. Almost... Got it!
She slammed the notebook shut and looked up. It took a moment for her surroundings to materialize in front of her again. She was seated at a booth by the window in an otherwise empty cafeteria. Class would start in five minutes, and there was a girl staring at her. What’s up?
Rose had never seen this girl before. She was small, with large eyes and long blonde hair. Clearly this was a freshman—she had that lost, excited look on her face.
What’re you writing?
Nothing,
Rose said. School stuff. What’s up?
Wow, you must be a really good student. It looked really long. What class is it for?
Rose frowned at her. Okay, it’s not for school, it’s just a story I’m writing.
You’re a writer? Cool! What’s it about? Can I read it?
Didn’t you need help with something?
"Oh. Yeah. I’m a freshman, and I need help finding my
