She doesn't need a mirror to know what she looks like--she can see her reflection in the eyes of everyone around her. A year after the fire that destroyed her world, her aunt and uncle have decided she should go back to high school. Be "normal" again. Whatever that is. Ava knows better. There is no normal for someone like her. And forget making friends--no one wants to be seen with the Burned Girl, now or ever. But when Ava meets a fellow survivor named Piper, she begins to feel like maybe she doesn't have to face the nightmare alone.

Piper introduces Ava to Asad, a boy who loves theater just as much as she does, and slowly, Ava tries to create a life again. Yet Piper is fighting her own battle, and soon Ava must decide if she's going to fade back into her scars . . . or let the people by her side help her fly.

This book is for everyone, burned or not, who has ever searched for a light in the darkness." --Stephanie Nielson, New York Times bestselling author of Heaven Is Here and a burn survivor

"Based on a true story of a promising doctor who sees the life with endless opportunities" After finishing her post doctorate in paediatrics, when it was all set to achieve newer heights, a disaster struck turning her life topsy-turvy for all time to come, and shattering her dreams and putting a pause to her life. From a beautiful fairy tale to a post-accident quadriplegic wheelchair bound life, the emotional turmoil and physical challenges faced as a differently abled is one of a kind. All she had to undergo-the struggles, the fight against self and the world to decorate life with the left over's, seeking her passion, encouraging many in the process. The sole purpose of this book is to inspire all those who have been struck with life changing incidents and decide to give up rather than fighting their way back and to transpire the idea of what it means to relish with the beauty of continuity of life. The story highlights the struggle about how the journey to bring life back on track is never easy but it's not impossible and this experience has been served on platter to the readers. This book brings to the world a comeback saga of a young girl with wings of fire and how she was transformed to becoming differently abled physically by the fate but she showed the onlookers the essence of being differently abled to think beyond the limitations and her struggle as she fought and conquered her way back to mainstream life, inspiring all those around her.
