In Connect, they show readers how to take their relationships from shallow to exceptional by cultivating authenticity, vulnerability, and honesty, while being willing to ask for and offer help, share a commitment to growth, and deal productively with conflict.

Book excerpt: Welcome to the fourth season of The Crown Chronicles: Industrial Age, where we once again delve into the captivating lives of the esteemed Royal Family of Willow Creek. This season, titled 'Industrial Age', marks a turning point as the family navigates the challenges and triumphs of the modern era. This season provides us with crisper, clearer pictures, vivid descriptions, and a candid narrative from the author that draws us closer to the characters we have come to love. While the previous season, 'Transition', served as a prequel, setting the stage for the family's journey, season 4 takes us on a thrilling exploration of not only the royal family but also the other close families, junior members, consorts, and individuals within the royal inner circle. We witness their growth, development, and establishment within the city, offering a deeper understanding of their lives and the impact they have on Willow Creek. As the title suggests, 'Industrial Age' brings about a major transformation in the city of Willow Creek. The once familiar landscape undergoes a complete renovation, bidding farewell to the remnants of 2017 through 2020. Old buildings and scenery make way for new parks, retail buildings, and stunning makeovers, breathing new life into the city. Alongside the physical changes, we also witness the senior members of the story undergoing their own transformations, aging gracefully and exuding a sense of maturity and establishment. The children, once mere kids, now enter their tween and teenage years, while the teenagers embark on the journey of young adulthood and start their own families. One of the most notable aspects of this season is the inclusion of people of color, black and brown families, and individuals who bring a dynamic and diverse perspective to the city. Their presence adds depth and richness to the narrative, highlighting the importance of representation and inclusivity. Furthermore, the introduction of new downloadable content for the popular video game 'The Sims 4' allows for even more layers of storytelling, immersing us further into this captivating world. As the family explores this new world, the 'Industrial Age' serves as a reminder that they must adapt and evolve with the times in order to expand their empire. Themes of entitlement, prestige, and wealth continue to play a pivotal role in the story, offering thought-provoking insights into the complexities of royal life. And, of course, the author's personal and candid perspective infuses the narrative with a jovial tone, ensuring that we are thoroughly entertained throughout this remarkable saga. *(It is important to note that while this story draws inspiration from The Sims 4, it is an independent creation and not affiliated with EA or any related entities.)

So when Riley and Fairmont Academy mean girls June Phelan-Park and Dayton Nesseth die under suspicious circumstances, Mila refuses to believe everyone's explanation that her BFF was involved in a suicide pact.

Unfortunately, Riley, June, and Dayton have no recollection of their murders. But they do have unfinished business to attend to. Now, with only seven days until the spell wears off and the girls return to their graves, Mila must wrangle the distracted group of undead teens and work fast to discover their murderer...before the killer strikes again.
