Series Premise

Upper MG / Younger YA Contemporary Fantasy

RESET blends middle-grade emotional realism with escalating fantasy rules. School life, sibling love, and friendship pressure stay grounded while the loop mechanics widen in scope and cost. The result is a character-first fantasy about power, honesty, and who you become while trying to fix everything.
