Sixteen year old Maya Oaks has been through so much, the world's greatest psychiatrist wouldn't be able to figure her out. After losing her mom and dad in a car crash that should've killed her too she must find a way to stay on track. But that's kind of hard when you and your brother are being shipped halfway across the United States to live with your crazy aunt. On top of all of this, she has to endure Jamie Lynn, the son of her next door neighbors. Jamie's closed off demeanor makes it difficult to really know him, all she knows is he's strangely protective of her. He won't let any other guys near her, yells at anyone who dares to make fun of her, and wipes away her tears. Feelings soon start to blossom and Maya finds herself falling deeper and deeper for Jamie, but is he who she thinks he is? Co-writing with Soice0511 ** There is swearing/cursing/colorful language, whatever you want to call it. We just like the word fuck.

If someone had told me that Jesse Larson, the schools biggest douche bag had lost his sight, I probably wouldn't believe it. But when you see it for yourself, you're suddenly willing to believe that pigs can fly. But none of that went through my mind, as I watched him lose everything he ever had. I knew what it was like to be shunned, hated and unwanted. That's how he'd made me feel my entire life. But somehow a part of me just couldn't let him feel worthless, no matter how bad he'd made me feel. All I knew was that Jesse needed a friend. A real one. One that wouldn't judge him or gossip about him. One he could talk to. A person that could care about him and love him like no one else.

[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!

"That's exactly how I told you not to do it," Asher groaned from his seat beside me. "You're never going to win her over that way." I rolled my eyes, ground the rose petals between my fingers and kept my eyes on the chandelier so I wasn't glaring at the dance floor. "Who say's I'm trying to win her over?" "Well you obviously wouldn't have fucked up so much if you weren't trying." --- Evan Reed was a force to be reckoned with. A jerk with a smile that could leave you breathless, a gaze that could send your heart racing with equal parts fear and equal parts thrill, and a record sheet that could send your mother crying--the last thing Vegas wanted was to get involved with him. But when she's suddenly thrust into a whole new situation she wasn't ready for, she didn't have a choice but to depend on the one guy who could get her out of it. And that of course was the badass she never, ever wanted to fall for.

Addison Knight is my name, playing nice is not my game. Well, that's not completely true. It's only with the Daniels' that I'm not civil.

On my seventeenth birthday - the year my parents agreed to take me on a road trip - my life turns into a disaster. Call me over dramatic if you want, but when your cozy little trip across the country suddenly turns into a massive, chaotic circus, you're not going to be the happiest goldfish in the box. *** © This story, "The Road Trip," is protected under copyright laws.
