Not all abuse is physical. Some is the result of psychological warfare. For 42 years, I seemed to be receiving coded messages that something was wrong. They came from seemingly likable billboard ads, pop songs and TV comedy skits. The queasiness, the worries , the obsessions when I would see certain unrelated words and images -- why? Could I ever solve the puzzle and figure out what had gone off the rails in my otherwise happy youth? This is the true story of a man who had set out to right the world's wrongs, and finally faced a hideous injustice from his own past, then started a road to feeling okay!

Sophie Green calls the shots in sex and love as both her childhood nemesis, Shawn Henderson, and the mysterious new heartthrob, Landon Pearce, vie for her romantic attention. But when she discovers that she's the target of a secret world of monsters, can she keep her life under control? ***** Sophie is so anti-social she can barely stand other human beings, so she definitely draws the line at non-human entities like gryphons and dragons, especially when it comes to dating. But when tragedy hits, Sophie's whole world shatters and she's left with a choice: face the painful truths of life, or leave her humanity behind forever. If she wants to be the boss of her own fate, Sophie will have to learn to tell apart the mess in her heart from the madness of a world where monsters are real.

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION. Bound by fate. Divided by duty. Yenni has never been this far from home. With only her wits, her strength, and her sacred runelore, the fierce Yirba warrior princess is alone in the Empire of Cresh. It's a land filled with strange magics and even stranger people-all of whom mistrust anyone who's different. But Yenni will prove herself, and find the cure for her father's wasting illness. She will not fail. No one warned her about the dragons. Especially not about him. Yet there is something powerful and compelling about the violet-black dragon known as Weysh. In human form he's muscular, beautiful-and completely infuriating. What kind of arrogant creature claims a stranger as his Given; as his destined mate? Yenni is no man's-or dragon's-plaything. But other magics must be at work here, because Weysh might just be her best hope at finding the answers she seeks. Only now Yenni can't tell if she's fighting an attraction to a dragon . . . or fighting fate itself.
