Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four. ***** Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond. Content Warnings: Violence, semi-graphic gore, character deaths, profanity, mild drug and alcohol usage, abuse discussed but not shown, and morally-questionable people doing morally-questionable things.

[Soon by WATTPAD BOOKS] In the prestigious race of stars, Sozo must hide the truth of who she is or pay with her life, but her blossoming relationship with the most talented competitor threatens everything she's worked for. ***** Every ten years, the lucky chosen bond with stars and race to win a wish. Any wish. Sozo is one of the lucky chosen, but she has a secret: as an Omen -- cursed beings that can transform into monsters -- she's forbidden from competing. Discovery would mean her death. Can she hope to keep her identity a secret, let alone win the race, especially as the talented and sunny Naqi enters the picture? When Sozo is given an ultimatum, she has to choose: betray her Omen people, or betray the people who are slowly, surely, becoming like a family to her. --- WATTYS AWARD 2020 "Bar none, this was [Senior Editorial Specialist] Amanda's absolute favourite read from the Wattys this year. It makes you cry, just from pure, uncontainable joy, and the ending kept us reading until nearly 6am. Everything about this story is beautiful. We were astounded that anyone could create something so magnificent and moving and magical. This level of storytelling mastery will never not blow us away." [Word Count: 70,500]

wearing a large, scratchy wool cardigan with big silver buttons that your mother bought while visiting prince edward island twenty-five years ago on her honeymoon, drinking large volumes of earl grey tea, which you always manage to accidentally let steep for too long, and then add too much sugar to, to compensate for the bitterness, speaking about my past just vaguely and bitterly enough that people wonder what it was that made me leave that school in the east to come back home, practically living in the coffeeshop on campus, sipping on macchiatos while reading through my notes, wearing very heavy, clunky low-top brown doc martens, which often make me stumble on the stairs in the science building, reading second-hand copies of classic plays, which i aquired when the theater department at my old high school was clearing out their storage loft, performing dramatic readings of edgar allen poe and lord byron to my cat when im home alone with their, drinking cheap wine anytime theres a reason for any kind of celebration or making up an excuse when there isnt one, playing my chet baker record, which i bought for one dollar at a local antique mall, at full volume late at night while i pine after the girl who never loved me back, or who never knew i loved her, at least.
