A lovestruck demigoddess, unaware of her royal status, makes a shocking discovery about her family, and impulsively follows Hades to the underworld to escape Zeus's wrath. ******* Lexi Maxwell has grown up surrounded by wealth and privilege, but also by rules. The rare moments of freedom that she enjoys come when she's out horseback riding, but even then there are strictures on where she can go-and with whom. When she arrives home for a weekend-long celebration, Lexi is surprised by the number of eligible bachelors who vie for her attention. She doesn't have a lot of experience with the opposite sex, but these loudmouth, arrogant boys fail to impress her. Enter the mysterious Luke Carrington. Lexi is instantly drawn to him, but despite his charm and intelligence, her parents and godfather warn her to stay away from him. Lexi, however, cannot be deterred. When she learns that her life has been one long lie, and the people claiming to be her family aren't who they say they are, Lexi turns to Luke for solace. It doesn't take long for him to earn her trust, and her heart, and suddenly Lexi is willing to follow him anywhere to keep him close. Even into the underworld.

Mr. Watson came up with another bright idea for a project - to write a novel. It can be anything, he said. Anything as long as the readers'll be interested. I was ecstatic. I really am. Or I really WAS, for that matter. Up until he announced that we would be doing the project in pairs, and the person who I picked, out of the other twenty eight members of the class, was King Madison. Oh well. Let the novel wars begin. {e-mails and texts format}

[coming this summer] Preston Declan, when solidly on ground, is witty and undeniably charming. But the moment he boards any airplane, his bone-threading phobia of flying seeps in, forcing him to succumb to his inner fears. Jupiter Hale is neutral about planes - doesn't love them nor dislikes them. She's been on one enough times to call the airline her second home considering that she's tossed between her parents every other month. Besides being placed as plane partners, Preston can't deny Jupiter the fact that she calms his plane anxiety. Just her touch makes him feel fuzzy, and frankly, he unearths emotions alien to Jupiter. Turns out Preston is going to need all the tranquility he can muster the moment their airplane is caught in severe storm, resulting in much delay. Romance doesn't come without a bit of Turbulence. - Short Story #17 // Humor #103 - Cover credits to @mags_73
