Eboni Ames grew up in The Quarters-a tiny, but historic, Black settlement just outside Whitman, Arizona. Her classmate, Ahn Ji-Yeong, grew up in the only Asian family in Whitman and harbored a secret crush on Eboni. Eventually, they both left their hometown to follow their dreams. Eboni's vision of a being a celebrity chef faded in California, where the foodie scene was flooded with thousands of other wannabes, and her family soul food recipes weren't enough to catch the eye of foodies seeking flashier fare. Meanwhile, AJ became a K-pop and K-drama megastar, sitting at the top of the Billboard charts and the Netflix top ten. When Eboni is forced to return home and take a day job while trying to get her soul food catering business off the ground, she finds that AJ has come home too. The bright spotlights of the K-pop industry cast a very dark shadow, and AJ needs a break. Still carrying a torch for his childhood love, AJ offers his Korean fried chicken recipe to help draw attention to Eboni's business. As their lives become more and more intertwined, the heat turns up outside of the kitchen as well. But when their pasts come back to haunt them, Eboni and AJ will have to make tough choices about what they are and want to be to each other.

My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

In a universe where planets are rated by their lethality, Earth stands as a notorious Class 12 Deathworld- home to crushing gravity, vicious predators, and unrelenting natural disasters. When 15-year-old Amelia Hartley from Twickenham, becomes the first human ever admitted to the Elite Galactic Academy of Sciences, she steps into a world of fragile aliens accustomed to gentle gravities and peaceful existences. But prejudice simmers among her classmates, who view her as a brute from a barbaric rock. As tensions boil into open conflict, an external attack threatens to destroy the academy. In the chaos, Amelia suffers a near-fatal wound that should end her-but humanity's unyielding resilience turns the tide. This #HFY tale celebrates the indomitable spirit of Earthling's in a galaxy that underestimates them.
