Lacey used to be a thief until her mother died- Then she decided to leave it all behind. 4 years later, she's back at it. Somebody has kidnapped Cameron's mom and is asking for Aphrodite's diamond in exchange. The heist seems easy enough, but the crew keeps running into frauds. The crew consists of Adam (a tech kinda kid), Devon (the best friend), CeCe (class A bitch), Colton (The new kid), and Cameron (the ever changing love interest). On top of that, Lacey seems so unsure of herself now, and emotions are on the wire. Add in an unlikely ally- Weston; who competes with Cameron for her heart, and this is gonna be one hell of a heist. *This is my first story on Wattpad and it's not my best work so read at your own risk.*

In the beginning, there was Nothing. And then a rush of creation ending with the world itself, full of Wonder. But all would not be well for long as tragedy strikes the Heavens, leading to the shattering of its gardens, and the creation of what mortals calls Night and Day. A prequel to 'Light From Above' this is my NaNoWriMo project for 2017. For now it is rough, though I will try to keep Grammar and spelling errors to a minimum.

WATTPAD ORIGINAL EDITION Island princess Yenni is searching for a way to save her father's life, but a handsome yet infuriating shapeshifting dragon becomes an unexpected distraction. ***** As a princess of the Moonrise Isles, Yenni is all-but-engaged to the prince of a neighbouring tribe. She knows it's her duty to ensure peace for her people, but as her father's illness steadily worsens, she sets out on a sacred journey to the empire of Cresh, determined to find a way to save him at any cost, even though failure could mean the wrath of her gods and ruin for her people. One further complication? On the day she arrives at the Prevan Academy for Battle and Magical Arts, she meets an arrogant dragon shifter who claims she's his "Given", or destined mate. Muscular, beautiful (and completely infuriating), he's exactly the kind of distraction Yenni can't afford while her father's life hangs in the balance. But by rejecting him, is she fighting her feelings -- or her fate?

When a mysterious illness spreads from the deinos to the humans, Carmen must start surviving, trapped on an island that's no longer home, where the dead won't stay buried, and the people are more dangerous than the dinosaurs themselves.

❝The world is a madhouse, and all the people in it are delusional and blind.❞ Pai Momozono can see 'monsters' of long-forgotten folklore. As she watches the shaky balance of the status quo that keeps two halves of one world crumble, she has to uncover the secrets of years she can't remember to find out which world she belongs to. All while one who doesn't have all the strings plays puppet master from the shadows. × TL;DR - identity crisis. Dark Fantasy | Romance | New Adult | Action | Horror | Diverse Lit | Japanese folklore Longer summary is inside. Season 1-3 complete, finale season coming soon. Pretty long chapters (don't @ me, you have been warned). My love of Japanese culture inspired this. This is realistically written, not an anime pass-off. THIS IS ONLY AVAILABLE ON WATTPAD. IF YOU'RE READING THIS ELSEWHERE, PLEASE REPORT IT.

Book 4 is coming soon! :) "With wilderness survival, a juicy love triangle, and more twists and turns than a roller coaster, this fast-paced novel had me holding my breath until the very last page!" - Kimberly Derting (author of the popular Body Finder series, The Pledge series, and her the Taking sci-fi series ) "This thrilling story is a dramatic entanglement of mystery, deception and teen romance. The action flows like a brisk mountain stream interspersed with rapids, holding suspense to last page."- Kirkus Review ======================= Grace has lived in the Smoky Mountains all her life, patrolling with her forest ranger father who taught her about wildlife, tracking, and wilderness survival. When her dad goes missing on a routine patrol, Grace refuses to believe he's dead and fights the town authorities, tribal officials, and nature to find him. One day, while out tracking clues, Grace is rescued from danger by Mo, a hot guy with an intoxicating accent and a secret. As her feelings between him and her ex-boyfriend get muddled, Grace travels deep into the wilderness to escape and find her father. Along the way, Grace learns terrible secrets that sever relationships and lives. Soon she's enmeshed in a web of conspiracy, deception, and murder. And it's going to take a lot more than a compass and a motorcycle (named Lucifer) for this kick-butting heroine to save everything she loves.
