Written by Jenny Rosen & Edited/Developmentally Edited by Kristen Maglonzo @kaelking12 Love's a disappearing act, death's an illusion. When Hailey Anderson, daughter of a dangerous D.C. senator, slams into Caleb Evans, a pretty boy with a million-dollar smile and a million ugly secrets, she figures fate has finally given her an escape from the broken home she's desperate to distance herself from. Their seemingly star-crossed encounter results in her being drugged and dragged out of Washington as Caleb's ugly background bubbles to the surface. Caught between deadly family ties, financial desperation, and an intriguing new hostage, Caleb struggles to walk the line between loyalty and frightening new feelings for Hailey. When his brothers discover Caleb distancing himself from their last chance plan for survival turned federal crime, they stop at nothing to tear the two of them apart. When helping Hailey means losing everything, will Caleb stay barbwire-tied to his brothers or hold on to a hostage who's got a hold on him? ***The Runaways sequel, WANTED is now available on my profile!***

(Trailer available in the external link.) A twisted fairytale: How far would you go to get your perfect fairytale ending? The prince had managed to find the strange, ethereally beautiful girl who'd fled from that fateful Coronation Ball, with only a single glass slipper left behind as a clue. But what did Cinderella do after she got her Happily Ever-After? She did get it, didn't she? Rae Wyman dreams of a girl, every night. She haunts him with her mellifluous voice, her mesmerizing eyes and her small, arcane smiles, making him yearn for her even though he's never seen her before in his life. Yet there's a strange feeling blossoming inside him every day, a feeling which he can't describe, growing so wild and restless that he doesn't know where his sanity went. Why does it feel like... ...she'd known his weakest point? And had used it to destroy him to a million little pieces? "If I try to touch her, And I bleed, I bleed, And I breathe, I breathe no more." (Evanescence, Breathe No More.) Note: This story is NOT horror and certainly NOT Gothic...well, maybe a little Gothic. :) [ His Evil Cinderella Copyright © Saleha Kamran Afzal 2015] ........................................................................................................................... <Please don't be a silent reader.

Soon, Addie learns that her beloved library will be torn down to make room for a larger facility, and she has to make a choice. Fight, or let go? To complicate things, she finds herself attracted to Blake, who is engaged to someone else. Will Blake and Addie ever resolve their differences?

A person's life is shaped and moulded around their history and their future. Their memories and secrets create the person that they are, and their hopes and dreams create the person that they are destined to be. But what if you had no memories or secrets, no hopes or dreams. What if you lived namelessly, forgetting everything you knew every few days. Imagine if you had to find out who you were, where you were, and what your purpose was, and then try to live a normal life, despite not even knowing your own name. You're about to read the story of a girl who plans to do exactly that, before she has another blackout.
