*FEATURED ON THE OFFICIAL WATTPAD INSTAGRAM (10-28-15) *New Cover (8/18/21) "Some secrets aren't worth telling. Trust me, I have my fair share of them, and for the sake of everyone, I plan on keeping them to myself. My past is my past, and it's going to stay that way." **************************************************************************************** Emily Brazki's life mainly consists of cotillions, parties, rich (and, therefore, busy) parents, and complicated romance. Although, to a stranger, her life may seem ideal and perfect, it is anything but. After all, the cons always tag alongside the pros: ugly drama, fake friends, destructive secrets, scandalous lies, the occasional party, and tears. Lots of tears. Add a hint of stress, a drizzle of bad history, a few teaspoons of intricate relationships, and a splatter of alcohol, and you've got the recipe for disaster. ***************************************************************************************** Highest Ranking: #212 Romance - 5/5/15

(Chapter 1 only) In the winter of 1941-1942, Leningrad is under siege, and Karen Hamilton, a seventeen-year-old American musician, finds herself trapped and struggling to survive. Throughout the city, people are dying of starvation and frostbite, and Karen knows that if she doesn't escape immediately, she will share their fate. If she has any hope of leaving Russia and reuniting with her fiancé, Bobby, in New York, she must do the impossible: cross enemy lines and then stow away. On her harrowing journey, Karen encounters Petr, a young conscripted Russian soldier. She isn't sure she can trust him-he is equally wary of her. But as the two join forces in order to stay alive, an unexpected romance takes root. Now, as Karen gets closer to the reality of escape, she has a choice to make: Will she return to a safe life in America with Bobby, or remain in war-torn Russia with Petr? This is a sample chapter of the book that will be available October 18 from Lake Union Publishing.

A storm of biblical proportions hit the western United States. In its centre, the small town of Springbrook was flooding, residents forced to evacuate to a local landmark: the dark and towering Castle Moore. In the chapel behind, lay the body of a fallen angel. Trapped in his own mind, the angel was jerked from his cycle of pain by a teenaged boy looking for his father. His memories hurt, and he was unsure of so much, but there was one thing he knew for certain. The harsh winds, and pounding rain were only the surface of the storm that was upon them. A war was coming: in hell, in heaven, and on earth, with the castle in the centre of it all. For its walls protected something, something the armies of hell would do anything to possess, and something that called to the angel-like a lost brother.
