Ariel Lynn Wilson isn't your popular type, she isn't a anybody but then she isn't a nerd. She is just an average high school teen. Her parents are wealthy and she is a good child. Arden Holt is the school's bad ass, he is popular but is only popular by his badness and lack of good work. So what happened? Ariel made a mistake and slept with him. When he finds out he isn't going to want to have anything to do with the baby, but could his mind change, could this baby change him for the better?

Being overtaken by vampires and turned into slaves was life-changing, but for Ellanore, being sold to Raphael Petrovic was definitely life-changing. She's use to moving from home to home, but moving into a house with two brothers who both seem to take interest in her was the highest point on the scale of weird. Did I forget to mention that they're vampires, excluding Ellanore. . . Well they are and being stuck between two strong, determined vampires is not how Ellanore expected her stay at the Petrovic's to be, and she definitely didn't expect to fall for one. Having her mind over powered with the thought of leaving and staying Ellanore tries to figure out what she wants without causing any problems. But if you throw in some drama, lies, and delusional girls then someone's bound to get hurt in the end.

[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!
