NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON AMAZON AND BARNES&NOBLE! THIS IS A SAMPLE OF THE PUBLISHED BOOK. _____________________________ Livvie Jefferson is lame. If it weren't for the secret list of crazy things she'd like to do, she'd be less interesting than a piece of stale bread. Harvey Lockwell is a God. An unattainable God. Livvie's content with staring Harvey down from afar and wiping the drool from her chin, until everything changes when she's forced to have actual contact with him during their after-school tutoring seasons. In a cringe-worthy chain of events, Livvie's boring life turns into a catastrophic mess when Harvey ends up finding her secret list. Things take another turn for the worse when Livvie accidentally runs away from home while on a high-speed chase straddled to the back of Harvey's motorcycle. Not only does she have to endure the embarrassment from being caught with a bucket list at the ripe age of seventeen that includes losing her virginity, but she also has to figure out exactly what Harvey ended up doing that caused them to be chased out of town by a band of criminals and how to fix it. Crazy house parties, grungy motel rooms, unexpected make-out sessions, bad dancing, and a scandalous twist are just the beginning. For a girl who's never done anything remotely exciting, Livvie Jefferson is in for some pretty bad things.

"I find it ironic that we, as humans, are attracted to fortune and fame. I've always wondered what it's like to live in poverty, in hunger, in pain. We, the people of today, are obsessed with things. I wonder what it would be like to be obsessed with values, or with personalities. I wonder what it would be like to be obsessed with God. I guess it's only a matter of time until I find out." Sabrina Palmer is on top. As a high-class editor in the fashionable New York City, NY, she has everything that she could ever need. So, when her boss comes to her, telling her that she needs to find a new approach to her writing and editing, Sabrina is dumbstruck. Luckily for her, her friend Max is living in India, and he invites her there for a week to learn about the ways of the people and to possibly write a story on them. While there, Sabrina is shocked at the things she learns;she's shocked at the things she never knew before. She decides to stay for an extra week, and then another week, until she realizes she doesn't want to go back to New York. She wants to stay in India until she learns how to find God, until she can learn to pray. Follow Sabrina as she travels to India, China, Ethiopia, and beyond, and watch as she connects with people throughout the world. And maybe when she meets you, she'll teach you what she learned. She'll teach you to pray.

They say one mistake can change your life; I’d never realised how true this was until it applied to me. I live in a world filled with violence, grief and death; a world where one wrong move, one mistake will get me and my family killed. I am the most wanted person in the Werewolf world. Why? I kill for a living, tearing families apart, exterminating whole packs, killing mates, destroying trust and hurting anyone who happens to land on Rieker’s radar. I’ve been in this game for seven hundred years; albeit unwillingly. And over time, I had developed a taste for blood, the feel of sinking a knife into my targets, the smell of their fear; it was all part of the hunt and I could no longer blame Rieker for my sins. Hunting has become as much part of me as being a werewolf. Unfortunately, my time of destruction is coming to a close and the hunter is about to become the hunted. The problem for them is that if I don’t wish to be found; I won't be, at least not until my latest mission proves to be my downfall. It only takes one careful wolf for me to get caught and soon one mistake turns into a world of trouble. One that may end in my demise. *Book one of The Mate Chronicles.* Cover made by IsaSecret.
