Twenty years ago, vampires emerged from the shadows and took their place among humans. With their King and the government working together, a fragile peace has been put in place. However, despite their efforts, deep-rooted fear and animosity prevents the next leap of co-existence. One such advocate of vampire dominance is no other than the Vampire Prince. A world where humans serve vampires is all he cares about. When he takes the throne, peace will be the last thing on his mind. Rin Elizabeth Borek wants nothing more than to survive. She keeps her head down and struggles to maintain normalcy in her life. But when their path cross, their entire worlds turn upside down. Trying to prevent a national outcry, the Royal family offers Rin and her parent's an opportunity. In exchange for normalcy, Rin has to teach the value of humanity to the Vampire Prince. Can Rin thaw the Prince's heart or will he succeed in pulling her into submission? I like to thank @skylarjh for the awesome cover!

Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.

Sixteen year old Kait Lenox has a reputation as the weird girl in her high school, mostly because of her ex-best friend turned mean popular girl, Ariel, but maybe it has a little to do with the fact that Kait has a hobby crashing funerals. At one of these, Kait is outted by the most popular guy in school, Ethan Ripley. Yet, instead of humiliating her for all the world to see, he asks for her help, and Kait finds herself entangled in a murder mystery. Not only is the thrill of the mystery exciting, but more importantly Ethan knows her name! A little sleuthing is well worth that!
