Hectic. That was the word to spring to Desiree Love's mind when she thought of her day. She lost her job, lost her lover... Things couldn't get any worse, right? And then on that dark night she met worse in the back seat of her car as a weapon was pressed to her temple and an arm secured around her throat. So, lost her job, lost her lover, and now lost her freedom. However, was being kidnapped by Piper Redding such a bad thing? ***I decided to post this with an R-rating due to some violent/disturbing content.

(sequel to Finally 18) Life has finally taken its turn. And being eighteen wasn't exactly the bee's knees. But, like, maybe finally being absolute'll be? Alex and Cooper are together and in love and happy and wonderful. Well, almost. They may be older now, but they aren't wiser. At all.

After a particularly terrible experience with her adoptive father and a few drinks, Rebecca Harrison finds her much-needed escape from reality in her soon-to-be biology teacher. When the two meet again at the beginning of the school year, neither know what to make of the situation. But their conflict with each other is no match for the conflict Rebecca faces with her adoptive father, and the two soon find themselves developing a relationship that tests both of their willingness to let others in. For entirely different reasons, they find themselves pushing each other away. Until they realize that their reasons aren't so different at all. This story is girlxgirl, teacherxstudent, and it deals with topics such as abuse, alcoholism, and suicide. It's my best work but it can be depressing at times & may be triggering to some. [Editing on-going, Sequel - TBD]

A full-time surgeon and full-time mother, Dr. Casey Kenny's third career is damage control. Casey's days are spent covering her husband's tracks as his constant scandals begin to unravel; but living in the public eye as the wife of a United States senator, Casey knows that an unhappy marriage is just her pill to swallow.

Casey finds herself in deeper than she ever anticipated. When Wilson Kenny is assassinated mere days after his affair hits the news, all fingers point to Casey. As always, it's her job to pick up the pieces, but now it's her own past that she needs to cover. Cover art by the wildly talented @JaneDoeSmith1! Trigger warning: discussion of DV/IPV
