You've never, ever read a book like this. When a sexually-transmitted plague breaks out in Ashley Young's small town, leaving its victims with a bizarrely amplified libido, everything about her life changes. DEAD IN BED is partly a suspense thriller with a strikingly unique story, partly a page-turning mystery about a disease that makes people hopelessly crave sexual contact, and partly a neo-western adventure in the American heartland. For readers who can handle a smart, controversial female protagonist who's willing to do anything -- no matter how difficult or morally questionable -- in order to survive, the series pulls them in like an unshakeable addiction. . . . Bailey Simms, teen author of DEAD IN BED, is stuck at home with a rare medical condition. Writing is her only escape, so she's determined to keep her salacious series hidden from her strict father. Soon an older boy starts to secretly help her, and Bailey finds new opportunities for freedom she's never had. But as DEAD IN BED grows in popularity, and Bailey's fans start to clamor for the sequel, she learns that being a successful Wattpad author may come with a terrifyingly dangerous price.

Jack Hansard is the man who can sell you anything. Luck in a bottle, fame in a box, dreams on a leash, you name it: if he doesn't have it, he'll convince you he has something better. He's a trader on what's known as the Black Market - the occult Black Market, that is. If you're in need of that extra special something to curse your ex-lover or win your fortune, Hansard's the man to go to. Just make sure you check the 'best before' date on anything you buy. This is Season 1 of the Jack Hansard short story series - each Episode is a separate story, but follows an overarching plot much like a TV series. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!

"They didn't want to be nothing- because of them, we are everything." Hundreds of years spiraling into the future, the word "Legacy" blazed in the heart of all that was human. Fate was already groping for their souls, ready to pull them out of the world they'd destroyed themselves. Stubbornly using damaged but still advanced technology, they fused their genes with those of the surviving nature around them and created their own form of human- the Leif Generation. Leifs were created with all types of nature- plants, animals, even sunlight. Cypress was born a descendant of the new humanity's first ever tribe - the Tree Leifs. Soon she'll be working among rulers. But she discovers that Trees, especially her abusive brother, hide darkness with them. Trees will do anything to keep their firm grip on the the new world. When Cypress discovers something deadly about herself, she has no choice but to become a rebel warrior and fight against her own destiny with everything she has.

{Highest #12 Adventure} A supernatural sword and sorcery adventure! When legendary Tilwen swordsman, Riposte Clasicant, is challenged to defend his actions toward a woman he doesn't love, he discovers her fiancé is a bigger monster than he is. In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of Rip Clasicant, who has neglected both duty and honor in recent decades. His life of debauchery often rubs society the wrong way, and just as often it pushes back. Only superior skill with a blade has kept him alive thus far. Pertuli, his sarcastic but well-meaning sidekick, has his doubts about how much longer his friend's fortune will last.

You. Sitting at your desk, or perhaps scrolling through your phone or slouching on the couch in your living room. You are so far ahead of this that you may not even relate in the slightest. But this. This was your corrupted beginning. Before the world was wiped fresh, this is what you were. ... It was the worst of times, it was the bes--... no, no, really, it really was the worst of times. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- Snippets is officially its own story. PLEASE (I would be on my knees except I'm kind of at my computer) comment, vote, TELL ME what you're thinking :) Because I KNOW you people think! And I LOVE that about you. And lastly? Enjoy... It's going to be quite an adventure ;) P.S. Snippets started as several separate story ideas I wrote down. Then one day I said, "Hey! Wouldn't it be cool if all of these could go together?" And well, here is the result! I know you won't be terribly disappointed, and if you are... well, I'm not a fancy company who can guarantee your reading-time back. I suppose I'll just have to do my best to not disappoint, eh? ... Challenge accepted ;)

At the close of the 'Destruction' - Mother (Terra) had finally had enough. No more would the humans be allowed to slaughter one another pointlessly. No more would they take the rest of her, and her other children, down with them in the process. Thus, she called forth Terra Natus (Earth Arisen): "They came from the trees, they came from the water, from the rocks, from the plants. Mother Terra calling her other children out from centuries of standing idle, martyrs of a dying world, to fight back. Some saw them it is said, saw them walk right up out of the water, saw a boulder unfold itself and stand, just as you or I might. One second a mighty tree, the next? A being, arms stretched up to the glorious sun. (And) No sooner did we see them, than they were shooting us down. We were finally paying for our sins, and for the sins of our parents, and their parents before them...It was a heavy debt to pay." Generations later, the Terra Brothers, or Protectors, haven't even seen a human near their borders in so long that rumors of their extinction has spread. Rumors which are about to be put to rest in a big way, when Isa (the human) and Salix (the Protector) find their paths inescapably interwoven in the pursuit of eliminating a threat to Mother - the likes of which hasn't been known since the age of human dominance. But what is it? And what could have been so terrible as to drive Isa within the Protector's borders in the first place, knowing she would most likely be killed? Furthermore, how will Salix and Isa's relationship develop as they come to find, much to their surprise, that the other is not exactly like what they had been lead to believe? Come inside and find out! * Copyright © 2016 by Nathalia. All rights reserved. * Original and epic cover art by @Neenerst - I mean seriously, look how she captured all the elements of the story.
