❣️Wattpad Featured Story❣️ Can she love a haunted man? Scout Lawson is on her way to start a new job for the very rich and very reclusive George Wilder. George was a rock star whose fairy-tale marriage to the beautiful Tessa Richardson Wilder ended tragically when she died in a terrible fall at their beautiful seaside home, Farraway Mist. Scout has her own reasons for wanting to get away, and spending some time at the remote location in Cornwall sounds like the perfect solution. However, strange things start to happen almost as soon as she arrives, leaving Scout shaken and questioning her decision. George Wilder, too, stirs feelings in her that she thought she'd put away forever. How could she possibly have feelings for someone so taciturn, so mean? And he was married to one of the most beautiful women in the world, their love for each other was famous; surely he couldn't have feelings for her? ?? "Hello," she said, holding her hand out. "I'm Scout." "You're a girl," he said, surprise making him blunt. "And you're American." She bit her lips together. Fuck. She looked at him. "Yes on both counts." She took a deep breath. "Not what you were expecting?" He blinked at her, looking her up and down. "Uh, no, to be perfectly honest." He jammed his hands into the pockets of his jeans. "Is it going to be a problem?" she asked. "Should I try to get the driver back? Though in my defense, I know my application did mention both those facts." "Oh, I have no doubt," he responded curtly. "I'm not always the most observant. I probably just saw your name and photograph and assumed you were a man--" And oh shit, had he said that out loud? This was not a good beginning. ?? **Warning: Mature Content**

🅦🅐🅣🅣🅨🅢 ➋⓿➊➑ 🅢🅗🅞🅡🅣🅛🅘🅢🅣 (𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 2) **Incomplete/on hold** During a terrible nationwide drought, desert--land stretches as far as the eye can see. Corbin is a Water Witcher, who can sense and find water beneath the ground, but doesn't advertise it due to fear of being enslaved for government purposes. Drifting through the wasteland, he runs into a pair of siblings desperate to survive and learns that first impressions are deceiving. Especially Everleigh. There's a child-like innocence about her, yet she shows zero hesitation in murdering a desert thief. Thanks to past betrayals, Corbin keeps to himself, but a barbaric new law forces him to step out of his comfort zone. There are ways around this law, some are legal, but most are not. Either way, he's is not losing sight of the two siblings and will even risk revealing his gift of water witching if it means helping them. Limits are tested, loyalty is questioned, and trust becomes fragile, but if there is one thing threading their lives together, it's the determination to survive living in a time of thirst. ♡♡ What the critics are saying ♡♡ "I just wanted to tell you that your first chapter was one of the best intro chapters I've read on Wattpad.

*A Vampire Academy AU fanfic* An AU fic that branches away from the main storyline during Shadow Kiss: after the cabin, fight, and cave rescue. Dimitri's body isn't there - so he has been turned. Or has he? When he returns, he and Rose make their relationship public. Lissa plans *everybody's* future. Dimitri and Rose kick a** at Rose's trials, Abe, Janine, Art (not dead in this au), Alberta, Kirova, Victoria, Olena support Rose and Dimitri, and Rose realizes that she now has a wonderful family. Romitri fluff, mainly. Rated T for romance, some innuendo; nothing graphic. COMPLETE PS - I am sorry to say that i won't be writing the planned sequels to Coming Home to You or No One Ever Looks Up. I'm not really in the Vampire Academy fandom anymore, much as I love Vampire Academy, and I have too many demands on my time just now to do them justice. If any of you are interested in writing a sequel / follow-up to either or both of these, PM me. I would be happy to chat about it and/or beta. Please also send me a link when you publish, and I'll link to it here and on the other sites this is crossposted on.
