When I met him on a rainy afternoon the air smelt like gardenias. My black oxford pumps were soaked from accidentally stepping on a puddle, and the tiny yellow umbrella I held up barely saved me from the chilly rain. When I met him on a rainy afternoon, the sky was pink and blue. I was starving and almost craving to smell the stuffy scent of my closed up home's small living room. When I met him on a rainy afternoon, his son held my feet out of the blue and called me 'mum'. He rushed out of the restaurant only seconds later, his cheeks a pale flushed hue. When I met him one day on a rainy afternoon, he looked up into my eyes and apologized. And inside my head, I thought to myself... what a lovely way to meet a lovely man on such a lovely rainy afternoon. ••••••-••••••-••••••-••••••-••••••-•••••• 1st Draft - 15/03/18 2nd Draft - 08/08/20 Published : 28/08/21 | Paperback & Kindle Cover : Sierra Po Trailer : boba

When Aria's father sells her to a stranger from the north, she never expects to be cherished like a daughter. To live in a castle, showered with every luxury. Her sumptuous new life is every young girl's dream. But as Aria grows older she can no longer deny the mystery and strangeness of her beloved foster family. Especially the Greyback men. Nor can she ignore the dark menace of the woods beyond the castle. Aria is determined to unravel their secrets. Above all, those of Lucian Greyback, the enigmatic and unsettling man to whom she is betrothed. When her curiosity gets the better of her, Aria is compelled to venture into the forest and discover the truth. But beneath flesh and blood lies a beastly legacy. And a birthright she could never imagine. If you enjoyed the gothic, captivating world of mystery in Jane Eyre (but need a little more bite), you will love the suspenseful and alluring secrets of Aria's journey in this book.

Copyrighted 2017 *Completed* Highest rankings: #6 in Werewolf #1 in Wolves #3 in Featured He was said to be powerful, the most powerful of them all. A king of kings- a dark king. Complete control. He needed it- thrived on it. He was power, he was dark, and he was beautiful. They say he was a descendant of the first wolves- of shapeshifters so fierce they could kill with barely a glance. He was respected, revered. Feared. The King of the North. And we were the idiots sneaking into his territory. *Not your typical werewolf book* --please reframe from hateful comments directed at me or other readers who enjoy the story. *This book has no sexually mature scenes and is PG-13* *This book has nothing to do with The Game of Thrones, and is not a fanfic of any kind*

He was dangerous, she knew it. That kiss confirmed it. But not the kind of dangerous where she feared for her safety. Oh no, this was a decadent kind of dangerous. One she could quickly become addicted to. The kind she could end up dying for. Abigail Lane was a woman on the run. Ambiguity her closest friend. New York seemed the perfect place to hide, and disappear amongst the throngs of faceless people. By keeping her head down, and never drawing attention to herself, she managed to succeed at remaining hidden. That is until her world collided with Adam Steele. The man who refused to let her keep running. Adam was the master of his universe. The business world feared him, colleagues revered him, and women fell at his feet. But none of it inspired him, and all of it left him cold. Adam's life had become stuck in a meaningless professional stupor, and he was slowly losing himself along the way. That is until a chance meeting with a spunky waitress from Brooklyn changed his outlook on life forever. Both their lives transformed when fate stepped in one pivotal night, forcing opposites to attract. Abby couldn't seem to escape the disarming CEO who ignited a passion he wouldn't let her ignore. As new feelings begin to awaken inside, her past comes back to haunt her, threatening everything she held dear. Suddenly, Adam found himself in the middle of intrigue, danger and drag queens. Can Adam discover her secrets in time to protect her and stop Abigail, who gave him the one thing his money couldn't buy, from running again?

2016 Watty Award Winner for Most VORACIOUS Read Sample only. This book is PUBLISHED! How do you tell yourself not to breathe? He is my mate, and she is his everything. But he chose her, against every single instinct that we both know. For that, I have been whipped, shunned, shamed, disgraced, and broken. All for one moment of madness, I could not control. After two years, I left, unable to bear the pain and loneliness anymore. That was then. This is now. I am back, and I am not the juvenile I was. I am now a fully grown female. I feel his eyes on me, but I can't. I won't. I shouldn't. Time has healed my wounds, but not the deep scars the whip seared into my flesh or his indifference to my heart. Each breath is a pain, and his scent overwhelms me. But I can smell her in it. He still will not give her up, despite his own body crawling with a deep, physical desire that only a mate can satisfy. I breathe: I exist, barely. I am a midwife. I bring life into a cruel world that haunts me every day, and the Doctor I work with is the only one in this pack who holds faith in me. He is the one person who stands up for me - and I feel light again when I am with him. What kind of life is this when two mates cannot be together, yet every part of their primal soul yearns for it infinitely? What kind of cruel moon would torture a she-wolf like this? I can't go on, but I must. Whatever happens, I must attend to my purpose and give my miserable life some meaning; perhaps I can snatch some joy in pieces, but now I see that he needs me - but he also wants her too. How do you tell yourself not to breathe?

In the year 1945, Tom Riddle was prepared to begin his reign as the Dark Lord.

Hermione Granger, the last to survive Voldemort's final attack, is forced to face her most colossal challenge that will weave her through each influential time. With a time-turner around her neck and friends she never expected by her side, Hermione must learn her role in changing the world as she once knew it to a world where freedom and hope abound. But Tom Riddle won't go down easy. He is determined to follow through with his plans, and a bushy haired girl has no chance of changing his mind... Right?
