~complete~ Charlotte is as sweet as a strawberry. She's the kind of person who will drop everything just to help you, just to put a smile on your face. She's as sweet as the sugar that constantly runs through her bloodstream, and as excitable as the rush that comes with it. And then there's Benjamin, who's as sour as a lemon. The last thing on this Godforsaken planet he wants to do is acquaint himself with her. While Charlotte is kind and caring, he's rude and vulgar, while she's friendly and innocent, he's crass and mean. So how in the hell is that going to turn out?

Summer Jacobs knew full well about her town’s tradition. Every year at the end of the summer, a party would be held on school grounds without the knowledge of the parents or the teachers. It had been happening since before Summer was born and never once was anyone the wiser. This year however, everyone was going to find out. Summer had planned a weekend of alcohol, bad decisions and horrendous photo’s which she would later un-tag herself from on Facebook. A whole weekend with her friends at the biggest party of the year, without any worries or parents telling her what to do. So how she ended up trapped in the school with a deranged psycho killing her classmates off one by one, she will never know. It wouldn’t have been as bad if she was trapped on her own. She would have been happier to face the lunatic solo rather than be trapped with a guy who kept using the life or death situation to make passes at her. His theory was being so close to death should definitely loosen her up, and by ‘loosen up’ he definitely meant ‘get naked.’ Along with his friends who between them had the IQ of a baby tree stump, an outcast who probably still had Spiderman bed sheets and the cheerleaders who were more worried about all the blood staining their new white jeans, they had to somehow make it out of there alive. And to think, Summer’s biggest worry that weekend was waking up with a brutal hangover… ©makeandoffer

[This is an extended sample of a now published book. See inside for more details] ~ "I know you have to get back soon, but there's just something that I want to try first," he breathed. As his eyelids lowered, I let mine do the same, focusing on nothing but my heartbeat and his hands around my waist as I felt his lips finally press themselves against mine. And as he did that, a star - somewhere in our galaxy - exploded into a million pieces of stardust that rained down into our atmosphere. I hadn't been what he was looking for either, but he'd found me anyway. Copyright © 2014 IziKing. All rights reserved.

Some girls are tough, but Daphne is tough in a different way. She lost her mother to a short fight with cancer when she was fourteen years old, leaving her alone with her father. After her death, he became depressed and slowly started to deteriorate for the last two years. But she doesn’t have time to dwell on it because the medical bills from both her father and mother are only piled upon every day bills for food, heat, water, and rent. Her father’s disabled checks don’t cover much, so Daphne got a job at the hardware store down the street, which helped a little bit more. Enter Ethan. After a few recurring appearances, he made her an offer she couldn’t refuse… literally. That’s how she ended up fighting in front of crowds in a deserted warehouse. It was illegal on many levels, but the cash she brought home every Friday and Saturday was impossible to turn down. On one of her regular nights of fighting, she met eyes with a stranger in the crowd. She didn’t think anything of his brooding stare; there were lots of creeps who came to watch the fight for the boobs and blood. But when she saw those same eyes the following Monday, everything changed. Who was this guy? How close is he trying to get to Daphne and why? How long can she continue this double life that puts her in danger so that she can save her father’s life? And the burning question Daphne has to decide: Is it all worth it?
