I don't have a description yet. Give me a week. ;)

The clock was ticking, measuring time down to the last second. The last heartbeat. The last breath. The last moment I would have on this Earth. It was a slippery slope and I knew when I saw the bottom, that was it. My time was up. When Georgiana Vertigo was given only a handful of years left to live, it was hard to see the possibilities of what the future could bring. With the past locked away in the dark recesses of her mind, Georgiana set off to live the last few years as best as she could. Quicker than any Slayer before her, she worked her way up the ranks of Sword & Arrow to become the Guild's Second in Command. When it comes time for the current Leader to step down and chose a successor, Georgiana is her would-be choice. However, before she can step into the role, she must solve the current case she is working on. A serial killer is murdering prominent members of the Otherworld community and leaving them on display in very public, very human places. It's not the first murder case she's ever worked but there is something different about this one. The simple assignment is soon made difficult when the latest intended victim survives and she's forced to protect him. A task that should be easy, even with the time constraint of solving the case in a week, but it's clear everything will become complicated when she learns who she'll be protecting and who is committing the murders.

My mother always told me when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When someone knocks you down, you get right back up. You fight the good fight until you have nothing left. You fight with honor, you protect the ones you love, and if you just happen to die in the process, than you do so with dignity and grace. What my mother neglected to tell me during my studies was that you don't always get what you want, the outcome you think is coming doesn't always happen, and when the smoke clears, you're always going to be the last one standing. By the end of The Certainty, Georgiana Vertigo is left with nothing more than her life, something many people would be more than happy to have. However, Georgiana is left to her own devices in a strange city, alone and heartbroken with regular intense bouts of depression. In starting a new life with the Guild, Georgiana has everything she needs in order to move on with her life and keep her mind off the past. Only problem is, the past is never truly forgotten and no matter how hard you try to shake them, the feelings that go along with the memories don't just fade away. ~ * ~ Alright, chickens. You asked for it (some of you at least) and here it is...well...part of it. Like I've told a few of you, this is a work in progress. I add pieces to it when I think of them. The posting on this story will NOT be regular but thankfully for you, I have quite a bit of it done. I just haven't decided if the path I take it down is the right one. So. I hope you enjoy it and I will give you a forewarning that as the story progresses, it gets a bit more adult. For those of us just joining the party because they stumbled across it in the Paranormal category, there is a whole series of books you have to read until you get to this one. Go start with The Beginning. You can find it under "My Works" on my home page.

It takes place during The Certainty between the chapters Heartache and Angel Talk and My Time Has Come. The poem up there I found online. I don't know the title or who originally wrote it. Enjoy. :o)

Aidan looked torn and looked down. I looked over at Michael but he refused to look at me. So I turned to Raphael. "Don't do this to me." "Your road is a lonely one, Daughter. I'm afraid circumstances have forced your hand. It will be painful, I know. But such is life, your life." "You can't take both of them from me," I whispered. "Then I make you a deal in exchange for your promise." He made sure he had my attention before he continued. "One may remain with you until a month after your graduation." My eyes grew wide. "You can't do this." ~ * ~ Decisions. Decisions. Decisions. The Last Book In The Illusion Of Certainty Saga

Georgiana Vertigo has lost something important. The boy she loved has turned into a Vampire and left her reeling and dealing with the mess he left behind. She tried to cope with his betrayal but no matter what she does, nothing works. To everyone else, she looks like she hit rock bottom and is finally clawing her way out. But only one person knows the truth, only one person knows what's going on inside her head. That she's faking it to the people that love her most. After the failed Blood Trial in Vampire Domain, Gee is left with a stronger bond to Michael. But she won't do anything about it even though they both want to. Nothing is physically in their way but Gee waits in vain, sacrificing one love for another which she is sure never to get back. As time drags on, she is left with the choice of moving on like everyone else, or staying as she is, a ghost of the girl she once used to be, the true embodiment of a Forsaken.

After her near death experience at the beginning of the semester, Georgiana Vertigo is trying to move on with her life. She takes several steps to make this happen, dating the reformed playboy Aidan Hanover, staying as far away from a certain Vampire named Michael, and of course acting like a normal teenage girl. But when her Vampire decides it's best for him leave, Georgiana's world is thrown back into orbit. With the constant threat of the old Vampire Master and the thought of the future, all she wants is for everything to stop spinning. However, by the time the ride ends, Georgiana is left with a huge betrayal, a stronger bond, and even more blood loss than she can ever hope to imagine. The Illusion is the second book in The Illusion of Certainty series and will leave you guessing and questioning everyone's motives in Georgiana's life.

A little blood, a love triangle, more danger than one girl can handle. What more could a girl ask for? Georgiana Vertigo has the perfect life or at least that's how she views it. Her family is perfect, her friends are even better. But a wrench is thrown into works when five feet and eleven inches of mystery walks into her life by the name of Michael Thor. He's everything she wants but there's one little problem. She can't have him. Because he's a Vampire and Slayers aren't allowed to date Vampires. Someone else has taken an interest in Gee, someone she's known for a long time. Aidan Hanover is everything she wants and he's normal, everything she can have. The only problem is his reputation and if he's really ready to get serious. To make matters worse, someone on campus takes an interest in her, a bad interest. Everyone isn't who they say they are and Georgiana learns it all the hard way. In the first book of The Illusion of Certainty Saga, the waters start off calm and end with ten foot seas. Leaving you wondering what can happen next. © SCCourtney
