Samuel Brandt woke up with his thoughts written all over his body. His brother woke up with his head missing. His sister woke up to find that her skin would crack open unless she stayed in water. All of the other children in the secluded Iowa town of Oak Knoll woke up having undergone strange transformations. Now, they are all forced to live at 407 West Marshall Street, the mysterious house outside of town. With the new name of The Boy with Words for Skin, Samuel wants nothing more than to hide from his new life. He painfully and unpredictably sheds his skin, there is a Voice in the entryway closet that is often cruel, and-perhaps worst of all for a naturally shy boy-the other children look to him as a leader. As his seven-year-old brother struggles with their new life, as terrifying growls start to come from the pitch black basement, and as his feelings for a girl begin to grow, The Boy with Words for Skin realizes that he wants to change. He wants to put others first, learn from his peers, and let himself hope that things will get better. The Boy with Words for Skin is the first book in the 407 West Marshall Street series. Each book will advance the story but be told from a different character. Book 2 will be The Girl without Eyes.

What if Mr. Darcy was more determined to have Elizabeth? No matter the price? What if Lydia's situation forced Elizabeth to accept his advances? Will Elizabeth's prejudice, anger, and hatred for Mr. Darcy persist . . . or will she realize that love is sometimes found in places she never expected it to be found? An alternate ending to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, currently my favorite book of all time. May change the rating later. Hope you enjoy!

Jack Johnson is possibly the most average, unsexy, unexciting alpha to ever walk the planet- according to him. He's pushing thirty five, working a dead end desk job, and mate-less to top it all off. It's not that he's uninterested in finding a mate, it's just that the mate he wants is totally out of the question. His boss' daughter. Nineteen year old, blonde omega, Summer Anthony, who always seems to be around the office with her boyfriend, leaving that addicting scent in her wake. If there's one thing Jack refuses to be: that's a cradle snatcher. Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics (Cover Image Pictures belong to their respective owners.)

After admittedly the world's crappiest suicide attempt, eighteen year old Charlie Hogan cannot be trusted to be home alone and is shipped across the country to stay with an absentee, dead beat dad in Florida. And thus begins a summer of transformation; of beaches and swampland, retirement homes and the Electro Complex; an anarchic, anachronistic, apocalyptic world filled up with violence and hedonism, home to the best friends Charlie will ever find. And then there's this mixed up boy- the kind who shoots lightning bolts up your spine, right into your skull- who's about to screw with Charlie's whole world. Forget everything you know about boy meets girl, Electro is a hot wet soup of gender identity, Dr Freud, Dr seuss, interminable sexual obsession and prosthetic penises...[hs au]

If you've read FINDING SAM, then you've met the Erik's twin sister Olivia and his best friend Josh. This is their story. When undercover detective Josh Morin is almost killed in a drug bust gone wrong, the one thing that continues to haunt him are the words he never got to say to his best friend's sister. "I love you." But even as the demons that haunt his recovery threaten to destroy the relationship they've nurtured through the years, there's one thing that Josh has never considered. Olivia just might love him, too. For Olivia Firelli, life as a widowed mother would have been much harder were it not for her childhood friend, Josh. And after almost losing him the first time, she knows she can no longer keep her feeling buried forever... not when there's a killer after him, and she just might lose Josh for good. ***THREE SIMPLE WORDS was originally published as IN HIS HEART and now that I found the original cover, I think it's perfect. Hope you enjoy Josh and Olivia's story!
