In desperate attempt to win the heart back of Ryland Woods, a moody, teenage boy from Earth who dumped her ugly persona in the first place, the Devil forms into a seventeen-year-old girl and crashes back to his planet in hope to make him fall in love with her one more time--but for a greater reason than lust. Try measuring the stakes on a universe-saving scale. A comedy where a spirit, hell-ish world meets teenage angst and first world problems. cover by @naramatilda +++ Don't be afraid of us: the Boys of the Dark.

Ever since you left, its always cold in the dark.

Because there's no one way to write, but my one way may inspire you.* * Just take this sentence fragment starting with because as a sneak peek of the unorthodoxy inside.

The princess. The liar. The thief. The bully. The wuss. Five troubled teens from all over the globe, plus their inexperienced driver and elderly chaperone, have unexpectedly been stranded in the exotic-bizarre rainforest world of Borneo. It was supposed to be a year-end leadership seminar. It was supposed to help them grow, their minds expanded by the stunning landscape and the exotic wildlife. In reality? Not so much. Lost and separated in an uncaring rain forest with flying snakes, abusive primates, and marauding jungle life, it's an unremarkable little bird-a cuckoo shrike-that seems to be calling all the shots. Each member of the Cuckoo Colloquium is forced to face their own unique challenges, both savage and fantastic ... or die trying. Because as it turns out, the jungle has no intention of letting them go. Debut author Michael A. Greco's The Cuckoo Colloquium is a thrilling story of hope, survival, and pushing past the limits our world draws around us. cover: Tovi King (@toviking) *** All rights Reserved.
