Welcome to "Rottin," a short story collection hemmed in horror. ------ 1. Ether 2. Cross My Heart 3. Rottin 4. The Girl in the Blue Dress

Simplistic, logical, un-emotional, cold-hearted and unwanted, those words are used by everyone to describe Hella. Her looks are simplistic, her thoughts are logical, her words are cold-hearted, she lacks emotion and her being is unwanted, even by her parents. Hella has been the out-cast for as long as she can remember and everyone likes it that way. But now that he has her, he will show Hella that she isn't the only cold person out there. He is so icy that even the winter is not match for him, but as the frozen Hella begins to melt, she begins to wonder if there isn't more to this man, if he isn't the evil that he has potrays. Hella finds her answer, but it could mean the death of her, and those words are spoken quite literally.

"How do you stuff so much alcohol into your body?" Sean glared at me. I laughed out loud and threw a pillow at his face. He caught it before it could make contact. "It is a secret" I whispered dramatically. ------ With the biggest war ahead...love, emotions, relations, and faith are tested. Will Sasha succeed when she finally faces her darkest fears? P.S- Sequel to 'THE PROMISE'. The book can be read as a stand-alone but if you decide to read THE PROMISE later, don't complain that I did not warn you of major spoilers ;)
