Xander Mendez is living the dream. He has the most amazing girlfriend in the world and is a superhero. Life could literally not be better. Trevor Rossi has been the CEO of his father's company for three months now and he's only inches away from catching his father's killer. April has been interviewing the villain X for months now and she thinks she's finally understanding how he thinks while discovering herself in the process. Celeste is finding herself falling for her study partner while also fighting for her turf with a new villain in town after her prize. Mischief is what this new villain calls himself, and he's seeming to turn into their biggest threat yet. A non-super with an array of guns and other trinkets who seems to be way too interested in Momentum and Artic Frost. And with the growing shadow of the old villain X over the citizens of Kingdom City, the stakes get even higher. And it turns out maybe they're all connected more than they thought.

Heroes. Ever since they showed up, people have gone soft. They're adored, worshipped. Devotion is showered upon them like rain. It's about time someone knocks them off that pedestal they stand on, someone to crush their pillars of faith. Someone like me. A villain. It's perfect. I'll be the undoing of heroes. ≠ disclaimer: very much needs to be edited, very much needs to be less corny and very much needs to be entirely rewritten by me. if you approach it as a goofy, corny, old 2015-esque superhero book then it'll be a great time. i'll be honest and say there are no pulitzers here. completed ✓ highest rank in sf: #9 cover: @narwhelly

**A Wattpad Featured Story** Kenna Jones isn't a Superhero, and she wants to keep it that way. Though her brother, Sebastien, is a star member of the Sapphire City Super team, Kenna keeps her Super abilities to herself and far away from a celebrity lifestyle she finds selfish and disillusioning. For reasons she'd rather forget, she can't stand most Supers, and uses her mildly famous pen name as a kind of secret identity instead. One evening, fiercely independent Kenna meets the new guy, Enigma, in the most annoying circumstances, and finds him slowly chipping away at her prejudices. Then, with Villains on the loose, threatening to foist a great Evil (with a capital E) on Sapphire City and those she holds dear, Kenna has to ask herself one question: is it time for everything to change?

Being the girlfriend of the city's favorite superhero wasn't as always as glamorous as the label sounded. It came with stress, loneliness, keeping secrets, and knowing that he might miss date night while saving someone's life. For Adriana, these issues weren't important as she fell in love with Midnight Hour, the city's number one super, long before he even had powers. With the arrival of a new villain in town though, she suddenly finds herself trapped with a whole different kind of super making her question everything she thought she had known about love, herself, and what it actually meant to be the bad guy.

Nova was never really fond of superheroes. From their capes to the idea that a woman could serve as little more than a device to further the endless conflict of good and evil, you have to admit she's got a solid argument. It's a bit ironic that she doesn't like them because they seem to love her. After a chance encounter leads her into the arms of the hottest hero around, Spitfire, Nova is thrust into a world of capes and crusaders that just can't seem to let her be. Cover by @Sinadana

"Great power comes with great..." I raised my eyebrows at Guardian, looking his skin-tight suit up and down. "Urges to wear spandex, apparently." "Are you using altered famous superhero comic book references to insult me?" he asked incredulously. I snorted. "You bet your fucking ass, I am." *** Crown City has all the typical big-city flare. There's a McDonald's on every corner, enough carbon emissions to end life as we know it, and a new supervillain trying to take over right before finals week. For Tessa Kingston, Supers are nothing out of the ordinary. In fact, Tessa likes to pretend that Supers don't even exist at all. Though Tessa isn't exactly shy with her not-so-popular thoughts on Crown City's resident vigilante, Guardian, he seems to have taken a liking to the annoyed teenager. Well, he and his buddies have, that is - buddies meaning two supervillains dressed in Walmart Star Wars masks. Crown City has always been a center for mayhem and superpowers, but when strange things start happening too often to be coincidences, Tessa finds herself in the middle of a fight she didn't start but she sure as hell was going to end. Villains torment her. Heroes try to save her. Tessa just wants to pass Supers 101. In a world full of Supers, it's up to normal-teenager Tessa Kingston to save her city. A typical tagline she's well-aware of, of course. As Tessa prepares to show these Super-fools they messed with the wrong girl, she just has one condition: There's no way she's wearing spandex. *** BOOK #1 OF THE "SUPERHEROES SUCK" DUOLOGY Featured on the Wattpad Adventure, Action, Superhero, and Humour profiles! WARNING: Contains mild swearing, cliffhangers, plot twists, and enough sarcasm to last a lifetime.

WARNING: CONTAINING AMOUNTS OF SASS PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO MANKIND In the city of NYC--- Ok. Hold up. First of all, New York City. What, are ya gonna assume everyone here knows what NYC is? Anyway, this is about two people. I can almost hear you rolling your eyes. Another cliché teen fiction with a bad boy and a good girl? Nope. This is about superheroes. I can still hear you rolling your eyes. Superheroes. Like in comic books? Like people with super speed and mutant powers? Yes. But this isn't about the fight they have. More about the lives they lead without the masks. But just keep in mind, people who live in the world have all different skin colours. Do not assume my characters are of one unless I state them explicitly. and diversity is welcome here in my novel! Anyhow, back to the story. Ever wonder where supervillains go after their fight with the hero? What about the other side of the story? It's not like they sit in their lair cackling all day and planning how to kidnap reporters. What about the lives they lead? And instead of just focusing on that, what if the superhero and the supervillain knew each other? I mean, can they see behind the mask? No, so their identities are secret. So what if the hero and villain were best friends? What if they were roommates? What if they were falling for each other? And what happens when they find out? Now, I assume you know all of these questions will be answered in this book. But hold on. It's going to take a while. You're in for a bumpy ride. And if any of you got any of the references in this description, give yourself a pat on the back. That is a beautiful thing. And if you can name all the references in this book, you truly are a gift to mankind. Fangirl out.

Xander Mendez isn't sure he knows what's real anymore. Yesterday he was sure he was a superhero protecting Kingdom City along with friends, but now he was being told all of that was made up. Xander isn't a superhero. He's a patient in a mental institution. Everyone he thought he knew is someone else. His best friend is his short-tempered hatful roommate, the girl he loved who he saw die is his therapist, and his friend the vigilante badass is a lunatic stuck at the mental age of nine. Nothing seems right. Maybe Xander really was a mental patient. Maybe he did make it all up. Maybe he was crazy. Meanwhile, in the world Xander thinks he made up, a heinous villain is trying to take over the city with a severely addictive drug, a vigilante is having second thoughts, a hero is keeping his love and nemesis captive, and an agent is coming to terms with his past. And the city's only hope may be a speedster stuck in a prison of their own creation.
