"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.

[Finished and being edited] Once captured by a distraught king, a fierce warrior is forced to choose between saving his family or his country. But choices are never that simple. *** Book 1 of The War of Fire and Ice. The centuries-long war between Fire and Ice has reached an uneasy standstill; but, as time progresses, that newfound peace starts cracking. Thorn, a good warrior with a dark past, has been captured by the crazed Fire King who will spout Machiavellian ideals to obtain the item he desperately requires. However, the king carries a heavy burden that the rest of his court are more than happy to take advantage of. Meanwhile, panic blooms throughout Ice as Thorn's absence creates a hole that their king and Thorn's wife are unable to fill. Seeking to unite their divided kingdom, the Ice King and his close subjects search for ways to survive the upcoming war. There is more than one layer to the Kingdoms' troubles. There is more than one issue in the rulers' hearts. There is more than one outcome of right or wrong. And sometimes, death is the only answer.
