They say in life there are no second chances. But what if you had blown it with the girl of your dreams? What would you do knowing that she was out there, in other realities, realities you hadn't screwed up? That kind of thing could really mess you up... and it could make you do "some crazy." Down-on-his-luck David Blunt is as loser as a loser you can get; recently kicked out of school and fired from his dead end job, David's been squatting in his flop-house apartment, avoiding his landlord and subsisting on stale fortune cookies and cheap street meat for weeks. But when David reads a fortune that predicts an epic future for him, he starts to think that his luck is about to change. Emma Gossett is a spirited world traveler full of wanderlust, and never stays put in one place long enough to form any attachments. Her lovable and eccentric Gran insists this is because she was hidden from the Norns as a babe to keep them from naming Emma's fate, a fable Emma puts little faith in. But when Emma meets David, her faith in reality is shaken to the core. Does this rambling cynical romantic hold the answer to the prevailing sense of déjà vu she's been feeling lately? Or is it just something else, as her new and mysterious and magnetic acquaintance Gabriel insists? Perhaps he holds the key to the mysterious sensations she has felt of living another life alongside her own. All Your Fates is a multiverse mindwarp with supernatural elements that one reader commented: "This story is twisting into ways a pretzel couldn't even try!!"

Chloe Lane is lost, emotionally and literally, on the streets of New York, and this is something she thinks she’s prepared for. What she isn’t prepared for is the overwhelming kindness of four of the few people who could possibly know and understand what she’s going through. She’s running from fear, from pain and most of all, from a brutal and virulent past. Trust is a marathon in hail, rain and fire, and Chloe is a tightly closed book, but as the spine begins to creak under all the weight, there’s a chance she just might burst open. Sarah Parks is a cop, first and foremost. Her dedication to her job is something that her partner, Jake Finchley, has never been able to understand or accept. But when Jake suddenly needs Sarah’s help with one of the biggest cases in the history of their time at the NYPD, a personal and covert one at that, her dedication is all he needs. However, Sarah’s distressing history seems to catch up with her each step of the way, and it’s all she can do not to sink under the weight. As Sarah and Jake both go against everything they’ve ever known to be right, the boundaries of their friendship are tested with the weight of their secrets and the disturbing possibility of an ending. With Sarah hot on Chloe's trail, the light at the end of the tunnel is slowly dimming, with an apocalyptic tension. And they all know it. Secrets exposed. Loves lost. Friendship redefined. Paths crossed. No one is who they seem and no one’s life is as it seems. Through a tale of love, ambiguity, revenge and learning, the lives of everyone in this tale intertwine as they fight for and against love, life and of course, the law.
