How far will teen girls go for approval from their peers? Pretty far, it turns out. When pretty, smart Sara Long is found bludgeoned to death, it's easy to blame the man with the bat. But when Georgia Davis -- former cop and newly-minted PI -- is hired to look into the incident at the behest of the accused's sister, what she finds hints at a much different, much darker answer. It seems the privileged, affluent schoolgirls on Chicago's North Shore have learned just how much their innocence is worth to hot-under-the-collar businessmen. But while these girls can pay for their newly gotten Prada pricetags, they don't realize that their new business venture may end up costing them more than they can afford. I'll post chapters one at a time, but if you just HAVE to find out what happens before they're all up, here's where you can buy the ebook (It's also available in paperback and audio, btw): http://amzn.com/B001UE8J4Y https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/easy-innocence/id586071761?mt=11 http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebook/easy-innocence

After the fifth World War, the supernatural broke out of their hiding places and captured control of the Earth. The sixth World War, however, was kept hidden from the humans in hopes to keep the peace. Werewolves reign, vampires roam, and the rest of the supernatural reside just like any other. Besides humans. With necessities such as food and civil rights stripped from them, humans form an organization to revolt against all supernatural creatures; they call themselves the Blade. When the vampires cause an uproar in Africa, the French Blade - run by nineteen year old Emelia - intervene. Little did they expect, though, that the infamous werewolves would also make an appearance. With no weapons to defeat werewolves, Emelia orders her people to focus on the vampires, which results in her saving a wolf's life. When the beast, Alpha King Mohegan, turns to her, he discovers his rescuer is his mate. Will they be able to overcome the hatred they have for one another? And when faced with unfathomable circumstances, will they be able to fight a war that is more powerful than anything they could imagine - something that has been kept under wraps for over one hundred years? Find out in The Blade.
