The Bad Boy and The Tomboy is now published as a Wattpad Book! As a Wattpad reader, you can access both the Original Edition and Books Edition upon purchase. Nicknames, a love of soccer, and school rumors are all the bad boy and the tomboy have in common. But if they give each other a chance, will they find something more? ***** Seventeen-year-old Macy Anderson is a tomboy that plays soccer, hangs with the guys, can't stand girls (except her best friend Jasmine) and doesn't know who Sam Cahill is. But when the pair unexpectedly meet, everything goes downhill from there. Because Sam Cahill is the school's bad boy, known for skipping classes and getting into trouble. Not to mention his cocky attitude, British accent, and magnetic charm, which seems to work on all the girls -- except Macy, who has a rule not date in high school. But when Sam starts showing her his moves (on and off the soccer field), Macy begins to see a different guy under the leather-clad exterior. Will that be enough to convince her that he's the one guy worth breaking the rules for? [[Word count: 300,000 - 350,000 words]] [[2015 Watty Winner]] All Rights Reserved- ©nikki20038

Rena wanders a decaying land, searching for purpose to a life that was supposed to have been laid out for her. As a Mythic, the people worship the ground she walks on. To them, a Mythic is life, a living representation of the ley energy that sustains their world. But as a Mythic who doesn't know what ancient spirit resides inside her, she doesn't exist to the Order that raised her. Ignored and denied, Rena sets her sights on other problems. She puts her control over fire and powerful illusions to the test against the feral things that stalk the woods and follows hidden pathways through the silent forests, determined that if the Order doesn't need her, she doesn't need it. But the portals are closing. The ley is in chaos. The Mythics that can still save it are in danger, and Rena's about to stumble upon the biggest purpose of her life whether she's ready for it or not. *+*+*+* Cover art by @46Kibahime Cover title font pretty-ing by @Prisim

*PREQUEL TO INDIGO* The Owl: One of the most revered yet feared criminals in the Underground of Thols. The woman beneath the cowl is a dangerous mystery none are brave enough to uncover. Some say it was the merge of the indigo and violet colours that sent her over the edge, some say she's not human. None know the truth. Eleven-year-old Raphael Dukehart and his adopted sister Zoe live on the outskirts of Sirah where rubble and disrepair are common sights. Life is dangerous here, a place where even the Colour teams charged to protect them fear to tread, yet it's their only choice. As a single parent, his mother barely has enough colour to sustain their small family, but Raph has a plan. He's going to get all three of them out of Sirah and start a better life somewhere the street lights stay on through the night. There's just one cloaked hitch in it all--the girl who just saved their lives with a colour he's never seen before. Cover image by @Violone

PREQUEL TO THE "SHADOWSONG" SERIES It takes more than just a transformation to make a Luminary. After the accident that led to her seizures and her sister's estrangement, no one expects anything special from Olivia Lydiasdaughter. Treated as fragile and breakable by those around her, it's not uncommon for her to break the rules--just to prove that she can. Jason Nicolaisson lives his life in the shadow of his parents, waiting for the next blow. Every word and action is about survival. He loses himself in his music and among the smell of flowers, but with every day that slips by, he's beginning to wonder if it's worth holding on. With only a few days before they'll select the Aspect for their Chosen name, the only thing these two civilians have in common is that they're both on a crash course for two very different disasters. That is, of course, unless one decision and a Manifested can change their paths forever. *+*+*+*

In a cityscape populated by individuals with magically inclined abilities powered by Colour, Athira is a hunter. Known only as the Owl, a notorious criminal with allegiances to none but herself, she searches for answers from the worst the city has to offer. No one is above her notice, and once noticed, there is no escape. When her search leads to a series of magical disturbances and a girl who was supposed to be dead, Athira's world of solitude shatters. Predictions from the lost Colour mark her friend a saviour, and as an ancient horror begins to rise, Athira starts to wonder who she should have been hunting all these years.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

Almost a year ago, Olivia Shadowheart and Jason Frostsong had to figure out how to protect a city from its own possessed citizens without anyone knowing they'd had anything to do with it. They are Banshee and Cryophoenix--two of six Luminaries that save the Manifested from themselves when the Other takes their minds and turns them into twisted monsters bent on revenge. But like all Luminaries, Banshee and Cryo's true identities are a secret, even from each other. As the newest Luminary pair, not much is expected of them except to learn and train for their eventual responsibility in a few years but Banshee's got ambition. She's determined to be more than Olivia ever could, and with Cryo by her side, they find themselves in the middle of a battle they aren't ready for. Their lives, both civilian and Luminary, are about to collide. The question is whether they can learn to trust each other--both with and without the transformations--or if the Other's growing power will claim more than just their secrets. *+*+*+* [ Both books are in this work. Book 1 is chapter 1-38, book 2 continues straight after] [ NaNoWriMo16 & 17] *+*+*+* Cover by @Prisim

For the last four weeks, the fate of the City rested in the hands of two seventeen year olds who have no idea they're best friends. Olivia Shadowheart and Jason Frostsong saved the City from being conquered by the Other, if only barely. As both their civilian selves and as Banshee and Cryophoenix, they pulled together and overcame Starsong's challenge, earning their amulets that will allow them to trust one soul with their true identity. If you ask them, they'd say they deserve a break. But with a complicated relationship developing between them, a new Luminary pair to train, and the old darkness locked away beneath the City beginning to pull free, their fight has only just begun. Only a set of ancient secrets and discovering the truth of what ended the first civilisation so many millennia ago will allow them to save both the city and the people they care about. They have one chance to learn the name of their partner. The question is: will they even want to? [Updates every Wednesday (Australian time)]
