Directly after, Edward is overtaken by a voice inside his head - a voice claiming to be that of Adam himself. Dragged into a nightmare he thinks he has nothing to do with, Edward's world is overcome by grisly hallucinations and shady dealings with the FBI who are questioning the medical agency he works for. Adam is pleading for his help so that he might finally escape his captor. All the while, a timer is set above both of their heads - and it's counting down fast. Cover created by: @CLAYTONMKHIZE

"I'm not star-crossed. Not unless you cross me." Ro is a Montague who killed her father to inherit the drug-running business and their considerable stash of bio-tech. Jules is the heir to the Capulet Casino and the single rose of the blood-stained, rotting streets of New Verona who wants to escape their captive world. But will the rose smell as sweet if Ro steals them away? *** Two crime lords, both alike in villainy, In New Verona, where we lay our scene, From older murder leads to new misery, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From the delinquencies of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd felons take their fight; Whose misadventured bio-tech overthrows Do with much death bury their parents' might. Let the tech war into brothels, casinos, and fatal masquerades, And in the shadows of the city's cruel rage, Aside from their vendetta's end, nothing could remove, Turn now your consciences from this page; The which if you, with patient eyes attend, The past is gone, this dark future we must end.

In times of war, smaller strongholds do what they can to secure their own protection. Some higher soldiers, others fortify themselves, and many marry to consolidate power. The village of Caledon is no different. Threatened by the upcoming war between Laochra Riocht and Reino de Fuego, two of the most powerful kingdoms in the land, Caledon's chief readily accepts the prince of Laochra Riocht's proposal for his daughter Seraphina's hand in exchange for protection of their territory. Seraphina is thrown into a world full of politics, prejudice, policies, and mysteries that go deeper than the impending war with the stronghold from the West. Follow our protagonist as she discovers betrayals, exposes secrets, uncovers truths, and that could very well end the war before it even starts.

Satchmo Turner is a failed private detective from the rusting heart of the Black Country who is reeling from the loss of his sister and fiancee. He's going nowhere at work, and treading water in life, until he picks up a simple missing person case and stumbles into something much bigger. Satchmo soon finds himself in over his head and embroiled a hunt for ancient treasure, unrequited love, violence and murder in a quiet English village stocked with a cast of characters he could never have imagined. Praise for Quid Pro Quo from Wattpadders: "Damn you for writing such a good book. I'm dead serious when I say you should look to get it published." "Overall, I think it's a great book and something I'd expect to see on a shelf in a bookstore somewhere." "I read another chapter and devoured the whole damn thing over an afternoon." "All-in-all the book was thoroughly enjoyable and very professionally written. Definitely better than almost everything else that I have encountered on Wattpad... it was a compelling read." "Your style of storytelling is lovely to read. I'm trying desperately to convince my husband to sign up to Wattpad so he can read it too."
