"Go ahead," I said, backing up against the pink wall of the shop. "Do something other than glare at me." I waited. One, two, three seconds... and nothing. I raised my chin at him. "You're boring me, mute boy." He stepped closer. Leaned toward me as his gaze burned into mine. Then... ❀ ❀ ❀ After three months in juvenile detention, it's time for Romy Pereira to help out with her family's flower shop. And it's not all bad... until they hire Jack Michel to work beside her. He doesn't speak, communicating with glares and scowls instead of words, and seems to be more interested in literal rocks than other human beings. And with an ex-convict mother, her friends drifting away, and the flower shop falling apart, the last thing Romy wants to deal with is Jack's attitude. She'll forever praise the day he screws up big time and gets himself fired, but until that day comes, it's mostly one cold-hearted girl, her silent (but still infuriating) coworker, and a whole lot flowers.

[Book available on Radish app] Hunter Brantley is a college student and always causing trouble at school. Golden Brown hair, metallic silver eyes and arms covered in tattoos. He's everything that a cliche bad boy story needs. Being expelled through school over a dozen times is not something new for Hunter. Dumping girls has become a new hobby. And then one day he's just driving by the beach late at night because he's too damn tired of his messed up life. That's where Hunter finds her. A beautiful, mysterious girl with aqua blue hair. She's half naked, lying on the beach sand and at the mercy of a stranger. Only she's not any normal girl. She is a mermaid. And Hunter is not such a bad guy, so he takes her home. Blue is a shapeshifting Mermaid who shape-shifts into a human when on land and turns into a mermaid underwater. What happens when she wakes up one day and finds herself on land in a completely strange place? Will Hunter be able to send Blue back to the Ocean or will she will be stuck with the bad boy forever ? A Romantic Comedy of a Bad boy teaching the Mermaid how to live like a human. Blue is strong, beautiful and blunt to a fault. Even the most normal thing that comes out of her mouth feels like a joke. Hunter finds the mermaid funny, he's practically rolling on the floor with laughter until the jokes are on him. That's when the Bad Boy falls in love with the Mermaid. *~*~* [Highest Rank #1 in Mermaid & #1 in Comedy] All Rights Reserved 2018 © KittyKash92

"Anybody can be a mother, but it takes somebody special to be a mom..." They said everything happened for a reason, and seventeen-year-old Courtney Stern had a weak belief in that. She was normal, artistic, and happy; except for her family. Her father was a kind man, steady job, loved her unconditionally, but her mother was a different story. She was eccentric, bold, and possibly had a mild case of aspergers. She was nothing like her daughter, and Courtney was tired of this woman's behavior. Then one day, everything changed, She found documents, files, reports, everything that her parents ever told her was proven wrong because of a picture she was trying to find. Her mother is not her mother, and Courtney is thrown into the world of surrogate mothers. In order to get the truth, she chooses to travel from her home in Denver, Colorado, to Durango; and finds her birth mother...along with secrets behind it. http://www.lulu.com/shop/stephanie-moscone/like-mother-like-daughter/paperback/product-22059270.html
