Seacliff is now only available on Inkitt. In 2019, Aidan is a kilt-wearing tour guide on the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh. In 1919, Saoirse is a Great War nurse who's got nothing left to live for - until the sea brings a naked, unconscious man to her feet. Not one easily shocked after caring for the most broken of men in France, Saoirse takes the stranger in and tends to his wounds. Except the man is all kinds of unusual and she begins to question whether he even is a man at all. Is the grief driving her mad or is there more to the world than she ever thought possible? Saoirse hopes to find answers in her Aunt Aoife's diaries, since the gentle giant she rescued from the sea has no recollection of how he ended up there in the first place. * Editors' Choice, December 2020 * an open novella contest entry which grew into a ~75k-word novel completed * prompt: "When something tragic happens, it's often said we lose a piece of ourselves.

No one has any idea what it's like to be a cop in a city full of superheroes. It's being last to the crime scene and first to fall under scrutiny, but it doesn't stop Cody Fisher from doing his job. Er, most of the time. Faulkner is the best-protected city in the United States--that is, until the public accepts two revolutionaries as their saviours. Before long, the city is in shambles, and the government can't keep it under control alone. *This story is unedited. :) I'll say sorry in advance.
