Surviving in juvenile prison? Tough. Surviving in juvenile prison with the added bonus of seeing ghosts? Tougher. Bailey has a sixth sense, a criminal record and no appetite for trouble; serving a year-long prison sentence already sucks enough in and of itself. If only the spirits would leave her in peace. A strange warning, an inexplicable injury, a disturbing message written on her cell's wall in blood: Bailey has no choice but to conclude a ghost is out to get her. To save her life, she must find out why. But in a place where restriction is everything and escape impossible, that may be harder than it seems. ~ONC 2020 shortlister and honourable mention~ ~Featured on 'Die Young, Stay Pretty' reading list on @Horror~ -Featured on 'Horror/Paranormal' reading list on @CommunityTeam~ ~Featured on 'Life after death' reading list on @Paranormal~ ~Featured on 'Wicked little creatures' reading list on @TeenFiction~ ~Featured on 'I see dead people' on @fright~ ~Featured on @StoriesUndiscovered, may 2022~ ~Featured on 'The Rebels' reading list on @Badassreads~ ~Amby Awards 2023 Top Pick~ Written for ONC 2020.

When Mac's best friend, Dylan Little, humiliates Sophia in public, Sophia decides to get revenge on him by destroying his friendship with Mac. Together, Mackenzie and Sophia embark on a mission to turn the good girl bad. But is being bad as good as it seems? And is being good really that bad?

A year after Rita Silvera was almost murdered by Henry Dixon, she reluctantly travels to a true crime convention with her partner Alfonso and his troubled nephew Matteo. Shortly after the convention starts, popular podcaster Erica Scott is found murdered in her hotel room. Young and beautiful, Erica had no shortage of fans - and no shortage of enemies. When an investigating officer she trusts is suspended on dubious grounds, Rita feels compelled to investigate the case herself. Soon she uncovers a tangled web of hatred, obsession and personal grudges. But nobody is who they say they are, and the truth is closer to home than she'd ever imagined...

An exploration of feelings and connection through short stories.

☆ ᴡᴀᴛᴛʏꜱ 2024 SHORTLISTER!! ☆ A tragic misunderstanding. A murder. A secret. An unlikely partnership. A spirited countess and an enterprising racketeer. ~~~ Manchester, England. May 1925. The Roarin' 20s. An era of glamor, decadent parties, jazz music, flowing booze, and opulent wealth. Possibilities are endless. Anyone can be a success, even families once seen as working class. But beneath the glittering exterior lies a world of corruption, prejudice, and civil unrest. When the disappearance of a Russian refugee brings Countess Rose Sinclair to the doorstep of known racketeer William Mercer, neither party is prepared for the significant changes a single encounter can inspire. Blackmailed by William into employment, Rose receives a swift and unwanted education regarding a side of the class struggle she has never before experienced. As she unwillingly ventures deeper into the precarious world of the Mercer family and their notorious gang the Deansgate Streeters, Rose finds herself torn between her moral compass, her suppressed rebellious youth, her growing love for a motherless toddler, and her mounting attraction for William, a man she has every reason to despise. ⚠️ Read with caution: foul language, violence, trauma, and sexual content (fade to black only) within.
