>>COMPLETE<< Rhea is a solemn young woman that finds the disturbing comforting and fascinating. Once tormented because of her preferences, she has learned to hide her true passions and act the part of an ordinary Krimson City citizen. Though lonely in her isolation and bored with the ideals of others, she is content with the sliver of freedom she indulges in. On a seemingly normal day, a body falls from the sky, and by some stroke of luck, Rhea's shiney new camera captures the identity of the fallen angel. That photograph has become her most precious treasure. Time passes, and Rhea's photography class has been given the chance for their portfolios to be examined by an ex-war photographer known as Stefano Valentini. Despite the disgusted faces that storm away from the show, Rhea, entranced by the artist's gruesome work, wanders deeper into the gallery, wondering if she will finally find understanding... In a world where the black sheep are casted out, has Rhea found someone that can embrace her passion? What will become of her once she is caught in his lens?

Highest ranking: #1 in Teen Fiction -- "Sunshine, what guy do you know has a weird fetish with sign language?" She's the aftermath of a high school party nightmare. Tragedy robbed her of her innocence and stole her voice before she had the chance to speak out. The court called her a liar, and the guilty was set free. Now memories plague her mind and trap her in solitude. She was forced to learn sign language, struggling to find a way to voice her silence. He's the definition of the boy she tried to stay away from. The epitome of harsh rumors and hopeless fantasies. The source of lies and blame. He's analyzed, misunderstood, and utterly mysterious. And he may be the one to find her voice. When they meet, she gets accustomed to his arrogance and he gets accustomed to her silence. An essay is what brings them together, but what happens when he starts asking too many questions? Will her past continue to drag her down, or will he save her? Fate has a funny way of bringing people together, but it doesn't always work how it's supposed to. *different summary inside* "Perfect amount of tragedy, humor, and romance!" -Sparkles530 "I feel like I learned a lot from your story, thank you." - 980Sarah "This book is beautifully written.

Apollo. His name alone, simulated after the god who carved multitude numbers of eldritch music and who possessed such unimaginable beauty, induced many wars among our brethren. He is devastatingly handsome- molded by Apollo himself. With piercing eyes green as the emerald lushness masking the immensity of the forest- his domain- he effortlessly captivated us, clutching us at his mercy. They say he's ruthless, damaged beyond repair. They say he smelt like death- the countless numbers of wolves' blood spilled from his marbled hand clinging to him like a shadow of a long forgotten entity. I've been raised to fear him- to run for my life the moment we cross paths; but destiny seemed to have something planned for me. My life was handed to this sinfully beautiful specimen of a beast in exchange for my sister's life. And I'll be finding out if what the rumors says about him is true. 2014.04.27 iheartaitaii

When I was a little girl, I believed in fairy tales. I believed in princes and princesses and knights in shining armor. I believed in forever and happily ever afters. I was ten when reality hit me. My mom brought the evil home with her and there was no escaping it. That's when I learned that fairy tales were just that: fairy tales. The bad stuff is real, though. The difference is that I now know that the monsters and evil villains don't always wear capes and ugly scars. No: most of the time, they appear normal. I'm drowning in reality, in my life, and I've given up hope that a knight in shining armor will rescue me. But maybe... maybe I don't need a Prince Charming after all. Maybe a knight without the shining armor and a broken smile will be enough to save me. *Please note this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.
