(The first installment in the 'My Life' series.) "Whoever said, 'the more you lie, the easier it gets' was wrong. It doesn't get easier. It gets harder. Because sooner or later, the lies will suffocate you until you're just an empty shell waiting to die. I should know. I'm already halfway there." - Isabella Meet Isabella Ace, a 250 pound girl who was voted the 'ugliest girl' by her peers at Woodway Prep--a school for the rich. Sick of all the bullies, mostly Thomas Reed--the arrogant airhead and all around douchebag, she decided enough was enough. One year later, she's back, better than ever, and ready for revenge. But with a guilty conscience and a mysterious past waiting to be discovered, Isabella's life just got a whole lot harder. *Watty 2012 Special Award Winner: Big Screen Adaptation* *Published by Summit Media: Pop Fiction 1/1/16 (international author)* *#1 Teen Fiction (4/8) (4/26) (6/25) (6/29) (7/5) (7/23) (7/27) (8/16) (8/21) (8/23) (8/29) (9/7) (10/13) (10/19 - 10/28)*

Now at twenty-five and stripped of her girlish hair ribbons and fantasies, Simone meets Daniel again. But he's completely changed. Long gone is the charming actor who inspired her to pursue her passion and dreams. He's now surrounded by an air of cold mystery and authority that makes him even more unreachable.

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

Wattys shortlist 2021 "I'm already loving this story" - _singforjoy_ "You are going to get me what I want," Isla said, calmly. "Or I will kill you." The words hung in the air between them. Raif looked unconcerned. "Is that so?" he said. Born to the captain of a pirate ship, Isla has spent her whole life at sea. Raised among sailors, her father has trained her to fight, command a crew, and, most importantly, the secrets of the ocean currents. When her father is killed in a storm, she is forced to step into his role as captain. Not only does she have to provide for the men on her ship, but she also inherits her father's outstanding debt to Lord Sutherland: the task of stealing the rare Serpent's Eye emerald. After months of failure to locate the emerald, Isla is forced to take extreme measures: she kidnaps Duke Raif Sayers, who knows of the emerald's location. But Raif proves to be more strong willed and stubborn than Isla expected. Matters become even more complicated when Raif's father offers a large reward for his son's rescue and suddenly every cutthroat is looking for Raif and the pirate who kidnapped him. As Isla and her crew are pushed to their limits and race against their deadline, Isla has to face that the one decision she thought would save her crew could be the very thing that destroys them.

"A daydreamer, a clueless prince, and a girl from a mountain of ashes. And oh--a dead man they have to hide. Things could not get worse, right? Right?" In a world where words are sacred, Nascha Yakine tells a story of magic and fantasy, deaths and wars, and they are all coming true, one harrowing tale at a time. ***** Nascha has been warned time and time again that the ancient language of Tomesh is sacred and should not be used in writing stories. She does it anyway. As a member of a family of scribes in the desert, Nascha has been working on the king's future tomb for years. And there, in one of the chambers, she secretly carves her highly fantastic tales using the sacred Tomera words. It was all fantasy until things begin to get a little alarming when the king suddenly dies exactly the same way in her tale. As her stories start to come true, Nascha begins to realize who--or what--she truly is. And with that comes enemies who want her for her gift, forcing her to leave the comforts of home to face an epic adventure caused by her own creations. However, she is not alone. She will travel with new friends: Laku, the prince and heir to the throne, and Tia, the mysterious girl from the dark mountains of Achnus. But working together may be a little complicated as they discover more of each other's mysteries, goals, and secret identities.
