Virtueandvice Stories

Have you ever had a crush on your partner's friend? Secretly celebrated someone's failure? Questioned your marriage when no one was looking? These fleeting, unspeakable thoughts may be uncomfortable, but they are what make us human. We are both light and shadow, virtue and vice. This collection of flash fiction dives into the depths of our inner monologues, the desires, regrets, and contradictions we dare not share. Through these raw, unfiltered moments, it reveals the beauty and complexity of being human: everything we are, and everything we aren't.

Kady Lynn Jones is an acquired taste. From her exotic beauty to her brash personality, she's notorious for being too hot to handle.

From his renowned genius as a tech entrepreneur to his reputation as a perfect gentleman, he's the most eligible bachelor in the country. His close call to making the mistake of a lifetime has taught him to never settle again--a resolve that comes down to simply waiting for her. They are each other's secret, each other's scar. Fighting a pull that will not let go--may it be against time, tragedy or toxic fears--they land on a rare chance to decide if what was once impossible could become the inevitable. It might be heaven or hell but unable to remain in the restless, endless in-between, they will dare to find out if a sinner and saint can truly live happily ever after.
