Perfectionist Stories

Five-year-old Isabella Sloane Prescott is a rubber band in a world of glass. As the youngest of the Prescott legacy, she's grown up in the wings of the Abby Lee Dance Company, watching her older sister, Cassidy, crumble under the pressure and her older brother, Charlie, become Abby's untouchable "Golden Boy." Now, the cameras are rolling, the pyramid is being built, and Isabella is officially joining the Junior Elite Competition Team. But being the baby of the group comes with a price. While Charlie is Abby's star and a favorite alongside Maddie, Isabella is trapped. She's trapped in pigtails, trapped in "cute" costumes, and trapped in acro numbers that treat her more like a circus act than a dancer. With a mother who refuses to let another daughter "quit," a brother who will do anything to shield her from Abby's screams, and a sister who serves as a haunting reminder of what happens when you snap, Isabella has to learn to bend. But how far can a girl be stretched before she finally breaks? Book One: Bendable Seasons: 1 - 4 Book Two: Unbreakable Seasons: 5 - 8 - Reunion

"Darkness doesn't always hide. Sometimes, it blinds." *** Emmanuella Orinomwen Ignenedion. Meticulous. Pristine. Disciplined. Clean. A wonderful assistant pastor to my father's mega-church. That is the script I feed to the world. To my parents, I am the perfect, submissive daughter. But that is only what they are permitted to see. They have never heard the screams silenced by the fire. Or the nightmares' golden promise of unyielding terror. For a long time, I preferred it that way. I buried my survival inside a tight-knit bubble of schedules. Out of sight, out of mind. But my clockwork existence shattered the moment Mary forced her way into my orbit. Unpredictable. Uninvited. An eye that saw what no one else had seen. And she made me see too. Darkness. Gross darkness that fueled my father's church. A rotting ledger of hidden cash, stolen lives, and an ancient malice hiding right beneath our pristine marble floors. With her, I realized: Words can be as thick as knives. Smiles as thin as paper. And blood can ripple as cold as deep water. Holiness or piety is not by mere words or appearance. Because I know, now better than anyone, that anything can be faked. As even the devil masquerades as an angel of light. I spent my life blind to the abyss in my own home. This is the story of how I stopped pretending. Note: mentions of some triggering content in this book

Her thoughts never rested. It wasn't always like this. She used to be truly happy. But her old personality was concealed under carefully painted strokes of anxiety and desperation for control.

Caiden Mcmillan had never believe in coincidences. He believed in executing a perfectly coordinated plan. His whole life, he was strictly taught to be a well prepared man. He had spent his whole life planning, and he carried all his plans perfectly. He graduated school at 16, received his master degree at 21 and he started his empire at 23. All of which went according to his plans. So it's safe to say he hated it with passion when people disrupted his plans. Oceana Isandor fitted that equation perfectly. She was never supposed to collide with him, all it took was one car crash and he was prescribed blind for a few weeks. Yet somehow even if that meant a thousand changes in his perfect plans, Caiden couldn't find it in his heart to honestly hate her. In Caiden's world where women were cunning foxes that wanted his hide and was never included in his plans, just maybe Oceana Isandor could change his mind and be the road that lead him to salvation.
