    Book two of the Starling trilogy... Repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Three words that are not familiar to those trapped in the cult of social status. Amanda Talmage is from a family trapped in that cult. At 16 years old, she's a beautiful, rich, spoiled brat, status worshiping, mean girl - i.e. - a Starling. Amanda is miserable, and feels hopelessly trapped in her life of status. Dick Ryndon, Amanda's ultra-wealthy ex-boyfriend, only saw her as a trophy. He didn't love her, but everyone told her that staying with him was best for her status. That is, right up until the moment when he dropped her off in the country, and left her for dead. Joshua Whitaker is a hard working middle class boy, with a warm heart, and a strong conscience. At 16, he has an after school job, and drives a pick-up. He and his family routinely help-out their elderly neighbors. They are good Samaritans, living out the precept- "love your neighbor." Joshua and Amanda have never liked each other. But when Amanda finds herself stuck in Joshua's family's home, she's exposed to another way of living. Amanda is forced to face herself, her past, and an uncertain future. The working title was "Amanda's Story. This is the draft I submitted to my editor. The final version is available on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Starlings-Redemption-Christopher-Propeck/dp/B0D1QPZ6NL/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3GMZ4EDQ60BF2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Q1t-OD2q32XiAOoq7T-TdYpSt6Gi9AcDdcV4YA1pKrXfDQef2mwy5XmQXfk6iHaY.HkPK2fL5Rxgz11V_pGUH21aLHeDGwX8p4ZdSax15rYM&dib_tag=se&keywords=christopher+propeck&qid=1713495213&s=books&sprefix=Christopher+Prop%2Cstripbooks%2C252&sr=1-1

    Book one of the starlings trilogy... Honor, loyalty, and love - three words that are not familiar to those trapped in the cult of social status. At 17 years old, Elise Torgason was a beautiful, rich, spoiled brat, status worshiping, mean girl - i.e. - a Starling. Her friends were really pushing her to go slumming, and challenged her to land the biggest catch in school - Bret Whitaker. Bret Whitaker was an average middle class guy from an average middle class suburb. At 17 years old, he was looking forward to graduating from high school, and joining the National Guard. He wasn't looking for a relationship, and was well aware of the starlings' plot. Elise talked Bret into taking her on a few dates, to satisfy her friends. She knew falling for him could cost her everything. Can the wall around her starling heart protect her from forming any attachment? Or will time spent with Bret and his family prove to be too much for her lonely heart to bear? Available on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FK5Q5ZHQ?

That all begins to change. I begin to learn the truth.

    AU-ish. The Cahills have experienced it all and yet they are faced with another challenge. Five hundred years' worth of lies and deception is what the young generation of Cahills are trying to break. From the cunning Lucian (Ian and Natalie Kabra), the ingenious Ekat (triplets Sinead, Ted and Ned Starling), the athletic Tomas (Hamilton, Madison and Reagan Holt), the creative Janus (cousins Jonah and Phoenix Wizard) up to the serene Madrigals (Amy and Dan Cahill), they must find a way to defeat the Vespers using their own wit and strategies. Fate seems to think that only by fighting together could they beat all odds. The plan: Be Each Other. Everyone stays at the Cahill mansion, the renovation of the shattered mansion of Grace Cahill. Would they succeed when each one of them was born and still living in lies? Or would they be a house divided against itself that can never stand? DISCLAIMER: Every character in The 39 Clues think that I DON'T OWN THE 39 CLUES SERIES, nor ITS SUCCESSOR CAHILLS VS. VESPERS... So I DON'T. Stop bugging me already!! (screams and runs away)
