He watched her, he wanted her, and he longed to kill her.....
To 28 year old Logan Von Kuizenga, New Year is just a celebration with her friends and family. Sure, it symbolizes the fresh start of the upcoming year and leaving the past behind, but for Logan, it's the time to gather her friends and family in one place and look forward to the bright new future that is in store for them.
On the eve of New Year, just like the clock strikes midnight to bring in a new year, a killer strikes with murder. Logan, who was looking forward to the new year with hope and joy, is now bringing in the new year with sadness and fear.
It is up to Logan, a crime novelist, and an idiotic, but handsome detective to come together and put their differences aside, to solve this murder mystery before the killer strikes again....at midnight.
Clocks really do strike at midnight.

"But it's not all their fault." I sob. "They aren't the reason she's dead." "... and neither are you... Why do you insist on blaming yourself?" "Because I could've done better... I should have been there... I should have saved her..." "You were there with her all night, you did all that you could have." I shake my head. "No, Will, I wasn't." I clear the tears trying to see what his expression was. "I left in the middle of the night... To-meet Logan..." I look at his face. "That still doesn't make it your fault..." I nod. "It does" I start to walk inside when he calls out my name, I whirl around to face him. "Why do you care so much?!" "I'm afraid you're going to hurt yourself!" I smile. "No, I only hurt others" I turn back around to face the door, when he spoke one last time. "Please do something that gives you reason to come out." I thought about that. "Go home, Will." I close the door behind me and proceed to walk up the stairs and return back to my beloved bed. As I lay in my bed, I stare at the ceiling. 'Do something that gives you reason to come out.' Is that what he had said. he's right, and I had just the thing to do. I'd find Ellie's killer and make them pay.

Bailey realizes if she wants her best friend to get the justice she deserves, she's gonna have to catch the killer herself.Complete
Burnt Blood: The Werewolf Within
His best friend is shot dead, and the world thinks Metropolitan Police Officer George Reynolds did it. They were in the one place that should've been safe, their police station. At least it was until aspiring detective George Reynolds came lucid from another blackout. Blood pools tantalisingly across the floor and there's two bullet holes in the wall. His best friend, officer Chris Wells is dead and George finds himself with the body and no memory of how. Only a tape recorder and a locker key for a clue. It's a dangerous game, from a lifetime of planning, rigged to make George look guilty and force him to remember what he really is and what he went through as a child. A pure born werewolf. Kidnapped from his real family to be experimented on. George gets dangled on strings by the killer puppet master and taken on a haunting journey never to be forgotten again. Made to relive the past trauma of a tragic fire that took the lives of the family that tortured him. Bodies continue to fall, all framed to fit the murderous narrative of an elaborate plot for revenge. When he finally remembers, when he's finally broken, another unique side to George wakes. So does a dark new world from the shadows. George learns the painful truth, and none of it is good. Nobody saw the real killer coming or expected that it could be someone they trusted. It will take everything George has to save his friends, new and old. Nobody will be the same. Nor will their view of the world. Its rife with the supernatural. **** Cover made on Canva Pro.

Her bruised and weak fingers have not let go of my hand, not since those words left her whitish lips.

The Crimson Spotlight (Book 1)
Detective Elias Voss never wanted to be center stage-until a killer made him the star of a twisted play. In the rain-drenched shadows of a crumbling city, a young woman's throat is slashed, her sequined dress a glittering shroud, a black rose pinned to her chest like a macabre boutonnière. The note left behind is a taunt, a curtain call addressed to Detective Elias Voss: "The first act begins. Curtains up, Detective." At twenty-four, Elias is a prodigy with a mind sharper than the killer's blade-shy, devastatingly handsome, and more comfortable with corpses than compliments. He's paired with Mara Quinn, a rookie officer whose wit is as quick as her courage, and together they're thrust into a case that's equal parts theater and terror. The crime scene is a stage, the murder a performance, and the killer a director with a penchant for blood and bravado. As Elias and Mara unravel the clues-a glitzy party, a shadowy figure in a hoodie, a trail of crimson-they realize this is no isolated act. It's the opening night of a deadly series, and Elias is the unwilling lead in a script written by a psychopath. With dark humor as their shield and the spotlight burning hotter with every move, they must catch the curtain before it falls-on them. Perfect for fans of twisted mysteries and unlikely heroes, The Crimson Spotlight is the first act in a gripping new series where every clue is a line, every death a scene, and the finale is far from guaranteed.Complete
Logan Henderson Is In Love With Me?!
"Naomi I love you," he exclaimed looking at me straight in the eyes. This took me by surprise because we have been friends for so many years and I didn't think he would have these feelings towards me. I mean I'm not going to lie I have the same feelings for him but I don't want our friendship to get ruined. I saw a man dressed all in black watching us from afar, but Logan didn't see him because he was facing me. Logan put his hands firmly on my shoulders and looked at me straight in the eyes. "Naomi, did you hear me? I love you. I've been in love with you since the day I met you," he told me. "Yes I heard you Logan. It's just that," I began to say but I got cut off when I saw the man pull out a gun. "Logan look out," I told him turning him to where I was standing and taking the bullet. "Naomi," he exclaimed worried. "Logan I just want to say that I love you too," I said feeling my eyes starting to close and putting my hand on his cheek. "NOO WHY?! I SHOULD'VE BEEN THE ONE TO GET SHOT NOT YOU," he exclaimed. He knelt down and had me in his arms and called an ambulance immediately. I have no idea what happened afterwards because my eyes closed on their own. Copyright © 2022 Naomi14, All Rights Reserved.Complete
When The Curtains Drop
[Previously named Rosegold] Rose Veretta is the heartbeat of the nation. Her smiles on magazine covers are worth a million dollars and to just get one of her clicks was to die for. People loved her and she loved her audience. At least that's what everyone thought. On the other side of the newspaper was a shadow. A serial killer on the loose who had been the nightmare of the PD for the last three months, with 5 murders to their record. Only two things about Robin were known, they considered murder as a form of art, and they loved popularity. What else would explain their obsession with leaving their name and one of their expensive ornaments on the crime scene? Naturally, these two belonged to different worlds. They didn't need to ever cross paths or even considered connected. But surprisingly, all the people Robin killed are one way or another, connected to Rose. Now that's a little too convenient, isn't it? # ONC Prompt 28: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. # ONC 2024 Longlister and Shortlister ONC 2024 Ambassadors Pick Featured in Ambassadors Newsletter June 2024Complete
