~"When are you going to do what's best for you Sadie? All you ever do is what's best for Hallie and push your own wants and needs to the bottom of the pile and let it hurt everyone else in the process."~ Sadie Taylor has been back in her hometown for 6 short months. After leaving 11 years ago, it's fair to say that her life now is a 180 spin on the free innocent teenager she left as. With her 9 year old daughter, Hallie, in toe, Sadie needs to find a new kind of normality where se can release the reins of control and learn to let go a little. She's more than happy taking things at her own pace. Hoping that if she moves slow enough, she can keep her and her daughter in their own little bubble that has kept them safe all these years. But with the arrival of a familiar stranger arriving at Black Oak Ranch, things are set to be more complicated than she'd been counting on. Ryder Matthews fucked up and he knows it. 11 years ago, he left the love of his lie in some pre-college life freak out and when he returned 3 years later, she was gone. After spending the better part of 14 months travelling the world in hopes of finding some kind of meaning to life outside of the little town where every turn is a burning memory of Sadie, he returns with no hope. He's stuck to deal with his consequences. A week after his return home, Ryder heads to Jack Taylor's ranch to get his old farm hand job back. When he steps out of the car, a 9 year old girl greets him and when her mom comes to see what the fuss is all about, he's met with the last person he thought he'd ever see back in Alcombey. Let alone with a child. Ryder and Sadie have a lot of baggage to unpack if they have any hope of being able to tolerate working together. But when his heart is still beating for her and her heart is locked behind solid concrete walls, is that even possible?Complete
Keeping Her 18+ (Her Series book three)
Alex: Going to the beach with my friends for a week before sophomore year of college seemed like the perfect way to take control of my life and get out from under my parent's thumbs.

Once Upon A Steampunk
Story 2 of short Steampunk story, an aircraft officer and a postman try to find the cure of a strange poison in an island full of dragons and sky pirates. To me, Once upon a Steampunk is a captivating journey into an alternate reality, where the gears of the Industrial Revolution turn in harmony with fantastical elements and a touch of Victorian elegance. In this mesmerizing tale, the air is thick with steam, and the clinking of mechanical contraptions resounds through the cobbled streets. Immerse yourself in a world where steam-powered marvels and clockwork wonders coexist with corsets, top hats, and elaborate fashion. The landscape is a fusion of the familiar and the extraordinary, where towering airships navigate the skies and intricately designed automatons carry out daily tasks.Complete
Solivagant
If you've read one book, you've read them all. Right? Wrong? For Robinne James, every book she turns her hand to follows the same predictable, mind-numbing pattern. When you're able to predict a book's outcome from the first chapter, who wouldn't lose interest? She's tired of the same old boy-meets-girl story, as no one ever truly had a life like they do in romance books. Her own life has the same dull, predictable, mind-numbing pattern and as a result, she decides to uproot her life and swap it for hopefully much better one in the small Texas town of Dripping Springs. As a struggling freelance editor and hopeful future author, it wasn't too difficult a decision to make. Moving across the Atlantic will hopefully be a better life for her. It wasn't like she had much of a life back home in England to lose, should her decision be a bad one. Dripping Springs will hopefully be the place where she will finally discover who she should really be, finding a life that she never dreamed of having back home. Then again, straightforward plans had a way of veering off now and then, didn't they? Trying to figure herself out in her new home in her new life in America, including who she wants to be while avoiding as many clichés as possible, she now has to navigate around one stubborn, hard-headed yet pure-hearted cowboy. Oh, not to mention his four other brothers, his doting mother, his equally as stubborn father and one useless ranch dog. She came over to start a new and unique life with plenty of brand new experiences to boot, well she was about to get her wish. Just, times a million. Enjoy the ride.Complete
