Addiction (Book One of the Addiction Series)
Danika Rose is not your average teenager. While most of her peers are going to parties and worrying about finals, she is struggling with an addiction to a substance more powerful than any drug: magic. This addiction has torn her family apart and has turned all of her friends against her. She has used the people she loves and made them think she is unreliable at best - and dangerous at worst. After a devastating wake-up call, she decides to get sober... but it isn't so easy. She begins to think that she will never recover until she meets someone who will change everything: a boy named Adam Keane. Adam is handsome, smart, funny - everything you could want in a guy. There's just one problem: Adam has more strong, potent magic inside him than anyone she has ever met. As she falls for him, she can't help but wonder if it is him she loves, or if it is the magic. Is she attracted to his sweet kind demeanor? Or to the power she wants to take for herself? As the first novelette in the Addiction series reaches its dramatic, heart-stopping conclusion, Danika must decide if she can love Adam without losing herself - and her sobriety - in the process.Complete
MIDDLE GROUND
What if your family made a deal with demons of the night and now they've come back to collect on that IOU? What if you are the IOU? Evelyn has finally finished her academic career and is ready to get to work on her corporate career. Little does she know she's been promised to a clan of vampires due to an ancient treaty that signed away her life. Evelyn's life is changed forever when a beautiful, dominant, dark demon kidnaps her. She can't lean on logic to find her footing in this middle ground. *** Please know there are mature parts to this book.

Sound Mind & Heart
AOT Various × Fem! Reader| y/n was a glutton for smiles and laughter. Hearing and seeing others happy gave her some sort of fulfillment. Despite everything around her, there were two conflicting voices telling her something. One softly whispered for her to die. While the other one screamed for her to return home. There was something beyond the walls that called for her. Maybe she could get back to this home or just die. Still, the scouts were going to help her with that. All she can do is try. |You can find this story on Tumblr, Quotev, and AO3.|

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.
