A NEW EDIT OF THE PREVIOUS ATTEMPT (see below)
"My past is the future, and my future is the past."
Elizabeth Rhinehart Garrison, who was sent into the past against her will, has settled into 1870s Wyoming with her rancher husband and adorable stepson. But when she is forced to timeslip back to present-day Chicago, can she get back to the Old West life that she chose? Or will she, like her husband, decide she has a few scores to settle first?
This is an IN PROGRESS work, and 4th book in a series.
As of AUGUST 2019, I have decided to seriously revamp this, especially the part of the story that is set in modern-day Chicago. I'm probably doing away with the "sending homeless people back in time to hunt them" plot, which just isn't me. More important, I need to give Lillabit back some of her sense of fun from previous works (my own issues with depression have colored some of her decisions, or lack thereof). My apologies to any of you who got invested in that version! I've kept your comments, in case they vanish with the ditched chapters.
Consider it a chance to see how a multi-published author (I've also published/won awards as Evelyn Vaughn) creates her raw material. COMMENTS ARE SO VERY WELCOME, and the fuel that keeps me going!
The series began with "OVERTIME 1: Searching" and "OVERTIME 2: Turning," available on Amazon.com. "OVERTIME 3: Slipping" will be on WattPad until it is published on Amazon.

Green Kestrel and Blue Hawk (My Life With the Walter Boys)
**This fic was planned out before S3 dropped, I am just still finishing it up! :) Once I am done with this fic, I will do a new fic that will be a a series of one shots about Kalex, some related to S3 and some original ideas** ______ The incoming Kiley/Dylan/Alex love triangle in S3 of My Life With The Walter Boys has got me completely hooked. I went looking for content online and could barely find any, aside from some TikTok edits. So, I figured I would write an on-going fic myself. I was so happy that we got a lot more time with Kiley in S2 as she kept growing on me. I thought it would be interesting to do the fic from her perspective since she's the center of the new love triangle. This story will cover what could possibly have happened after George went to the hospital, and into Kiley and Alex's second semester of junior year and Dylan's last semester at Silver Falls High as a senior. Whether you like Kalex (Kilex in the book!) or Kylan better there will be something for everyone in this, though I think my end game is obvious! There is a bit of Isaac/Grace in this too, and of course our beloved Katherine/George (HE'S ALIVE, OK?!) There will also be some Jackie/Cole where relevant as well as and Erin/Danny (my second favorite MLWTWB ship) and even some Grace/Isaac! PLEASE add comments and suggestions for anything you might like to see and I will possibly use it as inspo! The community aspect of this story is going to be one of the most fun parts for me as I go :) *This world and its characters belong to the Netflix TV show it was inspired by*
Wildfire | Kayce Dutton • Yellowstone
If you were to ask me what if was like to fall in love with a cowboy, I would say it's like a wildfire. Once it starts, there's no way of stoping it. It burns you alive from the inside out. Consumes you, every part of you. At least that's how it felt for me when I fell for a cowboy, one who wasn't even mine and could never be mine because he belonged to somebody else and I'm left with figuring out how to put out this fire that is loving Kayce Dutton. ***** Darkness and tragedy was all Wren Wheeler knew from the day she was brought into this world. The only good thing in her life was her older brother, Rip. The one who saved her from the brutal ending their mother and younger brother weren't so lucky to escape from. She didn't believe they would ever have a chance of surviving out in the world. Not until John Dutton gave them a second chance at life, just as long as they swore to never bring their past with them to his ranch. The ranch where she found herself a family, a sister she never had, and a love she swore she'd never allow herself to experience. Because that kind of love was never meant for a girl like her. Kayce Dutton was never meant for her, and he could never be. They could never exist. Will destiny prove her wrong?
Arnesto Modesto: The World's Most Ineffectual Time Traveler
This story is a full-length novel on Amazon (and elsewhere) and is currently (12/12/2018) a #1 best-seller in Time Travel Fiction in Australia. Though I'm unlikely to make big changes at this point, comments are always welcome and typos almost certainly squashed. Now the REAL description: What if you could go back and do it all over again? By sending his memories back in time, Arnesto Modesto gives himself a do-over. Of course, his much younger self may not be prepared to handle all that foreknowledge... Encouraged by his friend Pete, Arnesto attempts to use his limited recall to do some good - and winds up stumbling through some of the biggest events of the past quarter-century. Take it from Arnesto: Life isn't easier the second time around. (Think Groundhog Day if the main character went much farther back and only got to repeat his life ONCE.) For anyone who has ever wondered, "What if?"Complete

But two years later, Ling was still staring out the glass window of her penthouse, fingers wrapped around a cold mug of coffee she never finished. CEO. Heiress. Fiancée to a ghost. Her world ended once... And then again, when she was forced to marry someone who wasn't even hers to begin with. The vows weren't meant for her. The dress wasn't either. But the name on the marriage certificate? Ling Ling Kwong. And the bride beside her? Orm. Her sister's fiancée. It was supposed to be temporary. A contract. Just one year to protect the family name and walk away. But no one told her love doesn't follow contracts. And no one warned her how cruel memory could be. Because just when Ling finally opened her heart again... Orm forgot everything. Forgot their laughter. Their fights. Their promises. Forgot her. And now, Ling wasn't sure she had the strength to lose her all over again. DISCLAIMER This story is purely fictional. It has no connection to real-life events, individuals, or entities, whether living or deceased. Any similarities are purely coincidental and unintentional.

Fragments of a Broken Timeline (Sly Cooper OC) [Book 3]
"I'm not angry because you dragged me into this whole time traveling mess, I'm angry because you lied straight to my face..." In a perfect world, everyone would be happy with the hand they're dealt, but more often than not, that just isn't the case. After discovering that Sly has faked his amnesia, Rae is beyond livid with him to the point where she doesn't even want to work with him, much less be near him. However, when their family timeline is in peril, Rae now has no choice but to bite the bullet and work with Sly and the gang on this one, but with a slight twist. Bentley has created a time machine so that they can travel through time and restore these strange anomalies before their family history is forever corrupted by the likes of a man who goes by the name of Ceril Le Paradox. Now, forced to tag along on another adventure involving time travel, Rae must resolve her differences with Sly if they ever wish to repair their fragmented timeline. However, what happens when Sly gets tired of playing this game with her, and what secrets will be revealed once he finally confronts her about it? In a story filled with drama, unexpected twists, and an unintential betrayal, the gang must travel through time in order to repair the timeline, otherwise their future may be corrupted for the worst. Disclaimer: I do not own Sly 4: Thieves in Time or its characters, only mine and any changes to the story. Will follow the events of the fourth game, and will contain mature content, such as violence, string language, and other mature themes, so as always, viewer discretion is advised. Sly/Oc. Second sequel in series/third book. Read Black Rose and A Thief's Honor in order to understand details. Also, I do not own cover art or any images used in story. Original art belongs to their respectable owners, and as for Bob's speech pattern, I am actually going to have him speak normally since the mammoths do in that time period just so everything makes more sense.Complete
