You all know the story. America Singer captured the heart of Prince Maxon. The rebels attacked. The King and Queen were killed. Maxon became King, and then went on to eradicate the caste system. They had four kids, two of which were twins. The eldest, Eadlyn, went on to become Queen, with Eikko as her Prince Consort.
None of that matters now.
It is decades after the rule of Eadlyn, and things have taken another turn for the worst. The war in New Asia led to World War V, and in order to get ahold of his country, the wicked King Wayland Schreave has reinstituted the caste system. The country is in a massive state of poverty, save for castes two and three, who were the people who had something to give to the king.
But one day, everything came tumbling down.
The King, Queen, and their two children were all in a car accident orchestrated by the rebels, or Ribelli, as they call themselves. The king, queen, and three-year old princess were all pronounced dead on scene. The only surviving member was Prince, now King, Hadyn Schreave.
The laws of Illea state that a King must have a bride within three months of his rule, otherwise the crown will be taken, and the next kin in line will be given the throne.
Desperately, the now King announces a very old tradition, The Selection, in hopes of finding a wife before the crown must be given to Yael Illea, descendent of Gregory Illea himself.
The only question now, is who will win the King's broken heart?

Truly Selected (Book One of The Next Selection Series)
~ 'Matthew slid closer to me so our bodies were pressed up against each other in a not to intimate way. "I hope I cross your mind every once in a while," Matthew said in an almost whisper. "Just so I don't feel so pathetic for thinking of you all the time." I felt my heart beat at a rapid pace as he said those words to me. Nothing like that had ever been said to me before, and that was all it took for me to reach up to Matthew and connect my lips with his.' ~ Twenty-one years ago, America Singer entered the Selection with no intention of claiming Prince Maxon's heart for herself Now, another Selection is about to surface, and Illéa is more excited than ever. Not only did Maxon and America provide an heir, but twin sons. Sol Soble, a Four from Kent, wanted nothing to do with the Selection. Her life was no fantasy with magic sugar castles and money growing on trees, but she loved Kent and certain things in it; and for that, the Selection wasn't in her best interest. But after a sudden tragedy, Sol's world is rocked to its core and she is doing things she never thought she would do; entering the Selection, going to the Palace, and maybe, even starting to fall in love. It's only common knowledge that when people don't learn from history, it's often doomed to repeat itself. --------------------- DISCLAIMER: All rights go to Kiera CassComplete

Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete
Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
