There's a problem with Evelyn. She isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. In fact, the empty-headed woman went from quiet and reserved to plain ignorant when words are thrown out of her mouth. And it's undoubtedly ruining her life, making her want to take it now. But the only way she can find a foundation of happiness is if she shut the hell up for once and quieted down. Observed and let it all in, instead of spewing out negativity and her lack of knowledge to the world. A charlatan is what she is, and if she doesn't find any common sense, she'll be dead soon enough. And she'll have blood on her hands for it. She's just got to accept whether she wants to take her own life or the lives of other corrupt human beings who have been trying desperately hard to ruin her life by becoming a vigilante and taking them down. But she doesn't want to deal with the law against doing what she thinks is right. That is, until she switches.

Captive{ated}
"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society. Isolated in one of the most sparsely populated areas of the country, it was as if they live in their own little world. They were a traditional village for the most part, but there were some aspects that they did much differently than any other, especially in the ways of courtship. It didn't take long for Evelyn to realize one thing: once you were brought home to meet the parents, there was no escape.Complete

Plans that include Harper McCarthy, who has no idea what truly exists in the world. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All Harper McCarthy wants out of life is to raise her six year old son, Cameron the best she can.

A world she should have always been a part of. With lies and betrayals coming to light, Harper comes to find that she is one of three keys in a prophecy that should have taken place almost a decade ago, one that was thrown off course by someone she trusted the most. While Harper tries to come to terms who...or what she is, Callen must decide whether to embrace his new role or hold onto his resentment for humanity, who he was sworn to protect.
