Incommensurable Kindness
A geneticist looking for the perfect solution, a biologist searching for the ultimate cure, a scholar pursuing the path of happiness. Three young lives with noble intentions who chose to follow the way of kindness for different reasons. Yet, kindness can take many forms. For some, kindness is found in the small, fleeting acts of goodness, a reminder of the pure, social nature of every precious human. For others, kindness is found in ensuring the best possible future for the incoming generations, even if it means crushing the present between the hands of progress. For the rarest of minds, however, kindness implies destruction, the sacrifice of everything for the sake of a brand new better world. Will they encounter change their mind? Will they accomplish their mission? Will they regret the choices they have made so far? Some believe that even the tiniest pebble thrown in the river of life can irreversibly shape the flow of existence in unpredictable ways, but can a ripple truly change the world?

I'm Accidentally in Love (Fireafy)
Here's a Love Story and if you want more stuff, then Call Me Maybe. I Swear this story is going to be pretty good just like the Shape of You. I'll make this Whenever, Wherever and you'll be quite Amazed with this story and there's probably going to be a few Photograph of things happening, this story is going to be Perfect. I need to stop with these song references, I just made 8 references like damn, wait change that, it's 9 with the title of this story but also technically 10 because there's two songs called Photograph. The characters are in high school and there's some random audition for some random love story and why? Because we need this story to be as cliché as possible. Firey wants to join 'cause he's got nothing better to do but then he finds out Leafy is also trying to audition and with the fact they encounter each other in a game, both are now Accidentally in Love. Is that cliché? Humanized If this story was a movie, it would be rated PG-13, why? Mild swears (damn, crap) and mild romantic themes (Kissing and maybe some make out, who knows?) These ar

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
