The Starlight Sentinels: The Amusing Story of a Struggling Superhero Team
A man, a woman, a boy, a girl, a demon, and an alien, all walk into a bar... THEY FIGHT CRIME! The Starlight Sentinels goes beyond The Watchmen's question of "Who would want to be a superhero?" by asking "Who would want to be a superhero if being a superhero was just another job people needed doing?" The Starlight Sentinels, that's who! They're not your traditional superhero team, and they're not the other guys either, nor are they the grizzled antihero type. Instead, they're just people who happen to work as superheroes in a world where being a superhero isn't so much a call to greatness as it is an eccentric career choice and super villains are just another problem that people try not to think about. Drawing inspiration from films such as Shawn of the Dead and TV series such as the Venture Bros, the Starlight Sentinels was crafted to be an amusing and occasionally action-packed adventure grounded by a diverse cast of humorous but relatable characters. You may laugh at their numerous missteps, but you'll also be cheering for these heroes and heroines hard-earned triumphs as well. Join this comedic costumed cabal in their debut adventure as they fight crime and battle the forces of evil anytime they're not stuck filling out forms for the police, trying to appease their overbearing corporate sponsor, struggling to gain recognition from an apathetic public, or arguing over whose turn it is to do the shopping in this hilarious tongue-in-cheek tale that takes on all things superhero! If you enjoy the first half of The Starlight Sentinels, you can pick up the full book on every major eBook seller, or order a printed copy from Amazon or Createspace.Complete
Enigmatic: Sapphire City Supers
**A Wattpad Featured Story** Kenna Jones isn't a Superhero, and she wants to keep it that way. Though her brother, Sebastien, is a star member of the Sapphire City Super team, Kenna keeps her Super abilities to herself and far away from a celebrity lifestyle she finds selfish and disillusioning. For reasons she'd rather forget, she can't stand most Supers, and uses her mildly famous pen name as a kind of secret identity instead. One evening, fiercely independent Kenna meets the new guy, Enigma, in the most annoying circumstances, and finds him slowly chipping away at her prejudices. Then, with Villains on the loose, threatening to foist a great Evil (with a capital E) on Sapphire City and those she holds dear, Kenna has to ask herself one question: is it time for everything to change?Complete
Safe Haven
Matilda Brown has never seen the world outside of the walls. Her community is relatively small, at least compared to the outside world, and yet she's still somehow an outcast. Everyone else around her has powers - ones with fire or speed or the ability to speak every language known to man - and her mother even had two! However, she's stuck with none. Will she ever get her power? Will she ever recognize the abuse from her captor Mr. Osmond and escape him? Benjamin Langley is a university student navigating the loss of his best friend, when he discovers his ability to see the future. Soon after, he's taken by force to the community, and comes to see and entire world he had no knowledge of. Meeting Matilda forces him to consider the fact that escaping quietly might not work out. Cameron Thomas doesn't remember a time when he wasn't in the community, but he's starting to. Or, at least he thinks he is? Like Matilda, he too struggles with his power, not in finding it, but rather in controlling it. Will he get it right when it matters? Oliver Hart is a charismatic veterinarian who discovers he can suddenly hear the animals thoughts. It would've been a powerful career booster if he hadn't been kidnapped and taken to the community. There, he uses his charisma to make a group of friends he'll never forget. The four must fight tooth and nail to make it out of dangerous situations and discover their own feelings along the way.Complete

Anyone But Her
Wren and Kenna hated each other in high school. Now mature-ish adults, they still hate each other. The problem? They're engaged. A year away from marriage, according to two of the most powerful people in the world: their parents. ***** Wren Castile and Kenna Gold are engaged...because their parents say so (and no, they're not kidding). Wren has one year to marry her former nemesis, or else. The fact that Kenna emulated her infamously anti-gay father throughout high school seems to be irrelevant--even to Kenna herself. Suddenly Wren and the girl she never wanted to see again are on the same (bickering) side as they face mandatory dates, disastrous family get-togethers, and their unhappy past. Wren is filled with mistrust, but to protect her heart, she might just have to sit back and let it lead the way.

Ultraviolet
Forced to enlist as a guardian, a pacifist finds hope within a passionate singer. --- (A Triple Point story.) Mackenzie Olomana enjoys chatting up strangers, giving great hugs, and crying for happy endings; he absolutely does not like violence, horror movies, and when people are in pain. So being forced to enlist as a guardian, where he's surrounded by everything he dislikes on a daily basis, probably wasn't the best career path for him. Unfortunately, his healing meta-abilities didn't give him much of a choice, but he's willing to accept that (sort of) and just take life one day at a time. Patience finally pays off when he meets Jordan Minseok Song. To most, Jordan is a successful pop star known for his silky voice and incredibly polite personality. But there's a goofy and charming persona hiding behind Jordan's public exterior, and finding it leaves Mack with a warmth he never expected. Except something is holding Jordan back, and Mack can see it's hurting him in ways that others might not notice. Fortunately, Mack knows a thing or two about healing, even when it involves pains of the past. With his help, maybe then Jordan can feel his warmth for himself. And maybe then they can both find happiness, together. --- Word Count: +45k Genres: Romance, Science FictionComplete
Love-Love || OLD DRAFT
[THIS IS AN OLD DRAFT. Please read the rewrite that is currently up on my profile] ............ "Look, man, I'm sorry, okay? I didn't mean to rob the bank but I'm broke and I need the money." "If you need money, go get a job!" "I have a job!" "A real job, not blowing up the city -" "This is a real job, Stormy. It keeps you employed. I don't have to pay TAXES." ~ Super Storm is your typical superhero with stunning blonde hair and high morale.

Light (discontinued)
(Book 1 of the Team B Series) Superheroes. Not many teens have the pleasure of saying they're one. Except these 7: The 'Storm Sisters' Jade and Eliza, the cyborg Griffin, the basically plastic-girl Kelly, the literal down to earth Rosie, Shadow, who is basically the male version of Raven. And Amitt, a punk rocker with a soft side for animals...hence his powers. All going to a school for the next generation of superheroes. Or is it just heroes?

The perfect timing (In Editing)
I'm not like wonder woman, supergirl or catwoman. The only similarity we share is that we all have an extraordinary ability and are females. Many people would say having superpowers was a gift from god and the best thing that could ever happen to you. But not for me, being able to freeze time was more of a burden, because I couldn't control it and it had the worst timing to appear. I also didn't think about being a superhero and rescuing the world from the bad. The only thing I want is to be left alone and get over with my last year of high school. But of course everything came different and it all started with me attracting accidentally the attention of Reece Matthews. (cover made by Cjc8357)Complete
