My name is Laura Collins and I'm on the run. My life was pretty normal, I was a nurse, I was living with my best friend in the best city on earth. I saw my family most weekends, life was good. But everything changed while I was on the job and witnessed a murder.
I was put into the witness protection program after an attempt was made on my life but they still found me. Convinced there was a leak I decided that the safest thing for me was to run on my own. I hit the road and drove until my car wouldn't drive anymore.
I ended up down south and found myself a live in nanny/tutor gig and thought I'd be safe there. The job was for a single dad of three and I thought it would keep me busy and out of site. But what happens when you find out the single dad is a cop, and not just a cop but a detective. And this detective was working on a case regarding the same drug cartel you were involved with? You've been there for a couple months, his family is attached to you and have already started to grow feelings for him. Do you tell him and risk him hating you for lying and possibly putting his family in danger? Or do you run again, and leave them with the same unanswered questions your family back home has?
Will Laura run again or find the courage to stand and fight.

It hurts....the emptiness [reborn as Rebekah Mikealson]
You know....when you first hear that fast beating heartbeat.... everything else melts away, the stress of finding out you're pregnant at 16, your boyfriend ghosting you after you showed him the test, your parents abandoning you when you need them most.....it all goes away and you finally found what you been looking for all along....unconditional love and that's exactly what I felt towards you my love...my sun flower...my baby......God gave me 2 years to be your mother and now the memories hurt......love I am so sorry mommies coming. Dani Winters was on her way home from her friends house, listening to her son talk random things when suddenly a car came out of nowhere and rammed the side of her car, she slowly opened her eyes only to groan out a gasp and tried to turn to check on Tommy.....only to let out an agonizing scream after and lost consciousness. The doctors tried to save her, she came back a few times but she didn't want to....she didn't want to live in a world without her son....they fought to bring her back....well she fought to stay dead, so what happens when the next time she wakes she's in a coffin wearing a 20s dress and having the most hungry inducing thirst.....and her only thought 'It hurts.' Warning this will have discussions about suicidal thoughts/actions, death of a child, depression, blood, gore, murder, etc⚠️⚠️⚠️

Okay, so being a detective's assistant isn't as glamorous as it sounds. There's a lot of running, dodging, almost getting cursed, and Liam giving me his signature disappointed dad stare every time I "accidentally" provoke a ghost. (In my defense, it was already mad). But hey, it's not all bad! We solve some pretty bizarre cases-supernatural hauntings, creepy murders, missing persons, and the occasional "Is this artifact going to kill me? " situation. And lucky for us (mostly me), I have light magic! Super handy for, you know, not dying. Liam? Oh, he's the classic detective type-cool, sharp, and completely unimpressed by my creative problem-solving skills (which may or may not include bribing spirits with snacks). But deep down, I think he appreciates my help. Probably. Hopefully? Anyway, lately, things have been getting extra weird, even by our standards. Something big is happening in the city, and I have a bad feeling we're about to end up knee-deep in trouble. Again. But hey, what's a little danger when you've got an overworked detective, questionable decision-making skills, and a bit of magic on your side? Sincerely, Penelope Harper Start: 03/01/2023 End:-
The Fake Cartel Wife
My tears drop on the diamonds already stained with my blood. His thumb strokes my cheek and removes a strand of my disheveled hair. -It's okay, Pea. It's over. His lips find mine. His kiss is soft at first, to comfort me. Then it gets more intense, possessive. Our eyes meet. His are burning. -I will never let anyone hurt you again. I promise. You are mine and mine only, Cassiopea Medina. ****** In rural Colombia, Cassiopea is just starting her young adult life. She wants to leave behind a poor and unstable family to live an easy life. She gets an unexpected offer from the boss of the local cartel. To get married to him and be the stepmother of his three sons. The twist? He already has a lover. How will the life of a cartel leader's wife treat Cassiopea? ****** Author's notes The story is written with the first-person POV of a young 19-year-old woman. I tried my best not to let my (older) brain made her sound too mature for her age... There are scenes of violence, death, domestic abuse, alcoholism and sexual content, please be advised. In chapters with * there will be mature content. Also, I had a hard time choosing the male lead character... At the end, the story flow and the characters decided for me. So, if you are up for a little game, try finding this ML before he reveals himself! Finally, English is not my native language. I'm sorry if you find grammatical mistakes. Don't hesitate to let me know!

Her grief pulls her straight into the orbit of her cousin Tessa-who drags her into cocaine, all-nighters, and eventually court-ordered rehab. Months later, Jenna gets caught and ends up in the same facility, stuck in the same destructive cycle. Rehab doesn't save them. It traps them together long enough to get pregnant. So they run. From Florida to California, the girls survive off prostitution, drugs, strangers, and whatever numbness they can find. They fall in with Parker and his crew, drifting from state to state until Jenna ends up married just to stay alive. But chaos doesn't slow down-Tessa loses her baby, the crew abandons them, and a car accident takes Tessa's life before Jenna can stop it.

Dark Passions
I have a stalker. I know everyone eventually has one and some are solved over time or through restraining orders. But let's take a moment and imagine this scenario; restraining orders, or anything in that nature, wouldn't solve the problem. There was nothing you can do to be free. This stalker can bounce up and over law boundaries, manipulates others, and the deceiving appearance makes others call you a liar. Even without those, this man is beyond what I now call normal. He's cruel and vindictive, and he puts criminals away for a living. He isn't the average stalker; he's smart. And when I say smart, well, that's something you'll have to see for yourself. I walked right into this dark rift, and for the longest time there was no way out. Until I discovered his one flaw. And that may just happen to be his downfall.Complete
