As punishment for playing doorbell ditch, twelve-year-old Tallia Thompson and her goofball brother Isaiah are shipped off to their grandparents’ house for half the summer. There’s nothing fun about being stuck in Maryland, a.k.a. Snore-a-land, except for one thing: the close proximity to Washington, D.C.
Tallia would do anything for Isaiah, and what he wants most is to meet the President of the United States. So together, they formulate a plan to get to the White House--a plan that involves spending a bit of money and concocting a bunch of lies. And, ultimately, a plan that ends up changing Tallia’s perception of her family forever.

In Case You Missed It ✔
Jace 'Go Away' Parker, purely standoffish with a pierced brow and cold grey eyes is packing his bags to leave and for some rare occasion, it wasn't because of his fluency in sarcasm and raw truth. Moving into a new town wasn't his choice and to his dismay, Gold Wood High is no different... Now he's counting down his freedom from the stereotypical cliques highschool can never be without. But what's worse than dumb shirt stealing jocks is the town sheriff's daughter, one massive hair-pulling irritation takes the form of alluring green eyes, pink manicure and pompoms that is Whitney 'The Brat' Fallon. It all started because of one stupid request-- something that goes beyond everything the tattoed badboy brunette is against. What happens one heroic night takes a different turn when he realizes there's more to the blonde cheerleader than what meets the eye. Could Jace finally scratch his middle name and 'Lean Closer' for a change? In Case You Missed It, sometimes you gotta trust the ripples of the water instead of paddling your own canoe to take you where you needed to be. •︎──≫•◆•≪︎──• 🐚1st Place Teen Fiction - Banana Awards 🐚1st Place Humor - Guilded Raven Awards 🐚1st Place Chicklit/Humor - The Deli Awards 🐚1st Place Funny - The Valentine's Awards 🐚Best TeenFic Cover - Banana Awards 🐚Best Title - Phosphene Awards 🐚Most Romantic Couple - Banana Awards 🐚2nd Place in Best Blurb - Glow Awards 🐚3rd Place in Best Title - Banana Awards ©All Rights Reserved 2021 | MoniQuillComplete

The Beast's Kryptonite
"Mine." His low growl of possession took my heart and the fate of my panties. They were soaked through with arousal. Damn it. I stroked his face as he sniffed the air. I prayed he couldn't smell my body's reaction to his. His hand slipped from my waist and traveled to the rip in my dress. "I can smell how much your body craves mine." My breath catches as his hand finds it home at the front of my panties. "Why don't you just submit yourself to me? Accept that you are mine and mine alone?" His hand was traveling lower, and he found my clit rubbing it through my underwear. I couldn't help but lean my head back and moan out at his skillful administration on my pussy."Moan, my name, my innocent mate. Tell everyone who is making you feel this pleasure."He had ripped my underwear off me and threw them across to hit another tree. He propped me up against the tree, causing me to hold onto his shoulders for support as his fingers took advantage of my spread legs, my dress completely exposing my pussy to him."Absolutely Ravishing." One of his thick fingers pumped its way into my hole, causing me to moan loudly into his ear. "Seth." ********* Seth Knight was not one for romance; everyone at Quillwood High School knew that. If you were a girl, you were in danger of being his next distraction. He would fuck a girl, the girl would fall in love, and he would leave. It was what had always happened. But there was a time before he had become a player. His old best friend, Belle Rivers, the innocent, sweet girl he had known since birth, kept the darkness at bay. Their mothers had been best friends since high school and conceived only months apart. They were destined to be.

Unintended Consequences
"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.
