[ ONC 2019 | Ambassador's Pick | Judge's Honorable Mention ] 

[ Formerly Featured on Wattpad's Official @mystery account's Elementary, My Dear reading list ] 

The New Year kicked off to a bloody start for the private detective duos - Jamie Loxley and Blaine Ebony, as they strode into a murder scene. 

Two heads are better than one when it comes to disentangling a case. But, when a simple interrogation turns into a convoluted string of head game, figuring out the puzzle pieces won't be plain sailing. And, it doesn't help that the subjects are an immigrant who has trouble speaking English, an alcoholic suffering memory issues and a pathological liar. 

The grand form of deception will always be camouflaged in front of our very eyes.

                                                       ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

✨COMPLETED✨ I took a few steps before I stopped to face him again. "Jay?" I said, barely above a whisper. "Hmm?" "I love you. You know that right?" I asked, kind of unsure. "of course. Of course I do." He said, scrunching his eyebrows as if he doesn't understand why I would randomly say that. "I love you very much." I repeated, every bone in my body aching from this pain, this betrayal. What I'm doing, or going to do, is definitely some form of betrayal. But I don't have a choice, right? He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story. She falls and trips over random stuff, says the weirdest words ever, but she is one of the smartest would-be detectives out there. One random day, she gets thrown into her school basement and almost dies. Then from there on out - her worst nightmares came to life one by one. She gets kidnapped and terrorized by people she would've never expected, she gets threatened in the worst way and in that journey - she discovers what true friendship and sacrifice meant. Join her on her journey of friendship, love, and sacrifice. A little crime here and there and a little love sprinkled on top.

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

Blair Evermore: a simple kid with a complicated life. With a brother that would do anything for her and two FBI agents for parents, she doesn't have the safest life. She was never the first to volunteer her parents for career day, and "bring your child to work" was a foreign concept. But she liked it that way. She didn't know any different. Blair was content with the way things were, because even though they were distant, she always knew her parents loved her. But all that changed on her nineth birthday. That's when she experienced the hardest year anyone could imagine. One month that felt like a lifetime. A week full of tears and sorrow. And one day that changed her life forever. October 27th, the day her parents died. Killed during a last-minute undercover job, Amanda and Bryan Evermore were prepared for the inevitable. That didn't make it any easier for their children though. Grayson and Blair's whole world turned upside down. Neither of them knew what to do, but they coped the best they could. Now, seven years later, Grayson is missing. Without any leads or witnesses, the FBI is having trouble finding him. That was until Blair got involved. With a letter from her parent's murderers, another from Grayson's potential kidnappers, and a whole lot of will power, she leads her new-found FBI buddies through riddles, secrets, and puzzles, gathering as much information as they can to get justice for her family. She knew exactly what she was going to do once they found the people who destroyed her all those years ago. She would make them pay. But sometimes what we plan doesn't always work out quite right. ************************* Started:1/1/2023 Finished: 9/26/2024 © 2023 Taylor Sassone Cover by my amazing sister @owlhootsburger13
