Abigail Newman lives her life in fear. Growing up in a town called Louxe, Abigail must present herself perfectly every single day. Clothing, actions, attitudes, and even thoughts, are monitored constantly. Any misstep results in severe punishment.

When at the public execution of a boy younger than herself, Abigail reacts more openly than deemed acceptable. But, it is through the child's own brother that she finds reprieve.

Alexander Wells offers Abigail something she never imagined - freedom. He promises to take her out of Louxe, and into an underground society where imperfection is welcomed.

Abigail must risk her life for a chance to live one she believes in. The only problem - if she's caught, it's not just her own neck on the line anymore, but also that of Alex and everyone he holds dear. Never before has it been so important for Abigail to avoid mistakes as it is right now. She hopes she's up to the challenge.

The Risks by EmJayRey

*****THIS STORY IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING A MASSIVE REWRITE - FINAL WORK IS CURRENTLY BEING POSTED AS A NEW STORY ON MY PAGE - UPDATES SPORADIC ***** "You can't tell me there isn't something here worth risking everything for." [New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: Most of the population is dead, some have turned into vicious, crazed creatures who want nothing more than to eat you, and a small percentage are left to try to survive. Nothing is the way it was. With not much more than a pistol and a vague idea of what she's doing, Claire Harrington ventures out into this new, unforgiving world with only one real goal: to keep her younger sister safe. The odds are against her, until she runs into Parker and finds herself reluctantly accepting his offer to help. Trust is a fragile thing. Humanity is a construct. Love is a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.

Trapped In My Amnesia by lizzzz92

"Sweetheart wake up. You're at the hospital." I looked up and saw the same woman hovering over me. "Oh...okay." I opened my eyes fully and noticed that I was already in the hospital bed. Why on earth did she have to wake me? "So why am I here?" I asked confused. "Well," she said pulling a short and skinny woman into the room. "This very sweet lady saw you on the side of the road and called 9-1-1." I looked up at her and she threw me an evil look. In a way, she seemed strongly familiar. I looked away slowly diving my eyes back into the direction of the nurse. "Before we leave you, I just wanted to let you know that my name is Julia. You can call me whatever works best for you. Julia, Nurse, Nurse Julia. Whatever. I'll be right back with your papers." Sixteen-year-old Abigail Moore, also referred to as Ginger by her boyfriend Cameron Wood, has lived a terrible sixteen years. She grew up with her drug-addict mother who didn't care enough to properly raise her, and she's stuck living alone for a good amount of her teenage years. Once Abigail's mother got put in jail for suspected murder of Abigail's older sister, Julia, Abigail is forced to live with her aunt. Abigail and her aunt get along very well, and she grows up safe and in no harm. Although her life and goals seem set straight and simple to her, her mother and others are always watching, just waiting in Abigail's shadows for the perfect time to strike, and take their next victim in the creepy and deathly darkness of Brett Creek in Colombia Falls, Maine. Abigail's developed amnesia from her horrible past makes it hard for her to live, but the people she fears most in life, make it easier to find the pieces that are missing to complete the puzzle. ******************************************* Also, please vote this for the 2018 Watty's!! ;)

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)

His innocent obsession by Roraprinz

You're right, Abby. You did see me. I've been showing up there a lot. Just to catch a glimpse of you. And until yesterday I've had no luck." I brush my hands along the clothes hanging as I walk closer to her. "So I sat there for an hour just to watch you. It was the best hour of therapy I've ever had." I take the nightgown from her hand, debating on whether I should put it on her or throw it to the ground. "Jackson" She whispers my name like a prayer. I close my eyes and rest my head against hers. "Say it again, Please." "Jackson" Her voice still breathy. Letting the garment drop to the floor i hold her hips. "You're mine Abigail. Do you understand? I'll never be able to let you go." "Then don't Jax." Abby's future brother in law assigns his cousin, and head of security Jackson; to be her personal bodyguard. She wants him to be more than that. Her sister Celeste wants her to find the love of her life-as long as it isn't Jackson. And all Jackson wants is Abbigail.

Flaw by cjcoomans

The Dommasc Society saw the corruption and potential war that new-age movements such as feminism, LGBTQ, and racial equality could bring to their island, and therefore decided to eradicate it. They cut themselves off from the influence of the world, and they would rule their society as they wanted. They never expected their perfectly set out plan to go wrong, but it did and so she was born. Flaw was supposed to be his, but she broke free and started to hunt the hunters. This was never supposed to happen, but she knew that flaws did not last forever, and neither would she. Blake knows her way around the island, so when a mysterious explosion went off, why did she end up being kidnapped, and better yet, why did she feel the need to stay with her kidnapper? Ensley doesn't have long to live, and she knows it. Her heart is getting weaker, but if anybody found out, she would be exiled. When her brother's murderer injects her with a toxin, she feels herself getting better, and falling in love with the one who stole her world from her. [Completed 2019.05.30]
