My Inspirations
"Unfortunately, I wish it was just a made-up story, something that belonged in the realm of fiction. But it isn't. I'm guessing it started happily at first.

With my lemons, I wanted lemonade, lemon cake, lemon pie, honey and lemon juice, lemon tea, and even lemon water!" I guess now I can't have any of that anymore, right? I messed up big time, and I'll bear the consequences for it all. I just have one wish though... It's as though I'd have been better off never entering this world in the first place.Complete

Soulmates by Summer
Andi: When I get assaulted with hot coffee after an already awful day, I don't count on leaving the encounter with a hot new fake boyfriend. Who just happens to be the infamous Silas Livingstone. Hockey star. My big brother's teammate. Incredibly infuriating and annoyingly handsome. However, the bigger shock is that Silas wants to make a deal-if he can get me to fall in love with him by June, then I go out with him for real. Because I'm never one to back down from a challenge, I agree. Besides, there's no way I'm losing this bet. Summer is less than two months away and life isn't a romcom. I mean, it's not as if it's possible to become soulmates by summer... right? Silas- I've got two months to prove to the girl of my dreams that we're meant to be. Though I don't doubt that she'll eventually come around, problem is, I don't know if I can wait that long to call her mine. Andi is the most stubborn, kindhearted, funniest person I've ever met-and she might just deny what I know she feels for me just to win this stupid bet. But I've never been one to back down from a challenge or to give up what I love. Summer is less than 2 months away. 2 months to show Andi just how much I love her, before I could lose her forever. Life may not be one of those romcoms she loves, but I do believe that there are soulmates-and I've finally found mine. There's no way I'm letting her go come summer.

The Ghosts
My mother always told me when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When someone knocks you down, you get right back up. You fight the good fight until you have nothing left. You fight with honor, you protect the ones you love, and if you just happen to die in the process, than you do so with dignity and grace. What my mother neglected to tell me during my studies was that you don't always get what you want, the outcome you think is coming doesn't always happen, and when the smoke clears, you're always going to be the last one standing. By the end of The Certainty, Georgiana Vertigo is left with nothing more than her life, something many people would be more than happy to have. However, Georgiana is left to her own devices in a strange city, alone and heartbroken with regular intense bouts of depression. In starting a new life with the Guild, Georgiana has everything she needs in order to move on with her life and keep her mind off the past. Only problem is, the past is never truly forgotten and no matter how hard you try to shake them, the feelings that go along with the memories don't just fade away. ~ * ~ Alright, chickens. You asked for it (some of you at least) and here it is...well...part of it. Like I've told a few of you, this is a work in progress. I add pieces to it when I think of them. The posting on this story will NOT be regular but thankfully for you, I have quite a bit of it done. I just haven't decided if the path I take it down is the right one. So. I hope you enjoy it and I will give you a forewarning that as the story progresses, it gets a bit more adult. For those of us just joining the party because they stumbled across it in the Paranormal category, there is a whole series of books you have to read until you get to this one. Go start with The Beginning. You can find it under "My Works" on my home page.Complete
