11 delen Compleet Voor volwassenen
Ember Manchester has it all. She's beautiful, she's rolling in money, and she has a job that she loves. Ember is one of the most renowned computer hackers in the world: respected, sought out by clients across the globe, and the absolute best at what she does. But she wants more, so when she's hired by a mysterious client for a job unlike any other, she springs at the chance. She's been tasked with a near impossible job: hack into a secure government agency, take down their firewall, and steal all of their money. After a job well done, her mysterious client reveals himself as Rylan Ford: a smug, arrogant, and oh so handsome man who simultaneously draws her in and gets under her skin. He reveals that she was hired as a test of her abilities. Wanting to see if she was as good as her reputation suggests, Ember passed his test with flying colors. He then offers her a job: he needs her help running a firm of hackers that take jobs all across the world. Initially reluctant to take the job, Ember finally agrees. Everything is going well until an old associate of hers materializes out of the past, blackmailing her for money and threatening her life. Unknown to Ember, however, Rylan also harbors a dark past, and his demons are much worse than Ember's. Meanwhile, Ember finds herself falling in love with Rylan, who underneath his smug exterior is not much different than herself. When both of their dark pasts threaten to reveal themselves, will their relationship survive? And more importantly, will they?

LoveTober: In the World of Samaritan's Legacy

5 delen Compleet Voor volwassenen

This a collection of prompts I used to write Hember's story in the month of October 2024. Lovetober is my humble attempt at writing romance and is an opportunity to world build before I release "Samaritan's Legacy," which takes place right after this story's end. It is a light romance in which Hember struggles with loneliness brought on by his faith. He is rejected by all he loves and unable to maintain any relationships in his country, Delair, on the planet Orbellus. At the age of 21, he encounters a woman from the city of Nascula in the country of Merigo, and he is captivated by her. That does prevent more issues from arising. In the country of Delair, worshipping the God Hember believes in is unlawful, and he is wrought with confusion, doubt, and fear about what he should do. What he must do, he lacks the will to do it. Although the first part of LoveTober is primarily a romance, the world of Samaritan's Legacy is one that falls into a zombie-like apocalypse. The story will shift slightly to blend into the apocalypse that will come but the main focus will still be the romance.
