Meet Valencia Williams, an overworked surgical intern who isn't the biggest fan of superheroes. In fact, she dislikes them almost as much as a supervillain would. 

But one day, she encounters Strong Man: a new, amateur superhero who's nothing like the other superheroes she's read or heard about. He's different. Mainly because his face turned white when he saw her mugger wielding a knife, and because he nearly threw up when she had to give him a tetanus shot. 

Strong Man's not your average superhero, that's for sure. But this unlikely hero might just have what it takes to change Valencia's mind about supers like him, and save the world from a formidable villain who's about to take center stage.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.

The Starlight Sentinels: The Amusing Story of a Struggling Superhero Team by JGrayDingler
8 parts Complete
A man, a woman, a boy, a girl, a demon, and an alien, all walk into a bar... THEY FIGHT CRIME! The Starlight Sentinels goes beyond The Watchmen's question of "Who would want to be a superhero?" by asking "Who would want to be a superhero if being a superhero was just another job people needed doing?" The Starlight Sentinels, that's who! They're not your traditional superhero team, and they're not the other guys either, nor are they the grizzled antihero type. Instead, they're just people who happen to work as superheroes in a world where being a superhero isn't so much a call to greatness as it is an eccentric career choice and super villains are just another problem that people try not to think about. Drawing inspiration from films such as Shawn of the Dead and TV series such as the Venture Bros, the Starlight Sentinels was crafted to be an amusing and occasionally action-packed adventure grounded by a diverse cast of humorous but relatable characters. You may laugh at their numerous missteps, but you'll also be cheering for these heroes and heroines hard-earned triumphs as well. Join this comedic costumed cabal in their debut adventure as they fight crime and battle the forces of evil anytime they're not stuck filling out forms for the police, trying to appease their overbearing corporate sponsor, struggling to gain recognition from an apathetic public, or arguing over whose turn it is to do the shopping in this hilarious tongue-in-cheek tale that takes on all things superhero! If you enjoy the first half of The Starlight Sentinels, you can pick up the full book on every major eBook seller, or order a printed copy from Amazon or Createspace.

*Book #1 In The Unlucky Series* "They say lightning never strikes the same place twice. But what if you were just unlucky enough to experience it?" 26 year old resident doctor Elliot "Ellie" Blakely has always been unlucky in life. After the tragic death of her mother, the remarriage of her father and her own struggles to form a healthy relationship with anyone, Ellie prefers to keep to herself, occasionally confiding in her best friend, Margot, and busying herself with the constant demanding doctoring job she took after graduating medical school years ago. Ellie never thought she was lucky and her suspicions come true when she is suddenly struck by a rogue lightning strike in a thunderstorm. Miraculously surviving the strike, Ellie tries to go back to her normal life but soon finds that she has begun to develop strange abilities that cause her to shock, zap and burn whomever she touches. With her new budding abilities quickly spiralling out of control, Ellie has nobody to turn to and Ellie soon discovers that the crime within her city is rapidly worsening with the appearance of a so-called supervillain called Black Death who may know more about her situation then anyone else. What will happen when Ellie meets Black Death to understand what may be happening to her and when she discovers that the supervillain is an attractive, reclusive billionaire named Dominic Reid who she finds that she has more in common with then she thought?

(This is targeted for people 16+) "Same with hurting you. Or marking you.." He slid his arm gently down to his back, closing his hand around a bruise that lay on the hero's waist. The hero flinched at the action, still keeping his lips sealed. "I can be the only one capable of doing it.." "Your fucking crazy..." The hero sighed with a bit of fear hidden in his tone. The man smiled with the description, turning his head in the direction of Oxzy's ear, he spoke with a sweet voice. "I can make you go even crazier than me Ox..." ------- A hero and a villain in the same low-profile town, they battle. One protecting, one destroying. The town tries to break them apart, but instead... They grow closer. The hateful and spiteful relationship can only last for so long. So long until it becomes something that can be remotely called anything like love. Love that ends up revolving around trauma and the hindering of emotions. The hero will run, and the villain will follow. ------- WARNING: - Mature & sexual content on certain chapters, - A r*pe scene;(DO NOT ROMANTICIZE) - Sexual assault, - A toxic relationship & characters, - Real like trauma scenarios, - Death, - Gore, (excessive blood description 😅)
