Barry's life
Two people fall in love in unlikely circumstances. They have a lot of psychological issues and mistrusts in the order of things to prevent them from finding themselves and each other. I am a reader of crime novels and hard science fiction almost exclusively, and yet this story, which I have been writing for a long time, is a love story, I can't explain it even to myself. The characters will have to work through hardship and evolve to be able to surrender to the magical things around them and the flow of the universe and the love of other people. This story still is a work in progress, it has holes and it is to be continued
Being a Hero
Life with the Haven Team was simple: fight bad guys, keep villains in check, keep your identity secret, and above all don't cause a scene. When a superpowered assassin chases a target into the Haven's fair city, she heralds the beginning of something much worse than a simple murder case. My first go at an original story. Any similarities to people real or imagined are most likely pure coincidence. None of my friends inspired characters in this book. I have no idea what you're on about.Complete
How to Survive a Supervillain Attack
In a world of superheroes and supervillains, citizens are overlooked and ignored. Damage to their selves or property is seen as secondary compared to the lives that the heroes lead. And the people who suffer the most are the ones no one talks about. In this world of extra normal people, it is a rulebook by a normal person that brings hope back to the people. Ruby Davis (as she is known at work) has made it her year-long mission to help people avoid the dangers of supervillains (without putting herself in danger of course). The question is, how long can she keep it up without attracting attention to herself?Complete
The Phoenix Shift
Waking up in the middle of night to a thump... classic. Kayla panicked for a second, then calmed down and decided it was nothing, then began to drift back to sleep. Then someone crashed through her window and all her fears came back. In one fell swoop, Kayla was thrown out the fourth floor window - and survived without an injury... other than everything she thought she knew shattering around her. During what seems the average residential robbery, Kayla Hill discovers a whole new world thriving below the surface in her hometown of Alvard. Some people, including her, were born with the ability to shapeshift. She learns through the help of a few new friends, who are shifters like herself, just how much her world has changed. Kayla also faces a new threat: the Raiders, a covert group set upon bringing down the shifters and stealing their powers. After fleeing from her home to avoid them, she wonders how she and the other shifters could ever defeat the omnipresent Raiders... assuming she survives them.Complete
Billionaire Next Door✔
I shrunk back into my seat as his head snapped towards me. He looked like his head was going to fall off. His eyes were blazing with rage. His face was set into an icy glare. His fists that rested on the table were clenched so hard his knuckles were white. As he stood from his chair so did I. I felt like the prey to the biggest predator in the jungle. I took two steps back for every stride he took towards me. I gulped again before shaking me head. "She's just joking Ace." my voice quivered as I took another two steps back. "How do I know that?" he sneered down at me, his body towering over me. As I went to take another step backwards, my back made contact with the wall behind me. Well great. Now I'm cornered.
