"Time is an interesting thing. How souls so eternally different can be bound to one another in the most unexpected of ways."
Sun Scale, Defender of Earth, Soldier-In-Training to His Majesty the Queen, feels as though he has lived a pretty average life so far. He has a loving family, the greatest friends in the world, and a true can-do attitude. What more could he possibly ask for?
Okay, so maybe the madman who cursed them a thousand years into the past deserves a good beating, but, hey, that's for another time right?
Another time indeed, for soon he will discover a terrible truth. For all of his power and influence, the darkness inside each of his teammates continues to grow and if it is not stopped, it might literally be the end of the world. And in order to stop it, he will have to journey through the past, right the moments that went wrong, and somehow save the universe.
But nothing is ever as it seems, danger and betrayal lurk around every corner...
...and time is not on his side.

Back To You
Madison thought she had closed the door on Tayler forever. Two years ago, she walked away, leaving behind the only boy who ever truly knew her-the one who made her feel safe, seen... and ultimately, shattered. She swore she'd never look back. But now, fate has other plans. Thrown back into each other's lives, Madison tells herself she's over him. That what they had is nothing more than a distant memory. But Tayler? He makes forgetting impossible. He's still the same cocky, flirtatious guy who knows exactly how to push her buttons-and pull her back in. Every lingering glance, every teasing remark feels like a dangerous game, and she's not sure she knows the rules anymore. But between them stands more than just unfinished business. New love, tangled emotions, and the unshakable weight of what once was. Madison knows she should keep her distance, but when it comes to Tayler, that's always been easier said than done. "You still look at me the same way," she muttered, hating the way her voice wavered. Tayler smirked, stepping closer, his voice low and daring. "And you still get flustered when I do." She should leave. She should mean it this time. But what if their story was never meant to end-just to begin again?Complete

Areston thinks he can shield me from his past, but what he doesn't realize is I'm already part of it. The darkness that haunts him? It's the same one that's been chasing me for years.

I'm done being kept in the dark while he fights battles that belong to both of us. He's mine, and I'll burn the world down to keep him just like he would do for me. But our secrets are dangerous. Our demons are circling, and if we're not careful, they'll tear us apart from the inside. We've been through hell together, but this is different. This time, it's not about surviving-it's about whether we can trust each other enough to fight for what we have. He's the love of my life, the man I'm addicted to, but in the end, will our love be enough to save us from ourselves?
