Veronica is a messenger in a war-torn version of American where fields are torn apart by trenches and families are torn apart by overseas battles. When she travels from the depot to Meemaw's to deliver some parts necessary for the repair of a tank, she unknowingly brings something dark and sinister with her. 

In this short-story retelling of Little Red Riding Hood, inspired by dieselpunk themes, werewolf folklore, and WWII propaganda, Veronica must vanquish the wolf herself. 

(Please be warned: while I cut out my usual cursing, this story features a fight scene in the middle.)

Henley agrees to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for a fee, falling in love as she wonders - how is he involved in her brother's false conviction? ****** Henley Linden's brother is in jail for a crime he didn't commit, and she'll take any job to raise the money needed to free him. Soon, she's agreed to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for ten thousand dollars, so his mother will ease up the pressure on him to find a wife. But once Henley is enmeshed in Bennett's world, he falls for her, and she starts to have feelings for him as well. Despite her romance with Bennett, as she grows closer to the Calloways, Henley realizes they are somehow involved in her brother's conviction. Journeying deeper into a world of wealth and conspiracies, Henley is forced to rely on Bennett, though doing so could cost her everything. [[word count: 200,000-250,000 words]]
