Through Blood and Fire
Blair Evermore: a simple kid with a complicated life. With a brother that would do anything for her and two FBI agents for parents, she doesn't have the safest life. She was never the first to volunteer her parents for career day, and "bring your child to work" was a foreign concept. But she liked it that way. She didn't know any different. Blair was content with the way things were, because even though they were distant, she always knew her parents loved her. But all that changed on her nineth birthday. That's when she experienced the hardest year anyone could imagine. One month that felt like a lifetime. A week full of tears and sorrow. And one day that changed her life forever. October 27th, the day her parents died. Killed during a last-minute undercover job, Amanda and Bryan Evermore were prepared for the inevitable. That didn't make it any easier for their children though. Grayson and Blair's whole world turned upside down. Neither of them knew what to do, but they coped the best they could. Now, seven years later, Grayson is missing. Without any leads or witnesses, the FBI is having trouble finding him. That was until Blair got involved. With a letter from her parent's murderers, another from Grayson's potential kidnappers, and a whole lot of will power, she leads her new-found FBI buddies through riddles, secrets, and puzzles, gathering as much information as they can to get justice for her family. She knew exactly what she was going to do once they found the people who destroyed her all those years ago. She would make them pay. But sometimes what we plan doesn't always work out quite right. ************************* Started:1/1/2023 Finished: 9/26/2024 © 2023 Taylor Sassone Cover by my amazing sister @owlhootsburger13Complete

Rewind: The Third Son
NOTICE: The full version of this book was unpublished from this platform on January 22, 2026. Only the first three chapters remained available as a preview/sample. The law hates him. Criminals fear him. Someone wants to be him. Three-quarters of humanity have evolved into superpowered beings bound by a genetic killing barrier. They are the Dominants-incapable of murder. The rest are Recessives: ordinary, unprotected, and fully capable of killing. Gabriel is one of them. Fresh out of prison after serving seven years for murder, all Gabriel wants is to go home, reunite with his family, and leave violence behind. But when a serial killer begins terrorizing the city, his own sister calls him a psycho, and a stalker known only as R escalates their twisted game from the shadows, Gabriel realizes something far worse than being hunted: Someone wants him to keep killing. Forced back into the role everyone despises - a killer - Gabriel must decide whether to abandon the one skill he was born for or embrace it on his own terms. As he tries to rebuild his life among the capital's elite - college halls, glittering social circles, heirs of power - he's drawn to a woman who hides more than she reveals, and to a truth more dangerous than any crime: Monsters don't always look like criminals. And criminals don't always look like monsters. As the line between justice and cruelty blurs, Gabriel faces a choice he can't escape: Cling to his humanity and be destroyed by the monsters around him - or fight back and become one himself. A man branded a killer, trying desperately to live. He survived juvie. He survived prison. Living might be harder. A story about power, guilt, and the fragile connections that hold a broken man together - or tear him apart.Complete
Darkness to surround us both
'When you inherit a name like mine-Holy Day (yes, Holy with one 'L')-innocence isn't just lost; it's discarded. You grow thick skin, thicker defiance, and develop zero tolerance for judgment.' Holy Day isn't addicted to substances that poison the body; her vices are far more dangerous. Her cravings corrode the mind, distort reality, and leave emotional ruin in their wake. Her addiction is desire-a seductive curse-and the only thrill that keeps her nightmares at bay. As a favour to her only friend, Alex Robbinson, Holy reluctantly agrees to see a psychologist to discuss her so-called "problems." Society may see her lifestyle as a descent into madness, but Holy enjoys it, finding pleasure in the trauma that has shaped her. She embraces her scars like trophies. Therapy is just another game, and she loves bitter truths like her morning coffee-black and sharp. While Holy dutifully attends her therapy sessions and confronts her past, Alex, a detective teetering on obsession, faces a storm of violence in the present: a murderer is wreaking havoc in town and the victims are all women. As the body count rises, his concern for Holy's proclivities grow, distracting him from the case. The final dance between predator and prey begins, secrets unravel, and obsession leads to betrayal. Can Alex catch the killer before Holy becomes his next tragic case? Or will her darkness consume them both?
Firebomb (The Jewel Project #2)
"Why is it always 'why' with you? Grow up already! Not all people are alike. You're good, I'm evil, you're naïve, I know how things are, and you're an idiot while I'm brilliant." With the jungle and Snitch Gravel left behind, Sam Grant thought the crazier part of life was over and he could now focus on his secret agent training and getting to know his new brothers. Before he can even get used to safety and comfort, everything goes downhill: his father goes ballistic, his cousin disappears and him and his brothers are called in to rescue a fellow agent from Snitch Gravel's base. Aside from sending them to battle countless henchmen, the Agency is also keen to keep them in the dark about their most important project - a project Sam and his brothers play a vital part in. Once again on the road, Sam must figure out how to do something he's never done before: infiltrate Snitch Gravel's base stealthily and come out unscathed. *** The story is completed. Sequel to Too Young Even if it's the second book in a series, the story is pretty stand-alone-ish. There are many characters, but it's easy to get the gist of them.
