Down By the River by kwexell82304

Gatherer of Stalks of Barley is from the Tribe of Soft Birds Singing. Tail of a Slender Minnow is from the Tribe of Rushing Water. Barley never believed that he'd love anybody besides one of the pale girls of his tribe with vibrant white hair like him and eyes like sapphires. Minnow never believed that she'd love anybody besides one of the people in her forest with hair like the dark of night and olive skin. Yet they saw each other one day, down at the river, and nothing was ever the same. This is a novella/short story broken up into 25 chapters and an epilogue. The approximate word count is 10,000. I will work on a cover and on publishing the different parts shortly. I just believe that it's funny the things that you can write in class when you're bored in high school.

An Intimate Deception by cjbirch

Flynn County Sheriff Elle Ashley has spent her adult life atoning for her wild youth, but when she finds her ex, Jessie murdered two weeks before the small town's biggest social event, she comes face to face with her past and all her well-kept secrets. Not only is this her first murder investigation, it's the town's first in over fifty years. Elle must find a killer before there are any more casualties and keep her troubled little brother off the suspect list, all under the watchful eyes of a Chicago reporter. Investigative reporter Robin Oakes isn't a small-town kind of girl, and she's determined to get in and out of Flynn County as fast as possible. One look at Sheriff Ashley has her rethinking her plans. As pressure mounts to solve Jessie's murder, Elle gets help from the most unlikely source--Robin, who appears to be more interested in her than getting the story.

Somewhere By the Lake: An Emerald Cove Novel by ymoreland07

A weekend escape becomes a nightmare when dark secrets rise to the surface. When sisters Destiny and Hope return to their family's remote cabin by Emerald Cove, they expect a quiet retreat with friends. But the still waters hide something sinister. At dawn, a scream shatters the morning silence-and a body is discovered near the shore. What began as a reunion quickly unravels into terror. As fear spreads through the cabin, suspicion and paranoia take hold. The sisters are forced to confront not only the horror outside but also the fractures within their family bond. Destiny struggles with unsettling blackouts and memories she cannot fully piece together, while Hope fears the past they thought was buried may be clawing its way back. The closer they come to the truth, the more dangerous their world becomes. Someone among them is not who they seem. And the lake, silent and watchful, may hold the key to everything. Somewhere By the Lake is a taut psychological thriller about family, betrayal, and the darkness that lives beneath still waters. When the final secret surfaces, nothing-and no one-will ever be the same.
