She's here for something else. Or someone. But every time she pulls away, he pulls her back. Every kiss tastes like betrayal. Every touch could be her last. And when one of them is ordered to kill the other, they'll have to choose: Family. Or Fire.Complete

That is, until The House got involved. Echo had been letting her crew keep the money that they earned in the races instead of putting it into a pool for everyone to draw from. The House offered to give them larger sums of money for racing. Echo's crew abandoned her in favor of The House's money. Echo refused to be taken advantage of, and so she left, taking her most prized possession, something The House wanted and was willing to do anything to get their hands on. A 2017 Chevrolet Camaro with technology so advanced that The House wanted it for their plans. When Echo heard about Tyler Morgan and his crew's plight to take down The House, she hesitated, having already been burned by crews. Thus, Tyler and his crew were driven to show Echo that crews could be trusted. Echo's trust in Tyler's crew will be tested, and stories will be told that some people wanted kept hidden.

Gabriel & Athena, Book One: Fate (A Wattpad Featured Story)
FORMERLY TITLED "FATUM" Chosen as a Wattpad Featured Story in May 2017 There's a reason high school senior Athena Thorpe spends every available moment reading books: fiction is always so much better than the real world. Even the unexpected scandal she suffered thanks to Jackson Montgomery was just a blip in her typically mundane existence in Sparrow, North Carolina. But no story could ever compare to the life-altering events that occur when Gabriel Valente moves into town. Being the son of a notorious crime lord and having grown up on the streets of Manhattan, Gabriel defies all the expectations the students of Sparrow High have for him, including Athena's. She never expected he would match her interest in the written word, or his unlikely grand gestures and definitely not the immediate but intense feelings which cause them to spiral into a secret relationship. A relationship that hinders on Gabriel's uncertain future, which could find him being the heir to the mob throne. Whether or not she wants to admit it, Athena knows the world Gabriel comes from is a dark and violent one. It's just really easy to pretend it doesn't exist within the bubble that is Sparrow. Yet, no matter how much we pretend, reality is never far away, with Gabriel and Athena learning a tragic lesson about choice and consequence a little too late. When you finally decide what you want most in life, the next question becomes: will fate agree?Complete
