"This is what happens when you play with fire, Sage." 
Sage takes the test, expecting to fail, to go back to normal. But she passes. And in a world where passing means being ripped from your home, and adopted by a stranger that hates you, passing is awful. So Sage ventures away with her friend Anastasia into the sun. There, she discovers terrible secrets about how the adoptions started, why the poor became poor, and how the rich became rich. When her world starts to fall apart and her family starts to bleed, she has to rise up or face the consequences.

Antonio Romano is the don of the Italian Mafia, with his four sons, he is known as a cold and ruthless soul. Their whole lives changed fifteen years ago when his little princess was taken away from his family. Searching for many years, he still hasn't found her, but he never gives up. Lorenzo Russo was cold towards others but completely different towards the Romano men. They brought him and his brother into their family with open arms. He remembers the small girl that was taken away from them fifteen years ago. He swore he would never stop looking for his angel. What happens when a young woman is brought into the Romano men's home? Will Amara ever be fixed again? Teaser: "Is that..." I couldn't even finish my question, I was beyond nervous as to what the results will say. Antonio nodded and lifted his gaze up to me, I could see the worry swimming around his irises. "Yes, it is bambina" He reached for my hand and I gladly gave it to him, he squeezed it and held it tight in his own and lowered his gaze once again to the envelope. "Are you going to open it, dad?" Sandro asked him. You could tell he was getting impatient, in fact, looking around the room, everyone seemed to be getting impatient. I looked back at the envelope and then at Antonio, and gave his hand a reassuring squeeze of my own. **FAST-PACED** **Re-writing this book**

your heart is a hurricane by splendidlyximperfect

Sting's entire life changed when he was eleven years old and his best friend Rogue told a secret that he'd promised to keep. Taken away from the father who abused him and the best friend who'd tried to save him, Sting tried to start a new life with his uncle. But the trauma wasn't easy to escape, and eventually Sting turned to drinking to forget the things that hurt. Now he's an adult, and he hasn't been sober in years. But when drinking nearly kills him and a near-stranger saves his life, Sting has a chance to turn his life around, and maybe become the man that Rogue deserves to love. Note: This is a companion piece to "how to become a wildfire" and it also deals with the topic of abuse. However, this work is focused more on the aftermath of being abused as a child, and features a lot of bad coping skills, including alcoholism. Written for Nonbinary Month 2019 CW for child abuse, PTSD, alcoholism, self-harm and suicidal thoughts. Trigger warnings will be posted on individual chapters if necessary.

Your decisions will come back to haunt you, whether it be mentally, physically, or literally. In their case, it's all three. Sage's relatively normal life is flipped on its side once there is irrefutable evidence that he has murdered a member of his friend group- except it wasn't him. He's possessed. Possessed by a long dead reptilian humanoid, who has sworn to kill off the human race as a form of revenge- but revenge for what? Now, he and his friends are on the clock to get rid of this killer blast from the past before they're all killed by its vengeful claws (and tentacles).
