The city she lived in wasn't kind and the building at the center of it all, Hale, teemed with secrets Cory was desperate to know. She didn't believe her parents were dead. They were out there somewhere, and all signs pointed to the colossal structure looming over the citizens of the city. In the year 2080, a lot is possible. Deceased civilians' memories are extracted in Hale. For the greater good, everyone says. And everyone believes. But when Cory stumbles upon a group of thieves, she has no choice but to set off on a journey with them to discover what is going on and where her parents are.

The Visionary Patriot: The Angel Among Shadows
Charlotte Briarwood is not human. Created by forces older than memory-the Ancient Sun God and the enigmatic Fool-she began life untouched by compassion, unaware of the fragile beauty of humanity. That changed at a London orphanage, where a brave, protective boy guided her through vulnerability, and a clever, curious child taught her the rhythms and quirks of human life. Through them, she first glimpsed empathy, curiosity, and the strange pull of human connection. Now, a renowned psychiatrist, Charlotte heals minds with uncanny skill, balancing the humanity she has learned against the immortal, angelic being she truly is. But when a noble patient dies under suspicious circumstances-a death disguised as suicide-Charlotte is drawn into a web of secrets, family intrigue, and shadowed power. In a city of fog and hidden truths, she must navigate murder, manipulation, and morality, guided by the anchors of her past. Every choice challenges her identity, her morality, and her understanding of what it truly means to be human. In the end, the greatest mystery she must solve is the one within herself.
Fairy Crosses
Entry for the Open Novella Contest, 2024 Prompt #36: "Fairy tales are real," and there couldn't be anything worse. After the death of her husband, Charlotte seeks a fresh start in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia. She wants to do two things: work her mundane job and spend the evenings at her cabin talking to her husband's ghost. All her hopes and dreams stayed behind in Atlanta. Now, she just wants a quiet place to live alone. Right when she settles into mountain life, she finds a quarter-sized stone outside her door with a black cross etched in its center. She brings it to a library where she learns about the fairies that left it there for her. Her research leads her to an ancient Cherokee hunting trail where winged, fairy-like creatures dance among blue ghost fireflies and sleep in the branches of oak trees centuries old. Charlotte is sure that her discovery is nothing more than a vivid dream. But as her obsession with Appalachian fairy tales grows, she only finds more fairy crosses outside her door, along with startling evidence that the Faye still roam the ancient mountain valleys. This is a story about magic and age-old legends, but even more about how obsession can offer relief from difficult circumstances, although at the price of true healing.

I Knew You
When the death of Sienna Ross' mysterious uncle leads her to a small town in Washington she quickly learns everything is not as it seems. And when Sienna locks eyes with Alpha Kaden Marsak, notoriously labeled bad news, she knows nothing will ever be the same. . . . Before James or Celie could bicker anymore the bell on the door rung again. This time I was fully aware. I knew the man that walked through the door, his black hair pushed back, white shirt spread over the length of his chest bulk with muscle. I'd met him once in another life, taller than Celie, and even James, stubble littering his jawline and upper lip. I knew him instantly, although I'd never met him- I knew him. He was perfect in every definition of the word and instantly I felt the need to rise from my chair and jump carelessly into his arms like a child. His eyes found mine instantly- familiar eyes dark like midnight surrounded by skin like sand- rough and fighting to stay youthful. He took a staggering step, never dropping his eyes from mine and for a moment he was still like a lion in hunt, not even his chest moved to take a breath. And then like a lion he inhaled sharply and abruptly crossed the floor in a few short strides. Our eyes never moved from each other. "Kaden-" James began as he fearfully followed Kadens glace to me, "She's not a rogue, shes-" He cut him off with a word spoken softly and from deep within his throat, "Mate."
The Egg
In the heart of the desert, a forgotten antenna begins to vibrate. No one else hears it. Except her. An echo repeats through frequencies that shouldn't exist. It doesn't carry voices. It doesn't carry data. It carries something older than any language. And it's growing. On the other side of the world, someone takes note. And someone else... prepares a response. A conspiratorial science fiction novel filled with mystery, impossible signals, and a truth not everyone is ready to face. It begins with a sound. It ends with a choice.
