Jessi Albright needs a vacation. With few clients for her life makeover business, it's hard to justify getting away, even for a weekend. But when she finally gets away to a much-needed retreat in Saltport, her vacation is undermined by a misplaced credit card. Desperate for some cash, she makes an emergency stop at the local ATM. It was supposed to be a short detour, five minutes max.

She got far more than she swiped her bank card for. Prince Tewen, a merman, kidnaps her and the $70 million dollars the ATM mysteriously gave her. The only way out is for Jessi to transform the prince into a human in twenty-four hours and get him into a gala in thirty-six. Even if such a makeover is feasible, it's certain to cost a fortune, a $70 million dollar fortune.

From yachts to New York to sea urchin extract, this part-comedy part-absurd tail is sure to **make you question your life choices as much as Jessi.

|Book One of The Soul-Bound Chronicles| Classic J-RPG and anime elements collide with the Young Adult fiction writing style in this modern fantasy book following Josh Davidson, a teenage boy whose life flips upside down when he becomes soul-bound to a dragon ✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧ Magic, heroes, dragons. Josh Davidson has seen it all-in video games and movies, of course, because they would never be anything but fiction. Yet his dreams are slipping into reality, he is experiencing sudden energy surges, and a persistent voice is taking residency in his head. All of the insanity explodes when his bully goes on a murderous rampage, and the only one who can stop him is a beautiful girl wielding a bow and shooting magical ice arrows. The experience leads Josh to the truth: he's a Paladin, someone soul-bound to a dragon. Not only does he now have a dragon reaching into his thoughts, but the new status comes with magical powers meant to help him in his fight against the forces of darkness. Josh is more than eager to hone his new skills and help the Paladins in their fight, but the darkness they face is rising from its slumber, intent on destroying the Paladins and everything they stand for. Josh will have to learn fast, because the most important decisions are those he cannot escape. Decisions that risk not only the war which the Paladins fight, but the very people he holds dear. ➒ Word Count: 130,000 - 135,000 ➒ Amazing cover made by Dayisdemigod ➒ Featured in Fantasy account's Young Adult Fantasy Reading List ➒ Featured in YASciFantasy account's Quests & Queens - Fantasy Adventure Reading List ➒ The Fiction Awards 2019 Best Fantasy Winner ➒ Editor's Pick Featured January 2021

"I'm here now. I'm here to patch you back up until you're good as new. And love you until you forget what that hurt feels like." For a long time, Jade Thirlwall had been plagued by the trauma of her childhood. Which led her into even more trauma in her adult life. She had been used and abused her entire life. Ever since she was old enough to remember, everyone who was supposed to love and care for her, abused her in every way imaginable, and treated her like dirt. Her past completely altered her view of what love actually was and what it was supposed to look like. Leaving her broken, emotionally scared and insecure. She'd been hurt to the point where she stopped believing in love altogether, and was dangerously close to the edge, ready to fall. That was until one faithful night, while trying to jump ship on her past, she dived right into the deep blue eyes that would become her future. Seemingly, love finally found her. But can she allow herself to receive it, or is she already too far gone? Follow Jerrie as they navigate the ups and downs and ins and outs of love and life, while trying desperately to protect one another and what they have from threat after threat. With people poking holes at them left and right, will our favorite ship be able to stay afloat, or will it sink under the pressure? Read on to find out. ------ FYI ‼️ There's tons of fluff, πŸ₯° Tons of smut, πŸ₯΅ Danger around every corner, 😱 & most importantly there's Jerrie ❀️🀞🏾 ------ Book 1️⃣ of 2️⃣ [Check out Dreams and Nightmares] ------ 🚨Trigger Warning🚨 Not a ton, but there is some violence, physical abuse, mention of sexual abuse, and occasional mention of self-harm.
