Yeah, that's me. Jack Lovejoy, private eye. Don't judge a book by its cover, just like you don't judge a detective by his name.
I've got an office downtown New York- the business is thriving here. Fortunate or unfortunate for me, you tell me.
People walk in, they give me a case, I take it or don't. It's pretty simple.
These are just a handful of the cases I've solved, all over the city.

The Hilariously Dark Life of Lana Lucky
Farrah Smart is an anxious yet highly intelligent detective that mostly sticks to navigating not only their work but also this dangerous and unpredictable life on their own. When they come across an interesting case involving a company of interest, they find it hard to turn it down. No matter the danger. Their curiosity just couldn't die down, even if they wanted it to. As they start their investigation, they get to know several different employees. Including a brightly dressed, somewhat creepy receptionist, one robotic assistant missing a few screws, an older man who couldn't be much more interesting than a door knob, and the boss who is known for her cold shoulder and tight grip around her employees. And once they get to know this seemingly random selection of individuals, they slowly start to create their general pool of suspects within their mystery. But as time goes on, their strange case starts to piece itself together. And we start to learn that everything's much more complicated than anything this detective has seen before. Still, it might take much convincing before Smart learns that not everything is as black and white as they once believed. And maybe not all monsters are easy to kill. Maybe some can look redeemable when their choices are their only way towards survival.
Wish's Desire
Everyone in Midas wants something from Wish. At Desire, the city's most exclusive pleasure club, that is simply part of the job. Beautiful, sharp-tongued and very good at making powerful people believe exactly what they want to believe, Wish has learned how to survive inside a world where nearly everything has a price-including him. What he wants is much simpler. Freedom. So when David Lopez, an ambitious executive from Micro Corps, offers Wish a way out in exchange for information whispered behind Desire's closed doors, Wish accepts. Stealing secrets from some of the most powerful people in Midas is dangerous, but danger is nothing new to him. Then one job goes catastrophically wrong. Experimental technology belonging to Project Prometheus escapes containment and embeds itself inside Wish's body. Suddenly, the man corporations barely noticed unless they wanted something from him has become something they are willing to kill for. Lucian Solstice wants what was stolen returned. Other players see an opportunity. And the people offering Wish protection may have their own ideas about what he is worth. As the technology inside him begins changing what his body can do, Wish is dragged deeper into a war between corporations, secrets and ambitions far larger than himself. Escaping Desire was supposed to mean finally owning his life. Instead, Wish is about to discover that freedom becomes much more complicated when everyone believes they own a piece of you. And if they refuse to let him go, he may have to become dangerous enough to make them. A/N: To everyone who already read the first version of Wish's Desire: I strongly recommend reading it again from the beginning, because this new version is far more than a simple edit. I have changed almost everything surrounding the pacing, character development, story details, background, atmosphere, and worldbuilding. I hope you enjoy discovering this new version of Wish's storyComplete
Curiosity Didn't Kill This Cat
