Cassie Sheppards was always quiet and reserved, keeping to herself, talking only when needed to, hiding amongst her books instead of partying like every 16 year old her age.
She'd accepted she was the ‚weird loner' in her little Town of Woodwalk. She'd accepted that there was no one on her side she could trust, no one she could talk to when things got hard at home, no one she could know longer than a few seconds without scaring them off.
Except for her older sister, sarah.
So when she watches as sarah is dragged into a car on a gas Stations videocamera footage, she takes it upon herself, along with an unexpected friend, to find out who took her sister, and uncover the secrets of the town she thought she knew well.
But will she be able to accept it?
----------------------------
Bubbly, happy, alive. Sarah Sheppards was the socialite of the secluded family in Woodwalk. Popular and known by everyone, sarah couldn't be more happy.
Unless she thought of her little sister.
The only person she'd never truly known, or could connect with. No matter how much she made sure people didn't bully Cassie, no matter how many times she panicked hearing from her mother Cassie ran away again.
It was the only person she cared for, yet couldn't crack.
So when she's pulled away from her normal life and locked into a dark room, unable to escape, her only thoughts are how to get out and protect Cassie.
But will she ever get out?

Fault Line [Completed]
In the first installment of the Fault Line Trilogy, Jane Carter wanted nothing more than for her two sisters to grow up safe. But when her father doesn't return home one day, her entire life is way out of proportions. Her mother began to abuse her, and threatened the safety of Jane's sisters. After years of suffering to keep her sisters healthy, Jane acts out and murders her mother. Now Jane begins her life of being a runaway criminal. She now realizes the consequences of what she has done and is forced to leave her sisters at her aunt's house alone. Though Jane's mother pushed her to the edge of the line and further, the fifteen year old still feels as if it's her fault. Running away from her terrible deed, she learns of betrayal, death, forgiveness, and what it takes to survive in the criminal world. She'll meet the one who'll save her, a foe from the past, and even face the death of herself. With her mother's death haunting her every move, Jane's whole world is falling apart, and she can't do anything except run. As one had said: "The guilty shall rest under pain of death;" will that also mean Jane? Or will she have to suffer the deaths of her loved ones . . . alone? Jane doesn't know who to trust and whether she was pushed past her fault line.

| Happy Lowman x OC - COMPLETED | Sunshine. That's how they, her family and friends, called Cassie Connor most of the time. With her brunette hair, the ocean blue eyes and a smile that was wide but never reached her eyes she was one of the prettiest in the small town she lived in. Tacoma wasn't so big and lots of people knew each other. Many loved her for her kindness, others envied her. However, Cassie never understood how anyone could envy her. A life where her father was gone and a mother who never cared much about her children, a big brother who had barely time and a little brother who was out of control, was anything but easy. On top of that she recently lost her job as a nurse and slipped back into her party phase. Wake and bake became her new motto. Her heavy cannabis use not only worried her brother but also his best friend, Happy Lowman. The heavily tattooed biker was part of SAMCRO since years, yet he made sure to visit every few months⸺ especially since he still shared an apartment in town with Cassie. They always had been close and had that type of friendship everyone wanted. That was until he left town to start a new life in Charming, leaving her with an emptiness no one else could fill, yet she understood why he had to leave. When Happy visited Tacoma again after a long time, he quickly realized that Cassie was just as close to the abyss as her younger brother, whom he had picked up in California and brought with him.

Bionic Chaos [Leo Dooley]
Maggie Carver had always wanted to be an actress. It was her life's dream to end up on the big screen and walk the red carpets and get all of the awards that she knew she deserved. She would do anything to get there. Anything. Working at Tech Town, though, was not part of her plan on taking Hollywood by storm. The days were long and boring; the customers were loud and rude; her coworkers were annoying and strange. Even stranger still was the brother-sister duo that began working there. Right off the bat, Maggie knew that they were keeping some sort of secret. She just didn't know what it was; she desperately wanted to know. Maggie hadn't expected she would find out so soon, though. While closing up Tech Town one night, she witnessed Chase and Bree Davenport using . . . bionics? She had only seen that in movies, not in real life. It was right there in front of her, and she had no choice but to believe what she had seen. She brought it upon herself that other people deserved to know about the freaks living among them. Forming a plan, Maggie wanted to get enough evidence to show to the world. The thing was, she had no idea how she was going to do that until she realized that the Bionic Siblings had a step brother who was not bionic. This was a great acting exercise for Maggie. She would fake her friendship with Leo Dooley to get closer to the Bionic Siblings. She never prepared for her fake feelings to become real. She never prepared for falling for Leo Dooley. And she never planned to break any hearts, either. That was the thing about following your dreams, though. Sometimes, you had to leave everything you loved in the past to create a better future. Maggie Carver learned that firsthand.Complete

I repeated, every bone in my body aching from this pain, this betrayal. What I'm doing, or going to do, is definitely some form of betrayal. But I don't have a choice, right? He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story.

Through Blood and Fire
Blair Evermore: a simple kid with a complicated life. With a brother that would do anything for her and two FBI agents for parents, she doesn't have the safest life. She was never the first to volunteer her parents for career day, and "bring your child to work" was a foreign concept. But she liked it that way. She didn't know any different. Blair was content with the way things were, because even though they were distant, she always knew her parents loved her. But all that changed on her nineth birthday. That's when she experienced the hardest year anyone could imagine. One month that felt like a lifetime. A week full of tears and sorrow. And one day that changed her life forever. October 27th, the day her parents died. Killed during a last-minute undercover job, Amanda and Bryan Evermore were prepared for the inevitable. That didn't make it any easier for their children though. Grayson and Blair's whole world turned upside down. Neither of them knew what to do, but they coped the best they could. Now, seven years later, Grayson is missing. Without any leads or witnesses, the FBI is having trouble finding him. That was until Blair got involved. With a letter from her parent's murderers, another from Grayson's potential kidnappers, and a whole lot of will power, she leads her new-found FBI buddies through riddles, secrets, and puzzles, gathering as much information as they can to get justice for her family. She knew exactly what she was going to do once they found the people who destroyed her all those years ago. She would make them pay. But sometimes what we plan doesn't always work out quite right. ************************* Started:1/1/2023 Finished: 9/26/2024 © 2023 Taylor Sassone Cover by my amazing sister @owlhootsburger13Complete
