What begins as a playful challenge soon turns sinister after the app's adaptive AI, Polly, integrates with his smart home. As the inexplicable injuries and accidents pile up, Wes begins to question his sanity. Is he just imagining things, or is Polly manipulating him in a twisted attempt to master a new language at any cost?

He thinks it's gross to eat people too. But he also thinks it's gross to eat pigeons and rats, so there's that. And now that they've found each other in the wasteland, Levon's plan is to carry Eve with him across the country to the army shelter in New York that totally exists and will save them both. Eve's plan is to keep her eyes from rolling into her skull every time Levon opens his mouth.Complete

After catching her boyfriend cheating on her and almost murdering him, her boss sends her to a new country to keep surveillance on a young man. How hard could watching someone and staying under the radar be? Extremely hard in fact. After losing her client on her first night on the job, everything takes a turn for the worst. Nothing's ever straight forward when time bleeds the truth, spewing secrets and pasts as they come creeping around the corner, hitting her harder than ever. Although her new partner seems cool though, "You realise that I don't need you, right?" His eyes were cold, his face scornful. "I could always leave you here, and take your share too." He reached over, straightening the shirt around my neck little too enthusiastic with his tugging and fixing. "Either way, I'm going to get what I came here for. With or without you." Or maybe not. Amber learns what it means to lose control and lose it well to man she knows nothing about. But it's okay though - if only it were so simple.Complete
