"What good is showing I care going to do me, Ethan?" James hissed. "If I care, then I am weak. Don't you get that? I am a machine. I am a soldier. I cannot miss her. I cannot ask where she is gone. I cannot care that she is not here anymore, because caring will get me killed".
As James tries to come to terms with life a Kingston without the girl he loves, Charlotte finds herself thrown into the real world, far from everybody and everything she knows, a place she is meant to be safe. However, with the headmaster's vengeful sights set upon tracking her down, and the greedy desires of the patrons still haunting her every step, any plans for a safe life begin to unravel rapidly. As Charlotte begins to understand just how dangerous the world she has grown up in can truly be, she is forced to push her genetic alterations to their limit to protect herself and those she loves; and in the midst of it all she is forced to choose between her past with James, a past that could cost her, her life, and a future with Matt that would mean turning her back on her friends, still struggling to survive at Kingston Academy.
The second book in the Altered series, Hunted brings the dark and twisted world of Kingston to life once more, as well as the far-reaching ghosts of its industry, the seedy underworld of human trade and the true weight having altered powers carries for the altered students.

Millicent
"I am strong, I am fierce, I am untouchable." Freed from an institute on Vinco Island, Millicent has had her fair share of the supernatural world. She made a vow to herself to leave her old life behind, along with the dark memories of her past, only looking ahead, deciding to make a life of her own among the humans. When a young aeteri enters her life, he changes the natural course of time, changing her fate forever, throwing her right into the path of her mate. Sterling is the alpha of the Lock Heart Pack. He is guided to where he is told he'll find his mate and when he does, she isn't anything he'd thought she would be. She is distant, cold, and unwilling to open up to him about her life, determined to leave everything, including him, behind. His devotion to her stands firm though, and he is more motivated than ever to break her walls of ice, no matter how long it takes. Millicent wants something more for her life, she doesn't want her future to be set in stone, she doesn't want the life that Sterling is willing to give her. What she wants though, is something she isn't yet sure of, though it's just out of her grasp, unattainable, unreachable, untouchable. When she learns her future isn't at all what she thinks, nor her past, will she be willing to accept the path laid before her along with her new life with her mate, or will her stubborness get in the way of all she has ever wanted? And what she wants. . . well, it's something that even she still needs to figure out. ********** An Aeterian Story- Fourth Book Book Order: 1. The Alpha's Eversor 2. Athena 3. Titania 4.

Primed: A Kayla Madison Story
Kayla Madison is a normal-ish sixteen-year old whose main desire is simple-make it through high school without embarrassing herself too much in the process. It doesn't help that she's being followed by dark figures no one else sees. When a man with incredible speed, unbelievable power, strange old-fashion clothes, and an obnoxious personality threatens her life, she discovers she is a rare "two-worlder" -a person with one parent from Earth and the other from Earth Prime. She escapes another attack by jumping through a portal to the alternate dimension, much to the chagrin of her protector. As if managing without electricity, cars, and phones on the more Edwardian world weren't enough stress; she finally meets her long-absent father, a scientist in the top-secret field of Trans-Dimensional Travel. Things get more complicated when she realizes her best friend's father, or rather the Earth Prime version of him, might have been the person that orchestrated the assaults. ___ Thanks for reading! I've been working on this story for quite a while and have drafts for a five book series. I would love feedback on what I can do to make it a stronger story. If there are things you enjoy, let me know (so I don't change those parts.) :) All portions of the story have been submitted and final chapters will visible by Nov 18, 2023. Among other degrees, I have my MFA in creative writing. I am a science teacher when I am not writing.Complete
