Late Summer Rain
It was pity that first made Dannie speak to him. She had known Ryan since she was a kid, but he had always been the popular Golden Boy, and she had always been the tomboy that didn’t mind not having any friends. It was odd, she had thought, that all the popular kids who had once kissed the ground he walked on, didn’t so much spared him a glance anymore, and it was this that made her sit with him that one faithful day and begin something that would only end up causing her pain.Complete
Not My Specialty
Lena Harris doesn't do messy. She deals in information and observations, small gaps and mistakes that can be leveraged to make problems go away.

Until her boss assigns her to the messiest operation she's ever faced. Now her carefully built up professional distance is collapsing around her, and she doesn't know how to hold it up- or if she even wants to anymore. __________ Open Novella Contest (ONC2026), prompt 33: It doesn't take long before everything in your life spins out of control. One moment you're a secret assassin, and the next you've somehow been hired as a nanny and you're not entirely sure how it happened.Complete
The Budding Roses
***Jan 2016 - The Budding Roses has been selected as one of the TOP 10 ONE DIRECTION FANFICTIONS worth reading by Sugarscape! http://www.sugarscape.com/bookclub/news/a1085541/10-one-direction-fanfics-worth-reading-january/ *** Currently appearing on the Wattpad Fan fiction Featured List and selected for Wattpad's 'Back to school YA' Reading List. Set amidst a chaos of hilarity in 1990's Brighouse, West Yorkshire, The Budding Roses is a classic Young Adult coming of age novel which follows the anxious voice of teenager, Simone Rose, and her descent in to panic, as she struggles to cope with the all-consuming occupation of lusting after boys and the emotional exhaustion of never being able to find the right one. As Baywatch plays on the television Simone has just vomited for the twelfth time, which as she has established has to be God's secret punishment for her recent transgression with the loathsome Harry Styles. At least she has Baywatch to maintain her spirits during illness, and it is from her sick bed that she falls in love for the first time with tanned, floppy haired Adonis, life guard Eddie Kramer. Powered back to health by her emerging amour, Simone soon realises that the coal blackened streets of Brighouse offer just as many hotties as the far flung beaches of Southern California. If only best friend, precocious know it all, Natasha could share her romantic sensibilities instead of chasing after Harry and his stupid football or worse still High School's newest hero, Liam Payne. Why can't such losers bog off and stop embarrassing her with their immaturities? Unfortunately for Simone, such luck is not to be hers.Complete
Under the Pale Sky
In the shadow of the Tsar, a Jewish woman's body is a battlefield and her silence is a slow death; in the Pale of Settlement, her mind is the only crime scene they cannot reach. In the sodden, gray streets of 1890s Chernigov/Chernihiv, the air tastes of coal smoke, damp earth, and state-sanctioned terror. For Aviva Osherov, the Pale is more than a border on a map-it is a chokehold. Caught in a double-bind of historical shadows, she survives by navigating a world where her intellect is viewed as a corruption of her faith and her very identity is a crime against the Russian Crown. In a land where the law is written in bruises and the sky is a pale witness to the slaughter, Aviva hides the sharp edges of her thoughts behind downcast eyes and heavy wool. But beyond the shtetl walls, the Empire is waking up, and it is hungry. The mud of the Ukraine frontier is thick with the scent of wood smoke and the cold, metallic promise of Cossack steel. When the Tsar's bugle cries out from the distant ridge, the fragile peace of her village shatters, leaving Aviva to face a reality where blood is cheap and sanctuary is a myth. As she is drawn into a dangerous world of secret knowledge and a forbidden connection with Nikolai-a man who represents the very power that seeks to destroy her-Aviva must learn that some cages are made of stone, and others are woven from the threads of history itself. [MATURE: A gritty, realistic exploration of life in the Russian Empire. Contains visceral depictions of state-sanctioned violence, anti-Semitic persecution, and the raw struggle for survival. Reader discretion is strongly advised.]
