For Valarie Williams, Los Angeles was a cage, an exciting and lively cage; but nonetheless, a cage. As the daughter of Hollywood's most iconic power couple, her life was a series of staged smiles and paparazzi-dodging. Not many people knew what happened behind closed doors, and she liked to keep it that way. The move to a secluded New Hampshire farmhouse was supposed to be a reset; a chance to trade the smog of the 405 for woodsmoke and a chance to rebuild what Hollywood had broken. But the country isn't as quiet as she expected. Enter Dean Blackmore, the rugged rancher hired to remodel the property. To him, Valarie is just another spoiled transplant with an attitude; to her, he's become an intruder into her chaotic life. Armed with a rough exterior and a refusal to let anyone past her defenses, Valarie treats the remodel like a battlefield. But as the walls come down, so do hers. Amidst a treacherous and tumultuous romance, Valarie must also decide if she wants to follow her dreams of classrooms and rough drafts or continue a life in the spotlight as her parents have wished for her.

Aeternum

"Eternity means nothing to me if it means that I have to carry the guilt of destroying you." ----------------- Wylie Moore, a Reaper who clings to morality in the absence of life, has made a fatal choice. She's abandoned her oath, and neglected to collect a soul when its fated time came. When an unlikely ally joins her side-Finn Halstead, her silent sworn rival-a timeline is severed, and a soul spared. But the afterlife isn't what it seems, and their act of generosity is deemed a crime, pitting them against the commanding powers themselves for judgement. With a guilty verdict on their hands, it is decided that the two of them will be punished in the worst way possible for a Reaper: Resurrection. Thrust into the rural hometown Wylie grew up in, with her murderer still running free and her memory of her death severed, the two Reapers must navigate a twisting world of lies, ominous shadows with pointed teeth, a forced friendship, and their own growing feelings for one another. But Wylie's murderer remembers. They want her dead again-for good this time-and will stop at nothing to see it come to fruition, even if it costs the lives of others. A Reaper's greatest temptation is revenge. To succumb is to be destroyed. To Refuse is to suffer. Wylie will do anything to get back at her killer. Finn will do anything to atone for past mistakes. Even if it means destroying what he was sent to protect.
