Scarlett Vance is the definition of high fashion. Flawless. Icy. Obsessed with everything luxurious. But what happens when a cursed antique hairpin traps her in her own body with a dead 1950s gangster?
Meet Frankie "The Iron Fist" Rossi. He is tough, street smart, and extremely confused... mostly because he cannot stand modern thong underwear. Every time Scarlett gets stressed or smells something too strong... BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!!! Her heart rate spikes. Frankie takes over. Suddenly the world's most glamorous designer is wobbling on six-inch stilettos like a drunk tarantula. He flips tables. He threatens to tear buildings apart. And he adjusts his underwear very loudly in front of everyone.
Can her reputation survive when she looks like a supermodel but acts like a grumpy old mobster?
Enter Julian Valerius. He is the most feared CEO in the city... until Scarlett walks in. Then he turns into a clumsy, stuttering mess. Add Tiffany... the loud billionaire heiress who looks exactly like Frankie's dead wife. And Hunter... the arrogant rich kid who thinks dating is a business deal. What could possibly go wrong?
From fancy galas to chaotic amusement parks, this is the hilarious story of a fashion icon, a ghost with anger issues, and one very stressed billionaire. Can they hide the madness before the whole city finds out?

Candlemaiden: The Stranger Shore
Evil spirits. A cursed prince. Death itself in disarray. Iris just wants to go home, but fate has other plans for this young priestess and her odd companions. /// The land of Erinlin is dying, its ancient traditions choked out by the Kaerent church and its true priestesses, the Candlemaidens, increasingly regarded with fear and suspicion. All Iris wants is to tend her candles, win her shade battles, and chat with the spirits of her realm. But when she is torn away from her home by the Kaerent king, she learns that her country needs her to be far more than a typical Candlemaiden-- she must be as the legendary priestesses of old and walk through Death itself. *** Cover help from the awesome @ArdenBrooks.

It's been six months since the whole Haydn incident. Darkness and Light are back where they belong- wherever that is- and things are starting to return back to what is considered seemingly normal.

As usual, Millie seems to find herself more involved than she originally thought, and it's up to her and the team to stop this dark force from spreading. Will she be able to overcome betrayal and the barriers in her mind to stand up against the enemy again? Or will she give in to the doubt clouding her thoughts?

Altered
'They wore uniform grey, their expression hard and distant, their muscles taut with expectation, as if at any moment they were ready to lead an assault, to carry out orders, to kill, to die. And yet they were. Kingston had trained these children to kill at a word, to obey their masters without question. They were machines, the ultimate weapons in modern warfare. Children, as young as seven and as old as eighteen, stood impeccable and fearless, but it was what was hidden in their minds that was to be feared most of all.' Nineteen-year-old Charlotte Owens has entered her final year at Kingston Academy and, together with her best friends, she plans on making it through the year in one piece, away from the scrutinising eye of the headmaster and the founder's son. However, when she discovers that she has been thrust into the role of Head Girl, working alongside a boy she can hardly stand, not only are her plans for anonymity destroyed, but her plans for making it through the year at all seem to be in danger of becoming a wistful dream. Charlotte finds herself faced with the monstrous task of learning to play a game for survival in a world that seems determined to destroy her. Not only fighting for her life, Charlotte must also fight to gain control over the genetic alterations that plague her mind, in an effort to become the soldier she must be. A dark and tense tale of the battle between good and evil, Altered brings to life a strange and deadly world full of power and intrigue, as well as casting light on many secrets that so many hoped would remain undiscovered.
