Caucasian. Blonde hair. Blue eyes. Are you the next victim?
After the death of her twin sister, Lacey Anderson takes it upon herself to find her killer. He has a pattern and she's determined to find him, no matter what the cost. Her life becomes more complicated when a soon-to-be police recruit, Logan Letterman, goes undercover as Jason Preston. His orders are to befriend Lacey and to find the killer who goes to Castle Rock High School. As they both conduct separate investigations, their personal opinions interfere with the raw facts, and their feelings toward each other make it near impossible to stay objective.
They're in a race against the clock to find him before he strikes again. Can you? Or will you be next?

Second Chances [Lesbian]
I let out a soft Mmm and instantly opened my eyes to see her looking at me with her head slightly tilted to the side and an amused smile playing on her lips. "Do you always have that reaction to things that taste good?" The possibility of a double meaning to her question wasn't lost on me and it surprised me, making me cough. I cleared my throat before answering. "Well, it depends.." I answered carefully. "On what?" She leaned forward slightly with what looked like an almost mischievous glint in her eyes. "On what I'm eating," I fired back sounding a lot more confident than I felt. Her eyebrows went up slightly. *** When Ren stumbles upon a job opportunity, she never thinks that it'll completely change her life.

Fates (On Hold, Rewriting)
Hello! I've decided to re-write this book, because I feel the new direction will make it much more interesting and open up more opportunities. As I update (which I do as often as I can) I write 'UPDATED' next to the chapter number. Until I get it all done, things may not make sense as you're reading them. I'm going to try and stick to the original plot as much as possible, so main characters and big events won't change that much. Thanks for reading! Here's a synopsis: Lilly Madison is a trained killer. She's spent her whole life killing vampires and hunting demonic creatures with her parents. They travel the country constantly, so Lilly hasn't had the opportunities that many kids her age have had, such as a proper schooling and a boyfriend. There is no room in her life for love, but things change when she is assigned to get close to a young man named Jason Adams because he is suspected of being a killer. Jason keeps to himself and stays close to his family, but Lilly is determined to crack through the barrier he seems to have around himself. Talking to students, she finds, reveals only rumors. She needs to get closer to uncover the truth. Shocking events reveal Jason’s true identity that he’s tried so hard to keep buried. Despite all common sense, Lilly finds herself drawn to him. She knows there is no room in her life for love. She knows he's a monster. So why is it that she finds it so hard to tell her parents about what he actually is? Desperate to protect her love’s family, but yearning to be loyal to her own, Lilly is forced to make the choice of who to side with. Will her decision force her to die a gruesome death or become immortal? Read on to find out!Complete
