A modern twist on the classic tale of Beauty and the Beast.
They were all crazy. I was certain they were. Serial killers! Psychopaths! Maniacs! Until, suddenly, they weren't. Suddenly, their craziness made sense; their stories became true. My fear turned into love and my instinct to flee turned into a desire to stay. It didn't happen they way they thought it would- the breaking of the curse. I did everything against the book. Quite literally. The story books and movies were all wrong. Adam wasn't a beast. Gaston wasn't a villain. (He also wasn't named Gaston.) It was all . . . different and no one could have prepared me for the ending.
My name is Avery and this is the story of how I was the real beauty to a totally unexpected beast.

Insentient
Beauty and the Beast meets the Labyrinth in the story of a woman lost and a man who couldn't care less. I made a slight mistake. And by slight, I mean an uncharacteristic lapse in judgement has landed me in a place that my rational mind cannot explain, and my body cannot escape. A land full of strange creatures and decaying landscape all ruled by quite possibly the rudest, most rotten person I've ever had the misfortune of meeting. Luckily, I'm a woman quite capable of adapting to my surroundings and I have no problem going toe to toe with my grumpy adversary. I might even turn this dismal place around if I'm here long enough. I wonder, though. For someone who insists he prefers a solitary existence, he sure seems to pop up to antagonize me often enough. Imagine my surprise to find the one person I wanted to avoid is the one I've come to crave more than life itself.Complete

What happens when Scarlett and her foster siblings are forcefully taken by them on a hijacked school bus? And when all three incredibly sexy men carry ruthless, cruel and dominating personalities?

EDIT (2023) I wrote this book at the age of 13... there is A LOT of grammar mistakes and things are not well thought out... I will not be changing them. I decided to keep the book up to look at how I've improved over the years. I'm 23 now. :) Giggle with me at my mistakes. <<Part from the book>> "If only you listened to me Scarlett." Drake then punches me in the gut, it's the same place he kicked me. I cough up blood and I feel like I have to puke, but I have nothing in my stomach to throw up. He bends down so he's eye level with me, and he tilts my chin so I'm looking into his cruel eyes. "I want you to scream." He slithers.Complete
Tell The Difference
* Usually this would be the time that Amanda would say, 'I told you so' and right now I would give anything for her to be here. Maybe she would scold me, but I would take it. Maybe she would scream at me the whole way home, but I would take it. And maybe she would curse me, insult me and even tell mom about it, but I would take it. Rather than this. This, I didn't know what the woman was going to do to me. I obviously knew exactly what Amanda was going to do to me in this situation, but this... this moment. "What are you..." I then remembered. Shit! Those men spiked me! And as fast as it hit me, I was out. * Amanda and Brenda were not sure if Aliah was trying to ignore her past traumatic kidnapping or if she was actually way over it. With the jolly and flirtatious Aliah, it was hard to differentiate fake smiles from real laughs, pretense from true emotions. And this situation seemed to be stressing them out even more than Aliah who had insisted on letting it go. Dreams crash realities. Two similarities crash two personalities. Will you be able to tell the difference?Complete

Caged By Him
"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn.
