***Top 55 of Harlequin's So You Think You Can Write Contest*** 
Elaine Archer didn’t always know she was different, not until her accident in sixth grade. A fall that should have killed her left her with nothing, not even a scar to flaunt as proof of her fall. From that moment on, she kept the secret even from her own family; the secret that she couldn’t be hurt by any ordinary means. Blades cut through her skin, fire burned her flesh, but her skin would simply mend itself as if it had a mind of it’s own. One day, she sees three people who, unknowingly to her, all possess gifts, like her. After days of stakeout, they succeed in kidnapping Elaine and take her away to work for them. In a world where no one can be trusted, how will she survive?All Rights Reserved

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- "Sweetie, I just want to help you." "And how are you going to do that? Lock me up in an asylum where there are psychos who could hurt me? Put me to death? The possibilities are endless when it comes to getting rid of me, huh?" "I would do no such things." "Now who is the liar? And for the record, I have delicious snacks tugged away in my bag if I get hungry. I do not need your poisonous food. Also, do not call me your sweetie or sweetheart. Margie is your child now." "Margaret, you are sick. You need help." "The only help that I need..." She took a bow and arrow out of her bag, letting go of her bag in the process, and set the arrow on the bow. "...you all need help." Without any warnings, she grabbed ahold of me, forcing me to my feet, and held me close to her, pointing the sharp end of the arrow at my neck. "And the only way that you guys will receive help is if I kill my replacement." ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you!

Evelyn clutched a worn photograph, its edges softened with time. The image depicted a younger, smiling version of her father, his arm slung around a woman with warm eyes.

The police investigation had gone cold, leaving Evelyn with a relentless thirst for answers. A determined glint entered her eyes. She wouldn't let her father's memory fade. She would find the truth, no matter the cost. Across town, in a dimly lit room, Ace received his orders.

Ace wasn't new to undercover work, but this mission felt different. A flicker of unease sparked within him as he studied Evelyn's file - a young woman with inquisitive eyes and a fierce spirit.
