[Sing along if you remember the tune...]
Maeva Giroux has some troubles of her own
She met a feral cat out in the woods alone
Crawlin' from the wreckage of a fallen balloon
The Cat said "Goodbye, but I'll see you soon"
Now listen real close as you shut your eyes tight
There's demons in the house and whispers in the night
"Get out of my house" is what the Cat said
But Maeva replied "No, you get out instead"
The mystery thickens almost every single day
Better solve it quickly, there's a windstorm on the way
Maeva's pretty young but she knows quite well
"Ancient Indian Curses" are a load of bull
And the Cat came back the very next day
The Cat came back, they thought he was a goner but
The Cat came back and just wouldn't stay away...

The Hollow Prince
COMPLETED. *NSFW* Auralie doesn't believe in fae stories-not the ones whispered by dying villagers, not the ones about cursed woods or monsters that eat your heart. But when girls begin to vanish and strange symbols bleed from the bark of the forest, she crosses the veil in search of answers. What she finds is him. Unmoving. Inhuman. Wearing a crown of antlers and eyes like cut emeralds, sharp with amusement. He speaks in riddles. Smiles like a threat. And calls her little moth, like a name he's been saving. The first time they meet, she draws his blood. The second, he offers her a bargain. The third, he consumes her. The Hollow Prince says worse things hunt her now-creatures that wear her face, sing her name, and slip into her dreams. He claims he's the only thing standing between her and the dark. But the deeper Auralie goes, the more twisted the forest becomes-and the harder it is to tell whether the prince is her captor, her shield, or the very thing she was warned to fear. There is a curse. A game. And a price that was never hers to pay.Complete
Colorful Lies
"Gwen, I can't do this anymore. The truth is, I don't even know you, and-" his voice cracked. I felt the first drops of rain on my face. "And what?" "And I fell in love with you. Of all people, you! The one person I don't get." "James-" "We're over." he cut me off and turned to walk away. *** This isn't the story of a girl falling for a boy. This isn't a story about a bad boy, or a nerdy girl. This isn't a love story. No, this is a story about ruin. It's about a girl who is on the brink of pushing a button and self-destructing. This isn't a story about a girl, at all really. It's a story about a force of nature. *I wrote the book at 11, but I wrote the summary last year, so please don't think that it is at all representative of the content.

Eyes of the Moonless Witch
Jade Aria Monroe She should've died when she fell from that cliff. But someone-or something-saved her. A strange woman. A silvery tea. A heartbeat that hasn't aged since.

Weeks later, she's thrown into a wedding she never agreed to-an arranged marriage to the younger Devane brother. Desperate, she runs. Through rain, through mud, through fear-until a sleek black car pulls up beside her. The driver? A stranger with eyes like thunder and hands that know how to hold chaos gently. She doesn't know he's the elder Devane. She doesn't know he's been in love with her since the day he saw her photo. She doesn't know he's saving her... from his own brother's wedding. And she definitely doesn't know that somewhere inside her, time has stopped-and the only person who can restart it is him.
Escaping Duty
After encountering something of myths one day after work, Valentina begins questioning her once mundane world. Seeking answers to prove she's not crazy, she receives another shocking truth that hits even closer to home. Mason returns home to escape his past, but familiar faces return, and new threats arrive in town. Keeping an eye on the enemy, he struggles to avoid getting involved any more than he should. But, when their paths cross, they learn not everything is black and white, and the people you least suspect could be your enemy. ------ 'This is a dumb idea' she thought to herself. Slowly she began reaching her hand towards the animal, feeling compelled to touch it. Would it be as soft as it looked? Did it want her to touch it? The rain continued pelting them, but it felt like its eyes were drawing her into another space, where nothing else mattered. The sudden desire to be closer to this animal was beginning to overtake her mind, especially as her hand neared its head. The whole time the animal only watched her with those large eyes. She imagined it almost asking for her touch. It didn't cross her mind how she knew he'd be soft, or how she even knew the creature was a 'he' to begin with. As her finger just barely grazed the animal, multiples things happened. She felt something shock her causing her to pull her hand back, just as thunder and lightning sounded. When the light cleared the animals' eyes, were narrowed into slits, and it was growling. It was a deep menacing sound that sent her stumbling backward, heart wildly beating. It bared fangs the size of her hand alone dipping its head. Had her touch angered the animal into finally attacking her? She kept moving backward in the rain, slipping in her converses as the creature continued growling. It was then she knew she was prepared to run, no matter what happened.
