Living in a small town has it's pros and cons. To many, I am seen as the strange, quiet orphan that is often found alone and in isolated places. My families arrival here nearly 10 years ago sparked the interest of everyone in this town. And that interest only intensified upon the death of my supposed parents on the eve of my seventeenth birthday. This town was chosen by my family and I for a reason, and despite the hardships I have faced since moving here, it has served its purpose well. Until now that is. We always knew running was a temporary option, but I never imagined I'd be alone to face the obstacle coming my way. The past never remains in the past, and soon, mine will be coming back for me.

Samantha's highest aspiration is to survive her family until she reaches the age of freedom, eighteen. Destiny? Love? Concepts that are as foreign to her as a sound night's sleep.

But if she thought she had problems before, she's definitely not ready for Nick, or all the questions he raises about her life. Are her dreams really predicting the future? Are her sister's powers real? What's her mother up to? She can't really have a destiny, can she? Can love be real, if some prophecy tells you it is? What's a seasonal?

Sam has gotten this far by tolerating everything, never standing up for herself, but when eyes turn toward her little sister, it's time to put up or shut up. Destiny.

Birdbrain
Every time I tried to stop, something clenched in my stomach, instinctual and feral. It compelled me to move. Sometimes it felt like it was pulling me in the opposite direction, back the way I came. That feeling I ignored - nothing short of demonic possession could convince me to go anywhere near that forest ever again. It wouldn't be nearly long enough that I would realize I hadn't imagined that pull. That some invisible force was compelling me towards that man. To Nate. When I did realize, I made sure I used it to keep running in the opposite direction of wherever it told me to go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Picture this: you're a 17 year old werewolf. Your Alpha, under false counsel, believes your entire family instigated a failed coup so he kills your parents, and you're next. Your options are basically die now, or turn rogue and die anyways. What do you choose - swift and painless, or drawn out and lonely? If you answered, "Neither," then you'd be correct. I didn't anticipate, though, that one bad theft in the beginning was going to send a ripple that would come back to haunt me in unimaginable ways.
The Dark Warlock: The Nox Haven Series
Destiny. It was a funny thing. I had always thought that I could create my own destiny. But after attending my junior year at Nox Haven, I knew that wasn't possible. My destiny was written two hundred years before my birth, when my ancestor- The Dark Warlock- created a cult of Dark Ones. It was my destiny to rid the world of his mistake- but I didn't know how. That was the funny part, I knew what I had to do but I didn't know how. Nobody wrote that part of the prophecy. I would figure it out though, two of my beloved friends were dead because the Dark Ones. I swore on their graves that no one else would follow. **Book Three in the Nox Haven Series**Complete

After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school.

Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process.
