**Winner: Licking River Writers Contest** After five years away, Jacks returns to reclaim his life- only to find a lush accountant with curves that fill out her clothes living in the apartment over his folks' pool house. Oh, the attraction is there- but Jacks doesn't believe in love anymore and Sophie can't trust her heart. Amidst murder, deception, mafia threats and a final race to claim the object that could redeem one of their lives- just one, not both- Sophia and Jacks struggle to define what love is, who they can trust and, in the end, exactly the price they may or may not be willing to pay for it all.

I Went Down (NaNoWriMo Read-Along)
A story about Emmy Jane, a girl who has come to make a name and a place for herself in the big city of Delta Mouth, about Cal, a nightclub owner haunted by the ghost of his dead lover, and about a killer for the mob named Dapper Jack. It's a tale of death and redemption, of love and hate and jealousy. It's a tale of dream and of nightmares. It's a tale that is still mostly in my head, but as NaNoWriMo steams along, it is coming into being. This year, I've decided to post a read-along version through WattPad. Sharing this raw, first draft is sort of the literary equivalent of walking around in my underwear, but I'm doing it anyway. Feel free to follow along and point out any developing plot holes. I'll post new text Monday-Wednesday-Friday.Concluida

She was shattered, her past erased by pain, her voice stolen by trauma. He was a ruler-not just of politics but of the shadows where justice was a debt paid in blood. Ruthless to those who took justice for granted, yet never cruel to the innocent. At an early age, he learned one truth-power commands justice. Without it, you're nothing. That night, their worlds collided. He found her-battered, nameless, drowning in silence. He should've walked away. But something about her... felt familiar. A forgotten memory. A name lost in time. A connection buried beneath scars. She had no past she was willing to share. He had a childhood he never let go of. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it rewrites the story in the most ruthless ways. Some scars don't just heal... they reveal. And when the truth surfaces, will it mend what was lost or destroy them both? A story of pain, justice and an unexpected love that blooms in the darkest places.
