The Fires of Vidar
Supernatural/Modern AU. Finding three mysteriously dead teens causes Sheriff Snotlout Jorgensen to call in his cousin and his band of supernatural investigators. Unexpectedly finding themselves in the past, Hiccup has to solve the mystery or they will all share the dead teens fate. Sequel to 'The Spectre of Raven Point' A/N: Halloween again and I couldn't resist the opportunity to deploy paranormal investigator Hiccup Haddock once more. Of course, there are no more spooky lighthouses in need of exorcism but a spooky house, some mysterious murders and a century-old wrong should keep him busy. Enjoy!

DEAD AS A DODO
Robin's life is in freefall over one weekend in April. On Friday, her fiancé Dustin calls off their wedding, on Saturday, she and her best friend Callie have a bonfire to burn everything but the dress, and on Sunday she moves from Dustin's apartment to her 80-year-old grandmother's house in the country. She's looking forward to returning to work and normalcy as a massage therapist at Rejuvenate, a popular day spa in a Miami suburb, but when she arrives Monday morning, a shirtless dead body has been discovered in the salt therapy room. The body belongs to one of her former clients. Six months ago, he'd been so obnoxious, she had to call the police on him, and because he's never worked with anyone else at the spa, it means Robin is the number one suspect. Quickly, Robin decides she needs to figure out who murdered him. Being sent to prison makes Robin's disastrous weekend seem as trivial as a bad pedicure. The only bright spot in this increasingly dark picture is that Robin's favorite clien
Fractured Legacy: Aicil Paranormal Files #1
"Callahan has combined two very intriguing characters with a great storyline to create a fast-paced supernatural tale." (Kimber Leigh Wheaton) Paranormal investigator, Kaylyn is thrilled with the opportunity to investigate the Teague Hotel-a beautiful historic building at the heart of Chatham, Ohio-with a not-so-beautiful past. But the conditions of her investigation aren't so ideal... First, she screws up on what should be a simple "pick-up" when she's sent to the local historical society to retrieve an occult object with unknown powers. Then, her new boss threatens to fire her on the spot, potentially ending the career she's dreamed about and worked for her whole life. Unfortunately, even after he relents and gives her one final chance to prove her worth to the organization, things continue to go wrong. Terribly wrong. Unexplainable dreams and blackouts... Fires... Unrelenting attacks against her mind, body, and soul, that may or may not be real. If Kaylyn stands any chance of defeating the powerful force waiting for her in the hotel, she'll first have to convince everyone around her that the threat isn't only in her head. And-possibly the harder task-face up to the fact that she needs to ask for help. "The ending scenes had me on the edge of my seat, behind a cushion hugging my dog."

Vengeance
[complete; editing, ROUGH draft] "Say something in Spanish." I snorted, "Like what?" "I don't know... I just want to hear you speak it." Our gaze stayed on each other for more than it should've. But I couldn't look away. Her hair laid out behind her on the pillow, her hands under her cheek and her head nearly under my arm. I inhaled, "Puede que me esté enamorando de alguien que nunca me amará." She parted her lips and for a second I thought she understood me, my heart skipped a beat until she spoke, "And what does that mean?" "It means, this woman beside me asks too many questions," I lied. ***** Oakley Marrero has been nothing but a rebel since witnessing her parent's murder at the age of eight.

Twin At First Sight |✓|
I felt the tears rise and I looked down for a minute, gathering all of my resolve. I looked up again and stared him right in the eye. "You know what? I trusted you!" I jabbed my finger in his chest and he recoiled. "I trusted you and you broke my trust. I trusted you to keep the secret. I trusted you enough to tell you everything. I trusted you to keep my trust. I trusted you." I told him and he flinched as my voice broke in the end. I looked away from him and at everyone else in the room. "And you wonder why I never trust. You know what? I can't do this. I'm done." I scoffed and shoved past Aiden but paused at the door, not looking back. "Oh, and if you are still curious? Go ahead and hack into the file. Don't say that I didn't warn you." ************************************************************** Alexis and Aiden are siblings with Aiden being 11 months older than her.
