Evette had always been aware of her ability to somehow attract bad luck and strange circumstances and tried her best to hide that fact by being as a nineteen year old female could be during thme Victorian Era. But alas, her stigma proved to be stronger than her feminine will and placed her in a "ball" of some sorts and drunk the moment her lips touched her cup.
But, against all odds, she was saved with the help of a angelic stranger and brought back to his mansion. Half convinced that something more than just sleeping took place in his bedroom that she woke up in, she's stays when he requests it of her to find out more about this mysterious man who would take in a living bad luck charm and claim to her that she was more lucky than she thought.

The Beastkeeper's Redemption
Tiffany Cotton was not who she said she was. The peculiar woman had shown up in Ravensfield one night, wielding a pistol with a familiarity that odd, run-of-the-mill spinsters shouldn't know how to do. She was bizarrely intelligent, wore gowns that were two sizes too big for her, and a smile that transformed her face. Kaede C'Lainn had a difficult time noticing anything anymore since he drank of a liquor that had been tainted with an enchantment, forcing his hand in an act that riddled him with guilt. But he noticed Miss Cotton. Particularly how she had the penchant to show up in places that she shouldn't be. There was something about her that spiked his intrigue... and suspicions. And after the last bout of recklessness on his part, he was not about the make the same mistake twice. He believed Miss Cotton to be part of a syndicate to end his brethren's life, and Kaede wouldn't allow that to happen again. Even if it meant apprehending the one woman whose kiss put all his broken pieces back together again in a world that rejected his kind. This is a fantasy-historical-romance with a lot of steam and a lot of romance! FMC is motivated to do some serious butt-kicking and MMC has a tail... :)Zakończone
Amnesia (Completed, Being Edited)
As if on cue, my room door bursts open, and in comes a girl. She's short, round in the face and has caramel skin; the ends of her natural, curly afro hair are died turquoise, and brown eyes lined with navy blue liner stare at me with curiosity, relief, but most of all, love. It's as if I've never seen her before in all my life, but I know her. I don't even have to ask who it is, or wait for an introduction. "Evetta," I breathe, but from the way that her lips curl into a smile, I know that she heard me. *** Caleb Winters wakes from a coma after a horse riding incident which he cannot remember, with chunks of his memory missing. He is impatient for his memories to return, and begins to worry that they never will. He has become disoriented, frustrated and angry; a far cry from the joyful, playful boy that his parents claim he was before the accident. He has become paranoid; he trusts no one. No one, except for his guiding light; a girl named Evetta, whom he has no memory of, but somehow knows inside out. Evetta brings out the best in him; gets gets him to smile again, laugh again, choosing humor over anger. She teaches him what happiness feels like again. *** A lot of the original sexual content has been removed from this book, as well as two of my other books due Wattpad's guidelines but the raw versions are on my Penana profile, which is free. *** Mature, 18+Zakończone
Dark Queen: The Cybelline Prophecies
A 21st century covert ops agent, Cybelline found herself transported to a medieval world of magic and war without a clue of how she got there. Fine, she'll consider this as early, early retirement and try to have a quiet, peaceful life. Maybe she would buy a farm and raise some ducks. She didn't plan to have royalty fall over her doorstep and demand marriage for "taking his innocence". Granted, she tripped him first, but he deserved it. If her idyllic life had been undisturbed, she could even ignore the war between humans, the Fae, and the Folk. If they had left her alone, perhaps she would have never discovered power so potent that it could destroy the world. Perhaps she would have never become the most feared person in the realm.Zakończone
Come and Get Me ✔️
"Do you normally make-out with the people you're hired to kill? It doesn't strike me as very professional." "Put the gun down," Gabriel panted, not answering her. "Why on earth would I do that?" "Because you're not going to shoot me," Gabriel replied, noting that she still had the safety on. "I bet you've never shot anything in your life." She studied his gun with a smile. "Maybe you're right," she replied. Then she pointed the gun back at him, taking off the safety and cocking it. "Are you willing to bet your life on it?" she asked him coolly. *** He didn't know anything about her - her name, age, even what she looked like. He only knew it was his job to kill her. But when Gabriel comes face to face with his latest target, he finds himself completely mesmerized and can't pull the trigger. Left with few viable options, he decides to kidnap her. Unfortunately for him, she's not willing to come quietly. Instead, their encounter sets off an intense game of cat and mouse, unraveling Gabriel's entire world in the process.Zakończone
Mated to the Cursed Alpha
In a world where werewolves were born with unique affinities, Amaia appeared to have none, not even the full potential of her wolf. Her parents neglected to take her to the academy where her abilities could be developed, only enrolling her sister, Veera. Amaia had lived her life without friends as everyone except her was always preoccupied. The Alpha of her pack, the Redmoon Pack, was rumored to be cursed; young women who approached him would vanish without a trace, and no one knew why. To test this theory, Amaia, who was largely unaware of the situation's validity, was manipulated by her sister into meeting and touching the Alpha. It was an impossible feat since the Alpha was always surrounded with bodyguards. He was always around men. But Amaia found her way through it. She didn't die like she should have. The Alpha himself was shocked. He was interested. Now, he would do anything to keep the only woman who could touch him without dying.
Bound To Bea
"No respect for the dead." His words came out in silent whispers, his teeth clenched. A small smile tugged on her lips. "Respect is earned in life, my lord. When a man fails to earn respect in life, it cannot suddenly be bestowed on him simply because he returned to the dust whence he came." "At the very least, Lady Atkins, pretend," he admonished. "Pretend to mourn for your husband! You are a woman in mourning! Grief, sadness, decency is expected of you," he growled, stepping so close to her, his nose almost kissed hers. "Not a low-cut, salacious red dress!" She inched forward, jaw set, until she could feel his warm breath on her skin. "And you are a man whose cousin's widow was only a few minutes ago caught with a man on top of her," she shot back, leaning further in until her lips were nearly brushing his as she searched his gaze. "Anger, rage, fury, is expected of you, my lord... Not jealousy!" * Newly widowed, the sudden death of Beatrice's husband has brought about her freedom from the shackles of a loveless marriage... Or so she thinks. All hope is quickly lost when she discovers her husband's cruelty in disinheriting her and leaving her penniless. But worse than his decision to disinherit her, is his decision to leave her at the mercy of his cousin; Noah, the very handsome Marquess of Camden. TW: This story contains mentions of suicide.

The Lighthouse Keeper
"Well, why DO you want me here?" He sits back in his seat, and takes a breath as if trying to figure out how to tell me something. He finally says, "I'm lonely here in the lighthouse. And even though there's and unlock button, it only lets others in- it doesn't let me out. So I couldn't be with anyone going out, but if I let someone in..." he pauses, and smiles. "And then I saw you on the screen the first day I searched. I don't think it was a coincidence that I searched at random and found you. I think it was fate, Claire." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Claire follows a dangerous dare to break into the 'abandoned lighthouse', she finds that it's not so abandoned, after all. It turns out that the owner, teenage Francis, is trapped in the lighthouse by a strong magic, and though he has everything he could ever want, he's lonely. Claire, now trapped inside, as well, starts to develop feelings for the lighthouse keeper... PLEASE NOTE: I wrote this story when I was twelve, and it hasn't been edited. I put it on here for some laughs XD Hope you enjoy anyway!Zakończone
