After the meteor hit, a shock wave surrounded the earth. Since then the wind hasn't stopped. The world's once ecstatic energy is slowly diminishing.
Nicolas is having second thoughts about disobeying the police's very precise and specific orders. Never before had he seen so much electric activity, anywhere. The sky lit up and the bright jagged streaks across the sky scorched the earth. As the lightning came closer it wasn't very long before one found its way right through the center of Nico's heart.
Julian being the "perfect" guy that he is had no intention of staying up after dark. Sadly, when the roads are closed and there's no where to go, staying put is his only option. But when a flaming tornado is spiraling out of control toward you staying put is a ridiculous idea.
Nicolas and Julian are the only thing standing between ultimate destruction and a place where you can walk to school without experiencing a natural disaster. With as many obstacles and delays in the way as there are seconds in a day, they were chosen for the task at hand.

The Inferno Code
*Complete* *Rewritten* Since the Eclipse War, humans have been forbidden to ever roam the streets at night. They have been taught to fear the consequences of their actions by abiding to the laws enforced by the Sun Troops-Live beneath the unruly night or follow the laws that govern the light. Luna Bennet has been nurtured beneath the rays of the sun, adhering to guidelines that govern every facet of her life since before the day she was born. She is human perfection in the eyes of the Light Realm, a polished student in the Academy of the Four Lanterns who has followed every decree set forth by a flawless world. But fate has a strange way of testing Luna when she unintentionally breaks the rules of The Inferno Code by being left alone in the dark. The young twenty-three-year-old never expected to come face to face with a demon in the flesh, much less the fearsome monster of all-A Malefic who brands her with the emblem of chattel. © April 2019 The Inferno Code by Gwen Jean ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete

Certainly they could trust that those in power ultimately had the best interests of the people in mind, right? ~~~ Luna slouched low in her seat, staring at droplets of water that ran diagonally down the window of the bus. The sky was a flat, depressing grey and the incessant, soaking rain left her constantly chilled. It was a typical "liquid sunshine" day in the Pacific Northwest. They drove past a single tall scraggly tree on top of a hill shrouded in mist. The creepy tree was full of screaming crows. How could she hear them from inside the bus when she couldn't even seem to hear the voices of the kids around her? Geez, that was an awfully freaking dark image. She shivered and looked away. What did they call a group of crows again? Right, a murder of crows. Perfect. The weather was certainly the only thing that was typical these days, although you'd never know it by looking around the bus at most of the kids as they sat joking and gossiping with each other just like they had before... before that day everything had changed. Idiots.Complete
Spectrum
Everyone knows evil exists, but most people die before they witness it in its purest form. His home is a place of simplicity, order, a city without troubles. So, why does it have so many enemies? Nicolas was one of many who bore witness to a terrifying scene; the threat of their greatest enemy is materializing before their own eyes. Who could've guessed his life was about to get more complicated? When his government forces him into a dangerous mission, Nicolas has to taste the darkness to warn them of the poison that has already seeped behind their walls. With all the courage he can find, Nicolas slinks into the heart of his enemy, his lips weighed down by lies. The threat level grows, the clock slowly runs out, and his humanity slips through his fingers like the sand on which he rages a war no one can see, and no one can know. If his enemies find out his secret, he dies. If he doesn't pay close attention, he dies. If he doesn't succeed, everyone he loves dies. But, if it helps him save his family, perhaps evil in its purest form...isn't such a bad thing.Complete
The Game Changer (Blake) 3 ✔️
Book #3 in The Fire series BLAKE RIVERA "You're the leader of a gang." Aiden yells. I look up at him. "You don't think I know that?" I yell back. "I am doing everything I can to protect my people!" "Your people are being murdered. You're in a war you don't even know is happening." "I know what's going on out there. I know what's happening." "Then why aren't you doing anything to stop it?" I slam my hands on the desk and stand up. "I am doing everything I can!" I yell anger laced in my voice as it flowed through my veins. Suddenly the lights went out; a flashing red light comes on as alarms sound. "You need to do more." Aiden says. "Otherwise this. It's never going to stop." "They're attacking." I realize. "They're always attacking. And they're not going to stop until we're dead." "Or surrender." I mumble and Aidens head snaps up to look at me. "You won't. You can't." "No, what I can't do is kill Felix." "The man you loved isn't there anymore. Can't you see that? He's gone. A monster wears his skin. What's it going to take before you realize that?" I shake my head. "Evacuate. Make sure everyone gets out of here. No one dies today." "Well, someone should. And we both know who it needs to be." Aiden says before he leaves the room. I know Aiden is right, but I can't kill Felix, even if he keeps trying to kill me. I shake my head and sit back down. Just because everyone else was leaving didn't mean I had to also. Maybe I can talk some sense into him. I sigh. I've tried to already, but maybe this time it will be different. Maybe I should tell him the truth. Maybe I should tell him Nadia is his daughter. The door to my planning room is thrown open but I stay seated. I look up as men flood into the room, soon followed by Felix. His emotionless eyes find mine and he cocks his gun. "You should have run with the others."Complete
Tomorrow's Blues
~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph. She struggles through her grief as well as dealing with the mysterious but obnoxious Joseph, and it soon comes to light that he isn't the only one around her keeping secrets. Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all."

The Sins of Our Fathers
I went from a girl who didn't know how to kill to one who knew how to make dying hurt. Dear Diary, It sounds so harmless, so innocent, but what if it wasn't? What if it was the start of a plan to burn down the world? My father was an artist, a visionary, a truly great man; he was also a con man, a contract killer, and despised by everyone. He was the head of the Russian Mafia. Now he's dead. All I have left of him is the hate of those he oppressed, and his journal with a plan to end the world. Everyone always forgets about the villain's family, as far as their concerned we don't exist. We are forgotten, no fame, no fortune, only the residual hate. My name is Neoma Casimir and they have forgotten me too, but trust me when I'm through they won't make that mistake again. The clock is ticking. The end is coming.Complete
