No one has any idea what it's like to be a cop in a city full of superheroes. It's being last to the crime scene and first to fall under scrutiny, but it doesn't stop Cody Fisher from doing his job. Er, most of the time.
Faulkner is the best-protected city in the United States--that is, until the public accepts two revolutionaries as their saviours. Before long, the city is in shambles, and the government can't keep it under control alone.

The Hunt
A blaring set of lights filled my eyes and freezing my body in place, I went into slight shock by the sight.

**CURRENTLY A FEATURED STORY** highest ranking: #11 in Science fiction ❝true happiness is only achieved without freedom. There is a girl who wakes to a world that she was supposed to protect. Instead, she fights it. There is a man who is cursed with the ability to dream. A glass city is their cage, a city filled to the brim with unanimity and order, a paradise on an earth laid to waste by an artificial snowstorm. Sunlight filters through the glass buildings and through glass walls, pierces glass floors. It illuminates the city square when it is strongest at noon, surrounded by a huddled mass of citizens, all as perfect as the city they inhabit. And they all think: everything is as it should be. And it is. Or, it was. -- long live perfection.❞ (c)sarahgaier2016 #diverselit | #LoveEqualsLove | #helpfightcliches | #freethelgbtq | #badassreads check out my Science Fiction novella, Sector-33, here! https://www.wattpad.com/story/62174094-sector-33Complete
What If I Lose You?
Tim Bradford has always been your partner-the tough, no-nonsense cop who never let his emotions get in the way of the job. He keeps his distance, his walls high, and his focus unwavering. But after months of working together, you begin to feel the subtle shifts-the moments when his gaze lingers a little too long, when his protective instincts go beyond the call of duty. The tension between you is undeniable, yet neither of you dares to speak it aloud. Instead, you hide behind words, jokes, and the constant hum of police work, while everything beneath the surface simmers in silence because what if the real threat isn't the criminals you're chasing, but the growing fear that one wrong move might tear the fragile connection you've both been avoiding? What if, in the end, the greatest risk is the one of losing each other without ever really understanding what you had?Complete
Dont Be a Hero
Detective Jackson Wolfe thought he had stepped into the pages of a comic book. The first indication was the unlikely partner he'd been paired with. Macy Grey was a seemingly naive, annoying-yet-beautiful blonde Betty Boop. He was further astounded when he learned the nature of their department. He had been assigned to the highly confidential and brand new V.S.I.D... or The Vigilante and Super-human Investigations Department. Wait... what? Did old Chief Munson have a sense of humor after all? Were they pranking the "new kid on the block"? Jackson didn't buy it. "Go forth! Track down and arrest thee Spiderman... and his cohorts!". Well, it was no prank. What's more, it didn't prove to be an easy task. The alleged "super-powered" vigilantes were apparently much better equipped and far better trained than the police or F.B.I's most valued and effective members. This just fueled the desire to put a stop to them. After all, no one should be allowed to apprehend criminals without doing mountains of paperwork!Complete
