Sweet as candy, evil as sin, you would never guess Fatema Andrews was living a double life. After meeting Kylan Taylor out of fate, she isn't too nice to him at first but that's what he likes the most. Fatema juggles college classes during the day and sins more than the devil at night. Coming from a notorious family of an Italian mobster and being one of the most dangerous female hitmen alive, she must figure out ways to keep her double life under wraps. A beast would be an understatement to describe her, Fatema is more like a savage. And to her, being at the top of her game, she has no time for love or anyone to get in her way of her money.
Growing up in poverty, in Queens New York, Kylan Taylor was exposed to many different situations. One thing he knows how to do is take care of himself and his family, if need be. A father in the military and a mother who had an addiction, he's willing to go to any length necessary to keep his family safe and to survive in the dog eat dog world. Kylan learned at an early age that not all things that you love will stick around. What will happen when skeletons start falling out of closets? When the two meet, will Kylan be able to give up his terrible perception on love? Will Fatema let her guard down and let love in? Walk the streets of the city that never sleeps to see if savages can really fall in love.

A musically talented teen with her sights set on the spotlight must find a way to get her life back when she falls in with the mob. ***** In a city where con artists make the rules and aspiring females wear sequins and dance with a pole, Melody Holiday refuses to ride on the coattails of her semi-famous grandfather. She wants the freedom to choose her own path to showbiz greatness. When a chance meeting with a handsome stranger provides Mel with an opportunity, she thinks she's landed the big one. But her grandpa isn't thrilled with the direction Mel's career is going, and it's not until she stumbles across something she probably shouldn't have that this becomes clear. Perhaps meeting the stranger with the Rocky Balboa eyes wasn't by chance. Maybe Mel is rubbing elbows with the kind of people who could take away her freedom for good. This story is loosely based on the author's feral youth. So, if you like your fiction shaken not stirred with a sprinkle of badboy on the rim, NEON GIRL delivers the goods; giving readers a dose of drama, a dash of romance, and a heaping helping of Las Vegas schmaltz. Oh, and there's a killer playlist, too. WATTYS WINNER! LEGAL DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction and owned by the author.

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION Can she be herself in a one-size-fits-all world? Lori Palmer is the new girl at Bay Water High, where students prize glossy hair, beach bodies, and school spirit above all else. She misses her old school―where her talent as an artist carried more weight than she does―and longs for her old family life, before her parents got divorced and her mom reinvented herself. So Lori decides that the only way to survive the rest of the year is to blend into the background, but her plans go awry when she discovers that the most popular (and hottest) guy at Bay Water High, Jake, is a volunteer at her brother's school. When her brother befriends Jake's sister, Lori is suddenly thrust into his unfamiliar and exhilarating world of water polo, parties, and stargazing. But with her relationship with her mother deteriorating, old anxieties resurface and Lori finds a new artistic release that unknowingly ignites a powerful movement. When the authorities start asking questions, Lori realizes that finding her voice might have gotten her into a world of trouble...but sometimes standing up for what you believe in is as important as standing up for yourself.
