Lake Stories

THE HOUSE AT BLACKWOOD LAKE Eight friends. One secluded mansion. A weekend that was never supposed to end in murder. Aaliyah Monroe thought she was going away for a weekend with friends. Nothing more. No drama. No responsibilities. Just three days at a beautiful lake house surrounded by nothing but trees, water, and miles of silence. Then, three days before the trip, Aaliyah receives a message from an unknown number: DON'T GO TO BLACKWOOD LAKE. She ignores it. After all, who could possibly know about their plans? But the moment Aaliyah arrives at the mansion, something feels wrong. The strange symbol carved into the gates. The locked rooms no one wants to talk about. The photograph that seems to have disappeared from the house. And the way everyone suddenly becomes uncomfortable whenever Blackwood Lake's past is mentioned. By midnight, the weekend has turned into a nightmare. Someone is dead. The roads are blocked. There is no way out. And somewhere inside the mansion is a person who knows exactly what happened. As Aaliyah begins searching for answers, she realizes everyone has something to hide-including the people she trusts most. Old friendships begin to fracture. Secrets buried for years start coming to the surface. And the closer Aaliyah gets to the truth, the more dangerous the house becomes. Because the murder wasn't random. The warning wasn't a coincidence. And whoever is responsible has been waiting a very long time for this weekend to happen. At Blackwood Lake, the truth doesn't stay buried forever. The question isn't whether Aaliyah will solve the murder. It's whether she'll survive long enough to discover why it happened.

But can love finally break a curse that has lasted through eternity? A fantasy romance filled with reincarnation, heartbreak, angels, demons, and destiny.

"The gray sparrow struggling for the light will be suffocated by a bloodthirsty daisy. The stars and the darkness will clash, and the daisy might conquer all..." The four Clans have been at peace for a moon. Prey is plentiful, and water is near.

Kat Blackwood just made the biggest mistake of her life. A weekend in Las Vegas was supposed to be all about celebrating her best friend getting married to the love of her life. Instead, Kat wakes up with a wedding ring, a marriage certificate, and a husband she just met yesterday. Her father is powerful, surely he can help sweep it under the rug and get a quick annulment right? Wrong. Instead, she gets an ultimatum. Ivan Blackwood has spent decades building his family's empire, and the last thing he needs is a scandal threatening a major business deal. If Kat wants to remain part of the family and keep access to the life she's always known, she'll stay married for one year. Moving to Jasper Blake's quiet small town should be the easy part. Becoming friends with her accidental husband? No problem. Falling for him? That was never part of the deal. __ Jasper Blake never expected a bachelor party in Vegas to change his life. He planned to have a few drinks, gamble a little, and head home to the struggling family ranch he'd do anything to save. Instead, he wakes up married to a gorgeous, wildly out-of-place heiress. When Kat's father offers him enough money to keep the ranch afloat, as long as the marriage lasts a year, it's an offer he can't afford to refuse. Keeping the marriage strictly business should be simple. Until the city girl starts feeling like home. As the months pass, their fake marriage begins to feel dangerously real. But with Kat's return to her old life looming closer every day, they'll have to decide if what happened in Vegas was the biggest mistake of their lives or the best thing that ever happened to them.

There are times when we doubt ourselves, our abilities, our capability to accomplish the things we fear, only to approach them valiantly and persevere. When we set aside our self-doubt and perfectionism, we might come to the realization, "Hey, that wasn't so bad. I'm stronger than I thought I was." Fear can break us down, but the power to overcome that fear can bring us back tenfold. There are times when we welcome a challenge, knowing that if we pull through, we can come out the other end, a better version of ourselves than we were before. This is not one of those times. Come along on my several-year long journey of fighting one of my biggest childhood demons: The Swim Test.

I am going to try and upload a poem a day.
