WARNING: this story is kind of old and my writing has changed A LOT since I wrote it. You can still read it if you want to, just go easy on me :) ----- The Davis family lives a relatively normal life in Galveston, Texas. At least until Corey goes on a business trip to Cuba and his ship is attacked by pirates. He doesn't come back home, and Bailey can't get a hold of him. All she knows is that he was severely injured in the action. In the midst of her worry, Bailey is grateful for her eccentric sister, Olivia, who takes her young sons off her hands for a few weekends to allow her to collect her thoughts. But when Peter and Aiden begin to come home with bronze and silver coins, Bailey starts to wonder what she doesn't know about her little sister. AMAZING cover created by @j_lovely **EDITED** #18 in Adventure 9/15/16

Being a powerful woman in a man's world is often isolating -- a reality Amber Chase has accepted. After all, her tastes are often too eccentric for most of the men who dared to get close. With a curated selection of designer power suits, red-bottomed stilettos and multi-million dollar deals, she enjoys nothing else but control. Despite meticulously crafting her world, an unexpected interview throws it into chaos. A striking beauty with nicely cut jaw and an equally formidable reputation, Vincent Wolfe presents himself with a gaze that seems to pierce right through her. But beneath his mesmerizing exterior, she senses a darkness that mirrors her own. As Amber explores deep and uncharted waters with this enigmatic paradox determined to pursue her, she resists the urge to let him in. Enamored by his beauty, she believes submission will hold his attention. He, captivated by her confidence, assumes dominance is the key to hers. Or....is it? When power plays intertwine with pleasure, a line between control and surrender must be drawn. Who gets to draw that line? This deliciously subversive tale of power and submission will shatter perceptions as two powerful forces indulge their truest, darkest selves for their deepest, carnal needs. _____________ This is a work of fiction.

After the death of her brother, Hadley Fenice takes over his prosthesis business but knows it will be an uphill battle as women are discouraged from doing man’s work. In return for building Lord Sorrell an automaton arm, he offers her a chance at freedom by following him to the Negev Desert under the guise of a man. But what lies beneath the desert is more precious than potshards or bones. As they venture deeper, they discover a society where the path of life is not governed by gain but by passion.

Morganica is never really normal. In fact, she doesn't even belong in the category of red-blooded, fragile humans. She is so much more than a weak, pretty girl. So, what exactly is she? She's merely a girl who was unwillingly betrothed, betrayed and became a target for assassination in the same day as her recognition of the royal black title. A literally blue-blooded girl, who--in her escape, fell into a hurtful betrayal and into a place different from what she is used to. A world where a few creatures that roam freely in her kingdom was kept from ever existing--terrifically hidden, to create order and prevent extinction. Our world.
