    Summary

    When I was eighteen years old, I made a decision. I was not going to live the same life that my sister was living, or that my mother had been living, or even my Gran. So, after one semester of community college, I decided that Omaha just wasn't going to cut it for me. I packed my clothes, took the remaining money I had from graduation, got into my shitty red Volkswagen and left Nebraska for good.

    Penny knows what she wants in life. At least, she used to. Howard and Bernadette's wedding sets off a series of events which will change her life forever. Plans change and Penny will have to learn the hard way how to adapt.

    Summary

    As the most elite of the elite, Anbu operatives were considered the most frightening, powerful, and most seductive amongst shinobi. The way they protected the village while cloaked in shadows, appearing like God-appointed deities when they were needed most, forgoing honor in exchange for anonymity—was as attractive as one could possibly get. But to Sakura, the real allure lied in the deceptive, red smiles painted on their masks, and in figuring out just who was behind them.
