Once upon a time, in a small Carolina border town, there lived a woman and her dead best friend's kids. Orphaned at fifteen, Mackenzie Temple can't exactly fly under the radar. People still whisper about those poor children that deceased, alcoholic mother left behind. To make sure her new surrogate parent doesn't regret her decision, Mackenzie sticks to two simple rules: Head down. Grades up. But when an evening of rule bending kicks off a chain of unfortunate events, Mackenzie's carefully constructed world begins to unravel. And that mysterious mountain boy isn't making things any easier. Meanwhile, her strange Art History class taught by even stranger teachers embarks on a field trip, taking the concept of strange to a whole new level. Was learning how to track evil creatures even on the course syllabus? With chunks of memories missing, Mackenzie's world falls deeper into chaos. For her little brother's sake, she can no longer hide behind her books. Facing enemies, old and new, she must act or lose the very thing she's tried so hard to protect. Secrets must be kept. Lies must be told. Monsters must be stopped.

There's a lot of cliche sayings. For example, "Sometimes you just can't help who you fall for." That's how Tash and Amir thought the saying went until their once secret love affair was exposed, making their once so simple love life and everything around them spiral out of control. When Amir discovers secrets from people in his circle he wonders who can he really trust? Is everybody who they really say they are? Ultimately, who all will he have to get revenge on? For Tash, one thing after another keeps spiraling out of control in her life as well and she wonders, is all this really worth it? Follow Tash and Amir through their journey's and find out whose Revenge was a Secret and whose won't be! After randomly doing the short story challenge that went viral on Facebook, I decided to turn those stories into a book. These 10 chapters are the first 10 copyrighted and unedited chapters of my book Secret Revenge, releasing on September 30th, 2017! Books are ready for pre sale by just going to the link below.

Did I kill him? I hope I did. Because if he isn't dead, I will be. That's why I'm going back home. To King's cove. To find the treasure my father's diary will lead me to and use it to get the hell out of the country. What else am I supposed to do with fifty bucks to my name, an old coded diary and a body full of bruises? Only problem is that I have to avoid the four boys from my past that I hate at the same time. But this is the perfect opportunity for me to take what I'm owed. Once upon a time they betrayed me. Broke my heart and sent me away. Hunter. Jeremy. Shade. Ryder. Those four names are burned into my skin more permanently than any of the ink painting it. The four boys I once knew don't just live in this town anymore, they run it. The gang. The nightlife. The violence. It's all theirs. The packs. And those four morally ambigous avengers rule it all. All I have to do is slip past them, do my thing and get out. Should be easy, right?

(The Triumvirate Histories Book Four) What does the world think when a girl who'd been dead for three months turns up at the site of a huge CIA raid, which ended up with an explosion and four deaths? That she might have been in a stickier situation before than they'd known. What did they think would happen when she had a major panic attack after she realized that everything about her was gone, locked away in her mind? Well, obviously what did happen...or else they wouldn't have been prepared to knock her out again with morphine. And just who would that girl be? Me, Emmy Alexander...at least, that's who they told me I was. You know the stories of people with amnesia after a traumatic accident. They don't remember weeks, months, or maybe even a few years of their lives. I'd call them lucky, because they at least had a foundation to build on. Me? I couldn't remember a thing when I'd woken up after they'd knocked me out after my panic attack. I couldn't remember me, my family, my best friend, how I'd gotten the burns and cuts that now marred my body... I couldn't remember whose green eyes haunted my dreams every single night. My therapist said that my memories might come back in my dreams, when my subconscious mind was free to be revealed. And so far, she'd been right. Parts of my life were slowly coming back to me - my father's laugh, my mother's smile, my brother Jason's and best friend Drake's annoying overprotectiveness. But there were others that I couldn't explain - a tale of secret societies, puzzle keys, bronze boxes, and break-ins to museums and government buildings around the world. It wasn't until I saw those eyes on a man, who seemed so familiar that it made my heart ache, from across a gallery in the Louvre. A man who introduced himself as John Raymond. And it didn't take me very long to realize that maybe, just maybe, he was the key to everything.

Preface: Crimson Shadows In the shadows, where the light dares not tread, there lies a tapestry of stories - tales woven with threads of crimson, spun from the lifeblood of those who have walked the path of adversity. It is within these shadowed realms that the true mettle of the human spirit is forged, tested by the fires of despair, guilt, and the relentless pursuit of redemption. The pages that follow bear witness to one such story - the journey of Amara Torres, a young woman whose life has been irrevocably altered by a tragedy that has left an indelible mark upon her soul. Haunted by the memories of her past and her late best friend, Amara must navigate the treacherous terrain of depression, self-harm, and the crippling weight of an unspoken secret that threatens to consume her. As Amara returns to the familiar confines of her hometown, she finds herself confronted not only by the remnants of her former life, but also by the enigmatic presence of Nolan Kirovsky - a fellow traveler in the realm of privilege and turmoil. Together, they must confront the shadows that have defined them, forging a path towards redemption and the unearthing of long-buried truths. Through Amara's story, we bear witness to the resilience of the human spirit, the capacity for transformation, and the profound impact that a single moment can have on the trajectory of a life. It is a tale that delves into the depths of the human experience, exploring the complex interplay of loss, guilt, and the the pursuit of healing. So, let us venture forth, into the realm of Crimson Shadows, and bear witness to the extraordinary within the ordinary, the light that shines amidst the darkness, and the extraordinary journeys that unfold when we dare to confront the ghosts that haunt us. It's my first book please be kind guys, lots of love. from me ©All Rights Reserve, Copyright. Book by ZEE. You may not copy the story line.

Ren and Zander Potter are fifth years with a dark shadow of a past trailing behind them. No staff member or student at Hogwarts know much about them, only that they are brother and sister, and that they somehow remained off of headmaster Black's radar in regards to when he'd search from any witches or wizards to admit into Hogwarts. Because of this, they only came to be noticed when they showed up at Professor Fig's doorstep one day, just out of the blue with, seemingly, no recollection of what had happened to them. Professor Fig knew that the lie they came up with, in regards to not remembering, was indeed a lie, but by glancing at their haunted faces, he knew it wasn't the correct time to bring it up...so he chose to believe their lie. Due to their unknown magical power, Professor Fig was tasked, by headmaster Phineas Black, to catch them up on their spells and wand work so that they could begin attending class at Hogwarts as fifth year students. How will the Hogwarts students and staff react to the newest witch and wizard? What's their family lineage and background? In due time, all will be revealed as Ren and Zander embrace their new adventure in Hogwarts.
