    Summary

    Neil has four younger siblings who are all as feral and unhinged as he is.

    Nathaniel Wesninski is dead. Or at least that's what the world was supposed to believe.
    The eldest son of a cult leader in the woods of Northern Wisconsin, Neil escaped a life of fire, silence, and ritualized abuse by smuggling his four younger siblings to freedom and then disappearing. Years later, he resurfaces on the Foxes' Exy court under a stolen name, still running, still watching the shadows, still branded by the past he swore he'd never speak aloud.
    This is not the story of a boy with no future. This is the story of five red-headed siblings, one found family, and the price of staying.

    Summary

    After a particularly rough few weeks acting as their introduction to the Delta Quadrant, the still very new crew of Voyager makes the difficult decision to settle on a habitable planet to ensure their survival. Voyager is left to her own devices to hopefully reach the families of her crew someday. The only problem with this arrangement is no one bothered to inform the EMH.

    Really I just wanted to do a character study of a very person-dependent character when I put him in situations where he would be on his own.

    Summary

    An outlaw love story with bite.

    Cassidy “Copper” Lane doesn’t do trust, not after what the world’s taken from her. She rides solo, shoots straight, and keeps her scars where everyone can see them—so no one dares get close.

    Then Arthur Morgan shows up. Van der Linde gang enforcer. Too serious. Too smart. And way too good at peeling back the walls she spent years building.

    Thrown together by bad luck and worse timing, Cassidy and Arthur navigate bullets, bounty hunters, and betrayal on the fading edge of the Wild West. She’s got a sharp tongue. He’s got a quiet kind of storm. Together, they’re either the perfect disaster or the last chance either of them has at redemption.

    Witty, brutal, and full of heart, The Last Draw is a gritty western romance where survival means keeping your gun loaded—and maybe, just maybe, letting someone in.

    Summary

    Growing up, Jackie thought twenty-four would look a lot different than this. She expected the city, the sunlit apartment, the kind of job that kept her fed if not inspired. But what she hadn’t accounted for—what she never could have pictured—was how sharply the absence of Shauna would hollow it out.

    Summary

    Fuera de las aldeas ocultas, donde la ley no alcanza y la infancia se vende al mejor postor, existe una guarida. Un lugar donde los niños son marcados, clasificados y usados según su utilidad. Orochimaru la dirige. Kabuto la administra. Y los capitanes la sostienen.

    Toya, Takeshi y Reidan crecieron entre sus sombras. Uno fue entrenado para matar sin preguntar. Otro para leer mentes y preparar el terreno. El último aún busca entender qué significa sobrevivir sin perderse.

    Esta historia no es sobre héroes. Es sobre niños que aprendieron a obedecer antes de aprender a hablar. Y sobre lo que ocurre cuando una misión los obliga a mirar atrás. Porque en la guarida, el pasado nunca está muerto. Solo espera su turno.
