100 mile dash

"You are one stubborn lady, you know that?." His raspy tone sounded close to her ear, sending gooseflesh up her arms. And her emotions must have been closer to the surface than she'd wanted to admit, because she could feel the sting of tears behind her lids. Not wanting David to know how he affected her, she hid her face in his shoulder and tried a laugh. It sounded a little wobbly, but it was the best she could produce. "You hardly know me, David. And you already made it clear to me that you don't want to…i understand" He rocked her from side to side, and she could hear the smile in his voice when he spoke. "Well, you are making it difficult for me to stick to that" Bonnie squeezed herself closer, loving the solid feel of his chest against her cheek, the strength of his arms around her. She couldn't recall ever feeling so safe. "It wouldn't be so bad if you let yourself. Forget about whatever reason brought us together. Let go, and live in the moment" David groaned, and then his hand was beneath her chin, tilting her face up. Bonnie smiled, thinking he had a few more questions for her, when his mouth closed over hers and she couldn't think at all. —---------- Bonnie Rimmer is in danger, and David Stewart knows that it's all his fault. He had made more than a few enemies over the years, but a creepy stalker kidnapping the woman he was meant to protect is an entirely different matter. All of this could have been avoided if he had kept to one rule: don’t protect anyone you want to screw. Don't get emotionally involved with your client. But with Bonnie, he’s caught between his job and his increasingly hard libido. The woman is way out of his league, but David wants nothing more than to take the hot volcano of a woman in his hand. To make her writhe in pleasure, until she’s at his complete mercy. She needs protection. He needs satisfaction. And the moment the line is crossed, all hell will break loose…

What happens when a Fabled Assassin took a vacation? Monsters exist, and Siegfried Silverstein is one of the top agents of a clandestine organization that keeps the peace between humans and monsters in secret. Now, in his vacation, the Head Director assigned him to take care of monsters that are currently living under his roof. With the help of their Coordinator, Mr. Heinz, Siegfried is balancing his life as both a top assassin and trying to experience a "normal" life, with the added difficulty of caring said monsters.

In a world where caring gets you killed, twelve-year-old Echo learns this lesson too late. Nameless and invisible, Echo survives in the ruins by staying small and forgotten. When Maya appears with bread, soap, and the first kindness he's ever known, she gives him something more dangerous than hope—she gives him identity. For the first time, Echo believes he matters. He's wrong. Maya's care was conditioning. Her kindness was commerce. Echo isn't being saved—he's being prepared for sale. Sold to an underground facility where children sort contaminated scrap for impossible quotas, Echo discovers that survival means shutting down everything human inside him. But when he befriends Lily, another broken kid just trying to make it through each day, he makes the fatal mistake of caring again. One act of selfless kindness. One moment of choosing another person's survival over his own. That's all it takes for the facility's "processing" to begin—systematic torture designed to rewire his brain until caring becomes impossible. Now, as a mysterious figure in black tears through the facility to free them all, Echo must confront a truth more devastating than any physical pain: sometimes the people who save you arrive too late to save who you used to be. The Last Mile Home is a brutal exploration of what it costs to remain human in a world designed to break you. Some lights at the end of the tunnel lead to cliffs. Some hope is just another kind of poison. And some damage can never be undone—no matter who comes to rescue you. For readers who want authentic trauma over power fantasy. For those brave enough to walk toward a light they'll never reach. This captures the emotional devastation, the false hope structure, and positions it as literary/psychological rather than action-adventure. It also warns readers what they're getting into while making them want to experience Echo's tragic journey.
