The Hero Overlooked

The Hero Overlooked

Regretfully, due to the pandemic and some associated personal issues that came up I need to shelve this project for a bit. It was never intended to be a long novel, but I've been thoroughly pulled away and rather than release at most 1 chapter a week, I'll be putting this on pause and then when I'm freed up again, I'll dump the rest of the content all at once. --- Bruce Williams is an average American. A blue collar worker who lives his life by minding his own business, saving money, and planning for his retirement. After finishing up some work at the house, he was carrying his tools back to his truck when a bright light enveloped him and he disappeared off the face of the planet. Summoned to an alternate world as one of the five heroes, as a long-time nerd Bruce was pretty excited about his chance to be a hero. Unfortunately, nobody else cared how excited he was, as they're far more focused on the other four heroes and he's treated more as a tag-along. Follow Bruce on his journey to a new world where he learns how to harness his supernatural ability and struggles to be recognized for his efforts and successes. --- This will be my first time writing fiction of more than a scene or two; I've written a couple short stories a while ago, but I've always wanted to do more than that and finally decided to give it a shot. Please let me know what you think, and I apologize for the rough-draft nature of this submission. As I progress in the story, I'll try to go back and fix things up. Thank you for taking a look =)

ABOVE LOVE

ABOVE LOVE

Above Love Victoria Lennox has spent her life proving she is untouchable. At thirty-four, she is the youngest self-made woman ever to break eleven figures, the most feared name on Wall Street, and the undisputed queen of Manhattan. Love, in her experience, is a liability best left to weaker people. She has built an empire on that conviction: marble penthouses, private jets, and a heart sealed behind bullet-proof glass. Then a rainy night, a totaled Bugatti, and forty-seven seconds of clinical death change everything. A stranger drags her from the wreckage. She never sees his face—only the distinctive crescent-moon birthmark on the back of his right hand—before he disappears into the storm. When Victoria wakes in a private hospital suite with titanium in her femur and a debt she cannot quantify, she does what she has always done: she hunts. She finds him living in a Bushwick warehouse, fixing pipes for old ladies and donating half his income to a no-kill shelter. His name is Elias Crowe—former Army Ranger, Purple Heart recipient, and the one man in New York who wants absolutely nothing from her. She offers money. He refuses. She offers gratitude wrapped in couture and orchids. He donates the orchids to the hospital where she recovered. Every gift, every grand gesture, every attempt to buy absolution is met with the same quiet, unshakable rejection. So Victoria does the one thing she swore she would never do again: she shows up. In jeans. In the rain. In kennels that smell like bleach and hope. Slowly, infuriatingly, the ice begins to crack. What starts as obsession becomes something far more dangerous: partnership, laughter, Sunday mornings that taste like coffee and pancakes, and a three-legged pit bull who decides Victoria belongs to them both. Elias never asks her to be less than the ruthless titan she is; he simply refuses to let her be lonely while she’s being it. But Victoria has spent fifteen years learning that love is a loaded gun with someone else’s finger on the trigger. When the past comes roaring back—old betrayals, boardroom coups, and the terrifying vulnerability of needing another person—she will have to decide whether the empire she built is worth more than the man who taught her heart how to beat again. A searing, witty, deeply romantic story about what happens when the woman who has everything discovers the one thing money can’t buy—and the man brave enough to make her earn it. Above Love is a standalone contemporary romance with heat, humor, zero cheating, a hard-won HEA, and a dog who steals every scene she’s in.

Proper Heiress by Day, Motorcycle Girl by Night

Proper Heiress by Day, Motorcycle Girl by Night

[Hidebound Older Man VS Two-Faced Heiress: Daddy-Type + Seductress + An Old House on Fire] Everyone in Aethelgard says, a man should marry a woman from the West Family. The eldest daughter of the West Family is gentle and virtuous, a sought-after prize in high society. On the eve of her engagement. Her fiancé cheated on her. Willow West, having played the good girl for so long, decides she's done pretending. Fueled by alcohol, she finds a handsome man. Just one wall away from the scumbag ex and his mistress. The next day, she wakes up to her world collapsing. She had slept with the circle's famous 'older man'—Aiden Pierce, her dear uncle's best friend. Her impression of Aiden Pierce wasn't very good. Years ago, when she was having her first romance, she had tried to sneak a kiss with her young boyfriend, only for Aiden Pierce to report her to her uncle before their lips could even meet. The Aiden Pierce of today is even more dull—celibate and restrained, with everyone from his secretary to his assistant being male, and zero romantic scandals to his name. He's nothing short of a hidebound traditionalist! Willow West wants to escape. Aiden Pierce's well-defined hand grips her chin. "Miss West, a man's virtue is still virtue. You must take responsibility for me." * Aiden Pierce, who had practiced self-restraint for thirty years, was captured by Willow West—a woman gentle and demure in public, yet passionate and daring in private. Everyone thought Willow West was a good girl. Only Aiden Pierce knew that behind closed doors, the young woman not only smoked and drank but was also a cool, badass biker. * The assistant has recently noticed a change in the workaholic President Pierce. Not only is he hitting the gym three times a week, but his style has also shifted from uniform high-end suits to a different streetwear brand for every day of the week. His once stern and unsmiling face now frequently breaks into a smile. Even his eternally unchanged screensaver has been replaced. It's now a picture of a sexy, wavy-haired beauty in a black biker suit, holding a cigarette and sitting on a motorcycle!
