“A mighty pain to love it is,
And 'tis a pain that pain to miss;
But of all pains, the greatest pain
It is to love, but love in vain.”
Coming home can be harder than staying away sometimes.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Vulcan in the grip of Pon Farr must be in want of a mate.
---A Star Trek meets Pride and Prejudice Story---
Lila James knows that her friendship with seventeen year old Chase Almeida is extremely inappropriate, but she still isn't prepared when his older brother Jack decides to tell her just how inappropriate it actually is-- inadvertently igniting a fire that had been burning quietly inside of them for years.
*****Lila's Thunder has been removed for editing, refining and if all goes according to plan, publishing! I couldn't have finished it without all my readers leaving their words and thoughts--even if I didn't always like them--so THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. <3

Kendra Dentaris is scared of her luck. At twenty-nine, she's the head graphic designer of a popular gaming website, the brand-new owner of a gorgeous downtown condo, and independent to the bone. And she may be in a relationship that's actually going somewhere. That's if Chase McGuire would stop cheating on her.
According to her best friend Prince, he's totally going to propose. That had to be why he invited her out to a remote village out in western Pennsylvania for the weekend. But Kendra takes a wrong turn and the life she knew before literally disappears.
Formally Ashes, Ashes
Red flashing lights…
Heavy footsteps echoed through the deserted hallway.
Fire alarms blared...
Breaths lodged in throats as the search for survival worsened.
Pungent smell of death overwhelmed as the Z’s closed in...
Survival was futile now, running was the only escape; in this new apocalyptic post war world, living was no longer guaranteed.
College student Rory Daniels has a problem, and it isn’t how she’s going to pass her final exams.
You see, she can do this thing where she can manipulate objects… and other things, and as far as she knows she’s the only one who can. So when she’s forced to use her powers at a crowded bookstore and attracts the attention of a fellow student, she’s anything but happy about it. When it turns out the student has no interest in turning her over to the government and actually wants, of all things, a double date, she’s pleasantly surprised. That is, until her date ditches her for her friend and she ends up stuck with his.
His friend turns out to be Victor Ryken. He’s tall. Built like a Greek god and has a set of the most memorizing hazel eyes Rory’s ever seen. And, oh yeah, he does nothing but infuriate her. After the date from hell, Vic has for some reason taken an increased interest in her and what’s worse… her powers light up every time he touches her. When Vic’s around her abilities go haywire and his presence marks the beginning of a string of unusual events. Suddenly, she’s become a person of interest to nearly everyone she meets and strange people pop up in her life that have her question her own weirdness. When Vic himself displays a whole new level of weird while saving her from an attacker, Rory ends up concluding one thing.
Maybe she’s not as alone as she thinks.
