Hi TNBW group! I've been working really hard at getting this story clean and tight, and I know that there is more I can do. I'm currently starting to edit and rewrite some things, along with adding more detail. I'm hoping to get some good feedback on what's working, what's not, etc. I'll take it all, the good the bad and the ugly. I will return reviews as well. Thanks again everyone. Cate

NOTE: Sorry for the confusion about the title. I decided to go back with the original title (the one I had before posting here on tNBW). I think it suits the trilogy better.

SUMMARY:

Is being psychic a gift? For Mackenzie it's a curse--especially when that "gift" delivers her into the hands of a serial killer.

When Mackenzie Hill discovers her mother’s colossal deception, she tosses her life down the garbage disposal and relocates to Watcher's Point, Oregon in search of answers. What she finds is shocking; the man she's been dreaming about for years not only exists in the flesh, but he's got a secret agenda of his own.

Aidan Payne doesn’t expect to get emotionally involved with anyone, least of all a woman who looks at him with disturbing insight. As a serial killer escalates his twisted game, Aidan’s protective instincts take over and sparks begin to ignite. Both realize that if the killer isn't caught, Mackenzie might become the next victim. But neither could have foreseen the web of lies spanning three decades—lies which paved the way for the wrath of a serial killer.

Summary:

Martin Faulkner is a moral deviant of the spiritual realm yet an extremely successful businessman in the “Psychic Arts.” He is a vile man, yet the best (or worst depending on your point of view) of his kind. Since his childhood, he was gifted with extraordinary psychic abilities but his one true weakness is preying on the recently deceased souls of the young and desperate. His favorites are those of young Native Americans that perish from disease in the San Marcos Pueblo across the river from him. Johnathon Bergstrom is a freelance journalist hired to document the life and impending demise of Faulkner but instead finds himself psychically trapped in Faulkner’s mansion, in Santa Fe, where he must fight for his life to escape. In doing so, he finds himself in the loving protection of the spiritually powerful San Marcos Pueblo people of whom Faulkner intends to buy lucrative, expiring water rights from. If Faulkner succeeds, the humble Pueblo and its rich culture and history will surely perish. Bergstrom finds unexpected love in the Pueblo and attempts to hide and save her from the ever-growing psychic power of Faulkner while, at the same time, rediscovering and developing his self-hidden psychic gift. As the date for buying the water rights quickly approaches, Bergstrom and the Pueblo leaders must rely on the Hunter’s Moon to launch their spiritual attack against him. A time when Faulkner is his weakest and they are their strongest. However, the ultimate sacrifice must be made to ensure their success and save their people. Any feedback is welcomed.

This the first half of a short story I've been working on about an old man who kidnaps the terminally ill to prolong his own life. It's about 1500 words so far and is just something weird I was experimenting with. I'm not really sure if the rhyming aspect of it works... So I'd like to ask whoever reads it to provide feedback on that particular part of it, and of course, on the story itself. Hope you enjoy :)

Summary:

The afterlife, or the netherworld, or the great beyond...whatever you call it, has a group called The Foundation. They came together in a frenzy of yin/yang energy to review the world of the living teenager, and choose one to give a gift that would help him or her through his/her adolescence. The first recipient in the series is a teenager named Millie Mahoney. Her mother was murdered in 2005, and her father has turned to alcohol to deal with the loss. She is obsessed with words, so The Foundation decides that the most appropriate gift would involve those words--she can write things into existence. I'd like any kind of feedback, but the tense shifting is new to me, and the members of the Foundation are all from different points in history, so as far as how believable those characters are--that interests me as well. Thank you!

Summary:

SHADOW WOLF SERIES: Remembrance (Cameron&Sophia), The Three Kingdoms (Aedan&Kathleen-no longer Bianca), Cursed (Ian&Kirrah). BOOK 1: Remembrance: Sophia considers her life pretty much normal, that is until she befriends a gigantic wolf, who happens to push her down a waterfall. Technically, the fall wasn’t so bad and she would have forgiven her four legged friend, but when she emerges from the water, she finds herself several hundred years in the past, in Scotland of all places, abandoned by the wolf. Lucky for her, she is rescued by a handsome Scotsman, or so the arrogant lout says. Really, what’s wrong with the man? One minute he drives her mad with his kisses, the next he accuses her of being a witch. Cameron’s nights are plagued by dreams of a spirit, begging him to remember something long forgotten, and his days are tormented by a lovely stranger, who very well could be a spy from the enemy clan. What is a laird to do? Keeping the lass will only anger his mistress and cause him great distraction at the time of war, but the thought of sending her away leaves him barren. When Sophia saves his life, he learns that maybe there is more to life than empty passion and the sound of clashing steel.

Feel free to leave, likes, dislikes, nits suggestions... Thanks@

Working on another round of major revisions. I'm primarily changing the backstory and using the raven myths of the Scandinavian and Norse cultures as a basis. I've changed the names of many of the characters and am wondering if the slightly less common names are distracting.

Summary:

Sequel to The Evolution of Janie. I always appreciate feedback of all types, however this is a sequel and it is written with the assumption that the reader has read The Evolution of Janie and is familiar with the characters and what has happened in the previous book, so when reviewing for content, character development and background story please take that into consideration. :)

Summary:

Darci Shelton gives herself just one year to make her new flower shop a success, but she must come to terms with the shop's resident ghost while struggling to put Petal Pushers in the black. This full-length book is broken into twelve chapters, one for each month, with stories about her customers woven in. Some chapters were longer than 5k so I had to post them as continuations. Darci's plant profiles at the end of each chapter contain things that will tie into the novel and give some extra info about some of the lesser characters. Plus I thought this would give the readers interested in flowers a little bonus. Any and all comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated. NOTE: The heart of this story is the same, but I just revised it to add the POV of the Ghost Lady (updating chapters here today). She promised to haunt me until I let the readers hear what she had to say, so I think you'll enjoy it.
