Author has written 10 stories for Historical, Romance, Supernatural, and General. Hi, I'm a n n a. There's a place in this sad, hate-ridden world that I long for, a place that I was not born in yet feel unrelenting loyalty to. It's natural beauty and bloody history beckons me like a pot of honey to a bee. Even with it's blood-lust and harshness, there's a purity and ethereality to it that seems uncanny to any other location. There's only one place that my heart aches to go: S cotland. Imagination is an astounding gift, there's almost a childlike decadence to it's creativity. It's what makes us dreamers live another day, breathe another sigh, and wander reality with our head held high. Our mind's in the clouds, and the only way to express it is in W riting. There's a world that we haven't known unless beneath the pages of the books that so many despised. Stories that had come to pass throughout the centuries. What inspires many of us to be who we are, where we learn from the mistakes and where we learn that we never will. H istory is a passion of what had been and will never be again. T raveling is sure to be one of our many dreams. Let's hope we do it before the day we turn 70. I have a different way of writing than everybody else, I confuse people by circling around a matter and leave things in fragments. I suppose I just love the thrill of anticipation and how it itches to know what happens next. I also love cliches, I know it's blah, but I love the whole version of it. I have a very unusual, unorthodox way of speaking and writing. At times I annoy people with that. I have a lot of things going on recently and haven't had the chance to update some things. Though I haven't forgotten about them, I'll be lifeless if I did, and ofttimes I am found in deep thinking which means that I'm imagining the lives of my characters and twisting ideas to make them turn out right. So if you like them, then please review. If not...you could move elsewhere. Enjoy! I take pride in my work and efforts, and I get happy when someone enjoys it and entertains them. T h e H i g h l a n d e r S e r i e s Love At Gunpoint--Janine Lahay was proud and innocent, though she only felt apathetic when her mother died at a shoot out. She couldn't believe when her luck was mocking her to the worst. Including getting kidnapped along with her sister and held in the Highlands of Scotland, demanded to act as the woman and wife to the cruel, cold handsome Laird of Illioch Castle. Janine didn't know that her attempts to keep Aidan McIllioch at a distance will be her doom in falling in love with the traitor. And why did the handsome laird seek any means to kiss her and trap her into seduction when all he does is push her away? The story of the proud Valkyrie and the alpha Neanderthal. C o m p l e t e d. Love, Give Me Redemption-- Rory O'Malley was curious of her Grandda Liam's homeland, Ireland. To fulfill the promise they made when she was a child, Rory was determined to explore Ireland. Discover the ancient castles, be able to walk in the land of her forefathers, climb the stairs of Blarney Castle, be undeniably rescued by an archaic, devastatingly beautiful Highlander. She comes to be reluctant of being in the presence of the exotically intriguing man that set her thoughts afire, but she soon realizes that, although she is set to run with him after a terrifying ordeal with a man with knife who has set the goal to kill them both, she wages a battle that she knows will be lost: heart over mind. Where else to go to where there is a knife-wielding madman chasing after them and Ireland becomes a death trap, to Inverness Scotland, in the demesne of the McIllioch Clan. So what will the tenacious history-geek Rory O'Malley do when she discovers Ian Walsh's decievingly secretive past? C o m p l e t e d. Love My Existence-- Killian Hunter has had it rough. With her father walking out on them to leave them in destitution, her mother bed-ridden, and her little brother was starting to become a teenager, the only thing Killian ever has are responsibilities. Working day and night to support her poor family, Killian doesn't have time for romance, but she couldn't help dreading that her poverty-stricken existence is all she'll ever come to know. However an eldritch clash caused Killian to meet the mysteriously masculine man on the day she worked at Lahay Fruit Farms & Winery, Killian knew that her time of just existing would come to an end. She couldn't help but notice that his archaic manners hid his devastating loneliness that called out to her own, especially when he started to make her feel emotions. Killian secretly wanted to know Duncan McKay; especially when he already holds her battered heart in his large hands. I n P r o g r e s s... Love's A Siren Song-- I won't tell you who's story this is, yet! Let's see if you guys can figure it out. Coming soon after Love My Existence... Lovin's For Fools-- Yes, there is another one. :) T h e O r i g i n a l S t o r i e s Everlasting Rapture-- 1356 A.D. Scotland. Moira MacMillan was the eldest of her two sisters, Tara and Nairna; the leader of the MacMillan lasses. When her cousin takes ill, she is bound to take a hard trip to Dublane and make sure Vika MacMillan breaks free of her illness. That is, if there aren't any raids looking for two girls to ransom. A Witch's Tempest-- 1364 A.D. Scotland.When she was a child of 12, Tara MacMillan rescued and lost her heart to a young knight blamed and hunted for the death of his father. But when Hugh McHale reunites with his wee savior, it's not the same Tara he knew and remembered. At last, Hugh has a chance to repay the brave kindness she had bestowed on him 8 long years ago by joining her band of raiders and destroying the dark rein his half-brother held over her lands...and trying hard not to fall into the temptation her mismatched eyes promised him. I n P r o g r e s s... The Union--Lorona Carson just recently moved to Charleston, South Carolina at an old estate, Montgomery Hall, and she is enthusiastic to find out that the estate was used as a makeshift hospital housing sick, injured, or dying members of the war. Even more so surprising to Lorona was the discovery of a hidden attic which she found a young woman's journal, depicting the hardships of pre-Civil War and the tragedy of the Civil War. Lorraine Montgomery was a Union supporter, heartily behind the strong nations beliefs and her forbidden love went against her and her nation's beliefs. Would Lorona's fascination die when she reads Lorraine's misery of choosing between love and love for her nation? All the answers lie in Lorraine's journal and unknowingly within herself. H i a t u s. Untamed-- Ah, the beginning of senior year of high school. Wonderful, right? Not really. Especially for a senior transfer to a new school, to a new house, to a new town. And a new life. A clean slate to start all over again, and fix the mistakes from the past. But when the past haunts like no other non-living ghost, it becomes pretty difficult. Until I met him. Looking beautiful, extremely tall, and elegantly rebellious, I knew that whatever luck I had had ran out. Goodbye, so long. Bon chance adieu. I never realized how much in common we were, until I let him inside my head when I had sworn off the XY male specie. I wonder if he will run when he finds out about my untamed past...or will I run from him. Point of No Return-- Esmé Winters was in the binge of revenge; her dearest mother and brother were murdered by a vampire the night she turned six leaving her in the care of her father-figure friend, Joe, and his nine year old son, Julian. Her hate that bred of the creatures was unshakable, until one persistent male vampire decided that she would be much more thrilling as his mistress. Little do they know that her hate and his cynicism will be their downfall, and their strength in the battle to come. This is my first written story, with changes. Story was moved from Quizilla where I first started writing under XxSandersonSisters06xX. This is my original work. Remember Blood-- Sequel to Point of No Return. Esmé Winters moved to London, England to escape the tragedy of her past, but one night, Esme was attacked, abducting her only connection of Seth. The only option was to leave London and follow the bread crumbs back home, to recover her lost daughter. Trouble is, she's being pursued by a man who was the spitting image of Seth Covington! Previously named The Sustained Enigma of Silent Memories. T h e H i d d e n S e r i e s 7th Child of the 7th Child-- Legends depict that the seventh child born of a seventh child, either son or daughter, was blessed with the gift of the elements and the sight. For the Mara bloodline, it has ever been so cursed. Or so Sade thinks... Berserker-- sneak peak coming soon... Creative criticism is welcomed, but I do not accept a total abuse of how badly I write. If my work isn't proved to your liking that's okay. Move elsewhere. Thank you for reading! | |||||
