Author has written 1 story for Love.

I’m the epitome of sarcastic, though you would never think that based off of first impressions. I always laugh when someone’s trying to be serious with me. I have a horrible poker face, though not for lack of trying. I cry when I read sad books, or watch sad movies, but when something horrible happens in real life, I don't care nearly enough. I can make anyone laugh when I really want to, though that's not often. I'm a master at faking a smile, even if I'd rather be frowning. I can spend thirty minutes revising the wording in a ten word sentence, then write an entire paragraph and not check my spelling. I'm one of those (read: crazy) people who believe there's a reason everything happens, and it'll all work out in the end. I'm Maria.

I'm more of a reader than a writer, due to an increasingly perilous case of writer's block. Hopefully I'll regain some inspiration, and write a story in the distant future, but even a poetry submission on here is pretty surprising (I post work mainly to DeviantArt).

Keeping The Peace (Aspen Valley Book 1) by Hannah Hooton reviews
Perky London waitress plus inability to tell one end of horse from the other DOESN'T equal racing secretary to grumpy trainer Jack Carmichael. Useless racehorse plus cheating jockey DOESN'T equal Grand National hope... or does it? SKoW runner-up!

The Inexplicable State of Being There by big.break.and.laryngitis reviews
Brody Hansen and I, we had a system. I didn't like him and he didn't like me, but we both liked watching each other undress. That's just what happened when you gave good-looking, hormonal teenagers bedroom windows that faced each other. Full sum inside.

Live In Position by Saewod reviews
Working as a nanny and writing a novel was the plan. Adoring the red haired six year old and dealing with the cold absent father wasn't part of the dream, nor were steamy nights, an engagement ring, or the drama of the cold, rich and snobby.

Taking matters into your own hands by surprise butt secks reviews
He didn't want anyone to know about us because he was the big bad business man. I had had enough and just wanted someone who wouldn't be humiliated of me. ONE SHOT

Last Minute Lullaby by Maren Drake reviews
Her father was sick, her brother was a mess, and she was suddenly seeing his best friend in a new light. Rocky should've been falling apart, but instead she was falling in love. Rated for Lang, and sex, plus mention of abuse. More detailed summary in profile

The Rabbit Hole by Penelope P reviews
When a riddle from her dead father comes in the mail, Alice Ripley learns that things like pirates, secret passages, skeleton keys, and bad guys who just might want to take over the world actually exist. Wonderland wasn't exactly what she expected.

On Wings of Angels by Naomi Yates reviews
What do you get if you mix a heroine who fails to recognize the need to be saved, lots of online gaming, smart-ass flirting and generally people who *like* being who they are? Not your usual romance anyway...
