author - "Cassidy Shay"
When Meredith was 4, her mom and brother were murdered. Since then, a voice that only she can hear has been following her around, guiding her through life. When the voice leads Meredith to her mother's library, she will uncover all of her secrets.
A young WWII soldier describes the challenges and conditions of being a soldier, and why the reward is worth the cost.
Chloe had everything she could want. Not only was her family wealthy, but they were close. She didn't think that anything would ever ruin it. But when she came home from school early, her world was shattered.
After the death of her two newborns, Meagan struggles to keep up her strength, so that she can be a mom for Belle. As the Azuli slowly gain more freedom, the citizens of the New World lose more and more liberties every day.
Three years ago, my parents got a divorce. Since then, there's been seven guys that have been brought into our lives, and then left in the dust. Would you like to meet them?
This book will be a combination of my poems and short stories. It'll be all my memoirs. It'll be how I became who I am today. My construction.
And you might have noticed how I put this under the "adventure" category. That's not because my life is super exciting. But it's because LIFE is an adventure. :)
After being relocated to Floor 6 of the Azuli Academy, Penny is forced to marry again. When the Academy insists that she have children, she finds a loophole that will bring her pain and loneliness, but also joy and happiness.
I take a deep breath. “Mikey. I can hear you.” The six syllables come out slower than I wanted them to. My voice shakes with each sound.
There’s a long pause. “Yeah.” He sounds confused, and I understand why. Of course I can hear him. He’s on the radio.
“You don’t understand, though." Now it all comes out in a rush. "I’ve been deaf since I was six and I was in the car earlier and suddenly I could hear this radio station and Amazing Grace was playing but I couldn’t hear anything else and I can’t hear my sister or my mom and I can’t hear if the dog next door is barking. I can only hear your radio station.”
“Miss Miller, you were chosen for an experiment dealing with Azuli breeding." It took a second for things to get settled in my head. The word “breeding” kept bouncing around in my brain, and it was all I could think about after he was gone. Instantly, I thought of all the times in the Memories when human slaves had been bred. Then it fully sunk in, making me shiver. I was to be bred, like a horse or a cow. Like a slave.
When I was seven, something happened that changed my life. I don't think about it much, but when I do, I usually wish that I hadn't, because it's hard. I've never written about this particular part of my life before, but I hope you guys like it.
