    Summary

    When Katie Evans is offered a job by Stanley Edgar, the president of Vought himself, she eagerly accepts, grateful for the opportunity--not knowing it will be as the personal assistant to Soldier Boy, recently returned to the modern world after decades of imprisonment.
    He's abrasive, temperamental and possibly insane--all while behaving as if he's still in 1944, which creates it's own unique set of problems within their dynamic.
    It doesn't matter, though--despite how difficult Soldier Boy makes it, she is determined to keep her job and succeed--even if it kills her...
    ...Which it just might.

    Summary

    Female Tywin Lannister. Started as a fun what-if and grew from there.

    *

    "That had better be a jape," The cold words were jarring from the pretty ten year old, and caught the attention of the hall immediately. Silence fell. Tytos opened his mouth, but Tya cut him off. "You've betrothed me - your firstborn child - to the second son of the Lord of the Crossing?"

    There was a mocking, incredulous note to her voice.

    "Well Tya, Lord Frey asked very courteously - it would have been most insulting to have refused him,"

    "He asked courteously?" Tya raised an eyebrow. "Is that all it takes now? Should Genna fear being betrothed to the son of that kennel-master knight, if he asks nicely enough?"

    *

    "Why did you have to do this, Tya?" Her father moaned. "Return Lord Walderan to his family at once, with our sincerest apologies! Forgiving his all his debts should be the least we do to make amends,"

    The look Tya gave Lord Tytos was fit to reduce him to a pile of ash.

    "I was planning on returning Tarbeck to his family in three pieces,"

    Summary

    The dark-haired man known as the Winter Soldier lies motionless in his chilly glass coffin, the skin on his face a pale bluish white, eyelashes streaked with crystalline frost. But he does not look dead, not quite; perhaps something more like Snow White awaiting love’s first kiss. Zaara spent a good deal of her evening reading about sleeping princesses and Bucky, first and foremost, reminds her of a disheveled fairytale prince with his long brown hair and dark stubble peppering his chiseled jaw. His is a rare sort of masculine beauty, frozen in time. She smiles and imagines what it would be like to kiss those bluish lips, wondering if he would wake up slowly, eyelashes fluttering, to smile back at her.

    But she gasps and turns away, burying her face in the crook of Steve’s neck. He looks down, startled by the way her silken tresses tickle his jaw, the unexpected weight of her body making him tremble. “Zaara?” He’s worried about her, scared for Bucky, and thrilled to feel her body pressing up against his own. He’s never comforted a woman this way before, using his body. It feels so natural and incredibly satisfying.

    Summary

    In Branson, death lurks near the water’s edge. 

    Hours after a brutal case concludes, an exhausted Anita Blake is dragged to a clandestine meeting with old friends. Mike Bauer and his fiancee settled in Branson to advocate for the conservation of Subject #149, one of only a few hundred lake monsters left in the world. A recent rash of child murders has the local police riled and ready to take decisive action, no matter how erroneous their target. Nessiteras rhombopteryx are gentle giants, with jaws equipped for small, freshwater fish. There’s no way this lake monster is attacking kids.

    One thing is certain. Something feral and hungry lurks in the Lake of the Ozarks, and it’s only growing bolder. 

    But Anita’s reason falls on deaf ears. Sergeant Freemont has already fingered a suspect in the deaths—a psychic named Magnus Bouvier. The best she can do is warn Magnus before a witch hunt ensues, and he ends up on the wrong side of the pyre. But what she finds in the lakeside tavern shocks even a seasoned federal agent and vampire executioner.

    Will Anita be able to net a victory, or will this case deep-six life as she knows it?

    Summary

    They say moving house can be murder. For Federal Agent and licensed vampire executioner, Anita Blake, that sentiment seems to be literal. 

    Elliot Murray’s three-story home is enormous, out of the way, and the perfect locale for an executioner with an overabundance of cats. But Anita’s would-be discount digs have a secret that McDonnell and Williams desperately want to hide. The aptly named Murray Murder House, site of a grisly murder-suicide, has lain empty for years. Rumor has it that the savage spook still roams the halls, frightening residents away within a week of purchase. 

    But Anita isn’t just a federally sanctioned investigator. She’s also a necromancer, employed by a firm where the living raise the dead for a killing. Haunted houses are old hat. 

    And this ghost is about to face a reckoning.

    Summary

    Anita Blake, vampire executioner and foremost animator in the tri-state area, always seems to escape trouble by the skin of her teeth.

    Others aren't so lucky.

    With St. Louis still reeling from Mr. Oliver's attack months before, Animators Inc has joined in the effort to find the missing, presumed dead. Anita's party makes a shocking discovery in the shallows of the St. Louis River— the mangled bodies of a stripper and a local prostitute, both flayed alive.

    While she struggles to find the culprit, Anita's personal life is just as fraught. Forced to juggle the romantic needs of her werewolf lover, and the political needs of her vampire master, Anita doesn't think life can get more complicated. Until it does.

    Digging deeper, Anita discovers a commonality among the victims, and a conspiracy to keep the deaths from the police. The officer in charge refuses to allow Anita to consult on the case, or even set foot on a crime scene. Anita must seek help from an unconventional source, two medical professionals from her past, one that she doesn't always trust, and the other who she doesn't like.

    But like it or not, she has to trust them. Lives are at stake.

    Summary

    The increasingly complicated journey of a demigod who just wanted her friends to be able to go to school....

    Or.....I (the writer) attempt to fix my personal issues with the MCU by applying an original character and the Riordanverse.

    It should work out.

    Along the way enjoy my unnecessary references, use of dramatic irony, fluff because we deserve it, and pointed questions.

    Also, demigods because we all need more of them.

    There is something inevitable about them; like the certainty of the sun in the morning and the moon and all her stars at night.

    After all is said in done, how will history tell their stories?

    Summary

    "Two months ago I stared into the abyss and it blinked. But the contest was close." 

    Autumn has come to Saint Louis and as the seasons change so do the monsters. A reluctant Rudolph Storr calls Anita Blake in to consult on his newest case. Members of a new radical hate group, Humans First, are turning up dead, seemingly killed by vampires. Case open and shut, right?

     Wrong.

    When the latest victim rises, Anita discovers something she previously considered impossible. Vampiric atavism. A throwback gene that appears to be perhaps a million years old. No one has ever seen a vampire that old...until now.

    A deadly threat has been issued from a shadowy vampire council. The Dark Mother continues to stir, and a fresh threat presents itself in the form of Alejandro, a master vampire scarier than any she's fought before. He's intent on having her, no matter the cost. Anita is pushed deeper into preternatural politics than ever before.

    Only ingenuity, strength, and the help of a winsome Master of the City will help Anita, and the City of Saint Louis, come out of the brewing turf war alive.

    Summary

    When wealthy investment banker, Harold Gaynor, arranges for a private meeting with she and her boss in his stately home, Anita suspects sinister ulterior motives. The sorts of things one doesn't discuss, even behind a closed office door. Her suspicions are confirmed not long after meeting with their enigmatic client.

    One million. That's the value Harold Gaynor places on human life.

    Their client needs a corpse raised, the location to a treasure locked in the mind of a five-hundred-year-old corpse. The older the zombie the bigger the death needed to raise it. Human sacrifice. And Gaynor already has someone in mind. A legal executioner and monster hunter she might be, but Anita's not willing to be a killer for hire.

    But someone is. Not long after Anita turns the job down, a terrifying series of murders rip through Saint Louis, and all signs point to an undead creature the likes of which Anita has never encountered. She'll have to lean on her hard-earned skill as a hunter, and the help of a certain vampire celebrity to solve the case and put this monster in the ground—for good.

    Summary

    Rosennis Stark was not like her younger sister Lyanna. Promised to Roose Bolton, she wasn't bold, nor beautiful, nor wild; more stiff, stony and icy cold. Though she lacked her sister's rugged charm, she was a Stark nonetheless, and Starks survive hard times, make it through the winter. The winter spent as Aerys Targaryen's hostage and plaything in King's Landing are the hardest times of Ross' life (so far). She returns north after the rebellion with scars on her skin, a bastard son with lion's eyes on her knee, and memories of fire and blood that refuse to leave her. And after all that, Roose Bolton never broke their betrothal.

    Giana Lannister was beautiful. Not just of face, but also of character; her brother joked she couldn't possibly be a Lannister with her cheery smile, innocent naivety and lack of ambition. Yet somehow she was her father's favourite, even after an ill-advised fling with Robert Baratheon, resulting in a black haired bastard of her own. Dangerous, in a time when Baratheon banners are rising with Stark, Arryn and Tully against the might of the Targaryens.
