His scrawny legs as he struggled to climb the old willow tree. How we raced back to the dock from the middle of the lake on a hot summer day. What does the world say about Ethan Thorne? Well, the tabloids call him a playboy. A lady-killer. Some sort of maverick. The business circuit calls him ruthless and cunning. An unrelenting competitor. A titan of industry. But do you want to know who the real Ethan Thorne is? The truth is, I have no idea. Fifteen years ago, we were only children. For one short summer, we were pure and innocent, unspoiled by the cruelty of the world. But the funny thing about the world is that it has a way of taking what we hold closest to our heart and tearing it away. So I moved on. I grew up. I took my spills and I toughened up. After years of hard work, my flower shop was booked for the ritziest events in Los Angeles, and with my best friend April by my side, I was finally happy. I built a good life for myself, away from that other world. From afar, I watched Ethan Thorne grow up into the business magnate that he was destined to become. And sometimes, when the nights grew cold, I tried not to wonder what could have been. But some thorns leave scars that can’t be healed. Some memories refuse to be left in the past, hidden in the dark. Some promises change us forever. ----------------------- Silk and Thorne is the first book in the Silk and Thorne series.

Manik
Amo Jones - 2018
I live a low-key life, fresh out of college and drifting from town to town until I find my home. I love music, and how it stirs even the deepest and untouched parts of your soul. Depending on what you choose to listen to, would depend on what it touches. It’s the drug we all damper in, only different strains. My strain is Jazz. The smooth instrumental strums that take over me. The sound of cigar smoke, bourbon and an old dusty fedora hat. My strain wasn’t rap, and it sure wasn’t laced with some A-class shit like murky blue eyes casted down from the Lord and the Devil’s handcrafted smile. I knew who he was—the whole world did. One fateful night set off a chain of events, events that no one was coming back from. You can’t save people who don’t want to be saved. You can’t pull them up from the ocean when they’ve latched themselves to an anchor. Love was my anchor, destruction was the water that was drowning me, and the rope that was so tightly clamped around my ankles, was woven with the lyrics of Aeron Romanov-Reed, also known as, 'Manik. He steals hearts from all around the world, but one night, he stole something that wasn’t his to steal. Me.
