Summary
AU-gust Day 13
Prompt: Farmers MarketEvery Sunday, Maya visits the same flower stall to buy her grandmother a bouquet.
What starts as a simple way to bring some colour back into her grandmother’s home, slowly becomes something else entirely, when Maya finds herself looking forward to talking to the woman behind the stall just as much as the flowers.
Eight Sundays, eight bouquets, a little coffee, a lot of flirting, and one very determined grandmother later, Maya might finally have a reason to stop pretending the flowers are the real reason she keeps coming back.

Summary
Maya and Carina never imagined how deeply their lives would change when they opened their home to foster care. Fostered Hearts follows their heartfelt journey as they navigate the ups and downs of welcoming children into their lives, each with their own story, struggles, and needs. From joyful laughter to quiet heartbreak, every placement brings something new, and every child leaves behind a handprint on their hearts. Through it all, Maya and Carina grow, not just as foster parents, but as partners, as a team, and as the safe haven so many children have never known.
This book will be regularly updated, with each section written as a stand-alone story focusing on the journey of a different foster child. While the chapters are connected through Maya and Carina’s experience, each can be read individually as its own short story of love, resilience, and healing. Warnings will be given where needed.

Summary
Marina AU-gust Day 8
Prompt: JournalistsTen years after the London Olympic Games, Maya is reluctantly volunteered for an interview reflecting on the career that made her one of the greatest athletes of her generation.
For Carina, an up and coming journalist, the opportunity seems too good to pass up. She arrives excited to interview an Olympic legend, only to quickly discover that Maya is far more guarded, and far less willing to talk, than she expected.
But Carina begins to wonder if Maya is really the problem, or if it’s the environment that’s shutting her down. So, instead of forcing Maya to open up, Carina does what she does best, she changes it up.
Away from the station and the walls Maya has built around herself, will she finally be willing to share the story behind the athlete?

Summary
Between 2029 and 2031, a new pandemic killed billions and left survivors changed. Some healed. Some broke. And some became something more: Meta humans.
In 2048, when a serial killer begins targeting Metas with the same chilling signature, the FBI forms a joint task force to stop them. Special Agent Maya Bishop is ordered to co-lead it — despite her well-known distrust of Metas and a past that makes her anything but objective.
Assigned to work alongside her is Medical Examiner Dr. Carina DeLuca, a open and unapologetic Meta. Maya finds her convictions challenged in surprising ways. As bodies mount and tensions rise, the line between protector and predator begins to blur — and the truth behind the murders may be closer than anyone suspects.
