Summary
In a moment of weakness, (barely) married superstore supervisor Amy Dubanowski hires Jonah, a male escort. After a more than satisfying night, she opens up, confessing things she hasn't told her therapist or nosy (but uncomfortably supportive) boss, thinking she would never see him again.
Unfortunately, the next day she must train their new hire, broke dropout Jonah Simms.
Drowning in debt and another bout of not-so-seasonal depression, Jonah would take literally anything he can get (preferably legal, but he's not picky). So when avoiding each other becomes too hard, they form a deal. With money she doesn't have and time she can't spare, Amy will hire Jonah to be her friend, to help her study or just let her vent, but no sex, not again. Jonah gets the cash he needs to make frayed ends meet, Amy gets the companionship she was missing from her unfulfilling marriage, and they both get the promise of mutually assured destruction.
But pinky swears are meant to be broken and so are hearts, so when feelings emerge from the wreckage of their lives, it's not wholly unsurprising but not in the least welcome.

Summary
"The letter arrived for me early in the evening, late. I already knew its contents of course. My father’s press release had detailed the specifics of his withdrawal from the Endeavor Agency. Family business, outside stress, yada yada. It was at that point that I realized what was coming. His offer."

Summary
After helping the crown princess escape her sacrilegious fate, Imai Lisa has been sent to live out the rest of her days as a mute nun, unable to practice the healing magic she was once held in such high regard for. That is until she is taken under the wing of Sister Shirokane, a suspicious superior who seems to be playing many games at once in her underground hide out. But when a visit to a boastful necromancer draws the suspicion of a god killing paladin and a rival set of royals, Lisa must confront her past and learn that saving the princess might just have doomed the world.

Summary
Words do not carry in Neo-Tokyo.
The spread of the apocalypse was slow, then doom came for everyone, like most other trends. Parasitic masks that ate away at their wearers until they were made anew, feasting on screams and noise and dreams. Because of this, the Rose Bud, the only enclosed, purified district of Neo-Tokyo free from the Masquerade, is silent and dull. It survives by being no better than it's predator, by becoming one in the same.
Some do not agree.
The Masquerade survives through consumption and assumptions, a hive mind of eyes and ears and mouths all working for a singular purpose, to serve her. A girl who started it all, a girl unwilling to fall, a girl too far gone to truly understand why the neon lights of Neo-Tokyo are no longer visible. A trend setter, one might say. The first to don the mask. The one at fault. This is not true, but what is truth to a bunch of teenage girls?
This is the story of the girls who rebel, the girls who conform, and the girls who gorge.
