Play Me Once

"What happens when the man I can't stand becomes my boss? Kingston Palmer is public enemy number one. Pain in the—*ahem. You see, I used to like Kingston. He even asked me out…and then crushed my feelings. To Kingston, I'm nothing more than a game. One that he's sure he can win. Don't worry; he underestimates my own dedication to winning. Unfortunately for me, I accidentally signed on to work at his company (yes, yes, it's a loooong story). Kingston is my new boss. But I'm nothing if not efficient. I'll be an expert at my job all while dutifully ignoring my boss and his ability to lean on door frames. My task is to create a nonprofit that benefits the community. Easy peasy. It's everything else that gets complicated: avoiding my boss, making the required snide comments, and turning him down for dates is turning into a full-time job all on its own. It's not like he actually wants me. At least, I don't think so…"

Vladimir's Victory: A Frazier Family Side Piece

"_The Frazier family has been through a lot of turmoil over the last few years. After Tallulah and Peter suffered the invasion of Trent Lockley, it took some time and therapy for the crazy bunch to get back on track. They are not what they once were, but many people might say they are even stronger now. Vladimir has always been the oddball among the Frazier kids. With his love for reptiles, gothic appearance, and devil may care attitude; he can be easily separated from the rest of the Frazier bunch. At twenty-two, he is standing on solid ground and trying to create a life of his own. However, it does get lonely sometimes. He is young but knows his days of partying and sleeping around cannot last forever. Growing up in a small town and deciding to stay there does not leave him with many options. He still hangs out with the same friends he always has and is slowly running out of options when it comes to the female population of Tyler, Texas. That is until Carrisa Abbott walks into the pet store where Vladimir works. Of course, she is accompanied by her controlling, hotheaded boyfriend Jalal, so Vladimir eases back, not wanting to step on anyone's toes. He is still a Gentleman. Little did Vladimir know, that would not be the last time he saw Carrisa; it turns out she needed help, and Vladimir was all too willing to swoop in and save the day. His good intentions find a way of backfiring on him. No good deed goes unpunished. Vladimir has started a war with his act of not-so-random-kindness. Now he needs to suit up and get ready for the battle. Good thing he has the Frazier boys to back him up._"

This Family Sucks! Sincerely Yours, Peter Frazier

"Have you ever thought that maybe you didn’t belong? Have you ever looked around at your family members and thought, there is no way I am related to these people? Both Peter Frazier and Trent Lockley thought this about the families they were born into. Two boys, the same age, miles apart. They are both from small Texas towns, born in the same hospital, on the same day. However, their lives turned out to be nothing alike. The Frazier family is a large, lively bunch. The fact that they are close-knit and share every detail of their lives with each other always seemed a little strange to Peter. Although he loves every one of his six siblings and his overly affectionate parents, he couldn’t help but feel out of place around them. Trent Lockley is an only child born to abusive parents and spent most of his life posing as a punching bag for the town drunks. As he grew into a young man, his anger grew with him. Trent got in a lot of trouble as an adolescent. He would start fights at school frequently, and once he grew up and got even bigger than his drug addict father, he started fights at home. It is the summer of 1996; the Frazier family is preparing for Peter’s High School graduation, and Peter is a little nervous because he has yet to make any plans for his future. He always figured that once he turned eighteen, he would hit the road and never look back, but now that the day is here, he isn’t so sure. The idea of leaving his family, mainly his baby sister Tallulah behind now scares him.Right before the two strangers turn eighteen, they cross paths. Trent has somehow managed to wiggle his way into the Frazier’s life, and Peter becomes suspicious of this newcomer and starts to question everything about him. The rest of the Frazier family seem to be blinded by Trent’s charm and simply adore him. A dark cloud is hovering over the once perfect household. At every turn, the Frazier family get nothing but devastating news. Peter is not sure what this Trent character is capable of, but since his arrival, everything has gone wrong, so he must have something to do with it. Peter starts to piece the puzzle together but is it too late? Once the truth is discovered, Peter starts to realize that his family doesn’t actually suck as much as he initially thought."
