Susan Mallery Fool's Gold Series Novels & Stories

Gail ran her fingers over the leather bound spines of the books. None of the golden embossed titles called to her as books that might help her break Joel’s curse. Residual anger still stewed deep in her stomach as she remembered her conversation with Aunt Rose. After all this time, only now did Gail discover her aunt had a small library filled with books about magic.

Aurora POV “Poppy, can this please be the last shop for today?” I asked with a little bit of tiredness in my voice as we had been walking around the mall for the last 5 hours going into different shops. I had only brought a couple of new outfits and some more books to add to my collection, I even managed to locate a 1st edition Pride and Prejudice in an old bookstore. “No Aurora, we still need to get you a dress for your party on Saturday.” She replied in a hurried voice as they approached the doorway of a large boutique that had the most beautiful ball gowns in the window and Aurora knew this was going to be painful trying on all these fitted dresses. As they walked into the boutique a tall

HIS OTHER HALF BOOK 2: FALCON FAMILY SERIES Sylvia Falcon, an outcast among San Francisco's elite, battles against the suffocating expectations of her glamorous lineage. Estranged from her wealthy and powerful relatives, she breaks free from their shadows and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Determined to make her mark, she secures a job as a personal assistant to the enigmatic CEO, Jason Cartwright, hoping to find love and acceptance in the world she has chosen for herself.

The teacher, shaking, nodded with fear. "Yes, we checked. There’s a hole in the fence. Lily crawled through it and never came back." I immediately made a phone call, pulling up citywide surveillance footage. Lenora finally arrived, and in the back seat of her car lay Nathan, bruised and battered. "Lily is missing, and Lenora still remembers to bring her lover. Truly, a bond stronger than blood!" Morgan gritted his teeth as he mocked Lenora. Lenora’s face turned pale, but she ignored his comment.

I snatch my hand away from him and quickly snake vines around him, holding him in place. “What are you doing,” he cries out. Dad, uncle Mark and Aspen stop what they are doing and stand next to me. “What is wrong Maliyah,” asks Aspen. I reach up to the painting and touch the jewels in the bottom right corner. I push an emerald jewel and out pops the dagger with sapphires in the hilt. “You won’t be able to break the spell without me,” Luca cries out. “Why did you lie,” I ask. “You would’ve killed me the instant I lifted the spell.”

I am trying to determine which two are worse: Riley and Sapphire, Mathius and Sapphire, or Sapphire and Luke. I agree with Riley when he says it is Luke’s fault that my precious jewel has picked up the more colorful aspects of the Aussie language. Riley and Mathius argue with Sapphire like siblings, which I guess they are. Riley might not be her sibling by blood, but you wouldn’t know that with how they give each other shit. We have gone back to acting as we did before discovering everything. I still don’t like the idea of my precious jewel not having protection, but I need to trust her and her ability to protect herself. I know we are more aware of our surroundings and everyone we enc

"Maeve, you're joking, right?" "Find her! Find her now!" he roared at the empty room. A short time later, his Beta returned with news. "Alpha... we found this in a trash can at the private airfield outside the city." An evidence bag was held out to him. Inside, lying silently, was her phone, turned off. And the cheap moonstone bracelet he’d bought her as an afterthought. Staring at the bracelet, the air left Darian’s lungs. It finally hit him.

I gathered my courage and said emphatically, "I hope you won't go back on your promise." Felicia's eyes darkened. It was almost as if she couldn't believe that I'd stop putting up a fight so easily when I'd been on a rampage just moments ago. I stared at her face, noting the shifts in her expression. After a long, tense silence, she fished out her phone and unlocked the screen. She was still using the cheap phone case that I'd bedazzled myself. The liquid glitter inside the casing was like a shimmering rainbow, our initials swirling with it. Looking at the phone case now, I realized just how at odds it looked with Felicia's extravagant get-up.

If they were a crumbling house after Andrea left, Stanley turned it into rubble. He would never forgive those who betrayed his mother. I backed him up without hesitation and pushed harder. The Pages were a ghost in our world now, their names erased. I would not forgive traitors either. So, Shane sending a wedding gift was a shock. Inside the box lay a dazzling purple diamond ring. A forgotten memory from when I was eighteen came flooding back. It was blurry, but we were hunched over a practice test, me pointing out Shane's mistakes. I was head over heels, dreaming of a future with him while circling answers.

She was terrified that I would find out the truth: that for the past three months, she was not recovering from a car accident at all, but vacationing overseas with Nicholas. "Nathan, you've really gone too far!" she snapped. "Do you think using tactics like this will earn everyone's trust? "I originally didn't want to bring up your scandals in front of everyone, but since you started spreading such despicable rumors about my relationship with Mr. Hoffman, I don't need to spare your dignity anymore! "Bring out the evidence I've collected of Nathan secretly selling off company shares and assets!" Gwendolyn clearly came prepared. With a single phone call, a lawyer walked in and placed a thick s
