The cave is actually an ancient, buried ship that many quickly come to believe is really Noah’s Ark. When a team of scholars, archaeologists, and filmmakers make it inside the ark for the first time, they discover an elaborate coffin in its recesses. The artifact tempts their professional curiosity; so they break it open.

Blurb: Meet Laszlo, eight-hundred-year-old demon and Hell’s least productive Curse Keeper. From his office beneath Midtown, he oversees the Drakeford Curse, which involves a pathetic family upstate and a mysterious black stone. It’s a sexy enough assignment—colonial origins, mutating victims, et cetera—but Laszlo has no interest in maximizing the curse’s potential; he’d rather sunbathe in Ibiza, quaff martinis, and hustle the hustlers on Manhattan’s subway. Unfortunately, his

Blurb: He’s too young. She’s too damaged. But since when has love played by the rules? Evie From the outside, it looks like I’ve got my life together. A place to live and a successful business sure can hide a lot, namely the scars that remain from everything I’ve lost. The truth? I’m a shattered heart bundled up in a walking shell of anxiety. Until him. Ash Abuse comes in many forms, but who would believe me if I told them I was suffering at the hands of the woman I love? I k

I dragged my feet because the story was already done in my head and I was ready for something new. This is why I'm a pantser. I need the novelty and the surpri
