After trying to bounce back from a horrible attack against her crew/family, Nyla is thrown into a downward spiral when their family is attacked yet again and someone even closer to her then before is taken away from her. Nyla and her family, without any hesitation, jump in with both feet to do any and everything they can to try to handle the situation, but when things get really tough, the family and crew start to clash with one another, and things start to break down from the inside out. Nyla will be tested, and there will be a test for others as their story unfolds. The once timid, shy little girl that everyone knew her to be was long gone, and the ruthless beast of a woman was now and forever present and ready for whatever came her way. The time span from when Nyla was first thrusted into this life hasn't been long at all, but the knowledge and street smarts that she's learned in that short amount of time has forced her to grow up and act well beyond her years. Gone are the ways of her childhood phase and to stay are the days where her womanhood reigns.

Cursed Legacy


Book Description

Fate Always Finds a Way... No matter where I go, the tattered red threads of the Moirai follow me. If they have their way, it’s only a matter of time and I'll be joining the early grave of so many Blackwoods before me. What’s worse, the curse is expanding and threatening to take more lives. Expelled from his birthright for loving me, Wade is now a completely mortal, and vulnerable human. If he dies, there’s no coming back as an angel because not even a necromancer can save him when fate and death conspire.

Scene Shift


Book Description

This book showcases contemporary US set design by engaging designers with one another, pairing dialogue and imagery from varied experiences and practices. Within these pages, we witness an expansion of traditional theatrical set design, evolving fluidly to include such work as performance art, installation, community events, and exhibitions, to name a few. The design and the designer have a story to tell that goes beyond the immediate collaboration. Readers get an intimate perspective providing insight into a somewhat mysterious world that has been under-valued and under-evaluated. The conversations include designers who are commercially successful, artistically successful, and those who have existed on the fringes of the theatre world whose work is not necessarily definable, and therefore not as visible. These thirty designers provide the next generation a view into a variety of career paths while also validating and encouraging an appreciation of their diverse artistic accomplishments.
