Coming into the office, I looked at my desk and found a to-do list taped to my computer monitor. I loved that my boss was old school and always wrote out everything they wanted me to do. This meant I could multitask and not have to look at my phone twenty times a day.

The Theif (50 book series) 1/1
The world has changed, and the rich live in mansions where they celebrate the suffering of the poor. I watched people suffer and have worked my way up to help the poor in my community. What the community does not know is that I became a modern-day Robin Hood, taking from the rich who are stealing from the poor.
The Market (13 book series) 1/1
In our small town, under the shade of massive oak trees, is my open-air market. I had a small, tiny home at the back of the property. This home was not only my office but my home. During the day, I rented out spots for people to host yard sales, and at night, I rented to food trucks to set up to sell food. But with any business, there is always a story.
Front Desk (12 book series) 1/1
I worked at the front desk of a mysterious company that operated twenty-four hours a day. When most people would head home, I would come in and man the front desk. My boss encouraged me to read, write, or watch TV on my laptop, and to only answer questions if they came up and asked the question correctly. By the end of my first week, I realized what he meant.
Taxi Service (25 Book Series) 1/1
My Grandfather was a taxi driver. When he passed away, he left me his condo, three cabs, and his business. I learned quite fast that my Grandfather had a unique clientele, and I learned all about the people he used to drive.
Outside the Window (3 book series) 1/1
Sitting in my window, I watched the world go by. Lifting my leg a bit, I could feel the feeling coming back to my legs. The problem was that I had no memories of what landed me in the wheelchair. The problem with this is that I believe my family had something to do with this.
At The End of The Road (25 Book Series) 1/1
I stopped at a gas station trying to find my new home. The attendant raised his eyebrows as he said, "Take a right at the stoplight and go to the end of the road."
Thanking him, I followed the directions and arrived at the home that my Grandma had lived in all her life. Chuckling to myself, I said, "Home more like a haunted castle."
When I received the letter from her lawyer, I had just ended my engagement to my fiancé, Sam. I had hoped that as our wedding approached, he would put boundaries in place with his family. Six months before the wedding, he had asked if his parents could come with us on our honeymoon. He could not understand why I got upset about them being in the same villa as us. I told him that if he could not put boundaries up, then we needed to stop planning the wedding. The next day I came home to our apartment, and all of his belongings were gone. The next day, I received the letter from Grandma's lawyer stating that I was her sole beneficiary and that I inherited her property to do as I wanted. He even included a video of the estate that showed me everything I would need to know. With a fully furnished estate, I decided it was time to start the business I had always dreamed of. That was to create a boutique hotel. But the lawyer told me the building is a giant puzzle and there are a bunch of mysteries that will be solved in each and every room. The lawyer also mentioned that there was a small store set up at the beginning of the driveway for the things I did not want to keep.
Pulling up, I said, "Home sweet home."
Pulling along the driveway, I saw the store and continued on to the castle. I pulled up to the front steps and took out my key. Going to the door, I walked in and looked around. I almost expected to hear my parents walk through, claiming who is better at tennis and challenging each other.

The Theater (12 book series) 1/1
Looking around as I walked to the office of the historic theatre, I counted my blessings that I had this job. This theater has been in our city for over two hundred and forty years and the owner said that there were going to be new and exciting things happening. I never thought the plan he was making was going to be this crazy. I couldn't wait to see what would happen, now I am worried that we may be in over our heads.
The Tunnel (5 part series) 1/1
In my town, there is a tunnel that people will go into, but some never come out. When I took this job, I was told there would be an opportunity for advancement. What I didn't realize was what my job really was and what secrets were beneath my feet in the tunnels below.
Mystic (5 Book series) 1/1
I can see things most cannot. I see the future and ghosts. I run my small mystical shop in St. Augustine, Florida. Some people say I am a fraud, that is, until I give them the information they needed the most.
Stalker (3 part series) 1/1
There is a stalker in our town. He has also taken the lives of five of his victims. Now he has set his eyes on my cousin, and I will stop him.
The Path (3 Book Series) 1/1
I was hired as a midday attendant on what is known as the beach path. This path is a seaside path that stretches two miles. When I was hired for this job, I had to sign a form that I would follow all ten rules. When I asked Mr Franks, "What would happen if we broke the rules?"
He snorted and said, "You will be stuck on the path forever."
I made a few copies of the rules and placed them in my locker.
Rules
1. Have all items needed in your push cart. Follow the master list and never run out. If you run low go tp the nearest hut and restock. Running out could be fatal.
2. If sea fog comes in before the end of your shift. Never answer the voices in the fog.
3. Never leave the path. If someone begs you to leave the path, apologize and say your manager will not let you break the rules.
4. Do not go on a walk with anyone. If someone tries to walk with you on the path, Stop and state you must stay at this location. They will leave.
5. If it gets dark during the day or pitch black at night, climb under the back of the cart, close your eyes and count to one hundred. When you open your eyes after 100 the light will return.
6. If the sound goes quiet around you, go to the nearest hut and lock the door till the sound returns. If you hear voices calling fir a vendir while the noise is gone do not respond.
The Train Station (3 book series) 1/1
Sitting at the tourist desk at our local train station, you would be amazed at what you see. I live in Key West, Florida, and the state recently opened the over-the-water rail line. I started working here a few days a week to escape my overbearing parents. They think I send customers to their fishing business, but I actually suggest their business while I save money to escape them. My manager is a friend, and she helped me set up a secret account where a portion of my paycheck goes. When I save enough, I will disappear.
