Phenom

Up-and-coming professional wrestler Georgia Beysuk has lived in the shadow of her superstar father—a situation not helped by her employment at the wrestling promotion he runs. Being the boss’s daughter was a good way into the business, but in the last few years, she’s been frustrated with his micromanaging and anxious to guide her career herself. When her dad announces his retirement, she finally has a chance to see how she’ll do without him—if she can get the new managers to see past her father’s reputation. The excitement of a new start gets the wind taken out of it by George’s dad’s sudden passing. Now she’s not only fighting for her career against managers who only see her as a copy of her father, but to protect what her dad left behind.

Between the managers and the sudden loss of her dad, George’s personal and professional life are falling to pieces. She’s sure her career is doomed until a mysterious figure decides to help her—by dropping a sandbag on one of her rivals. What should be a catastrophe gets turned to Goerge’s advantage by Raquel, the new bosses’ boss and a childhood friend of George’s. Instead of her walking papers, George gets a new character direction: her stagnant good guy persona is about to become the biggest bad in the women’s division. Which is just what the mysterious figure wanted.

With the help of her new, strange ally, George’s star rises. But her newfound success comes with costs. Dropping a sandbag was just a start—George’s benefactor is willing to do whatever it takes to see her become champion and protect the Beysuk family legacy. And, as thrilling as George finds being the bad guy, people are getting hurt. Her career and its success are the closest ties she has left to her dad and his legacy. But what is legacy worth if you have to tear apart your friends to keep a hold on it?

Family Business

Ness wants nothing more than to be part of their family’s business—not the family grocery store, but the actual business: hunting and exterminating monsters and ghosts in their little Louisiana town. But their uncle, a legendary hunter and the family boss, isn’t convinced they have the patience and instinct to do more than run the register.

In an effort to prove themself, Ness tries to track down the source of a monstrous artifact. What they find instead is evidence that a monster summoner—one of their family’s old enemies—have set up shop in town, and now they know about Ness. With the possibility to keep Ness out of the fight gone, Ness’s uncle has no choice but to let them help on a probationary basis. 

Between their exciting new job and their budding relationship with the alluring new girl at school, Ness’s life is finally moving in the right direction. But the monsters are getting stronger, and the attacks are hitting closer to home. If Ness really wants to be a hunter, they must soon decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice for it, because the summoner won’t stop without a fight—one that could spell the end of the family business and even Ness’s life.
