Nearing the End


and like always it seems my ideas and what I actually end up doing are the opposite, and even though next year I know for a fact things in this matter will get better--mostly because writing books is what I want to do, and to do that I need to actually work at it. Not saying that I don't, but I'm lazy and lazy people have to push themselves to do things nonlazy people don't. 

I'm not in any way a workaholic, I never will be, even though I have a stranded in working, and I do what I must, I'm a lay back enough person that it doesn't take up everything. I'm very good at switching off.

This being said, it's why I have already failed in my goal. Or maybe more, that I gave up trying. I found out what I wanted to know.

                Synopsis
Ever since an accident took away her memory, Miss Elena Whitney can’t recall the secrets of her past. All she knows is that with her mysterious benefactor, Archer, Lord Black, returning to London at the behest of Queen Victoria, she should seize the chance to get some answers. But the dangerously handsome Lord Black is not exactly the man Elena imagined.

Archer, a member of the immortal Shadow Guards, has been summoned to London to eliminate an exceptionally evil threat: Jack the Ripper. With his prey brutally killing London’s East End prostitutes, Archer must stop the Ripper before the murderer’s soul slips beyond his grasp, and do so while protecting his beautiful young ward, Elena, whom he spared from death two years earlier. But with a wave of panic spreading across London, Archer fears that Elena is his weakness—a distraction he can’t afford, especially since she’s likely to become the Ripper’s next target.
