Her mother's colleague has kindly offered them shelter, and Norabel spends most of her days brooding in her bedroom. Leaving her hometown to live with strangers was definitely not how Norabel expected her senior year at university to go. During this stay in her temporary home, Norabel meets Ethan, the son of her mother's colleague. An unlikely friendship begins to bloom between the two of them. Norabel hates this country with a burning passion for what it has put her through, whereas Ethan still finds Haiti beautiful despite the chaos that has set in. After nursing a broken heart, Norabel had closed the door to love for almost a year. However, unexpected feelings start to rise when she begins to spend time with Ethan, and he seems to make it a mission to care for her well-being. Ethan has a secret burden of his own, but he's determined to make Norabel shed her pessimism during the short time they'll be cohabiting. He's an incurable romantic, and Norabel has definitely caught his attention. Can a mutual journey of hope bring them love in a country torn apart by violence? ꨄ︎𝑯𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑹𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈ఌ︎ #1 ɪɴ ʜᴀɪᴛɪ 𝙼𝚊𝚢 2023

Oxygen is poison. Her life has no direction and she knows. Things couldn't possibly be worse. Elise Santana has been living with her much older brother and his family for nearly a decade, and she doesn't have a plan for when she's inevitably kicked out after graduating high school. That's not her biggest problem, though. She's more worried about making her life more interesting. When a bizarre theory about 'noxious oxygen' enters her mind during a news interview, she blurts it out to world. This leads to a wild string of events that kills her old, mundane life-and replaces it with one she's not quite sure she can handle. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Contents within the book should not be taken as fact unless research states otherwise. Enjoy! Also, this is a rough draft! I plan to go back, edit parts and do small rewrites to make the story flow better and make more sense. Enjoy the barely edited, mess this is so far c: credit to @AlexandraLing2000 for the cover <3
