"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players." - Shakespeare Odani Astrid Kensington, cheerful literature professor. MEETS Marie Elizabeth Fernandez, Ethics professor and the Ice Queen of Veridan University. Some people believe love is fate. But some... Well, let's just say that some make fate questionable.

It was supposed to stay casual. Harper Hannah Russell was only meant to stay in the Philippines for a short while - just enough time to visit family before flying back to the U.K. to continue her life as a well-known fashion stylist. Falling for someone was never part of the plan. Especially not for Luna Kylie Carter - a quiet, emotionally guarded detective she met through a drunken dare and one dangerously unforgettable kiss inside a local bar. What started as playful banter, late-night conversations, and tension-filled encounters slowly became something far more difficult to escape. But with Harper's return to London getting closer and feelings growing deeper than either of them expected, they're eventually forced to confront the one thing they tried so hard to ignore from the very beginning: Some people are only meant to stay temporarily. The problem is- Sometimes they don't feel temporary at all.

LOCKED IN SERIES #1

Jaxian Drex "Jaxie" Malverez is the savage, pink-leather-clad drummer of Auxeria High, an openly gay rockstar whose life is a masterpiece of sharp edges. His world is governed by a meticulous order where only his music and his attraction to men have a place, leaving no room for the "maarte" drama of the female species. Kaelira Vynne "Kae" Castellano, the soft, jolly, and hopelessly naive transferee from Europe, is the walking violation of his peace and the ultimate distraction to his focus. But when her "conyo" charm and constant habit of getting into trouble trigger a fierce, possessive protectiveness in Jax, his carefully constructed identity begins to fracture. The heart he swore only beat for boys now thunders uncontrollably for the girl he deemed too slow, too messy, and too irritating to ever notice. Is Jaxian's rhythm as fixed as his savage reputation, or will he let a girl be the one to finally break his setlist? What happens when the ultimate annoyance becomes the only music loud enough to drown out his own rules? Second Book of Vexera Series. Dual Point of View.

Even The Moon Lies

Perfection can be lonely. For Sophie Jane Ellis, admiration comes easy, but connection doesn't. She moves through her world with grace and precision, earning respect yet keeping everyone at a distance. Behind the polished image lies a quiet pressure she can never escape, and a life carefully shaped by the weight of unspoken expectations. Then she meets someone who changes everything. Rylee Quinn Ramos has a lightness about her - effortless, warm, and endlessly magnetic. Friendships come to her without effort, laughter follows her everywhere, and she moves through life without the burden of perfection. Where Sophie holds back, Rylee draws people in, and where Rylee is free, Sophie feels confined. Their paths collide in ways neither anticipated. What starts as competition slowly turns into something far more complicated. Beneath the teasing and rivalry grows a quiet pull they can't deny, one that threatens to break down walls both have built. In a world where pride rules and appearances matter, some rivalries aren't meant to end. Some are just the beginning.
