| BOOK 1 of The Soulmate Duet | Jaelle has had a hard life. She's been fighting for most of it. It's all she knows. It's all she's used to. Bruised knuckles and adrenaline. But eventually the fighting gets old, the adrenaline wears off and all that's left is a bone deep ache that she can't get rid of. She didn't expect a break in the madness, a sense of peace in the storm, but that's what happens when Anthony pops into her life. Anthony is miserable. He's jumping from one dead-end job to the next, with no stable end in sight. His existence is so consumed by loneliness that he'd given up hope of ever finding his other half. Until he met Jaelle. Inexplicably, the two form an unprecedented connection. It should be easy for them, but it isn't. Jaelle isn't able to easily give out her trust, Anthony's friends are skeptical of her, and Jaelle's past is an obstacle that Anthony just can't seem to get around. Their love was never supposed to happen, but now that it has, they're in danger of losing it all. EST. 2019 (Rewritten 2022, 2023, 2025) PUBLISHED: 06/27/26 COMPLETED: cover by: @summerafterglow

Eliott Lockwood was raised to keep up appearances. To the world, he's the easy-going Lockwood - always smiling, always joking, always the life of the party. The man who seems to have it all. But behind the charm is a man quietly coming apart. For years, Eliott devoted himself to his brother, making himself useful in every way he knew how. Now his brother has a family of his own, and Eliott is left staring down a truth he's spent most of his life avoiding: He doesn't know who he is when nobody needs him. That is, until he meets her. From the moment they meet, she sees right through every carefully crafted version of him. For the first time in years, Eliott feels something. For the first time in years, he wants something. The persona he's so carefully crafted begins to crack, and what's left is a man walking a thin line between desire and obsession. Mari is the first thing that's felt like his in a very long time. And Eliott has never been good at letting go of the things he loves. MARI Mari Santos expected moving to a new town to be simple. A new job. A quiet apartment. A completely new chapter of her life. Simple. Until she met Eliott Lockwood. Everyone seems convinced he's harmless. The charming smile, the easy laugh, the effortless confidence. It's a performance everyone has bought into. Mari isn't interested in the mask. Beneath the easy smiles and effortless confidence is a man who spends so much time taking care of everyone else that nobody notices when he's falling apart. And the more time she spends with him, the harder it becomes to look away, because underneath all that chaos is a man desperate to be seen. And Mari may be the first person willing to look.

Jeremiah is a lot of things. A great big brother, a good son, and a hell of a fireman. It wasn't until he laid eyes on Cecelia Blair, that he realized he wasn't a good man. Cecelia has an entire life that doesn't involve him, but he doesn't care. She is the love of his life and he spent years searching for her. He wouldn't let something like her having a boyfriend get in his way. Seeing her again, was fate. He knew it. They were always supposed to be together. He thinks it was written somewhere very long ago. The only problem? She doesn't know it. Jeremiah's not sure why he remembers their past life and she doesn't. He's not sure why he's been cursed to ache and long and she hasn't, but that's okay. It doesn't matter. What matters is that he found her, what matters is that they can be together again. And he swears that he'll do whatever it takes to keep her this time because he wasn't so lucky the last time. Even if it means blowing up both of their lives in the process. How do you even tell someone that you loved them in another life? That you love them in this one? That you'll love them in all the ones after? He's not sure. But, he will. She's the only person he'll ever love and he's about to make it everyone's problem. ♾️ Started: July 2024 Published: Feb 17, 2026 Completed:

cover by @summerafterglow 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: 07/11/2026 highest rankings: #2 bwwm #4 ongoing

Sunny was never meant to survive in Alessandro's world - in their world - but she was his. He was hers. Heart and soul and every blood-soaked piece in between. It was thinly masked devotion, and it was ultimately their downfall. The day he lost her changed everything. His life has always been defined by power, bound by duty, and paid for in sacrifice. He had no room for weakness, not anymore. Grief turned him into a man he no longer recognized. Duty demanded he marry another, while love made sure he never stopped mourning the woman he lost. Years later, fate has given them a second chance. But the past is a blade they can't stop falling on. As he confronts the betrayal that tore them apart, Alessandro is forced to question everything he thought he knew about loyalty, forgiveness, and love.
