🏆x6 Awards! 🥇 First Place for most tragic character: Liliah, in the Pumpkin Picnic Awards. ✨️Second Place for Best Cover in the Cassiopeia Mini Awards. Proud to say What Was Held made the short list in The Original Muse Awards! I'm Liliah. Sixteen, almost seventeen. I hate being me. Why? Ten reasons: 1. I'm stuck in Muxleigh - a suffocating seaside town. 2. My mum only cares when it affects her. 3. My step-dad runs our house on fear. 4. I'm failing the person I love most: my six-year-old sister, Forsythia. 5. I don't know who I am... or why I'm here. 6. I attacked the worst boy in town - now I'm hated, and he's still worshipped. 7. My vice? It's leaving scars. 8. My mental health? Apparently I belong in a psych ward, ask Oriella. 9. Bexmoore was meant to be a fresh start. It wasn't. 10. I had two chances at something real... and I ruined them both. I'm at breaking point. Hiding in the dirt, literally, I'm not joking. What I hate the most? How alone I feel. Maybe telling my story means someone else won't feel like this. Before it's too late.

For years, Meeka has written love stories that belonged to other people. As a ghostwriter at Mythos Publishing House, she's helped countless books find success while her own name remained invisible. But now, she's finally ready to step out of the shadows and publish a story under her own name. The problem? The story is inspired by the boy she secretly loved for five years. And that boy has just walked back into her life. When Agastya, her former crush and the one person who never knew how she felt, unexpectedly becomes part of her world again, Meeka finds herself caught between the past she's trying to forget and the future she's trying to build. With meddling friends, a cat that seems to hate her on sight, an adorable puppy, workplace chaos, and a novel that begins attracting more attention than she ever expected, Meeka discovers that some stories refuse to stay on the page. Because sometimes the hardest story to write isn't fiction. It's your own. A heartwarming slow-burn romance about first loves, second chances, friendship, and finding the courage to finally put your name on the things you love.
