Seventeen year old Lelani Orlando is a dreamer, with her head in the clouds. Photography is her escape from people, her excuse to go out and explore. And she loves it. This all changes when Lelani is diagnosed with Narcolepsy, a disease that causes her to fall in to random slumber at least a few times daily, have incredibly life-like hallucinations, and lose control of muscle groups randomly. Suddenly Lelani is seen as her High School's freak. The weirdo that can't stay awake, that sees people that aren't actually there. And she believes everything people say about her, causing herself to fall into a state of depression. When society sees you as an outcast, it can be hard to convince people you're not. And with the help of an incredibly dreamy, kind, and handsome boy called Oliver, Lelani might be able to do just that- and thus Lelani learns to love. ••• Genre: teen fiction/romance Status: ongoing

I've been following this book since the beginning and I remember falling in love with the intro and now that it's finished I'm even more in love with the storyline. This book was so beautiful, realistic and incredibly well-written. I even cried reading one chapter. Good job as always Trin. You're incredible." ~ rosie (missrosie_) "I love the professional cuddler. It takes such a hard disability (Insomnia) and turns it into such an adorable relationship. This may not be a long paragraph but The Professional Cuddler is genius and I definitely recommend it. I'm still planning on reading it again. The book is so intense, but simple and amazing." ~ Grace (-leblanczieg) Genre: short story / romance Status: completed

Johnny Orlando finally opens it to find Mackenzie whos shaking, crying, and hysterical.

In a moment of desperation, Johnny offers her a kidney - but even that might not be enough. What if Lupus takes over more of Mackenzie's organs? Will they be able to set aside their differences for the sake of Mackenzie's health, career and life in general? Furthermore, will they be able to stop themselves from falling for each other- just in case Mackenzie doesn't make it out alive? ••• Recommendations: "To me, holding on was enjoyable because of the explicit detail in it. everything was so well and carefully written, and it's really hard to find books like that nowadays. This book is also realistic in many ways and original, with all the stuff relating to the hospital." ~ Emily (jenzieheart_) "It made me smile at the fact that they loved each other so much yet they went to show that they hated each other. How Johnny cared so much he put his life on the line for Kenzie it was what brought the whole story to life. Also the details were fantastic!" ~ Kyleigh (kyleighwrites) Genre: teen fiction / romance / tragedy Status: completed
