What happens when the star baseball player hits a home run into the art studio window? ***** All Sadie Lane Garner needed to make herself happy was a canvas and paintbrush. With copious projects due and little studio time, she volunteers to clean the art building in exchange for after-hour use of the university art supplies. But, she doesn't foresee the loud baseball games outside the workshop windows, the near-perfect view of the field, or the sight of devious, dark-haired athlete, Elijah Preston, known for his charm and home runs. And it doesn't take long for Sadie to find out he also has the perfect view of her. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Completed, 80-85k words Stand Alone novel [previously named The Art of Falling] Cover photo from Pexels edited on Canva Copyright of Anna Steffey All rights reserved.

The man in front of me gave me a lopsided smirk, "Feisty. I like that." I rolled my eyes, sipped my drink and narrowed my eyes at the bartender, "Shouldn't you be doing your job?" "There's other things I could be doing," he responded with a wink. He started pouring another drink, "Got a name?" "Audrey." The man gave me a wicked grin, "I'm Nathan."

#1 in Teen Fiction Blaze Ryder is everything Alaska feared. He is eyes and embraces and fallings stars, chocolate and marshmallows, the fizz on soda on the tongue. He is wind and hands and lips on your hair; he is a hundred kisses to hide the bruises, the flowers of summer blooming together. Ink and paper, the smell of old books and cornered nooks. The teens standing together, so close that their shadows merge into one, and the blood dripping from her hands to the concrete floor. It's a chaotic love story, really. * * * "And you know, some people are good at love, and some of them are good at being in love. They are two different things. Being in love is the romantic part, sex all the time, midday naps in the sheets, the jokes, the laughs, the long conversations with no pauses, overwhelming thoughts, separation, and anxiety - just the best sides of two people. But love? Love begins when the excitement starts to fade away; the stress in life sets in, the sex becomes a chore; the tears, the sadness, the arguments come into the picture. The worst sides of these two people are shown. But you know, after all that, I would still want you in my life, and I know you would want me too. So I love you, and I'm not afraid of loving you," Alaska says into the phone, pouring her heart out.

Set in a flower shop in Manhattan, New York City, Snooki takes aim in finally seeking for thrills in a new place that she couldn't find in Manila. Something she thought would quicken her heartbeat, apart from her caffeine intake. One blooming day, she found an archer with a bow and glittering arrows that aimed at her heart. And in just a wink, he hit bullseye. While Snooki was in a trance brought upon by the arrows, she was also pursuing the love of her senile flower boss and her old love interest. The said love interest was, get this, the uncle of her very own eye-candy! How frickin' cool fate was for it to devise their lives like that? She thought, it was like a double love, double fun! Ngunit sa gitna ng kawalan ng pag-asa ni resident blooming girl, Snooki, sa kanyang sariling love-life ay hindi pa rin niya sinukuan ang paborito niyang golden would-be should-be lovers. As she felt her own love's fate immobility, she was already leaning to just settle and be the independently happy gal that she always was. Yet what she didn't know was that, from the very beginning, she was already glittering in the eyes of her archer. In the heart of the overcrowded Manhattan, there she was, someone whom he only saw. It was only up to him to pluck up the courage (which he totally didn't have, by the way!) and poetically tell her how he felt. Or else, they would not happen. Or else, New York would suck. Or not. We'll see. This book is part of a series. Something That Will Last (Ceaseless #1) Something That Glitters (Ceaseless #2) Something About Forever (Ceaseless #3) Rough draft; errors ahead; read at your own risk (maybe get it on with that li'l caffeine intake before braving the mess that is starine)

Hindi si Eunice ang klase ng babaeng naniniwala sa forever kahit pa taken siya. At kahit pa apat na taon na siyang may boyfriend, sobrang bitter pa rin niya pagdating sa usapang love life. Nang magtagpo ang landas nila ng idol niyang romance novelist na si Gregory Troye, hindi niya inaasahang matatawid ang mga limitasyong ibinigay niya sa sarili para lang sa inaakala niyang tunay na pagmamahal. Sa sandaling halos ipamukha na sa kanya ng tadhana na mali siya ng mga naging desisyon sa buhay, mapaninindigan pa kaya niya ang paniniwalang walang happy ending kung ang inaakala niyang ending ay magdudulot sa kanya ng tunay na kahulugan ng salitang "happy?" Para matapos ang kuwentong hindi naman tungkol sa dalawang taong nagmamahalan, pero tungkol sa love; ano nga ba ang kailangan niyang gawin para matapos ang kanyang pinapangarap na collab? At sa di-inaasahang pagsasama ng dalawang taong hindi naman ganoong nagtagal, mahahanap niya sa di-inaasahang pagkakataon ang perpektong kasagutan sa tanong na "Naranasan mo na bang magmahal?"
