She liked him. Quietly....deeply...in the kind of way that never asked to be seen. But he never saw her. Not as a crush. Not as a friend. Not even as someone worth understanding. He wasn't cruel. He wasn't confused. He just... never chose her. And still, she stayed. At first, it was small-just a fleeting feeling. But with time, it grew into something consuming... something that lived in every glance she stole, every message she waited for, every silence he left behind. She fell first. And then she fell harder. Until loving him became a habit she didn't know how to stop. Until one day- she did. Not all at once. Not in a dramatic goodbye. But slowly... piece by piece... she took her heart back. Or at least, that's what it looked like. Because now- she doesn't react. She doesn't wait. She doesn't care. Or maybe... she just pretends she doesn't. To him, she was just someone annoying. Someone easy to ignore. Someone who never mattered. But fate has a way of returning what was once overlooked. Because when they meet again- when her eyes no longer search for him- He notices. He pauses. He wonders. He feels. And this time... he falls. Harder than she ever did. Not slowly. Not carefully. But in the kind of way that ruins sleep and steals breath. While she- just watches, as if she feels nothing at all. 🏆 Ranked #1 in Crush 🏆 Ranked #1 in OneSidedLove 🏆 Ranked #1 in Reunion ~ a story that started with silence... and stayed. ❤️

(BOOK 2) Brittney Justice thought college would feel like freedom-- pumpkin spice lattes, cozy study sessions, and late-night laughter with her friends. Instead, it's a season of growing pains, unspoken feelings, and the quiet ache of wanting someone who's always busy chasing something else. Joshua Harden is brilliant, focused, and impossibly distracted. Between research deadlines and future plans, he swears he's doing it all for them -- even when Brittney starts to wonder if she's part of that plan anymore. As the leaves turn and the air grows colder, their connection flickers between comfort and distance. Friends pull them back toward laughter, but love keeps tugging them toward lessons they aren't ready to face. Somewhere between late-night study halls, fall festivals, and the first whispers of snow, Brittney and Joshua must decide what matters more -- ambition or affection, success or presence, fear or love.

Light and darkness, white and black, they are easy to distinguish aren't they? What about the million shades of grey in between?

They're rookies. They're rivals. They absolutely can't stand each other. Or at least... that's what they keep telling themselves.

Book 4 in the Sins of the City series. ✯✯✯ 𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐀 𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀 My father used to say this city runs on three things: fear, faith, and fresh-baked bread. He supplied two of them. And me? I'm in the laundering business. Money, not linen. They tried to poison my father. I drank his wine. They tried to burn us down. I got the family business and the third-degree memories. Now, I run the most opulent casino in Kansas City. I'm quiet. I'm polite. A respected pillar of the community. But cross me, and you'll find out real quick that elegance is just a prettier kind of violence. 𝐊𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓𝚰𝐍 My past is a black hole. I woke up with blood under my nails, a head full of static, and this art on my skin that tells a story I can't read. The scars on my body were a map of wars I don't remember fighting. These hands... they know things. Violent things. But now, they dice onions. They julienne carrots. I am just Konstantin. A ghost in the kitchen. They say hell is only a block away from heaven... but I carry the inferno in my skull.

Amara has always been the quiet one. She keeps to herself, prefers the comfort of small spaces and familiar routines, and has spent most of her life convincing herself that the path laid out for her is the right one. Love-especially the kind that changes everything-was never something she expected. Then she meets Brooklyn. Brooklyn is quiet too, but in a different way. She watches more than she speaks, feels more than she shows, and the moment she notices Amara at a bachelorette party, something about her stays in Brooklyn's mind long after the night ends. What starts as small conversations and shy glances slowly grows into something neither of them expected. For Amara, it means questioning things she's always believed about herself. For Brooklyn, it means risking her heart for the first time. As their lives begin to intertwine, they realise that sometimes love doesn't arrive loudly-it arrives softly, patiently, and all at once. And when two quiet worlds finally collide... Everything changes.
