The Games We Play is a revamp book of my past book, Seven Minutes in Heaven.
Lawson "Law" Cort has two things he never lets go of-his journal and his tight-knit group of friends. Life in high school is all about balance: navigating track meets, dodging drama, and occasionally saving his best friend Trey from ridiculous situations. But when Layla, the girl from his past, suddenly walks back into his life, everything changes.
What was supposed to be just another school year turns into a whirlwind of late-night confessions, reckless choices, and a game night that spirals into something much deeper than anyone expected.
In a world where love is complicated and secrets run deep, how far will Law go to hold onto the people who mean the most?
Perfect for fans of coming-of-age drama, friendships that feel real, and the kind of romance that sneaks up on you when you least expect it.

But in a game where everyone's keeping secrets, someone's bound to get hurt. Some lines aren't meant to be crossed. Others are just waiting to be broken.

Dating on Paper
Fake dating was supposed to be simple, temporary... just on paper. ────୨ৎ──── Aria never planned on pretending to be in love-especially not with Christian Fell. He's sarcastic, emotionally closed-off, and way too good at pretending he doesn't care. She's cautious, soft-hearted, and already carrying enough feelings she refuses to unpack. The deal was clear: - Two months. - Public affection. - No real feelings. Easy, right? Except rumors spread faster than truth, exes don't stay in the past, and lines blur when fake kisses start feeling a little too real. When Aria finds herself caught between friendships breaking, secrets unraveling, and a contract that's about to expire, she has to face the one thing she's been avoiding. What happens when pretending isn't pretending anymore? Dating on Paper is a slow-burn, high school romance filled with messy emotions, fake dating gone wrong, jealousy, parties that end badly, and two people who keep lying to themselves for way too long. Because some love stories start with feelings. And some start with a signature.
