My biggest fear is that my past will catch up with me. It haunts me at night. I must keep moving, blend in, and never look back.
Selfishly, I head back to the one place I never thought I'd return to. The one place where I can be myself. The place where I hurt everyone I loved. I'm selfish because I know returning puts them all in danger.

Author's Note:
I wrote the first draft of this book two years ago and have been editing it (off and on) ever since. This is the book that means the most to me and I thought I'd never share it with the world because I'd never be happy enough with it.
I recently heard about Wattpad and believe it is the perfect place for me to share my "baby." With the help of this community, I hope to finally share the story that means so much to me.

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete![[Completed]A Tale Of An Indian Wattpad Writer](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/1961347-256-k95278.jpg)

Fate Interrupted : a Second Chance Romance
🥇 Wattpad Amby Award Winner - 2023 Top Pick in Romance.🥇 Lauren Baker thought she'd moved on. Big city, career, husband--all checked off and on display in perfectly curated photos online--but then it all fell apart. Now she's scrubbing off every box she ever ticked, back in her hometown, waiting for a divorce, sleeping in her teenage bedroom, and face-to-face with the one man she never got over. Gio Regali likes to keep himself controlled--flashy car, private offline life, measured emotions. Love? That's off-limits. Especially now, with a mental health diagnosis that makes getting close far too risky. But seeing Ren again throws his carefully balanced world into unexpected chaos. Their attraction is immediate and impossible to ignore--just like it was all those years ago--but Gio's convinced he's too damaged to be loved. And though Ren carries the quiet grief of infertility, she's impulsive and optimistically determined to tear down Gio's stubborn walls for a second chance at what they once had. To find their way back to each other (and maybe even themselves), they have to expose old wounds, new vulnerabilities, and desires neither anticipated, learning that some second chances don't just heal two hearts--they build the family you never thought you could have.Complete
