"His eyes told a story I was yet to understand but... one I felt destined to discover."
Living a solitary life is one of the many things Grace Mayfeild has become accustomed to while living on a farm in a small, southern town. She's quiet, reserved, and often more absorbed in her own thoughts than the world around her. Yet, her mind isn't only a place to escape to but also where bleak, looming thoughts seem to draw her into dark places.
So, as it seems, Grace lives in a very still world where exhilaration is rare and hopeful thoughts are unreachable.
Yet... alike a rubber band held quivering between two outstretched fingers, Grace's still world is on the brink of an alarming snap. When she's faced with a single choice to test her un-awakened bravery, everything will change. Moreover, each choice she makes will begin to draw her into an unknown and frankly, unbelievable world of power, enchantment, and... love.
Grace Mayfeild is about to realize that nothing is as it seems and defining moments in your life come without warning - but certainly reason.

When We Meet Again
They met when they were six - a shy girl with flower pins in her hair and a boy with a grin too bright for the classroom. From sharing crayons and chocolate bars under the mango tree, Grace and Danielle grew up side by side, two halves of one beautiful friendship. But as the years passed, friendship turned into something softer... deeper. Grace fell first - and she fell hard. When she finally confessed, their story almost became something more. Almost. One late-night message changed everything. And just like that, the girl who dreamed of forever and the boy who once promised always became strangers. Eight years later, Grace is twenty-one - a business student with new dreams, new friends, and a heart she swore she'd never risk again. But fate has a habit of bringing the past back when you least expect it. Because one ordinary afternoon, she sees him again - her first love - standing in the same university canteen. The same smile. The same eyes. The same boy who once broke her heart. As old memories resurface and unspoken feelings linger, Grace must decide whether love that once faded can ever bloom again. Is there such a thing as second chances? Or are some stories meant to stay in the past?Complete
Even the Stars Forgot Her Name.
Even the Stars Forgot Her Name She wasn't trying to disappear. It just started happening-one forgotten moment at a time. At seventeen, Haley feels like the world has quietly moved on without her. She goes to school, she comes home, she scrolls through life like it's happening to someone else. Her parents are always too busy, her old friends have new lives, and no one seems to notice how quiet she's become-or how much it hurts. She used to dream big. Now she just dreams of being seen. Then one night, in a haze of insomnia and scrolling, Haley finds an anonymous online forum where people share the things they're too scared to say out loud. And something about their pain-the raw honesty, the way it mirrors her own-pulls her in. As the nights stretch on and the stars stay silent, Haley starts to connect with others who feel like ghosts in their own lives. In their stories, she finds flickers of light. Maybe she isn't invisible. Maybe she isn't broken beyond repair. Maybe being lost doesn't mean you'll never be found. This is a quiet, aching story about loneliness, unseen pain, and the fight to remember who you are-especially when the world forgets.Complete

The Silence Between Heartbeats
She never noticed the eyes that followed her through shadowed alleyways, across crowded streets, and even in the dim corners of her favorite café.

His obsession was a slow-burning fire, consuming reason until love twisted into something far more dangerous. Every smile she gave someone else felt like a theft; every moment she spent away from him was an unbearable wound. He knew her habits, her fears, her dreams-details she never told a soul. But the more he watched, the more he wanted to own her completely. And when a man like him decides he can't live without you, escape isn't an option...it's only a matter of time before the hunter steps out of the shadows.Complete
