"As war tears her country apart, one young woman struggles to find her place in life."
I'm a slow writer/updater with a busy life. English is not my native tongue, but I do my best and also have a lovely proofreader checking my writing :). I'm always happy about feedback, especially constructive critique :) Thank you for reading!
If I use weird word choices, please tell me :D
The map is hand-drawn and a cast was added. I consider adding illustrations later on.
Chapter 1 is proofread/edited so far.

The Frustrated Teenager and the Embarrassing Parent
There's a lot of teenage romance on wattpad and even though I haven't been a teenager for a long time here is my contribution. Alice's relationship with Leo is on the rocks after they attempted to lose their virginity together and didn't quite make it. After Alice's father has had an affair, her mother Maggie takes her on holiday to Greece but it's not really the kind of holiday she had in mind. I orginally posted part one as a stand alone short story but after I got a follower I started thinking about how the story might continue and I've now completed 7 chapters which is where I've stopped for now. The path of true love never runs smooth and after meeting Pieter in Greece Alice certainly has to overcome a few bumps along the way before she can get home to Leo. The cover is part of a watercolour that I did of Paleochora in Crete. Paleochora isn't exactly like the village in the story but there are some similarities.Complete
In love with a Hitman (Hitman Series Pt. 2)
This is the second book in the Hitman series, it can be read as a standalone but you'll understand characters a bit better if you read 'Falling for a Hitman' first. Get hooked on the fast paced, heart racing action, and fall for the romance. The second I heard her say my name I knew I was in too deep. I knew I'd do everything in my power to protect her. When her ex came to town I made sure to do just that. When she finished her shower that first night in my home, I fell for her. Never in a million years did I think love at first sight existed but dammit was I wrong. I have nightmares, I ran far to get away from my ex. I never thought he would find me after I changed my name and moved 1500 miles away from my hometown. When he whispered in my ear I thought I was going to die right there in the middle of the dance floor. Luckily I had big strong tattooed arms to fall into, and I never wanted to leave that embrace. We knew nothing about the other. The deceit, the lies we've told, the demons we have both left behind. Not to mention the doubt and everything that could ruin whatever future we could possibly have. She's worth it. He's worth it.Complete
Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.

Remains Brave {New War Series Book 1}
Where there's a will there's a way, and then there's Rem. A girl who lost it all after writing a book. Her writing style persuaded different groups to think and believe different things about her beliefs. The odd way her words touched the nation brought unity, which in turn made her the most revered woman in the United States. So much so that people sought her out to be the leader of the rebellion. Just shy of her twenty-first birthday, the once crazy college student leads a group of rebels through dangerous territory in an effort to escape to safer ground, only to face mountains of hardship in between. As the rebellion turns to full civil war, Rem tries her best to hold onto the last possession of her past life that she has, while juggling the relationships she builds on her journey. War changes every participant, and that's no exception for the Rebel princess.Complete
