Picture Perfect {BOOK 1}
They say you can't go home again. But what if home is the man you can't forget? Luca Romano left his small town and its narrow-minded whispers behind, trading them for a life of vibrant freedom as an openly gay photographer. But when a family emergency forces him back, he's thrust into a world of memories he'd rather forget. The last person he wants to see is Daniel his former best friend, his first love, and a secret chapter of his past he's desperately tried to burn. Daniel has painstakingly built the perfect, "normal" life: a respectable job, a house with a white picket fence, and a kind, loving fiancée. He's locked away his desires, his truth, and the boy he once was, convincing himself it was all just a phase. He's safe. He's straight. Or so he thought until one glimpse of Luca shatters the illusion completely.

Plan Of Seduction
"I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it. There will be mature LGBT+ content, so if you don't want to read those chapters or this story, skip it.

A collective work of poetry and one short story. They tell a story of maturing and what it is to come of age in this new world that we live in. It talks about what it is to be a queer person right now in America. FYI: this was meant to be read on a phone. The cover is a picture of me as a child, before I would come to understand pain and heartbreak. That is why I chose that picture, to show the beginning of my life long journey. Just a kid living, unbeknownst to him, in a crazy world. Contains mature themes and language!Complete
When Freedom Whispers
When Freedom Whispers A romance born of rebellion, faith, and the fire to choose yourself. When Freedom Whispers isn't just about love-it's about the cost of being seen. A fantasy of the soul. A literary journey through yearning, identity, and the quiet ache of becoming. Jaeon has always been too quiet. Too observant. Too much. In a world where silence is safety and obedience is love, he learns to shrink-until he no longer knows which parts of him are real, and which were surrendered just to survive. Told in six parts, drifting between waking and dream, When Freedom Whispers is not just the story of two boys falling in love. It's the story of one boy searching for himself- For the right to feel. To question. To be held without flinching. As reality begins to blur and longing takes on a life of its own, Jaeon is drawn toward something-someone-that feels like truth. But truth doesn't always speak in daylight. Sometimes, it arrives in dreams. In silence. In the warmth of a hand that finally stays. This is a fantasy- Of intimacy that defies labels. Of love that reshapes reality. Of healing that begins in the places no one sees. This is a romance- But not the kind you've read before.Complete

It's a hand reaching through the darkness. And if you're holding it, you've already begun to heal.Complete
