Admiring the Light
Friendless and timid, Guinevere is stuck in her socially anxious shadow, content to let her sister lead and live a sheltered life. Without Natalie pushing her to break out of her comfort zone, she'd be trapped in fear. The world is scary, even her own family conflicts terrify her; she needs Natalie's support. But what happens when Natalie, her big sister, her mentor and only real friend, suddenly can't be there for every moment of her life? Lola, raised to be a hardworking farmer, when all she wants is a bit of agency over her life, the freedom to do what she wants. And yet, she is perfectly willing to let Natalie handle conversations for her. For as much as she wants to be free, she wouldn't know what to do with herself, get meticulously caught up in planning the details and never end up doing anything. And Natalie, who has no personal desires, simply living in moments and finding the best in whatever is going on. Freely engaging with her friends and helping them, as she lacks her own internal drive, the self awareness to know what she wants. After a long childhood struggle with her self esteem and valuing herself, that has become what she "needs," her coping strategy with rough situations. Being complacent with what happens to her and simply accepting, with no real goals of her own, no idea that her friends are just as directionless as she is. When health complications arise for her, and her friend group is falling apart around her as she can't guide them, she'll have to ask the essential questions that she can't simply answer in a quick sentence. The questions that she has long dismissed as unimportant. Is this what she truly wants, to be solely fulfilled by everyone else depending on her for support? And where does she draw the line? This story touches on potentially triggering content, including the use of slurs, toxic family relationships, anxiety, anger, and death. Any real people, brands or places are only used to further realize the environment.Complete

Mila Marino thrives in the quiet corners of life-books, solitude, and the anonymity of her secret online confidant, Leo. But when her extroverted best friend drags her into the glittering chaos of a masquerade sex party, Mila's carefully guarded world collides with **Oliver Cane**-the sharp-tongued, infuriatingly charismatic playboy from *Fuckboy Chronicles: Book 1*.

Mila loathes everything he represents... until their fiery clashes ignite a spark neither can extinguish. After a disastrous first encounter, their paths keep crossing.

Worse yet, she can't deny the magnetic pull between them-even as she clings to her growing feelings for Leo, the tender, anonymous texter who *gets* her. But when a shocking revelation ties Leo's words to Oliver's voice, Mila's heart wars with her instincts. *How can the man she's falling for online be the same one she despises in real life?* As their chemistry escalates, so do the stakes. Oliver, trapped in a cycle of longing for someone he can't have, begins to question whether Mila's fire might heal him-or burn him alive. Meanwhile, Mila grapples with a terrifying truth: the more she learns about Oliver's fractured soul, the harder it is to walk away. But is this connection real, or just a reckless infatuation? And when their explosive arguments melt into stolen moments of vulnerability, can two people who thrive on self-preservation risk letting their guards down? *Sparks in the Shadows* weaves a sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance tangled with secrets, banter, and the haunting question: Can love thrive between a woman who trusts no one and a man who's forgotten how to try?![Can We Be A Family?!
