Vera Martinez has never dated. (Leaving out her seven minutes in heaven with a boy from fourth grade). All she's ever known about relationships and love are from the books she reads and old films she watches. 

Until, in her English literature class she's partnered with a freelance illustrator, Nathan Park. From late night conversations, to coffee shop dates, and late night adventures. She takes careful-small steps to not screw this up. What she doesn't know is when a really gorgeous guy asks her out to one date - drama comes along with it.

Perpetual quitter Vera Kwan thinks she's got it made when her style blog catches the attention of narcissistic actor Carmen Juarez, but after egos ignite a gossip war, Vera has to learn to balance her flighty ambitions and her attraction to Carmen's prickly, gorgeous manager Sharise before her Hollywood dreams fall apart like a cheap polyester blouse. ***** It's not Vera Kwan's fault that she can't hold down a job. A fashion school dropout, she dreams of becoming a famous designer, but the life of a style influencer is more grind than glamour. She just needs one big break, one chance to prove her styles are red carpet worthy. When a snarky post about her celebrity crush Carmen Juarez catches the actor's attention, Vera wins her ticket to stardom. As Carmen's stylist, she sets out to prove that she's more than just pretty clothes and the right filters, and maybe even win the affections of Carmen's aloof manager, Sharise, who she quickly finds herself falling for. After a clever fashion stunt goes viral, Vera is suddenly the most sought-after stylist in Hollywood. She even gets a job offer from Carmen's rival. But her style success may not be getting her any closer to her designer dreams, and secrets are beginning to fray her sense of purpose. If Vera can't figure out what's important enough to see through to the end, even when it seems impossible, she risks losing both the professional relationship that made her and the romantic relationship that might be the one thing that matters to her as much as fashion. ***** Complete at 100k words. *featured on Wattpad's A Latte Love, #WrittenWithPride, From Our Stars, and In her words #IWD2020 reading lists* Cover by the incredible @AnnaofthePond

[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

This is book one of a novella series, mostly consisting of shorter stories of 50k-100k word count. Ju Garcia hasn't ever felt the need to become entangled with another romantically, much less hop into bed with them. In fact, she's never even felt attraction in the true consistence of the word her entire life and now that she is nearly thirty-two, she has even less interest, focusing on the career she loves. However, things can't always go the way they're planned and when a comic book creator, Hayden Weller, signs up with Ju's studio, things begin to stir within herself and the call to romance may just take the helm. Hayden Weller is a geek through-and-through, wearing it like a badge of honor her entire life. She also happens to be a creator herself, working with her best friend to create a highly decorated and critically acclaimed webtoon. Still, that project is over as is their previous contract, so they begin interviewing potential companies and run into a woman with whom Hayden is immediately taken. However, Hayden has a dark past filled with regret, abuse and addiction and fears her own emotions may end everything she has worked for in chaos. Fear controls many aspects of people's lives. Some defeat it, while others internal struggle is endless, but can Ju and Hayden overcome their inner demons and rise above? Better and perhaps together...? ⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains elements of drug & emotional abuse and Borderline Personality Disorder. ❤ Mature/Erotic Content ⚢ Lesbian Romance/Lit 📚 Complete and undergoing editing.
