Sometimes life gives you what you didn't ask for...
When Knox and Beckett met, they were thrust into a world that consisted only of the two of them and the immense amount of love they shared for one another.
With high school finally behind them, they are able to start the life they always wanted. They focused on school, work and being loving husbands to one another. It was a simple life. An exclusive life. And that's exactly how they wanted it. The more people they kept out, the less judgement they'd have to face. They learned quickly that some people are relentless. Some people are desperate and some people are jealous. Jealous enough to force a wedge inside their relationship and the world it was formed in.
When their peaceful world turns dangerous, english papers and college exams become the least of their worries. Suddenly, they're forced to deal with a world that's been corrupted by a harassment claim, a restraining order, and a trip to the hospital.
Knox and Beck didn't plan for people to start knocking on the walls they created. They didn't plan for their world to crumble and they certainly didn't plan on turning against each other. When their marriage suffers, their world is destroyed in a matter of moments. Are they strong enough to put the pieces back together? Or will they lose everything?

Opposites attract. Right? Love stories claim that there is no truer phrase. That there is nothing more romantic than two people discovering each other, realizing they don't hate each other as much as they thought they did. Real life shows that it is a little more complicated than they want us to believe and to be cautious. Jennifer and Destiny, on the other hand, think that feeling that kind of attraction is nothing but a torture, a curse. Just a bad twist of fate. Yet that is exactly how their story began. With a terrible accident and two pairs of eyes lost in each other for a second too long. Just enough to set off a spark. Love stories would say that the spell is fulfilled, the attraction is born and a happy ending is assured. Real life would suggest staying grounded and not getting overwhelmed by passion. Jennifer and Destiny think it would have been better if they had never met.Complete
Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
Untimely Love (Book 3)
♤VOL 1: Book III in the FORBIDDEN series♤ ♠♤ "Have you ever been in love?" I didn't know what to say to that. My skin heated with an embarrassed, uncomfortable blush that even attacked my skull. I should've been more prepared for the question, I guess. Still, it felt like a punch in the gut. Who says I'm not, is what I wanted to say-it's the worse thing I could possibly say. The worst thing to admit to myself now. "By that look," she gestured to my face, sitting back in her chair, "I'd say you have." ♠♤ He hadn't been prepared for the past year. In the beginning, he only saw it as his first and last year of freedom. He dropped out of honors classes and quit the track team to focus on more academic studies and getting into college. A girl hadn't been in his plans. Heartbreak hadn't either. But it happened anyway because life could be a bitch like that. And now he had to start college and a new life with the pain and memories burning in the back of his head and chest for however long it took to be okay after a heart had been broken. He'd been denying the one thing everyone's been throwing at him; 'college will change you'. And now he's seeing that there was a chance he would change. But it wouldn't be because of college. ♠♤ ♤ Sequel to 'Forbidden Attraction' ♤ Will officially start publishing in September 2020
Me and you till the end
"They hated each other first. Then they learned what real love feels like messy, loud, and impossible to forget." Jacob Reeves and Olivia Wilde were never supposed to work together. He was the quiet, brooding type - the guy who kept his guard up and his feelings buried deeper than anyone could reach. She was all passion and fire, a hopeless romantic who believed that love could fix anything. So when they were forced to team up for a college project about love, it felt like a cruel joke. Their meetings were full of sarcasm, stubborn arguments, and frustrated sighs. He thought she was too idealistic. She thought he didn't have a heart. But late nights have a way of breaking down walls. Between stacks of notes and too many cups of coffee, their conversations began to shift. The project became an excuse to stay longer, to talk about things that had nothing to do with school - dreams, fears, regrets, and everything in between. Somewhere between the bickering and the laughter, Jacob and Olivia fell for each other. Not in a perfect, movie-scene kind of way, but in a real way - messy, unexpected, and impossible to control. But timing has never been kind to them. Life pulled them in different directions - heartbreaks, ambitions, and choices they couldn't undo. Still, what they shared never truly faded. It lingered in every memory, every "what if," every song that reminded them of what once was. Because some love stories don't end - they echo. And theirs? It's the kind you never forget, no matter how far you run.Complete

C.L.O.S.E HEARTS (Book 3)
Elias and Alexander have spent the last few years tangled in each other's orbit, their love steady and unshaken. But as the future looms closer, the reality of change begins to settle between them. Elias has finally found his path-art. It's always been a part of him, but now he's ready to make it his future. He dreams of studying at an art school, of creating something lasting. Alexander, on the other hand, is still searching. With everyone around him settling into their ambitions, he feels stuck, torn between expectations and a desire for something he hasn't quite figured out yet. When Elias is given the opportunity to spend time in a small artist village east of their countryside town, it feels like fate. A chance to grow, to learn, to connect with other artists. But distance is a fickle thing, and leaving Alexander behind-even for a little while-feels heavier than he expected. In the village, Elias meets Leo, another young artist whose work is as intense as the walls he keeps up. At first, Leo is cold, unwilling to let Elias in. But as they spend time together, painting side by side, Leo's guarded nature begins to crack. He shares pieces of himself through his art-memories of a past he can't escape, pain etched into every brushstroke. Their bond grows, built on understanding and creativity, leaving Elias torn between admiration and the echoes of home pulling at his heart. Meanwhile, Alexander struggles with Elias's absence more than he expected. The quiet of their town feels different without him. He finds himself thinking too much, questioning everything-what he wants, where he's going, who he'll be without Elias by his side every second of the day. And with the possibility of them attending different schools in the near future, the uncertainty gnaws at him. As both boys navigate their own journeys-one of artistic discovery, the other of self-realization-they're faced with the biggest question of all: Can love stay the same when everything else is changing?Complete
