[Completed]  Bea, a young artist on the wrong side of 25, has to follow the letter. Her dead mother's last wishes. It would be horrible not to. Her best friend Nicole is the keeper of the letter. With a firm hand and a sassy attitude, Nicole ensures that Bea follows the letter. To leave the safety of her father's Florida home to fly to England. To accept an art award she doesn't feel she deserves. But first Bea is sent on a small detour.

Peter, a well tempered Englishman, is far from home. He's disappointed his father. Again. Business tycoons rarely take it well when deals fall through. His best mate Dean spurs him on to do something. Go anywhere but home for a real holiday. Not one dictated to him by his family's expectations.

Two dissimilar people are tossed together.  Where strangers tend to meet.  An airport. Both headed to Cappadocia. An ancient land filled with mysterious wonder and hot air balloons.

Be it fate, destiny, kismet, or Providence...Bea and Peter continue to bump into one another. One on an adventure she didn't choose. Another fighting against a life he doesn't quite fit. These two lonely people are brought closer, the pressures from home forgotten as this tease of something beautiful starts.

Then reality slams down quite brutally, breaking the two apart.

Separated by an ocean, Bea and Peter are both confronted by their feelings. 

Will Bea take a stand and make her own choices?
Will Peter fight to be his own person and go after what he wants?

(This is my first venture into the world of a novella length story. This reluctant wanderlust story has a healthy dose of love and humo[u]r tossed in. Then it's submerged in the sea of  cliches. Hate it? Love it? Read it.😄 There are plans to go back and fix and edit this story that was concocted in less than 3 months.)

How far would you go to protect the ones you love? A successful architect with a promising career in London, Brian's world spins out of control when the man he always saw as a second father betrays him in the most unexpected way. Left without closure, a year has passed and Brian is now more determined than ever to undo the harm done to the ones he loves most, his family. Even if that means riding the thin line between justice, revenge, and obsession... Immersed in his resolve, finding love again was the last thing on his mind. Until fate steps in and a chance encounter changes everything. Meeting Olivia again so unexpectedly, at his best friend's wedding, stirs up memories he had long ago put away. She'd been his first love, his kindred spirit - and the woman who left him without saying so much as a goodbye. Which doesn't make him want her less. He knows it, the moment she locks her deep green eyes on his. Even knowing it might be too late to repair what's been once broken, Brian refuses to lose her again and sets out to find a way back to her heart. But it's been more than ten years since their story was left unfinished. Will they get one last chance to make things right? Or will Brian learn that sometimes justice comes at too high a price? *** NOTE TO READERS: A full-length, standalone contemporary romance, Where the Stars Fall was previously published on Wattpad as Falling Home.

"Tell me. Why won't you tell me?" He asks and I look towards him slowly, "You didn't even talk to me until yesterday! I'm trying to make it so nobody notices me, Kingston. I don't need this." I say and he slowly turns my face towards him, closing my locker and pinning me up against it. "What if I need you?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Nice one, Hamlet." I say, walking away from him. One of the perks of being short, easily get away from tall people. ❤︎ Kingston Brag is the blonde haired popular guy with baby blue eyes, he's the guy every girl wanted. Every. Single. One. Except for her... Summer Cynthia. She hides in the corners and under black hoodies to hide her scars and bruises, her bloody arms and cuts, she hides her life. But there is one person who is determined to know what happened to her. Kingston Brag. But he has a mission that he's running from. This book contains one sexual scene, lots of bad words, abuse, violence, all that jazz. If you don't want that don't read the book and comment how it's not appropriate or some crap like a mom. There are two lesbians, a gay man, and a bi mother, so don't freak out if you will I'd rather you not read. Also she's a walking contradiction, don't comment about it, I know. #1// badparents // November 18, 2019 #7//teendrama // February 21, 2020 #17//romance//May 08, 2020 #1//abandoned//March 29, 2021 #5//drama//May 14, 2021 #1//fiction//May 15, 2021 #1//popular//May 18, 2021 #1//chicklit//May 22, 2021 #2//highschool//February 20, 2023 #3//teen//February 20, 2023 #3//teenromance//fFebruary 20, 2023

"You've become so damaged that when someone tries to give you what you deserve, you have no idea how to respond." He says taking a step closer to me. I frown. "So, it's my fault? That I'm to blame for being damaged?" "No, it's not your fault at all, but it is your fault for believing you don't deserve better. That you don't deserve to be happy." Nathan looks away from my eyes, inhaling. "Maybe the little things that you consider your weakness are actually the things that people treasure most about you. Maybe you hate that you care too much...or that you wear your heart on your sleeve. But seriously, some people think that's the best damn thing about you. We all have different little things that make up who we are, we don't need to change those things, but we can choose who we share them with." "What are you saying?"
