A New Beginning
Introverts, I call out to you: This book is about Athena, the nerdiest of introverts. However, like everyone she was hit by the curse of falling in love. Unable to manage her feelings, she can't hold it anymore. What to do? She fell in love with her best friend, James but...her rival is only perfection itself. How to beat a perfect extrovert magnificent person? Not a single flaw compared to us, introverts. Bree is perfect. Who in the world would choose a flawed but unique introvert rather than a goddess, a princess who is just perfection? This is the first book of an amazing sequel. It will bring you back to the reality of how hard life as an introvert is. Hard but breathtaking at the same time.Each and every introvert is unique in their own way, not all of us react or act the same way but we're not as cold-hearted as people think we are. We have feelings too... Athena is exactly like a secondary character in movies or books. The kind of character we despise or that we don't pay much attention to. Bree and James are usually the protagonists. The lead character, the prince and the gay friend, who apparently has no other life than be devoted to the lead! A typical classic combination often found in romantic movies and books. This case is different, it's from a different perspective, from the point of view which is an outsider of this original combination. The feelings of this secondary character, her events, her point of views. I hope that you'll be able to allow Athena and sometimes James to express themselves. Worth a try, don't you think?

Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteComplete
All Around Us
""Christian, let go of me!" "No Liss, not until we settle this." I glared at him angrily as I waited for him to explain himself. "Okay look Liss. I never meant to hurt you... I just didn't know what to do." "Didn't know? Seriously? How could a person not know how to uncheat? Christian you were my friend's boyfriend." I told him, struggling to break free from his grip on my wrist. "Liss please... give me a chance. I need to make it up to you." He said to me softly, his soft grey eyes peering into my brown ones. I sighed and stopped fighting him. He took this as my surrender and let me go. Big mistake. As soon as he did I bolted back to my car and hurried to start it and drive away. I should have never come to this stupid party. --- Two childhood friends who drifted apart find each other again towards the end of highschool.
