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
Gabriel & Athena, Book One: Fate (A Wattpad Featured Story)
FORMERLY TITLED "FATUM" Chosen as a Wattpad Featured Story in May 2017 There's a reason high school senior Athena Thorpe spends every available moment reading books: fiction is always so much better than the real world. Even the unexpected scandal she suffered thanks to Jackson Montgomery was just a blip in her typically mundane existence in Sparrow, North Carolina. But no story could ever compare to the life-altering events that occur when Gabriel Valente moves into town. Being the son of a notorious crime lord and having grown up on the streets of Manhattan, Gabriel defies all the expectations the students of Sparrow High have for him, including Athena's. She never expected he would match her interest in the written word, or his unlikely grand gestures and definitely not the immediate but intense feelings which cause them to spiral into a secret relationship. A relationship that hinders on Gabriel's uncertain future, which could find him being the heir to the mob throne. Whether or not she wants to admit it, Athena knows the world Gabriel comes from is a dark and violent one. It's just really easy to pretend it doesn't exist within the bubble that is Sparrow. Yet, no matter how much we pretend, reality is never far away, with Gabriel and Athena learning a tragic lesson about choice and consequence a little too late. When you finally decide what you want most in life, the next question becomes: will fate agree?Complete
