Calla and Elijah, two highschoolers with futures as big as their dreams.
When romance blooms between their friends, both Calla and Elijah realize something. One realizes that romance just doesn't seem to be in the cards for them. And for the other? They realize they're in extremely deep trouble, already mentally planning their funeral for when someone finds out.
And when their already complicated home lives get even more complicated, they feel the need to keep such things a secret. Even from each other.
These two are closer than two peas in a pod, and both begin to realize that keeping secrets from the person who knows you better than yourself is hard. Especially when they can tell that something is up.
And when a little bit of distance is revealed to be growing, and when a car ride late at night just can't do the trick like it used to, Calla and Elijah find that not only is their world changing, but so are they.
All it takes is a slip of the tongue for all their secrets to come spilling out. But how long can it be before that happens?
And when they decide to stop holding back and start taking risks that could completely destroy their friendship, will it be too late?

A Little Left to Give (Forgotten Series #8)
~ It is by Mene's word that new age has been born, a new world ~ Ezekiel Ruiz was unwillingly stuck between two worlds. He was a wild and that was where he found the most comfort, lost in the darkness while his wolf took over. But Amelia's Blessing had his wolf barring the darkness from him, refusing him his familiar comfort, the compulsion to find the viper he mated to screaming without the pain to drown it out. At times he felt like the blessing was a curse. ~ Change is always hard, and it is in our nature as wolves to fight it ~ Julieta Esperanza Valentina Cruz had always played by the rules, it was what she had been taught, it was what was fair.

Sometimes she wished Mene's love wasn't so brutal. ~ But Mene guides us in our lives, listen to her loving whispers, she never gives us more than we can withstand ~ A singular night changes everything. Ezekiel makes a choice that topples his world into the clinging dredges of the past and Julieta comes face to face with a male she had once had a foolish little crush on what feels like lifetimes ago. However as they navigate the treacherous waters they have been flung into, they both learn that home is not a simple place, it's where you make it, and who you make it with. ~ You will reach your destiny, Mene wills it. ~
Eclipsed By Fate
When destiny calls, even the shadows must answer. After the death of his grandmother, 24-year-old Luka Montgomery discovers a truth that shatters his ordinary life: he is a caster, born into a legacy of magic he never knew existed. With his grandmother's cryptic letter as his only guide, Luka learns he has until his 25th birthday to master his craft-or face certain death at the hands of Lorena, his corrupted and power-hungry aunt. Armed with a mysterious spellbook and a desperate hope, Luka embarks on a journey to unlock his latent powers, navigating a world of werewolves, witches, and ancient magic he never imagined was real. But Luka isn't alone. Aiden Reede, the future Alpha of the Blood Crescent Pack, is everything Luka isn't: confident, strong, and deeply rooted in the supernatural world. When their paths collide, Aiden's instincts tell him one thing-Luka is his fated mate. Yet, with Luka's life hanging in the balance and Lorena's shadow drawing closer, Aiden must tread carefully. Revealing the truth could overwhelm Luka, but keeping it hidden risks everything. As Luka faces trials of magic, battles rogue wolves, and uncovers the secrets of his family's dark past, he and Aiden grow closer, their bond deepening with each step. But time is running out. Lorena's power grows stronger, and her hunt for Luka grows more relentless. To survive, Luka must embrace his destiny, master his magic, and trust in the bond he shares with Aiden-even if it means risking everything he's ever known. In a world where light and shadow collide, Eclipsed by Fate is a tale of magic, destiny, and the unbreakable bond between two souls fated to change each other's lives forever.Complete

He is drawn to her impenetrable heart; she is terrified by the unknown emotions he awakens. As her past enemies resurface and his own world threatens to collide with hers, Alia must confront the ultimate question: Can a cold heart learn to love a cold-blooded one?

Part Of Him
She was supposed to remember the best day of her life. She just can't remember if it ever happened. Ava used to believe in ordinary magic. Messy mornings with Maya knocking over mugs and yelling about coffee filters. Studio nights where Aiden argued about fonts like the world depended on it. Quiet days filled with pencil smudges, gold light, and music she never let anyone else hear. She had rules, routines, a voice that filled the room when she wanted it to-and a life that, while chaotic, was hers. Then came the stillness. They say she's healing. That memory can be slippery after grief. But the pieces don't align. Why does she flinch when he touches her? Why do her old journals sound like they were written by a stranger? Why does Aiden-distant, bitter, and quiet-look at her like she betrayed him? And why does Maya, the one person who always told her the truth, suddenly fall silent when Ava starts asking questions? Her past is blurred. Her future feels chosen for her. And in the mirror, she sees a girl shaped by someone else's hands. But somewhere, buried under fog and half-truths, a part of her remembers what it felt like to belong to no one. Not loved. Not kept. Not rewritten. Just... hers.

Celestial Bodies: Of Runts and Lycans (sample)
-sample- "Answer my question and I would more than love to continue." I find myself nodding frantically and his chuckle echoes in his body. "Use your words." I find myself blushing again but I say nothing. He pulls a breath away from me. When I continue to say nothing he leans back down, briefly brushing his lips over mine with no pressure behind it. His hand on the base of my neck moves up slightly, tilting my head back to his side so my neck is to him. His fingertips brushing over my skin sends a large wave of tingles through me and I can't suppress the shudder that leaves me. He brushes his nose against my neck and I tighten my fisted hand to a point of pain. His hand on my waist quickly goes to my fisted knuckles and smooths them out onto his chest once again. "Can you feel how fast my heart beats for you, Celeste?" It is much faster now. "It's because it belongs to you. All of me? Belongs to you." ~ Finding herself suddenly alone and injured, Celeste finds herself on the grounds of one of the largest packs in the country.
