It all started with a chance encounter. Or rather a Chase encounter.
Alea Maia Collins. In college, she was just like any other student, doing her work silently and only talking to her best friend, Marianne. But on the inside, she was this firecracker of attitude, pizzazz and so much more, just that no one knew how to light her up inside out. Until he came. Or rather bumped into her life. C. They met everyday in a cafe, not knowing who the other was, just knowing the face, but still they understood each other and found an anchor of trust and hope somewhere in the other person, something for them to hold on to amidst their chaotic lives. With C, she was at peace and with Maia, he was finally free. Until, their tiny little bubble of them broke and reality caught up to them.
Now, 5 years later, finally, fate has done its magic, and she finds herself in a cafe with C. Again. Just like old times. Just this time, C has become Chase Anderson, CEO of Anderson Corporations, and Maia has become Alea Maia Collins, superstar actress with an Oscar to her name. Both of them are immersed in the world of cameras, fame and wealth and the stakes are higher than ever.
As old feelings emerge and try to overcome logic and reality, Alea and Chase finally make their choices and decide what is important for them. As they say, opposites attract, but do they always end up together?

Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.Complete
My Broken YOU
****Updated and re-edited*****Dec of 2024 In her last year of college, Madison Harlow breaks up with her childhood boyfriend. They've never been anything but close friends and a kiss. No one knew he was unstable and would take his life, which in turn forced Madison to want to live more of a life.

Madison hides her true feelings deep down inside of her. One night is all it takes for Mason to take Madison's virginity and create a wild, toxic, and addicting romance between the two of them. What brought her to him? Is it because Mason is broken, and Madison believes she has to fix everyone? Is it because not only did he take her virginity, but he made her feel what a true kiss feels like? Or is it because she's become addicted to the arousing feelings and pleasure he can give her? These two are no good for each other but can't stay away. They are magnets in this universe, attracted from thousands of miles away no matter what happens.

Worlds Apart
They met by accident...by chance. The campus of UNC was busy that day. Everyone was in a hurry. Especially the two juniors that would collide and ultimately change their lives. Brooklyn Morgan, a talented but struggling singer-songwriter, whose soulful lyrics go merely unnoticed in a world full of big artists. For Brooklyn, the bar stages are small, the paychecks are meager, and the future seems uncertain. But she clings to her music in hopes it'll be worth one day. Across campus, you could find Alessia Russo on the field every day. An England native was living the American dream. She had everything going for her. She was a part of England's under-21 squad, on the verge of making her senior debut, and huge clubs were looking at her to sign. One morning though, one was in a rush to get to her class and one was in a rush to get to practice, they run into each other. Something about the clumsy English girl took Brooklyn by surprise, and something about the American made Alessia's head spin. It's from there on, a connection is made. Their lives of now sitting in the stands and sitting in the crowd forms. However, when Alessia forgoes her senior year to play in England, the connection they had fades and they become a small memory to each other. But what happens when Brooklyn's finally selling out stadiums and one of them happens to be Wembley? What happens when they meet each other again for the first time in two years? What happens when the connection they had runs deeper than they first thought originally? What happens when they're right next to each other but feel as though they're worlds apart?Complete

The Girl Who Walked Away
Prologue In the world of college life, words are often thrown around like confetti-light, colorful, and sometimes lacking substance. They say things to fill the silence, to create connections, and to express feelings that often remain hidden beneath the surface. But what happens when those words fall flat? When the promises made in fleeting moments fade into echoes of unfulfilled intentions? This is a story about the complexities of communication and the silent battles fought within relationships. It began with a simple smile exchanged in the midst of chaos during National Pharmacy Week-a moment that seemed inconsequential yet held the weight of possibilities. She found herself drawn to him, captivated by the way he spoke, the way he made her feel. But as she discovered, words alone would not be enough to bridge the gap between us. As their paths intertwined, we danced around each other in a series of unsaid feelings, lingering glances, and an unspoken connection that left her yearning for more. But with every promise unkept, the reality became clearer: words are just that-words. They mean little without the actions to back them up. This is the story of Elle's journey through that realization, a tale of fleeting moments, unfulfilled expectations, and ultimately, the power of choosing clarity over confusion. It's about learning that love is not just spoken; it's demonstrated. And in the end, it was a lesson that would change everything she thought she knew about relationships and herself.Complete
