「Previously titled as - 'Parallel Scars'」
Aria Bradford thinks it's best to keep one's problems to oneself because talking about it to other people won't solve them. That is why she never talks to her friends about her past and the occasional nightmares that bother her. All she cares about is holding onto her scholarship, getting a degree and landing a good job.
But when she crosses paths with her university's reputed honor student, Aria's mantra of life breaks apart. The girl is stunned when she discovers how that honor student, who is the textbook example of perfection, harbors scars almost identical to hers and she unexpectedly finds herself opening up to him about her past.

Stir The Tension
"Each of your scars has a story, and I'm more than happy you trust me enough to let me in on those stories..." When two polar opposites collide-Leo, open-hearted but unsure, and Ace, guarded and haunted by expectations-their chance connection slowly deepens into something more intimate. As trust is built, secrets unravel, and feelings surface, they must navigate not only their own growing bond, but the fears threatening to break it. Surrounding them are Claire and Alexandra-best friends, reluctant allies, and perhaps mirrors of what healing can look like when you stop running from yourself. With Claire's fierce loyalty and Alexandra's quiet resilience, the four of them learn that relationships-romantic or otherwise-aren't about being perfect, but about being present. Stir the Tension is a slice-of-life romance about healing, identity and finding warmth in the unexpected, strength in vulnerability, and love in all its messy, complicated forms. Warm, heartfelt, and quietly powerful, Stir The Tension is a slice-of-life romance that will pull at your heartstrings and remind you what it means to be seen. Fall into a story where love simmers, friendships evolve, and healing starts with a single honest conversation. -------------------- RanksComplete

Once in a Lifetime {BxB English}
IMPORTANT: Once in a Lifetime has been removed from Wattpad and is preparing for publication on Amazon. The first two chapters remain available as a preview. Please read the "READ THIS FIRST" chapter for more information and future updates. They say some loves only happen once. For Ody and Mano, that once changes everything. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen. And losing someone again isn't a risk he's willing to take. Ody is the opposite. Bright, extroverted, charming, and painfully sincere, he notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. For someone like Mano, that kind of softness is dangerous. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. What starts as tension becomes something neither of them can name, and soon, something they can't stop. But between secrets, buried trauma, and a world that won't let them exist without consequences, wanting each other comes at a cost. One keeps pushing him away. The other keeps reaching past every warning sign. Together, they burn. But when everything catches fire, love may not be enough to save them.Complete
