Jacob Maier looks hot on paper: An award-winning musician with famous friends and even more famous exes, he's both a tabloid favorite and a cautionary tale.
The word in Hollywood is: if you're a female star on the rise, don't touch him with a ten-foot pole.
YouTuber Alexis "Al" Hunter has heard her agent's warning and brushed it aside. She isn't even in the market for romance after her first and only relationship went up in flames.
When a work project goes sideways and her best friend stands her up at a local dive bar, Al is ready to call it a night. But just as she's about to leave, a guy walks in who has the women at the bar swooning like he's the protagonist in a steamy cologne commercial. And Al can't help but watch!
Until he takes a seat at her table...

GRAVITY (named after the John Mayer song since he accidentally inspired this story too) is a romcom I made up in 2019 to cope with insomnia. I wasn't planning on ever writing it down but the story came back to me when I had a severe case of insomnia thanks to the 2020 Covid lockdown.
Unlike the majority of my books, which are largely inspired by my own life, this story pays homage to my favorite celebrities, the digital age, and pop culture. I should be too old to get excited about stories like this, but some of us never grow old, so this one's for the eternally young. ;p
Hope you enjoy!

Judalia
Adalia has always known she was on the curvy side when it came to her body. There was no hiding it. And at 26 years old being plus size she figured finding someone to love wasn't going to be something she planned in her life. Usually when she caught a man's attention it was because he believed she was easy or for a fun time. But Adalia didn't want her body used for only enjoyment to a man. She always told herself she wanted something serious, not just a quickie. She believed eventually she'd find someone and she had plenty of time to find love. Maybe she was just a late bloomer. Instead of focusing on her love life she chose to prioritize her family. Juan thought his last relationship was going to be the one. After 13 years of knowing each other and 11 years of being together, he was engaged to whom he thought was the love of his life. His fiance, Emily had other plans since she'd fallen out of love with him. She had instead found more interest in a co-worker breaking Juan's heart and leaving him. 2 years have passed since Juan's heart had been broken and he'd lost hope in love. He had gotten a bit better from his broken heart over time. Now 30 years old he was ready for a change. He packed up; along with Charlie his dog, and sold or gave away what he couldn't take. He moved back to the little town of Luxorville where everyone knows everyone; with his mother. It had been a while since Juan had been back home. He noticed there were a few new families that had moved into town over the years. Someone new specifically though that caught his attention was a short woman he saw across the street unloading groceries from her car. Adalia and Juan are bound to cross paths given that they are now neighbors. The only question is are they willing to give themselves a chance in love? *This story is mostly in English.

The Gift Of Love [A Compilation Of Short Romance Stories]||18+||
💡this is a collection of my Instagram romance short stories. ~Re-editing, publishing and writing more. [A Country Man] ....and the days had turned weeks and weeks into months and the following year drew in. A call from Vie had come in March. "We have a baby" she said "and a son" There was a pause on the other line. My heart pounded now "You have a flight to catch John" She said with a chuckle. I had no words, she knew and Vie laughed all along through my silence. [Aries] I nodded. I could swear by my brother's grave, I was dead listening now. "We've been watching you for a month now. Tomorrow is your birthday" I watched him stop and look at me. That message he wanted my eyes to tell, he did see because I couldn't believe that for the past four weeks, I've been under someone's eyes. "Don't get loud yet" Okay. A pre-information that was useful. "Please get to the point sir" He nodded slowly and just stared. I knew at that moment, the answer was coming "You're here for surrogacy and you happen to be the best DNA we could find in such short notice" HEADS UP HERE!! ~All them stories are mine. If you see it somewhere else that isn't Wattpad or my Instagram page, tell me!! ~I will write more scenes on stories that get more votes and comments.

Waves - Book #2 [completed]
Mason 🎸 My life's in shambles. Okay, that's a little dramatic considering that my band broke up. But I don't know what to do with my future, my career and my life going forward. So I do the only reasonable thing and run as far as I can go - to Australia. Nobody here knows (or cares) how famous I am. Especially Riley doesn't care. She doesn't even like me and has no problem telling me how much she thinks I suck. Riley 🌊 He's the most arrogant person I've met in a long time. Demanding, entitled and conceited. Charming and pretty too. Urgh. Mutual friends force us to spent time together again and again. I just can't escape him. I don't want him and I don't need him, yet he's the constant dripping that will wear away the stones I've put around my heart for a good reason. ~~~ Waves is a "we don't like each other"-to-lovers book with a strong-minded female lead who has to learn to allow feelings again, and a cocky and witty (maybe unlikeable at first) male lead with a failed rockstar attitude. But I promise he's sweet underneath it all. 18+ ONLY (strong language, sexual content, swearing etc.) Trigger Warnings (may contain spoilers): 🚩loss of a loved one 🚩mentions of drugs ~~~ I'll try to update twice a week, but without a schedule this time. I may throw in a couple extra chapters here and there depending on how writing goes. Love, Izzy 🌿Complete

WISHBONE: Chords & Collars
Boy meets boy. Boy mocks boy. Boy falls (a little too hard). Dior Max is all sharp edges and smoother fabrics-stylish, strategic, and emotionally unbothered. Or so he pretends. Brix Julian is a walking headache with a guitar: smug, loud, and alarmingly good at sending the wrong message. They argue. They prank. They lock eyes for too long in crowded hallways. It's not flirting-it's war. Obviously. But somewhere between the teasing and tension, Dior starts collecting hope-one red paper heart at a time. Every mixed signal? Folded. Stored. Counted. He'll confess when the jar is full. Because maybe, just maybe, Brix means it. SPOILER ALERT: he doesn't. Turns out the signals were smoke, the crush was one-sided, and the heartbreak? Custom-tailored. Chords vs. Collars. Gloss meets grit. A stylish slow-burn that stings where it shouldn't. Because the cruelest crushes don't break-they hum. ___________// ⚠ gentle heads-up! This story explores sensitive themes such as homophobia, emotional trauma, misunderstandings, and the use of strong language. Please read with care and kindness to yourself. Your heart and well-being matter most. ♡ (Note: This story is currently a work in progress and may include typos or little grammar hiccups. Thank you for your patience and love!) 🧵🎸 just a tiny disclaimer: This story is fictional.

The Bakery Love
"Are you sure that I don't make you nervous when I get closer to you?" he teased me. Each word he said he took a step closer to me. By now my heart was pounding so loudly that I thought he might be able to hear. Being near him made my thoughts all jumbled up but I wasn't going to accept that, especially not to him. So I stuttered a no. To which he smirked as if he knew I was lying. "Okay, so you don't get goosebumps or shivers when I do this, right?" he murmured as he gently traced my arm. And almost on cue, goosebumps arose where his hand had been on my arm. "Why do you have to lie? I told you I like you and I know that you like me too then why lie?" he asked softly with his eyes staring into mine. Oh, I like him. A lot. But I couldn't succumb, I cannot be in a relationship with my employee that is basically against all the rules. I can't. But my thoughts were lost when he pressed his lips on my cheek very near to my mouth. And I closed my eyes. ---------------- Isabella Anderson is the owner of a famous cafe named 'Sugar & Spice'.

Living with a YouTuber?!
This is a sequel, so read "Dating a YouTuber?!" first. I wholeheartedly loved and trusted Nate despite having known him less than a year. I had a million reasons why I shouldn't move in with him but I decided to ignore them and trust my gut feeling rather than my head. I knew people would say it was too soon and that I'd be giving up even more privacy living with a YouTuber who daily vlogged. Slowly but surely I was being wrapped in various YouTube activities and it had become a significant part of my life. I would be busier than ever when I went back to university and continued to run my now high-profile blog. It would be a challenge to juggle the pressure from the online world while attending my responsibilities, finding time for my passions and maintaining all my personal relationships. I didn't mind though. All the pieces seemed to fall into place and I was so bloody excited to see what the future would bring. *********************************************************** If you're confused, please read "Dating a YouTuber?!" first (check my profile). Blogger and photographer Abigail has agreed to move in with Nate, a.k.a. SillyNate on YouTube, and they are keeping it a secret from his YouTube audience for now. While the main characters (who are ALL fictional) still are the focus, this book will also have many cameos from real life YouTubers and draw on real events.Complete
False Rumors
Edit: Hi, this is more present day Elle. Not the past Elle that wrote this. I would like to thank you for reading, however I must warn you. I reread this earlier and was a bit grossed out that I thought it was a good plot. Past Elle tried so I'm proud of her for that but I do find it discusting. If you would like to continue reading, thank you. I appreciate you. However, if you decide to leave, I respect that, I would too. I'm leaving this one up and not deleting it because it will be fun later to compare how much my writing has improved as well as my covers. I did update the cover to one that looks a bit better. Thank you for reading. Have an amazing night or day wherever you are! Elia Peirce (El-ee-uh Peers) 24 Nickname: El She was constantly misunderstood. People would look for a millisecond and assume the worst things possible. It was bad everywhere but most at work. Mostly with her boss.
