Moving 1,370 miles away from home to take care of her grandma wasn't how Ashlyn Emerson planned on spending her summer. She knew taking care of the woman who raised her wasn't going to be an easy task. She has always been a free spirit. The kind of girl who turned her head towards the stars closed her eyes and dreamed. You'd think someone who studied the stars would know better than to wish on them. But she still gave them one simple wish: that she'd find her place in this world.
Forced to grow up too fast, Eli Cormac was the sole provider for his younger brother and sister. He was making ends meet but dreamed of something greater. Something to help him find the happiness he once had. Eli looked towards the stars asking for a sign from the universe that he wasn't meant to be alone.
Looking up into the night sky was comforting. It felt safe. And when Ashlyn and Eli bump into each other at the old star observatory in the middle of the night, they both take it as a sign. They were both on the right track all along.

Not UR Friend
I didn't come here to make friends. But still- it hit harder than I thought when he said it. "We're not friends." Just like that. Like I was the problem for thinking the silence between us meant anything more than... silence. He barely looked at me when he said it. Didn't flinch. Didn't soften. And I wish I could say I didn't care. I wish I could say I rolled my eyes and walked away. But the truth is- his words stayed. ::: She never asked for a new beginning. He made sure it wouldn't feel like one. After losing everything that once felt like home, Lyrah is forced to move into a house that doesn't belong to her-shared with strangers, full of boxes that carry more silence than belongings. New town. New walls. New rules. What she didn't expect was Jonah McGregor. Detached. Sharp. Unbothered. The kind of guy who makes it clear from day one: "We're not friends." He doesn't want to talk. He doesn't want to listen. He just wants to be left alone. But sometimes the people who keep you furthest away are the ones who see you the clearest. And sometimes the most unexpected person becomes the only one who truly gets it. (Wednesday is new chapter day on 6 pm)

The Thorne of Her Heart (Thorne Siblings #1) ✔
EXCERPT-- "Pay up, Julian!" Marcus slapped Julian on the back, a triumphant grin splitting his face. "I knew you couldn't resist. 100 pounds, right? Told you she'd fall for the 'sensitive bad boy' routine, hook, line, and sinker." Julian's back stiffened, a sudden, rigid posture. He turned slightly, and Ellie saw Marcus pressing a crisp 100-pound note into his hand, a smug, victorious smirk on his face. Her blood ran cold, freezing in her veins, turning to icy dread. *** *** Meet Eleanor "Ellie" Smith. Your average (?), shy, kind-hearted, slightly clumsy bookworm. She believes, with every fiber of her being, that genuine connection and kindness are the most important things in life. Her world is built on empathy, quiet strength, and the unwavering belief in the good in people. Then there's Julian Thorne. Not-so-average. Bold. Ruthless. The kind of popular guy who walks into a room and owns it, radiating an icy confidence that chills everyone in his path. He wouldn't hesitate to crush anyone standing between him and success - after all, isn't that what's expected from the future head of Thorne & Sons, the most powerful empire in the city? He despises everything Ellie stands for. And it really doesn't help that she's best friends with his younger sister, Clara Thorne. When their worlds collide, sparks don't just fly... they ignite a wildfire. A reluctant, undeniable pull draws them together, even as their opposing natures threaten to tear them apart. But what does fate have in store for this unlikely pair? Join me on a journey where enemies become... something more. Where every glance is charged, and every touch could either heal or shatter. P.S. This is my very first story on Wattpad, and I'm pouring my heart into it! Your thoughts and feedback mean the world to me.

Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.

Meet Aashna a community manager who is forever clumsy but organized enough to sustain her life and live it out no matter what happens. And about the guy who fell head over heels for her? It is a mystery, only unlocked by reading my book!

I prefer to live through the romance stories I weave and post online. Hardly anyone reads my books, even if they're free, but I do have one fan, and he's supported me since I started writing two years ago. Except, my writing started to take a depressing dive when I realized that you simply couldn't prevent nor protect your heart from falling for someone. For him. For the one who had no interest in me. When I fell in love with him, I thought we had a chance. It was an accident. Turned out, I couldn't be more wrong. He doesn't want me, and I wasn't supposed to have him. It didn't matter if he showed up in the bookstore every day, talking to everyone else except me. Nor did it matter at all because he didn't know sign language. He couldn't learn. We couldn't communicate. But after I go on a date and it ends in putrid disaster, he makes his appearance known, and he's angry. Then he's doing things for me that confuse me. My stories are filling up with pages of content, dreams that I want to come true, and my mystery commenter encourages me to continue-to reach my happiness. To take what I want. But the activities planned start sparking familiarity-like I lived it before, or maybe dreamed it. Or maybe, just maybe, I'd written it before? My mind is spiraling, but I can't stop myself from getting closer and closer to him. I'm not supposed to have him, but my heart craves him. Sage Monroe, I'm in love with you, and I'm scared now because I have a feeling that you've been communicating with me in more ways than one.Complete
