Chasing Charming ✔️
Complete! "You know I really like you, right?" He was definitely drunk. "You do?" I asked. My voice was supposed to be teasing, but I think it came off as a bit startled. He laughed, "Yeah, why else would I trust you with all my secrets?" -- Betty was many things; a romantic, a fashion designer, a bit more jealous than the average girl, great with a camera, a helpful daughter and a good friend. But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough. She was going to have an amazing summer, a perfect Junior year, and finally have her first kiss. It was a foolproof plan. Moving from her childhood home in Arizona to New Mexico at the start of Junior year was never a part of Betty's plan. But sometimes when parents are involved, plans change. So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.Complete

After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job.

To the moon and back
When life is falling apart for 17-year-old Nigel, college rejections, family pressures, and a sister's mysterious illness, he has no idea that a chance meeting with the enigmatic Annika will challenge everything he thought he knew about love, destiny, and what it means to fight for those you cherish. But when his sister's diagnosis turns life upside down, and Annika reveals secrets of her own, Nigel must face a reality heavier than anything he imagined. As tragedy and miracles dance hand in hand, To the Moon and Back becomes a powerful journey of loss, healing, and the unexpected ways that people come into our lives at exactly the right moment. Heartfelt, humorous, and hauntingly relatable, this is a story about the deep pull of family, the sting of what we can't control, and the courage to believe in second chances, even when the odds are against us. For readers who love the emotional depth of Nicholas Sparks and the raw authenticity of John Green, this novel will stay with you long after the final page. ---To My Readers - A Letter from the Heart--- I wrote To the Moon and Back in memory of my young sister, who passed away from cancer in 2013. She was only 14, full of dreams, laughter, and a light that never dimmed, even in her final days. This story is my way of keeping her spirit alive, of reaching for the stars she never got to touch, and of giving voice to the love that still echoes in my heart. Today, I'm proud and emotional to say the novel is complete. Every chapter carries a piece of her. Every line is stitched with the hope, pain, and beauty of what it means to love deeply and lose too soon. I poured my soul into this book, and I hope you feel that in every word. Thank you for walking this journey with me. For reading, reacting, and believing in this story. It's more than fiction - it's a tribute. And now, it's yours. With love, Justin J. JonesComplete
