What does it mean to be deeply in love with someone? What does it mean to be so engrossed in someone that you forget your own value? What does it mean to lose yourself completely into someone, to trust them, to love them unconditionally, to cure them, to feel their pain, to be happy when they are happy and to cry when they cry? Moreover, what does it mean to be in love with someone you shouldn't? Do they feel the same, you once felt? Or were you just an unwanted piece of shit to them?
Samara Claire Robert, a young benevolent, and ambitious girl with a rough past. A girl, who has struggled for years to trust people, to work her way to success, and building walls around herself. With determination to make her life better and a passion for singing, she moves to California from Wisconsin for her last year of high school. Will moving to California open doors for a better future, or will the past still haunt her?
Grayson William Miller, a guy with a heart full of hatred and distaste. But...there is always a but. But, he wasn't always like this. He was sweet, loving, and devoted. He was a disappointment to his family but what his family didn't know was that beneath all the frowns and hatred laid a guy with a heart of gold, a guy who would do anything for the people he loves, and a guy who is lost in self resentment and distaste. That was until he met Samara.
What would happen when Samara meets Grayson? What would happen when he takes Samara for granted? Will Samara be able to handle the pain and heartbreak that comes with loving Grayson? Or will she give up? Will Grayson change his ways and become the guy he once was? Or will he lose Samara by doing something stupid? Will Samara be able to escape her past? Or will she once again be lonely?

Taming the Street Racer ✔️
When River crosses paths with a man who speaks to every hidden hunger inside her, their connection spirals into an all-consuming pull neither of them can resist-but is she Grayson's salvation... or his ruin? *** Everyone in River Avelle's hometown knows about Grayson Maddox-the troubled bad boy who almost killed another student in the middle of the school hallway. Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin

It Was Always You
"I'm sorry that I put you in this situation." "I'm not following." I really wasn't. "This. Us! What we did last night was reckless and so so perfect at the same time." He got up and walked over to me. "All I could think about was the look on your face. I couldn't sleep because I was thinking about the feel of your skin against mine." He came closer and now he was a breath away. "What are you saying?" I whispered. "I don't know." "I thought you didn't do girlfriends." "I don't." And just like that our lips met and the fire ignited within me again. _________________ You must think this is your typical love story with it's sickly sweet characters who slowly fall in love.

Serendipity - a fortunate happenstance |✔
"'For life' remember?" he kissed my forehead gently and rested his chin upon my head. "For life" I agreed, sighing a breath of relief. ✴✴✴ A girl who treasured goodness in everything she encounters. A symbol of benevolence. She never might have thought everything she felt for him would just become a lull before the storm. For her, it's no secret what kind of a game he was playing. But upon all, she saw in his eyes what nobody else cared enough to see before. She insisted on revealing what made him the person he was. That strikes off-limits for him. How jaded his soul had become in the face of cynical insensitiveness of human nature, it's impossible for him to believe that someone could genuinely care, unbelievable even more for a guy like him.The more she seemed to penetrate through his pretenses, the more he got terrified. The more he got terrified, he got furious. Could falling in love with him be HER MISTAKE? Or Could denying her faith on him be HIS MISTAKE? An accident which drove them apart leaving one with guilt and the other with betrayal, but love in both...... Can the betrayal which represses her soul and the guilt which strangles his existence be obliterated? Will this be a fortunate happenstance.....their serendipity? © cover image - @donmashelen/InstagramComplete
SMILE ✔︎
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021Complete
