Myra Clarice Alinas is a hopeless romantic who's always waiting for the next guy to sweep her off her feet but always stumbles when finally faced with love, quite literally...
At 18, she was in the high school gymnasium when Alexei Ambré walked in and she tripped on her own two feet, falling off the treadmill.
At 19, she was staring at a flower shop across the street when she collided with a pole and fell back on Eli Medina, who was on his way to his part time job.
At 20, she got so drunk at her friend's party that she slipped on the stairs and landed at the bottom of Elijon Villarosa's basement.
Finally, at 21, she decided it would be her year clean of any more clumsy incidents with love. Except, Mikhail Ambrosio didn't quite sweep her off her feet. In fact, she got tired of waiting and decided she would be the one to do grand, romantic, gestures. Until she realized he wasn't the soulmate she was looking for.
Now at 24, Clarice is still single and catching flights, while friend after friend pop up with their engagement rings. She starts to wonder if there was anything she was doing wrong for her love life to turn out like this. Can fate truly have no one left for her? Or did she simply pass him by and didn't notice he was 'the one' after all?

To her luck, the first step to moving on starts ten years in the past, when she has to go to her ten year high school reunion.

Yet he can't seem to shake his friends and family off his back to settle down. She said she'd never go back to the man who broke her heart ten years ago, but when they get locked in the janitors closet together at their 10 year high school reunion, they strike up a deal.

She wanted a fresh start, but is her fresh start with her ex high school sweetheart? Quote from the book: "He looked nothing short of beautiful, his features sharp and strong-willed, but when he broke out into a grin his features softened into feminine beauty. Two completely opposite sides of a sword, yet both struck me somewhere in the same place that hadn't forgotten about him all these years." ***still undergoing edits!!!*** ***trigger warning: domestic violence, strong language, sexual contents***
Finally Free
"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes.

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book. It shows you how they both work on changing for the better, while trying to overcome the obstacles in their relationship and fight for each other till the end. ** Warning!!

She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.

❝Alia, I wanna try again. You and me. I've been thinking about you crazy and if we don't date I might just bust a gut.❞ ❝Well I don't want you to hurt yourself.❞ Alia smirked, leaning in. Alia Mendoza was Jesus's first real love-bright, artistic, and full of fire. But just as their connection began to deepen, Alia was abruptly pulled out of his life when her conservative parents forced her to move away, fearing her growing bond with the Foster family and Jesus's influence. What they didn't know was that the two never really stopped talking. For months, Jesus and Alia have secretly stayed in touch through late-night phone calls, private texts, and heartfelt video chats. So when Alia suddenly returns to town for her sophomore year-enrolling at Anchor Beach-Jesus sees it as their second chance. He's ready to pick up where they left off, only this time, he's determined to make it real: no more sneaking around, no more hiding. But love the second time around isn't so simple. Alia's home life is still tense, and her parents have strict expectations. Jesus is still recovering from his traumatic brain injury, struggling with impulse control, anger, and frustration-things he tries to hide from her.

As the past crashes into the present, Jesus and Alia must decide if their love can survive the complications that drove them apart in the first place.

NEVER FORGET YOU
(Rewriting) She loved him quietly. He loved her without courage. One truth changed the course of their lives. Kavya Thakur never believed in fairytales, not until the quiet boy in her class finally confessed what he had been carrying for years. For a brief, fragile moment, life felt simple. Almost kind. Then an accident shattered everything. Grief arrived in waves, taking away the people she loved, one by one. Just when Kavya believed she had learned how to survive loss, someone new entered her life and brought with them a betrayal she never saw coming. A betrayal that hurt deeper than love ever could. It changed her. Hardened her. Taught her how to guard her heart instead of offering it freely. Five years later, fate brings her face to face with her first love again. But Kavya is no longer the girl he remembers. She is guarded, bruised by the past, and certain that some things cannot be rebuilt. He refuses to believe that. As buried secrets resurface and old wounds reopen, they must confront the question they never truly answered the first time. Can love survive betrayal, silence, and the weight of everything left unsaid? Or were they always meant to become a memory rather than a future?Complete
