What secrets would you keep for the one you love?
5 years ago Lena made a pact with herself that she would never date again. After being left heartbroken by her high school sweet heart, Lena became laser focused on the dream University and then the dream job.
Not getting distracted by boys was easy in a small town. Lena had even made it through her first year at University without falling for any men.
That was until she met Hamish Martin. The ridiculously good looking TA in her intro to Chemistry class.
Lena needing a tutor to pass the class and keep her scholarship makes it even harder to stick to her contractually binding, self-made agreement that no man would ever break her heart again.
As Lena gets closer to Hamish and realizes that he has a fiancé, she finds it hard to let go of the feelings she tried so desperately to fight. To make things more complicated, Hamish seems to be embroiled in secrets any mystery that only draw Lena closer in.
Will getting closer to Hamish force Lena to let her guard down?

Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteComplete
His Sweet Lies
Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface.

In Camera Sessions: Lena's Unravelling
Lena Petras is young, hungry, and ready to shake things up. A first-time delegate at her union's convention, she steps up to the mic, expecting nerves, pushback, maybe even failure. What she doesn't expect is to catch the attention of Valeria Sloane. Tall, striking, effortlessly commanding, Valeria is everything Lena isn't... Yet. A veteran of the movement, she knows when to speak, when to listen, and when to take exactly what she wants. When she pulls Lena into her orbit, it feels like an initiation. Late-night strategy sessions. Cigarillo smoke curling through backroom deals. The heat of whispered conversations behind closed doors. At first, Lena is intoxicated; by the power, by the politics, by the way Valeria watches her like she's something worth keeping. But as their secret relationship deepens, the thrill starts to curdle. The missing glances. The deleted messages. The carefully drawn lines that keep Lena close enough to want more, but never close enough to be hers. But in a world of whispered alliances and unspoken debts, where power is bartered as easily as desire, Lena can't help but wonder. When Valeria tells her to keep their relationship quiet, is it politics, or possession? When she leans in close, is she guiding Lena, or controlling her? When she pulls away, is it because she's afraid of being seen, or because Lena was never meant to be more than a dirty secret? A story of seduction, secrecy, and the price of ambition.Complete
