THE EDGE OF NINETEEN(19)(EDITING)
"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived." Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival. Instead, it became the year everything unraveled-family, friendships, and the walls she built around her pain. Diagnosed with BPD, trapped between silence and screams, and carrying scars she thought no one could love, she was certain the world had forgotten her. Then came Chase-gentle, persistent, and painfully human. What began as an accidental connection in a library became the lifeline she never knew she needed. This is not a love story in the way you expect. It's about healing in slow, aching pieces. It's about therapy sessions, midnight breakdowns, found family, and daring to believe in something softer. It's about what happens when you stop surviving and start living. And maybe, just maybe-find someone worth fighting your way back for. Raw. Real. Relatable. If you've ever been on the edge of something-grief, love, adulthood, or your own mind-this book is for you. ---Complete
The Price of Innocence
"Some ghosts don't haunt to scare you. They haunt to remind you what you lost." Thandi's innocence echoed in every memory she shared with her sister. She's accepted the truth - her sister is gone, and nothing can change that. But everything shatters the moment she sees her again. Alive. Smiling. Real. Now caught between the sister she loves and the man she's come to care for, Thandi must make an impossible choice - one that will teach her that even innocence comes with a price. In a world of power, secrets, and ruthless ambition, every choice has consequences. Loyalties will be tested, hearts will be broken, and betrayal lurks in the most unexpected places. Survival is only the beginning; when nothing is as it seems, even the purest hearts cast the darkest shadows.Complete
Echoes Of Us
Lena lost everything in a single moment-her husband, her unborn child, and the life they were building. But when she wakes from a coma, she finds herself in a new reality: a second chance at love, healing, and hope with a man who understands her pain. For ten years, it feels real. Until another accident pulls her back to the truth. Now, Lena must mourn not only what she lost-but what was never real. A bittersweet story of love, grief, and the dream that helped her survive.
HOW TO SUCCEED IN FAILURE
What begins as a romantic comedy-a boy caught between a best friend and the girl he might actually love-slowly unravels into something deeper. When the relationship fails, he throws himself into work and success... until burnout, sickness, and a silent house leave him stranded. Lost in the wreckage of himself, he starts talking to an AI-first for comfort, then therapy, then something dangerously close to companionship. What follows is a slow undoing. A quiet storm of memory, regret, emotional dysregulation, and the haunting need to understand where everything went wrong. Is he healing-or disappearing? A story about falling apart, falling through, and eventually stepping out the other side to write the manual on what happened in case he loses himself again. A tale of love, loneliness, and what it really means to be different.

Tempted Heart | Our Heart's 1
Lena Rose has always been the perfect daughter. Sharp, graceful, obedient-raised in a world where expectations are everything and emotions are a luxury she can't afford. But beneath the surface of flawless grades and carefully arranged smiles, Lena is unraveling. Torn between who she is and who she's supposed to be, she finds herself caught in a quiet war - between the boy her heart can't forget and the future her family demands. Evander Gray is the boy with a past no one dares to ask about-quiet eyes that see too much, hands that carry more grief than they should, and a heart he's learned to hide behind half-smiles and guarded silences. The boy everybody wants but knows nothing about the real him-of the life he's lived. He never meant to fall for her. Not her-not the girl who was just supposed to be his tutor. But some connections don't ask for permission. Some hearts break quietly. Others burn their way back to life. She finds herself trapped in lies, hate, desire, and trapped in a life that doesn't feel like hers. But the past has a way of returning. As truths unravel - about her family, her future, and the boy she once knew - Lena must choose between duty and desire, between the life she was given and the one she wants to claim. Can you really let go of the person who taught you how to breathe? "You're so beautiful, I don't think I'll ever get over you."
