"Each of your scars has a story, and I'm more than happy you trust me enough to let me in on those stories..."
When two polar opposites collide-Leo, open-hearted but unsure, and Ace, guarded and haunted by expectations-their chance connection slowly deepens into something more intimate. As trust is built, secrets unravel, and feelings surface, they must navigate not only their own growing bond, but the fears threatening to break it.
Surrounding them are Claire and Alexandra-best friends, reluctant allies, and perhaps mirrors of what healing can look like when you stop running from yourself. With Claire's fierce loyalty and Alexandra's quiet resilience, the four of them learn that relationships-romantic or otherwise-aren't about being perfect, but about being present.
Stir the Tension is a slice-of-life romance about healing, identity and finding warmth in the unexpected, strength in vulnerability, and love in all its messy, complicated forms.
Warm, heartfelt, and quietly powerful, Stir The Tension is a slice-of-life romance that will pull at your heartstrings and remind you what it means to be seen.
Fall into a story where love simmers, friendships evolve, and healing starts with a single honest conversation.

Growing Pains
In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Plan Of Seduction
"I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it.
