The summer of her senior year marked the beginning of the tragedy. Andrea Rowan's heart was completely shattered when she found her twin brother's lifeless body on the bathroom floor. A part of her died that day and she hasn't been the same since.
Faking smiles, forcing laughs and drowning in her sorrows, she let the the depths of darkness consume her. She became numb.
Walking in a ghost town with memories haunting her endlessly, she finds herself trapped. Suffocated.
But when betrayal and death pile up on her shoulders, questions and questions rush into her mind like a tsunami. Drowning her in the process. She has yet to discover the secrets, the lies, the bodies...lying right in front of her.
And with the thousand and one question too many on her mind, she constantly circles back to one in particular...Will she be next?

Falling for Death
Book 1 in The Life and Death Duet This is the story of a boy who didn't think he could ever love somebody and a girl who definitely didn't believe in the idea of it. The story of Ace Morano and Harper Santos. They went from childhood friends to complete strangers due to an accident that cost them her memories of him and a broken heart on his part. Years later, they become friends. She now only knows him as the boy who's been known to be ruthless and cold, not the boy she'd known long ago. Could he help her remember? They were complete opposites, yet alike in some ways, but still got pulled together by an invisible yet strong force... Love. Was that enough? And most importantly, would that change both of their perspectives on it? Two souls living two completely different lives. With different pasts. With secrets they both refused to reveal. Could they make it? Will she fall for death before he can catch her? _______________________________ "Harper." he stated, blankly. His deep voice almost gave me a heart attack. I looked at him, slightly shocked. Wait- How does he know my name? Is he going to kill me? I gulped. "Ace." I muttered quietly and looked away, back to the river view. I sighed, taking it all in again. ©2021.

Lovesick
"I think I'm going to be sick," I mutter, numbingly watching the newlyweds as they seal the deal of being legally bound. My stomach twists in protest. Kehlani Moore is not your typical seventeen-year-old. She hated the idea of love. Maybe not all love-she still believed in the kind her dad had for her and her brother, Brock-but romantic love? That was a different story. Her mother had left their family without a real reason, simply claiming she didn't feel like she was in the right place. That had been the first blow. Her last relationship had been the second. It all added up to the conclusion that love was a game, one she refused to play anymore. She's come to the grand conclusion that she better start collecting her cats like yesterday. On a summer trip to visit her grandmother, Kehlani and her best friend end up crashing a wedding-thanks to a mischievous suggestion from her nan. There, she unexpectedly crosses paths with someone she hasn't seen in two years. A reckless, but undeniably gorgeous decision standing in front of her once again-this time, saving her from being kicked out. But when the same guy moves in next door just a week later, Kehlani finds herself in deeper waters than she ever anticipated.

He is handsome, older and everything about him tells her to stay away from him. He is nothing like anyone she has ever met before. He is far from anyone she would ever date. Even the rumors about him being violent in the past and being far from a good guy should push her away. Nevertheless, her attraction to him is inedible. And his curiosity for her is just as irresistible. His green eyes pull her to him. They start up a secret affair. It is supposed to be simple. For him, his terms are simpler. To have sex with no future possibilities and for no one to find out. For her, nothing is as simple as that.

This is a messy and frustrating situation for either one of them. Yet none of them can let go. She decides to jeopardize her heart. He decides to jeopardize his past. This whole affair is hanging on a fragile thread that will eventually break. But when it does, will it shatter what they have or are they too far lost in each other?Complete
Dear Skylar (Completed)
WARNING: R-RATED MATURE CONTENT Gabe stalks towards me, and I back away until my back hits his door. He puts both his hands up against the door trapping me. "Admit it Skylar, you feel something between us," he purrs. "N-no I don't," I lie. "Your lying," he calls me out. "And now that I know there's a chance, I'm not letting go of you that easy." "W-what is that supposed to mean?" "It means my baby brother better watch his back, cause he now has competition." "You're crazy," I look at him in disbelief. "Crazy for you," he breaths against my mouth. He catches me off guard by wrapping his hand around the back of my neck and pulls me into him, crashing his lips to mine. He tongue gets access to mine and he presses his body against me, making it harder for me to break free. No way, I'm not giving in this time. I push him off of me and slap him across the face.

So This Is Love
(Sequel to Our Fake Relationship) Love was never meant to be simple. It was messy, unpredictable, and, at times, utterly heartbreaking. But despite the pain, despite the uncertainty, it was always worth it. Every argument, every moment of doubt, every tear shed-it all became insignificant in the presence of the one person who felt like home. Jared and Ashely had been through it all. What started as a *fake* relationship had unraveled into something real, something raw. After endless denial, unspoken feelings, and battles against their own emotions, they finally admitted the truth-they were in love. And for a while, it seemed like they had found their happy ending. But love never stayed still. It didn't settle just because they wanted it to. Then, *he* arrived. Unexpected. Uninvited. And suddenly, everything that once felt certain became clouded with doubt. He brought a shift, a pull she didn't understand-an unfamiliar feeling that both thrilled and terrified her. It was something she had never experienced before, something she never thought she *could* feel. And with that, the questions began. *What is this? What does it mean?* And worst of all-*had she truly been sure of her heart all along?* So, this was love. A chaotic, gut-wrenching, soul-shaking journey that forced her to face the most impossible choice of all. Yeah. That sounded about right. (Sequel to Our Fake Relationship)
