The Wedding Plan
What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship?

TWISTED FATE (Twisted Path Book 1)
He was born to rule. She was forged in fire. But falling in love might be their undoing. I know how to survive. I've been doing it since the day my mother taught me to hide in closets and wait for the monsters to pass. Trusting people? Loving them? That's how you get broken. So when Shane Montgomery-Mr. Golden Boy with his perfect smile and world of privilege-offered to help me, I didn't believe him. Why would someone like him care about someone like me? I'm barely holding my life together-working double shifts, sleeping too little, chasing a future no one thinks I deserve. But Shane is relentless. Not just with tutoring or grades, but with me. With seeing me. Touching the parts of me I've kept buried because needing someone is dangerous. And wanting him? That's a cliff I can't afford to fall from. Still... I'm slipping. Because when he looks at me like I'm his everything-like I'm the only thing he needs, like our love is fated, written into the very fabric of the universe-I almost believe him. And if I allow myself to fall-really fall-it won't just be into his arms. It'll be straight into the wreckage of everything I've fought so hard to survive. In the first installment of the Twisted Path Series, opposites collide, secrets unravel, and two star-crossed lovers cling to each other in a world determined to tear them apart.Complete
Ava
Here's a for you story 🌸 It's catchy, emotional, and written to grab attention - --- ### **Story Description:** Ava just wanted a quiet senior year - no drama, no attention, no disasters. But fate clearly didn't get the memo. First, she nearly gets *hit by a car* on her way to school (and somehow makes a new friend out of it). Then, before she can even recover from that near-death morning, she trips in the hallway straight into the arms of a boy she's *never seen before* - the kind of boy who smirks like he knows all your secrets. Kian Rivers. Tall. Infuriating. Way too confident. And apparently, everywhere she turns. What starts as a clumsy encounter spirals into something neither of them can ignore. Between chaotic parties, whispered teasing, and unspoken tension, Ava finds herself caught between irritation and attraction - and maybe, something dangerously in between. Because sometimes, the people you collide with by accident are the ones you were meant to find all along. ---
Second Chances At Love
Savant Awards Winner #16 in mystery romance on 10.08.2022 #14 in womenpower When 29-year-old Hannah married 36-year-old Albert, one of the richest people in the world she was already numb. After marriage, she also got a rebellious teenage stepson as a side gift. How will these 3 misfit people live together under the same roof and become an awkwardly sweet family? ********************************************* "Why don't you give me and yourself a chance?" He asked. "Maybe because I do not have anything else to live for" She replied "Then let's build things to love a lifetime for." He replied with determination. "I won't think of you as my real mother, but don't worry, I'll be a good son" Chimed in her stepson. Love is not always sweet, at first sight, and during college or office. Love can also be encountered by chance in the most pessimistic scenarios. It can be your last salvation when you have nothing to hold on to. She was already dead inside, so the addition of two virtual people did not bother her already stagnant life much. But the peace did not last for long. She wanted to get through life quietly but life had other plans for her. With the addition of this 2 cold-looking but soft-hearted people in her life she slowly regained some purpose to live. She started the things which she had left before and stood on her own two feet. Her husband complained one day. "I heard about something you mentioned outside, that men only care more when they're older? So? Are you complaining that I'm old now?" Hannah said, "Wait, listen to me!" **************** The story will be long and detailed with lots of family moments and some dry humour added in here and there. This is not the cliché love at first sight story, but it will be very sweet. Updates:weekly.Complete
