SHADOWS AND BUTTERFLIES
My name is Alexa Fernandez. I used to believe in love-the kind that feels safe, predictable, warm. That's what I had with Steven Cruz. He was perfect. Too perfect. But perfection has a way of hiding its cracks. Behind Steven's gentle smile was a darkness I never saw coming- a truth that would turn my world inside out. Then came Samantha. His cousin. His opposite. She was everything Steven wasn't-wild, unpredictable, and painfully real. With her, I felt things I shouldn't have felt. Things I tried to bury... until they consumed me. Now I'm trapped between two versions of love: One that promises safety, and one that feels like danger-but also, freedom. Because love has consequences. And sometimes, the butterflies that lead you into the light... are the same ones that guide you into the shadows. But in those shadows, I found something else- a truth that was never meant to stay hidden, and a love that refused to die quietly.

Heartsong for Dr. Montgomery (Book 1 Gavine)
What started as a no-strings-attached arrangement between Princess Alexa, the next in line for the British crown, and Gavine, an American Olympian with dreams of medical school, quickly spiraled into something neither of them anticipated. Their casual connection deepened, their emotions caught them off guard, and before long, they realized they were falling for each other--hard. It may sound like a cliché, but the saying about timing is painfully true. Even when you find the right person, the timing doesn't always cooperate. And when your relationship involves the entire British Commonwealth as an uninvited third party, it can be more than a little daunting. But love is never simple. As Alexa grapples with the weight of royal expectations and duty, and Gavine tries to balance her burgeoning career, relentless paparazzi, and meddling friends, their journey becomes one of resilience, self-discovery, and navigating a world determined to keep them apart. This is the first installment in the "Sapphic Starwood Love Series," a sweeping tale of love, ambition, and the courage it takes to rewrite the rules. *** Authors Note: This is an adult novel with sexual female-on-female content.
