"Closer to God" delves into the separate lives of Mary Jane, the preacher's daughter, and Ryder Wilson, the town's labeled "bad boy." Every Sunday, Mary Jane dutifully serves at her small-town church, while her weeks are filled with volunteer work at the local animal shelter. Despite their shared childhood bond, Ryder's troubled past, marked by abandonment and responsibility thrust upon him at a young age, drove a wedge between them as he spiraled into a life of addiction. But when Ryder unexpectedly confesses his love for Mary Jane, it sets off a chain of events that challenges Mary's perceptions of faith, redemption, and the power of unconditional love. As Mary Jane grapples with her own beliefs and societal expectations, she finds herself drawn closer to Ryder, embarking on a journey where the lines between right and wrong blur, and the true essence of forgiveness is tested. "Closer to God" is a tale of love, redemption, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

Learning To Love
Seventeen-year-old Ellie Carter is no stranger to change-or loss. After years of bouncing through foster homes, the only constant in her life has been her older sister, Harley. When Harley turns twenty and decides they both need a fresh start, the sisters pack their lives into an old car and head west, landing in a small desert town in Arizona. For Ellie, the move means another new house, another new school, and the same old feeling of not belonging. The first few weeks are rough-sunburned days, silent lunches, and the ache of missing the familiar-even if the familiar was never really home. Then she meets Ryder Hayes, a well known, "bad boy" classmate with a reputation and a past no one dares to ask about. Ryder's trouble, that much everyone says. And Ellie's learned to steer clear of trouble. But when unexpected circumstances lead them to spend time together, Ellie discovers that Ryder's bad-boy image hides more pain than rebellion-and that maybe he understands her loneliness better than anyone else ever has. As walls begin to crack and secrets surface, Ellie must decide if opening her heart again is worth the risk. Because sometimes the hardest part of starting over isn't leaving the past behind-it's letting someone in.Terminé

Under the Storm
Rain Foxx has spent most of her life fighting against the world, and herself. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder at a young age, she's used to people seeing her as "trouble." With a sharp tongue, a bruised heart, and a past full of secrets, Rain keeps everyone at arm's length - until she meets Ryder Stone. Ryder is the kind of guy who never plays by the rules. With a reputation for trouble, a history of bad decisions, and a temper to match, he's the last person anyone expects to open up. He doesn't believe in anything - not love, not redemption, and certainly not the emotional baggage of someone like Rain. But when their worlds collide, something shifts. Rain is unlike anyone he's ever met - raw, real, and unapologetic about her brokenness. For the first time in a long time, Ryder can't look away. He doesn't want to care, but he does. He doesn't want to get involved, but somehow, he can't stay away. As their relationship intensifies, the lines between love and chaos blur. Ryder's demons are darker than Rain could ever imagine, and her mental health is an unpredictable storm. Together, they are a whirlwind of passion, pain, and self-destruction. But as they lean on each other, they both realize that sometimes, you have to face your worst fears to find the person who will make you feel whole. Will their love be the storm that breaks them, or the force that helps them rebuild? In the battle between sanity and madness, can they find peace in each other's arms, or will the world tear them apart before they can truly learn how to love?

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he?
