[kodachrome]
Life is as intense as you allow it to be. Some people bring overwhelming joy; others leave wounds that never fully close. [kodachrome] is a journal born from that intensity, where healing through words becomes the only way to survive what cannot be forgotten. Rather than blurring pain into shades of gray, this collection paints it in color: memories, almost-loves, resentment, longing, and the quiet aftermath of heartbreak. Like a kodachrome photograph, each piece is vivid and emotional, preserving moments that shaped a soul in an era filled with sadness. This book contains poetry, short stories, and intimate reflections, written as an act of release, a way of forgiving without forgetting, of remembering without losing oneself. * Mostly fictional, inspired by real emotions and past experiences. 📌 Pinterest board: https://pin.it/397dQqEff
My Controversial Secret
COMPLETED 💯 His eyes were serpent blue. Dark and poisonous. A meaning hid behind his gaze when he saw me for the first time. I've heard about sweet butterflies. I have even felt some but with him. It was tremors. Beautiful erotic tremors that burned my whole world after he took a step in. How do I tell him this attraction is too much? How do I face him when he looks at me like I am his meal? An only meal. How do I continue spending my summer in that house knowing he's in the same roof under me? "Lock the doors, Jenna," He had said one night when we were the only ones present in his Beverly Hills Villa. I tipped my head up mustering whatever courage I could gather at the moment to say how this is bad. That it can't happen again. We can't happen because he is my best friend's hot single father.

Stronger Together (bxb) ✔
Even though I'm a mess and I still don't think I'm good enough for him, I want to date him. I haven't managed to scare him off with my panic attacks, mood swings and no touching rules so I don't think that if I tell him about what happened that night he will stop showing interest. ****** Shy, broken Chase wonders if he'll ever be able to love and trust again, if he'll ever get over the trauma of what happened, if he'll ever be happy again. He was a content 24 year old, rooming with his fraternal twin brother Jesse. They literally could not be more different. Jesse is blonde, confident and straightforward; Chase is brunette, shy and innocent. But when tragedy strikes, Chase becomes a shell of the man he once was and Jesse is determined to protect his twin and help him heal.

And will Chase finally be able to overcome his trauma and accept the love of the man of his dreams? If healing, family and romance are themes that interest you, then this book might be for you! WARNING some themes of depression, suicide and rape though I don't go into graphic details.

MATEO || bxb
It only took one summer to change everything. Now Camden is just trying his best to carry on with life like normal, but that's a little tricky when his memories keep haunting and some nights are so bad that sleep evades him completely. He can't even imagine how much worse it would have been if Mateo hadn't been there. But that was the summer before and Mateo's been gone for the whole year since. What happens when Mateo comes home, and how will Cam ever face him again? ___ 'He looked mostly the same as last summer, older maybe, definitely more tanned. He'd grown his hair out a little longer, so it hung lower in his eyes now. I'd seen him post a picture with his hair like that a few months ago and decided to grow mine out too. I wonder when he looked at me, did he see me as I am now, or did he see me as I was then, that night?' ___ TW: sexual assaultComplete
Love, Loss and Lesson: A collection of Truths and Tales
Writing, for me, has always been a sanctuary-a place of refuge, a confidante, a diary where I pour out my heart's secrets. Some of these tales are pieces of my own heart, whispers of my own truths. There's a vulnerability in sharing them, but also a profound liberation. Others are dreams spun from the fabric of my imagination, romanticized echoes of the life I yearn to live, the love stories I long to experience, the adventures I crave and the world I'd like to paint in vibrant colors. With each word I've written in this book, I've poured a part of myself and the people around me. I hope that in these pages, you have found a reflection of your own heart, a spark of recognition and a whisper of shared experience. Thank you for joining me on this journey. ♡︎♡︎♡︎Complete
