Mira Thompson didn't ask for her life to fall apart, but here she is. Grieving and guarded, she transfers to a new college to outrun everything she's been avoiding.
She's definitely not looking for him.
Rowan Campbell is all chaos-loud, nosy, way too charming for his own good. The kind of guy who gets under your skin just by breathing. Mira's spent months keeping her heart on lockdown, and somehow, he's the one person who makes her forget why she built walls in the first place.
She's scared to feel again. He's not scared of anything. And when they collide? It's messy, intense, and the first thing that's made Mira feel alive in a long time.

Things Change (boyxboy)✔️
//Complete\\ "Do you really want to waste this opportunity? When you're looking back in fifty years time, don't you think you're gonna regret not giving something that could've been beautiful a chance just because you were scared?" ~~~ Rowan Cullen is a walking disaster. He is a socially awkward, anxious mess and he knows it. Kyrie Nixon is a self titled "cool guy" who tries to avoid Rowan at all costs, especially at school. The two have never got on, having been forced to practically live together for most of their lives by their parents. Rowan isn't sure why Kyrie despises him so much. Kyrie puts it down to how annoying he is. But with their two friendship groups merging together, a bed they have to share every night, and the lack of a real reason to hate one another, they find themselves growing closer than they ever thought they'd be. ~started 21/03/21~ ~finished 04/07/21~Complete

Worse for Love- Book #3 in the WF Series
Love. A word that never made sense to Ivy Blanchard. Yes, she helps all of her friends with every relationship because she wants to see them happy, but she never really believed in the exaggerated picture of what "love" is. Trusting someone completely by opening up to them has never really amused her, and maybe that's because of what she went through as a little girl. When one day, she gets drunk and calls Kai Hale; one of her cousin's friends, to come and get her, it escalates into a fake relationship that neither of them expected. To convince her friend that she doesn't need help finding love, she decides to create a fake relationship with Kai. Although, the lie only begins to lead into other things that neither one of them realized or were prepared for. Kai is the exact opposite of Ivy. Smiling is second nature to him, and love is definitely something he's always believed in, he just doesn't have enough time for it with his complicated schedule. When Ivy and him begin getting close though, he realizes there definitely is something happening, but convincing Ivy that it's okay to let someone in is harder than he thought it would be. Will he actually get over the wall she's built since she could remember?Complete
alone, together
Rowan Cassidy has a plan: survive senior year, get the scholarship, and don't fall apart. He doesn't have time for distractions - especially not Killian Vale, his infuriatingly beautiful neighbour who's made a career out of ruining his life one sarcastic remark at a time. They've "hated" each other for years. Allegedly. On paper. Except it's the kind of hate that pauses in the air between them. That stares too long. That sounds a hell of a lot like something else when no one's looking. Killian is chaos in a leather jacket. Rowan is order in calloused palms and colour-coded binders. They're opposites, always have been - but when a series of late nights, care-filled actions, and too-close-to-honest arguments start to peel back their seemingly failing defence mechanism, Rowan's perfectly managed world starts to spiral. And maybe the person he's spent years fighting is the only one who actually sees him. Sharp-tongued, slow-burning, and emotionally messy - this is not your typical love story. It's worse. It's theirs. A classic, almost clichéd frenemies-to-lovers tale; one gloriously inconvenient love story.
