Roxy Rae Marshall is a complicated girl. Sure, from the perspective of others she had it all but no book is able to be judged by its cover, not hers anyway. Her cover was delicately crafted with gold thread and the purest of white paper, an angelic glow beaming out of the front pages just begging to be read. But who is she kidding? You think any snobbish kook is going to bother to analyse a book?
And none of them did, sure Rafe Cameron skimmed through a few pages but he was never really the grammatical type. Not in Roxy's story anyway.
But there seemed to be another book on the shelf, one she had missed. This one was tatted, the spine broken, the ink splotched. It seemed to have been picked up by many girls before but only for a night. Then returned again and pushed to the back, out of sight for the young rich girl. Although, the author of this particular book sure as hell was begging to get his hands on her story. To maybe re-write her so called happy ending.
After all, what's a good story without a little mystery?

The Truths We Accept
(Second book to "The Lies We Resist") Maeve Kingston and Noah Harrington were never supposed to fall in love. Born into powerful, wealthy families, their arranged marriage was nothing more than a calculated move-a business deal wrapped in vows and public appearances. But somewhere between the fights and the forced smiles, between the late-night confessions and stolen moments, something real took root. Something neither of them were ready for. And then, just as quickly, it all fell apart. Now, a few years after their breakup, they're nothing more than polished strangers in the same social circles. At least, that's what Noah tells himself when he sees Maeve again at a high-profile event-when her blue eyes still pull him in like they used to, when his name still sounds different in her mouth. He's moved on. He's sure of it. Until she looks at him and says, I miss you. Torn between the love they ruined and the distance they built, Maeve and Noah are forced to face the wreckage of what they once had. Can something broken be pieced back together, or were they always meant to fall apart? A story of love, loss, and the people we can't quite let go of, this book is a slow-burn, second-chance romance filled with aching tension, quiet longing, and two people who are trying-and failing-to forget each other.
The deserted island
Heyyy, nice to have you stop by ;) This story is about a group of young people aged 17-20 who wash up on a deserted island.🏝️ They are good friends, but over time they start to notice tensions rising within the group. It happens that several of the guys fall for the same girl, and things go completely wrong. - Juliette often stays close to Emiel, since they're a couple, but her gaze keeps drifting towards Victor, whose sharp humor and self-assured attitude unknowingly intrigue her. She has a slight fear of Victor. - Emiel is Juliette's partner and would do anything to protect her. He's quite jealous, but only when necessary. He's a real man, not a boy. - Victor occasionally throws a challenging look at Emiel, as if silently daring him. Emiel feels more and more uncomfortable. Victor is very smart and cunning, and he would do anything to win Juliette over, convincing her that Emiel isn't right for her, but that he himself is. Victor is the most unreliable, clever, and sly guy. He has his eye on Juliette but makes it all too obvious. He must and will convince her to be with him, showing her that he's the only right one... though that's not actually the case. - Robbe is the smart one in the group. - Gina is clairvoyant. - Amber, who watches all of this unfold, often plays calming melodies on her harp. She has an intuitive gift to sense when tensions rise, and her music usually keeps the group in balance. There is romance, violence, and coarse language, so sensitive readers are warned!! For each sensitive scene, there will be a "T.W.⚠️" present, which will also close with "End of T.W.⚠️". I hope you enjoy the story and give it a chance! Hopefully, I'll get some feedback to guide me. Love you 💕 Lynn x

Just Me Against the World
Lara has always lived in the shadows, convinced she isn't enough. The world feels overwhelmingly loud, too vivid, and far too big for someone like her. She hides from attention, avoids risks, and sees herself through a lens of self-doubt, her flaws magnified and her worth invisible. Life in the background feels safer, even if it means missing out on connection and joy. When a group project pairs her with Nathan, her confident and charismatic classmate, Lara's carefully guarded world begins to shift. Nathan exudes ease and charm, surrounded by friends whose laughter and effortless connection make her feel even more out of place. Yet, his quiet kindness and surprising attentiveness draw her in, challenging her belief that she doesn't belong. For the first time, Lara begins to wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's not as invisible as she thought. As she spends more time with Nathan and his friends, Lara slowly starts to open up. Their warmth chips away at her defenses, but it also forces her to confront her fears. She struggles with feelings of inadequacy and questions whether she's truly deserving of the attention and affection she's receiving.

Encouraged by her steadfast best friend Bea and Nathan's quiet support, Lara begins the painful but necessary journey toward self-acceptance. It's a battle fought not against others but within herself. She starts to realize that her worth isn't defined by perfection or others' opinions but by embracing who she truly is. Lara's story is one of identity, courage, and breaking free from self-imposed limitations. It's about stepping out of the shadows and discovering that the hardest battles often lead to the brightest transformations. Will she claim her place in the world or retreat to the safety of the background?Complete
