Mature

Ayla Pezzino thought she had it all. A successful career as a marketing executive in New York City, a new man by her side, and a fresh start after the heartbreak that shattered her world six years ago. But when she receives the devastating news that her best friend, Sage Lawson, has passed away, Ayla's carefully rebuilt life is thrown into chaos. Returning to West Hartford for the funeral, she comes face to face with the last person she expected to see: Seth Castro.

Seth, now a successful family lawyer and an eligible bachelor, has long since moved on from his painful breakup with Ayla. But seeing each other at Sage's funeral, the past suddenly feels closer than ever. As they mourn their best friend, Ayla, and Seth are forced to confront the emotions and unfinished business that have haunted them for years.

Caught between the lives they've built and the memories they can't escape, Ayla and Seth must decide if the spark that once ignited their love is worth reigniting or if some flames are better left in the past.

DREA (GxG) by xJadesx

Mrs Julia Robinson, the wife of American figure skating Olympian Adrian Robinson, is nervous about finally meeting her husband's family. After two years of marriage living in Amsterdam, they've decided it's time to move back to Virginia and give Julia the opportunity to meet the rest of her husband's family. The most important of them all is his close sister and best friend, Adreanna Jones. The flight to Virginia was long, but the car ride to Adreanna's house was short. Despite the short distance, the couple never made it there. Julia wakes up in a hospital, broken and alone. She learnt that they'd been in an accident that claimed her husband's life and sent her into a coma for 12 days. Heartbroken, depressed and disabled, she found herself stranded in a foreign country with no one to lean on. Or so she thought. Adreanna loved her brother more than anyone in the world. He was her father, mother, and best friend. He was her everything. Then he was gone. Julia was the closest thing left to her brother. Adreanna's intentions were to just get to know the woman her brother married, look after her on his behalf until she could look after herself again and eventually return home. But life wiped out those plans before they even cemented as the two women, in a time of hurt and grief, seeking closure, companionship and love, formed a bond they didn't even realise was growing until it was too late. Now they're stuck at a crossroads, having to decide between love and ethics. The sequel to Drea is out now. It is called Mrs Jones. You can find it on my profile. <3
