Never Summer Again
"What are you left with, if you give up everything you think you know, for love?" LYDIA YOUNG hates her life. She's rich, beautiful, and popular, and dates a future lord, but her only wish is to get as far away from it all as possible. And she would do everything and anything in her power to do so. She's been admitted to a top university and is keeping everything in her life in check, preparing for moving away to Scotland and finally starting anew. Until her best childhood friend, MARK CARTER returns from America and drops into her life like a grenade, about to explode. Devastatingly handsome, grown-up and shroud in mystery, he sucks her into a vortex of love, excitement, and secrets until Lydia is left stranded far, far away from her clearly laid out, preset path. At least, she still has Mark. Or so she thinks. She can tell Mark is hiding something. She just doesn't know what yet. When the grenade finally goes off and Mark's past and Lydia's present catch up with them, Lydia has only one question to ask herself: What are you left with, when you give up everything you think know, for love?

Somewhere Between Then and Now
Arin never meant to fall apart. Not loudly. Not dramatically. Just quietly - one bad day at a time. At fourteen, he feels invisible at home, disconnected at school, and trapped inside a mind that won't slow down. His friends want popularity. His parents want perfection. Arin just wants to breathe. After a night where everything cracks, Arin begins the slow climb back - through music, drawing, new friendships, and the quiet moments that rebuild a person when nobody's watching. A story about breaking, healing, growing, and learning to stand again. Not perfectly. Just honestly. A deeply emotional coming-of-age journey for anyone who's ever felt lost between who they were and who they're becoming.
Once Upon A Bet
A bet. A tape. A betrayal. Two years ago everything crumbled in Nova Jensen's perfect world after trusting her heart to the wrong person only to find out everything was false. All her 'friends', her family... she left it all behind and moved to England with her aunt to end her studies there, away from all the drama. Now she's graduated and has to return her hometown for the summer before college, but is she ready to face the place that broke her? The people that betray her? Is she ready to face Jake Tucker?Completa
Thread Without Needle
Naiyah thought she was living the dream. California sun. A great boyfriend she'd known for years, the kind you move across the country with. An apartment in an artist commune, with a rooftop garden that has a gorgeous view of the river. A job that felt cool enough to brag about. After graduating high school, she moved to Marin, hoping for a new beginning. But the dream frayed fast. The "artist's commune" was more vagabond compound than creative haven. And her boyfriend? Maybe wasn't so great after all. Her "dream job" was more like a nightmare... Nothing was like how she thought it would be. Reality didn't knock. It came flooding in. And with it came the rot, quiet at first, like moisture in the walls, like something you smell before you can see. The rooftop stopped feeling like a refuge. The river turned to sludge. The man she loved began to twist her words, then her sense of self. It wasn't a collapse, it was a slow unthreading. A life held together with hope and borrowed light, now fraying at every seam. She kept patching holes with whatever she could find, but it wouldn't hold. Not with him. Not here. So she left. Now she's stitching her life back together with a thread pulled from her own soul, or from what's left of it. Memory, ruin, and the kind of truth that doesn't ask permission. The "Thread Without Needle" series is for anyone who's ever walked away without apologizing. A story about silent unraveling, reclamation, and the quiet defiance of choosing yourself. Brought together by small mercies, fragmented victories, and soft things found in the wreckage... And what comes after, starting over with nothing... [The first installment of the Thread Without Needle series] [MATURE 18+]Completa
Always, Almost Everything
In the final year of high school, everything is supposed to make sense; your friends, your future, your place in the world. But for one girl, everything begins to unravel just when it should all be coming together. After a sudden breakup and growing distance from her friend group, she's forced to navigate heartbreak, pressure, and the kind of loneliness that no one sees from the outside. As she drifts further from who she used to be, she starts making choices that challenge her values and test the limits of her identity. But healing comes slowly-in quiet moments, new friendships, and unexpected clarity. Told with honesty, heart, and the soft ache of growing up, this is a story about falling apart and finding your way back. It's about the people who leave, the ones who stay, and the version of yourself that you fight to become.Completa
Before You Leave.....
Natalie and Aaron were two halves of a whole, defined by the comfortable, chaotic rhythm of a lifelong friendship. From childhood scrapes to teenage triumphs, they were an inseparable force, their bond so deeply woven into the fabric of their familie's lives that no one ever imagined a world where they wouldn't stand side-by-side. But beneath the easy banter and shared history, a dangerous secret festers: for years, one of them has harbored a silent, consuming unrequited love for the other-a fragile, secret vow never to confess, terrified that the truth would shatter their perfect, protective dynamic. The course of their lives is violently derailed when a sudden, terrifying event-a catastrophic accident, a medical crisis, or a shared trauma-throws them into the path of inevitable change. As one recovers from the brink of oblivion, the boundary between nightmare and reality dissolves, threatening to expose the hidden feelings and forgotten promises. What follows is a tangled web of dark secrets, complex betrayals, and devastating plot twists. As they navigate escalating external dangers and the internal battlefield of their own hearts, their past choices collide with the present. Every attempt they make to save the other, to confess the truth, or to simply go back to the way things were, only serves to push them further toward a heartbreaking climax. Will fate be on their side? Or will they become a beautiful and tragic memory?Completa

Through dreams and quiet moments, she starts to remember pieces of a time she thought she'd outgrown. A boy. A friend group.

As she sorts through the fragments, she begins to realize: healing doesn't always come from forgetting. Sometimes, it comes from remembering. A reflective and emotional coming-of-age story told through memory, loss, and the subtle power of looking back. Based on a true storyCompleta
Admiring the Light
Friendless and timid, Guinevere is stuck in her socially anxious shadow, content to let her sister lead and live a sheltered life. Without Natalie pushing her to break out of her comfort zone, she'd be trapped in fear. The world is scary, even her own family conflicts terrify her; she needs Natalie's support. But what happens when Natalie, her big sister, her mentor and only real friend, suddenly can't be there for every moment of her life? Lola, raised to be a hardworking farmer, when all she wants is a bit of agency over her life, the freedom to do what she wants. And yet, she is perfectly willing to let Natalie handle conversations for her. For as much as she wants to be free, she wouldn't know what to do with herself, get meticulously caught up in planning the details and never end up doing anything. And Natalie, who has no personal desires, simply living in moments and finding the best in whatever is going on. Freely engaging with her friends and helping them, as she lacks her own internal drive, the self awareness to know what she wants. After a long childhood struggle with her self esteem and valuing herself, that has become what she "needs," her coping strategy with rough situations. Being complacent with what happens to her and simply accepting, with no real goals of her own, no idea that her friends are just as directionless as she is. When health complications arise for her, and her friend group is falling apart around her as she can't guide them, she'll have to ask the essential questions that she can't simply answer in a quick sentence. The questions that she has long dismissed as unimportant. Is this what she truly wants, to be solely fulfilled by everyone else depending on her for support? And where does she draw the line? This story touches on potentially triggering content, including the use of slurs, toxic family relationships, anxiety, anger, and death. Any real people, brands or places are only used to further realize the environment.Completa
Lights at the ends of tunnels: Thirty (GxG)
In 1992, Jane lost her best friend in the whole world: her stepsister, María. With her went her emotional centre, her sense of self-worth. But now, maybe, she thinks she may have found her again. But will the reunion be everything she wanted? How will the years apart have changed them? Explicit, with references to self-harm and eating disorders, this is a passionate and emotional read. Praise for Thirty: "Beautiful story. The quick moving plot was still full of detail, heartache, and character development. Thanks for sharing!" author CreatingKate "There's a manic energy to the opening page and I picture Jane rocking, clenching in anguish at losing Maria. That mania that hollowed her out, that fed self-harm, that threaten to snuff her out.. She was lucky to survive and surely it was Maria that kept her going and fuelled the obsessive search? Then what do you do when you meet your salvation? How do you deal with that? Now we know, or at least we know how you lived it. This was so real, it didn't read like fiction. Raw and beautiful. Thank you." author stickygirlCompleta
