Everywhere All At Once
Myra lives her life in a loop-school, work, home. The same streets, the same faces, the same quiet routine. It's safe. Predictable. She's spent years convincing herself that comfort is enough, even if it means never chasing what she really wants. Then one rain-soaked evening leaves her dazed on the sidewalk-and waking up in a flower shop owned by a kind stranger and his infuriatingly charming son, Kai. Where Myra hides behind silence and scribbled thoughts, Kai is all laughter and light, the kind of person who turns mistakes into stories and dreams into action. He's everything she isn't-bold, spontaneous, fearless-and somehow, he won't stop showing up. As their paths keep crossing, Myra finds herself pulled into Kai's world of color and chaos, and he finds something grounding in her quiet steadiness. What starts as reluctant company slowly blooms into friendship... and something deeper neither of them were ready for

Unintended Consequences
"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.
