It's been one year since everything went wrong. One year since his life was turned upside down and the life he knew was shattered. Zayden is a mess. A complete mess. Life has never been easy for him but he managed because he always had his brother by his side. His brother, Onyx, who made all the sacrifices and did everything he could to protect him. Only he knows how he did it.
Now that he's home for the summer, Zayden is determined to try piecing himself back together. But, of course, it's not easy at all. Home is where all his problems began. Home is where his demons thrive. It's the one place where he can't escape his memories.
Maybe he's too broken to be fixed. Maybe he's too lost to be found.
His best friend Dewi thinks otherwise. Zayden isn't lost or broken. He's simply on a journey back to himself.

[ 𝐒𝐄𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐋 1 ] Because this is where love fades, and hate resides and intensifies, broken hearts produce the most tragic stories. Their treachery is told through their bleeding hearts: their unrequited love was never reciprocated. These stories only serve to devastate. Ruins can take lives, destroy people's hopes, and then bring comfort. In other people's ruin. But the question is, can you be happy and sane if your love forgets you for a night? Not at all, right? Ada Sharma is a courageous, fearless girl who has put up with her father's violence for years in order to protect someone she has never seen but believes is still alive. Vidyut Agarwal demonstrated vulnerability in real life. He believed that there is no such thing as love in this world, only lust. But she will make him reveal his feelings, proving him wrong. They've loathed each other for years, but destiny is pushing them to love and kiss in order to heal each other's scars. Either now, or never. But what if his hatred for her suddenly becomes his possession? Will she embrace him for who he is, or will something horrible happen to make her forget his existence?

VICIOUS TREACHERY
Book one from TALES OF SINS series ___________________________________ AARAV I watched as she drove away from the cathedral but unlike her words there was no sign of charity or donations around. What else would a person go to the church for? To repent for their sins? To pray for good health and life? Or to express their gratitude? I have visited many holy places in my life but none of those visits were for those reasons. Every time I stepped in front of God, I always had the feeling of frustration crawl into my mind and body. I always had many unanswered questions but no one around me could answer them. Each one of them is biassed, unaware of the truth, how would they answer my questions? How will they justify my rage? So, I decided to find the answers myself. It was all good until I ended up into a deal, the kind that would cost me my sanity. At first i thought i could survive her presence but soon i realised i would only survive in her presence. ___________________________________ MIRA I was all set to live my life freely until the word 'marriage' interrupted my dreams. All my life I had lived for others and finally I had gotten the chance to explore the world. A chance that was again snatched from me. My father was anything but a loving father who would care for his children, he never asked me what I wanted, always commanding and ordering around and I hated my mother who had taught me to shut my mouth when he spoke. Maybe because I was a girl, he never cared for me like he cared for Kartik, my sibling. I was a child who wanted to be loved, seen and a child whom the parents would take pride in yet it didn't matter whatever I did, I was always unnoticed by my parents. Everyone would tell me that I was good at anything I did but I wanted my father to say that he was proud of me and that day, it never came. Now I have mastered the art of going unnoticed but then he came into my life and revived the dying hope in my heart.

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.Complete

Loving Zach (MxM)
Sometimes you need just one person to make all the difference in the world. And even better if you get a whole family of them. Zach's been living in his car for a month now. He has nowhere to go, no job and his money is starting to run out. Life has been rough on him, growing up in an abusive home and later in life becoming the center of a vile man's attention. Just as he thinks his life is never getting better, he meets the charming business owner Dean. Zach is a broken boy and has nothing to offer to a successful businessman who's so handsome he could be on a magazine cover. But life has a way of putting the right person in your path even if you didn't know you were on the one. This is a finished, full length (80k words), slow burn romance about learning to trust, falling in love and healing after life has beaten you down. !Trigger warning: This story deals with child neglect, child abuse, domestic violence and rape. I wasn't overly descriptive about these situations, but they are still a big part of the story. !Explicit sexual scene. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner.
