Marigold Conrad and Dahlia Harper were born together, but life tore them apart.
Raised thousands of miles away from each other, the two girls lived completely different lives. Marigold grew up on a quiet Montana ranch, surrounded by family but shaped by grief and betrayal. Sweet, shy, and full of quiet dreams, she buried her passion for fashion design under the weight of toxic friendships and a heartbreak that shattered her trust. In New York for college at Columbia University and feeling more lost than ever, Marigold's life takes a turn when she's dragged to a party she never wanted to attend.
Dahlia, meanwhile, lives boldly on the sunny California coast. Raised in a beach house and fiercely pursuing her dream of becoming a marine biologist also at Columbia University, she's fiery, confident, and fearless-never afraid to speak her mind or protect the people she loves. When she attends a party with her best friends over Thanksgiving break, she never expects to come face-to-face with a girl who looks exactly like her-except with darker hair.
One moment. One meeting. One shared flower-shaped birthmark. And everything changes.
Shocked and curious, the girls dig into their pasts and uncover a truth that shakes them to the core: they are identical twins, separated at birth and adopted into completely different worlds. United by fate, they begin a journey to uncover the mystery of their birth family-why they were separated, what really happened, and who their parents were.
As they untangle the threads of their past, Marigold and Dahlia forge a bond neither time nor distance could break. Along the way, they find not only each other but also their courage, their voices-and a love neither of them expected.

Sweetheart
[COMPLETE] 18+ (but if you're not 18, I won't tell on you) --- It had been a mistake. It had all happened so fast. The look on her parents' faces when they found out had been devastating. Perhaps that was why she didn't complain when they decided to send her to a small village in Canada, away from the chaotic and luxurious Los Angeles, with the excuse of being an exchange student for a year. Grace Castle was more than happy to welcome Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wright in her modest house, along with her son Nate and, well, Aaron. It had been 2 years since Grace had taken in the troubled 18-year-old boy, after the tragedy that had occurred to him and his family. Dark and untamable like smoke, Aaron was the exact opposite of Lizzie, groomed to be the perfect woman, always following the rules, and stepping out of line only that one time. One time that cost her a year away from her old city, far away from curious ears and judging eyes. A year that was going to change her life completely, tumbling into a den of lions ready to devour her as soon as they had her in their pack as one of their own. He would not let her have it easy. It was time for sweet, docile Lizzie to face the world and its snakes. He'd make sure of that. Though... was he sure she was not just yet another wolf in a sheep's clothing? Was her heart as pure as he believed, or could it be shaded with swirls of gray smoke like his? ---Complete

Holding Back [COMPLETED]
"I love how this book is turning out!😍 Not cliche at all!" - i_hatecliche "We might live next door to each other," Haley said, "but we don't live in the same world." Hooking her fingers around her backpack straps, she walked away from Jace. She had barely gone a few steps before he was at her side again. "What makes you believe we don't live in the same world?" he asked. "As far as I can tell, we do." "No, we don't. I'm...me and you're Jace Cortez. The dream of every girl. The friend to every guy. The star of the school. Girls. Sports. You're the ultimate player." "It sounds like you have a preconceived notion of who I am." "And it's one that has yet to be proven wrong." From books and a lifetime of sitting on the sidelines, Haley is convinced she knows how the world works, specifically high school. Everyone has a label and a box they fit in. This knowledge, paired with parents who are fighting, a brother leaving soon for college and a best friend who moved away has made her decide to never get involved. It will take being forced to work with her fellow juniors on a project, a boy next door with a infectious smile, a star gazer with an adorable puppy, and an unlikely pair of fangirls to make her see how truly wrong she was about everything.
