After her mother's death, Solai left Brooklyn, thinking that distance would help her heal. But now, she's back-and nothing feels the same. Her dad's jazz club, The Blue Note, is still alive with energy, but something's missing. Solai's always been the quiet observer-her dad, a celebrated poet, had always been in the spotlight. She's never followed in his footsteps, even though she's been writing under an alias-*LyricalSol*-on PoemBodies, a small account with just three followers and a few likes here and there.
She never expected one of those followers to be Dom, the poet who performs every Saturday at The Blue Note. His words have always hit home, but he's never known her as the girl behind the poems.
Now, back in Brooklyn, Solai is caught between the past she's tried to leave behind and the future she's afraid to embrace. Will Dom be the one to finally pull her out of the shadows, or will the secrets she's been hiding keep her from everything she's meant to find?

Ink Don't Lie
He left a mark I never asked for. Now he wants to finish the piece. Amina Westbrook didn't choose motherhood. But when her younger sister dropped a baby and disappeared, Amina stepped up, raised that little girl as her own, and never looked back. Seven years later, the past comes tatted, cocky, and fine as hell-standing in the grocery store with the same hypnotic eyes her daughter sees in the mirror. Santiago Vega. Zuri's father. The man who left before he ever knew she existed. Now he wants in. He wants time. Forgiveness. A chance to be a father. And every time he shows up with that deep voice and soft smirk, Amina hates how badly she wants to let him. Santiago isn't just showing up for Zuri-he's showing up for her. Fixing things she didn't ask him to fix. Dropping money in her hand like it's his right. Touching her like he already knows how she breaks. Amina's been holding everything together for so long, she doesn't know how to let go. Doesn't know how to want someone who actually stays. But Santiago stays. Through the attitude. The boundaries. The sparks that keep catching fire. And when he finally gets his hands on her? There's nothing soft about it. Now she's spiraling in his sheets, clashing with him in front of her family, and falling harder than she ever meant to. Because Santiago doesn't just want to play daddy. He wants the whole damn family. And this time, he's not leaving until he has them. Ink Don't Lie is a gritty, emotionally charged, standalone romance about second chances, found family, and the kind of love that refuses to walk away.Complete
Don't you dare - Yungblud Fanfic
She only wanted one night at the barricade. One night to scream the songs that saved her. One night to feel close to the rockstar she's always felt an unexplainable connection to. But when a car pulls up outside the venue after the show, blocking the fans, Maddox's stubborn mouth turns her into a target-and a single gunshot changes everything. Bleeding on the pavement, she wakes up to find the last person she expected waiting at her side: him. Dominic Harrison is supposed to be on tour, untouchable, larger than life. He has a career, managers, fans-an entire world depending on him. He isn't supposed to care about a stranger. Except Maddox isn't a stranger. She's familiar. Too familiar. The girl from the barrier. The girl in the comments. The one he could never stop noticing. As Dom's world collides with Maddox's, what starts with blood and chaos spirals into something neither of them can explain: a messy, obsessive, soul-tied love story filled with trauma, banter, stolen moments, and battles against demons both inside and out. And when the past refuses to stay buried, both will have to decide just how far they're willing to go to protect each other. * Triggers - SA, Shootings *Thanks to those of you taking time to read this ever evolving story.

I laid kisses on her ear and neck. "Mmm... But the movie," she moaned. "We can finish it later. Let me eat you out," I replied. βββββββββββββββββββββ Hazel lived right next to Xavier.
