"When Love is War"
Vera Devereaux's world was shattered the moment Dante Mercier's family betrayed her father leaving her family's name in ruins and her every move laced with vengeance. She swore to make them pay, to burn the Mercier legacy to the ground.
But fate has a twisted sense of humor.
At a glittering gala where enemies wear smiles like weapons, Vera and Dante's paths cross-and the war between them begins anew. But this isn't just a battle for revenge. This is a battle of wills, of pride, of something deeper-something darker.
As Vera's hatred for Dante consumes her, a force she can't deny pulls her closer. The man she despises might be her greatest enemy-but also the most dangerously captivating thing she's ever known. And he's not backing down. With every sharp word, every cruel glance, Dante ignites a fire inside her that she can't extinguish, a fire that burns with equal parts fury and desire.
They are forced together in a deadly game of power and manipulation neither willing to give in, neither willing to lose. But what starts as a war of destruction turns into something far more perilous. In the fight to ruin him, Vera risks losing herself.
In a world of lies, betrayal, and shattered loyalties, Vera must decide: hold fast to her hate and finish what was started, or surrender to the chaos that Dante brings with every stolen glance, every broken rule.
When love is the battlefield, there are no victors-only those who survive the war.

Tomorrow's Blues
~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph.

Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all."

Vera's Crossroads
A Story Born from a Dream. Like litreally I'm not kidding. I once had a dream that felt so vivid, so real, that I couldn't stop thinking about it even after waking up. It was a story about love, heartbreak, and the difficult choices we face in life. So, I decided to turn it into a book. Vera Limanov, a girl caught between two worlds, Barcelona, where she grew up, and Italy, where she tries to start anew. Torn between two men: Diego, the boy she once loved but never confessed to, and Vova, the broken musician who stole her heart in a foreign city. But love is never easy. With complicated family dynamics, lingering past wounds, and a man battling his own darkness, Vera finds herself at a crossroads. And in the end, the choice is yours. This story has multiple endings, because love and life are never just black and white. Will Vera stay with the man she fought so hard to heal? Will she give her first love a second chance? Or will she walk away from both and choose herself? The decision is in your hands.Concluída
