Writing has always been in Eileen's life and now she's a published author with a big future ahead of her but it's not all a bed of roses: people depend on her writing and the constant pressure was flattening her like a falafel.
So, she decides to take the first ticket for Italy and try to find a new beginning in a small city in Lombardy. There, after a really inconvenient accident, she meets this guy who owns a bookstore. Him and his friends show Eileen there's life outside words on paper and she loves every second of it.

The Last Petal of Winter
"She lives quietly, hidden from the world, a timid soul who has only known fear and solitude. He stands before her as a wall of ice-cold words, hard eyes, a man feared by all. To her, he is cruel.

She is the last petal of warmth in his frozen world... but can a fragile bloom survive when spring is forbidden to come?"
Ticket to Verona
{MAFIA ROMANCE} "You, Aria, are like a piece of music that I could listen to, over and over again, and never get tired of hearing." Aria Remington was sitting alone in an empty airport gate waiting for her flight home when she first met Leonardo. Little did she know what she was getting herself into. Leonardo Romano is the Capo of the Italian mafia and never shows any emotion, weakness or care in anyone. Until he met her. But was he selfish enough to bring her into his world? ~~~ {excerpt} Aria. She was here. Right here. She didn't hear me come through the door, too engrossed in the book she was reading. I could hear her humming along to a song, similar to the way we first met. I walked right up to the desk, a gentle smile on my face. She still hadn't realised that I was there so I cleared my throat. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry, how can I help-" she looked up and she froze. Once it had sunk in, she smiled the biggest smile I have ever seen. "Leo!" She leaned over the desk and tried to give me a hug but because I was so tall, she only ended up hugging my torso.

BEYOND
He'd gone beyond his player ways for her. She'd grown beyond her traumatic past for him. Together, their love was beyond. Until one fatal accident. __________ When she loses the love of her life in a car crash, Althea has nothing left in California. So mourning and broken, she follows Asher's last wish: moving to New York and realizing her dream of becoming a fashion designer. But what happens when, three years later, she comes back home to get closure before getting promoted and married, and she finds her late boyfriend very much alive and paralyzed in a wheelchair? Asher would have never expected to see Althea again in his lifetime. He gave up on her, with his hope of walking again, long ago. And yet, here she is, the woman who's always had the power to shake his certainties, standing in front of him and bringing more than his heart out of numbness. With her, the half-man he's been for the past three years could be whole again and finally touch hope. If his pride doesn't stand in the way. If she lets her guard down again, because he isn't the only one who got wounded in this accident, and the ring on her finger isn't the only thing that has changed about the colorful girl he knew. Can their love go beyond lies, disability, ghosts of the past, new engagements, and all the opposite forces tearing them apart? __________ Featured in Wattpad Romance Head Over Heels' reading list in November 2023.Complete
