Astrid Delacroix's entire life has always been arranged and dictated by her brothers. Whatever they say, she follows. She tries her best to be the good, sweet, and obedient sister they always expected her to be.
Why? Aside from the fact that they've raised and took care of Astrid since their parents' died, it's also out of guilt because of what she did four years ago that put their eldest brother in a comatose.
Now, Astrid is twenty-one and still lives her life the way her brothers expects her to, controlling every aspects of her life to the point she no longer knows who she really is and what she really wants. But as long as her brothers are pleased and happy with her, Astrid no longer cared.
That is until she meets a enigmatic man named Atreus Evans. Everything began to change for Astrid as she slowly gets to know Atreus. Sweet and gentle Astrid managed to charm the brooding man who hides secrets of his own.
And as Astrid and Atreus got even more closer, for the first time in her life, Astrid wanted to put herself and her happiness first, no longer caring about her strict, overprotective brothers.
What do you think will happen?

The Girl Who Made Life Worth Living
Finn has been the man of the house since he was a child. Simply surviving, he doesn't want any more responsibility than he's already burdened with at 18 - until he helps a mysterious abused girl he met near his new workplace. His caring and protective nature quickly brings her into his life but their budding relationship falls apart just as fast, until an incident and the subsequent events make them slowly come back together. Later, when Finn loses the only other thing he cares about in life he's faced with the choice of driving her away or being vulnerable enough to depend on her. Maybe she can finally make him feel taken care of back; the one thing that he's always truly needed. A more mature and healthy rewrite of a book I started writing when I was 14, inspired by the trashy, dramatic, emo love stories I was obsessed with on this platform a decade ago. I was dealing with a lot at the time so I came up with this book idea, where both main characters have dramatized aspects of myself in them, as a way to make myself feel lovable, so writing this now is a nostalgic and creative way of looking back, processing, and letting go of the emotions I was going through as an adolescent. I hope you enjoy! CONTENT WARNINGS include: regular profanity, descriptive sex scenes, minor sexual assault, minor gore, familial abuse, verbal and physical abuse, childhood trauma, tragically orphaned, absentee father, forced maturity, anxiety issues / panic attacks, neglect, starvation, descriptions of thin female body, legal trial of abuser. * Warnings may be edited as I write this. * Any new warnings will be put at the start of the new chapter including them, so don't worry.
