Lyra Delacroix thought she had left her past behind-her heartache tucked away in the pages of forgotten journals. Ethan Vaughn believed he had moved on, pouring his soul into songs that never quite filled the silence she left. But when their worlds collide after years apart, the emotions they buried resurface with an intensity neither can ignore.
Lyra, now a quiet but resilient bookstore owner, guards her heart fiercely, while Ethan, a musician seeking inspiration, finds himself drawn back to the woman who once defined his every lyric. As their paths intertwine, memories of a love that once burned bright are rekindled, forcing them to confront the choices that tore them apart.
Set against a backdrop of haunting melodies and the soft rustle of turning pages, The Pages We Left Behind is a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the fragile hope of second chances. Can two hearts, scarred but not broken, find their way back to the story they once dreamed of? Or will this be a chapter they are destined to leave unwritten?

Ashes Of Love
"What happens when the one you trusted the most becomes the reason you break?" 22-year-old Lyra Vance has spent her life tiptoeing through silence-raised by a single mother, abandoned by a father who left without a goodbye, and carrying wounds too quiet for the world to hear. Her sanctuary? A quiet café. A rooftop full of stars. And the belief that she doesn't need anyone to stay. Until Jiwoon Reyes Neverro walks into her life-charming, enigmatic, the kind of boy whose shadows are louder than his smile. They grow close. Too close. But Jiwoon has secrets stitched behind every gesture. What begins as warmth becomes a storm. Because Jiwoon never planned to stay. And Lyra... never learned how to fall without breaking. Set against rain-drenched Seattle skies, Ashes of Love is a hauntingly poetic tale of love, betrayal, trauma, healing, and the kind of forgiveness that doesn't come easy. If you've ever survived something you thought would destroy you-this story is for you.🕊️✨ "Sometimes love burns. And if you're brave enough... You build constellations from the ashes."~🖤🪐🎧

THE GREEN THREAD
Every soul bound by love must pay its price - some with memories, others with their lives. THE GREEN THREAD "We were never meant to last. We were meant to burn. And call it love." Between dream and reality lies a fragile thread - green, alive, and unbreakable - binding two souls fated to meet yet destined to fracture. Lyra Elor has always lived between worlds - too soft for reality, too real for her dreams. Every time she closes her eyes, she sees him: Aren Larsen, a man both impossibly near and heartbreakingly unreachable. In those dreams, their hands are tied by a thread that tightens with every stolen heartbeat, every whispered word, every touch that burns like fire. But love in this realm isn't gentle. It's costly. Every time Aren reaches for her, Lyra loses a piece of herself - a memory, a heartbeat, a fragment of life - yet neither of them can let go. As the green thread pulses through them, reality begins to blur. Dreams bleed into waking life, shadows twist into desire, and the line between obsession and salvation grows thinner. With Eira, her steadfast friend; Finn, the fool hiding dangerous wisdom; and Aren, the man who would tear worlds apart just to keep her near, Lyra must uncover the secret behind the thread - and the price of a love that defies time itself. Because some loves aren't meant to save you. They're meant to unmake you - softly, completely... and forever ♡ I wanted to write about the world we touch when we close our eyes - where love isn't real, but it still hurts like it is...

FIRECRACKER ʰʲᵖ
Elestara Lyra Black was everything a proper pureblood girl should be: elegant, cunning, coldly brilliant, and thoroughly unimpressed by fame or foolishness. She walked like a queen-in-waiting and proudly bore her mother's maiden name. On top of that, she was also Draco's twin sister. And Harry Potter? He was everything she was raised to despise: reckless and impulsive, too brave for his own good, and determined to get her to notice him. They were Lily and James in the next life, only Lily was a girl with hair the color of starlight and eyes the color of frost. She was a star, Harry's star, and most of all, a firecracker.
