Ivy never believed in love. Not the fairytales, not the promises, not the kind of heat that makes your heart race. She lived on the edge of things—watching, observing, never letting anyone close enough to hurt her.
Until Sienna walked in.
With eyes that burned when they looked at her. With a voice that wrapped around her spine and a touch that felt like fire.
One glance.
One stolen kiss.
One night that changed everything.
What started as a pull—physical, undeniable—turned into obsession. Into slow-burning glances in crowded rooms. Into nights spent tangled in sheets, whispering secrets in the dark, kissing like it was the only way to breathe.
"The Way Her Eyes Burned" is a story of longing, lust, and love that hits like lightning. It’s about two women who weren’t supposed to fall—but did. Hard, fast, and without mercy. And once the fire started, neither of them could put it out.

Love me, Then Leave me
Love Me, Then Leave Me is the story I've poured my heart into, and it's raw, messy, and real, the kind of story that doesn't shy away from the parts of love that hurt the most. It follows Ivy Monroe, a seventeen-year-old girl who's quiet, guarded, and trying to navigate a world that often feels bigger than her. She's careful with her heart, but when Jace Carter walks into her life, charming, irresistible, and seemingly untouchable, everything shifts. He's everything she didn't know she wanted, and nothing she can hold onto. Writing this book, I wanted to explore the intensity of first love, the confusion of emotions when someone makes you feel seen yet unreachable, and the heartbreak that comes from being left wondering what went wrong. Ivy isn't perfect, she makes mistakes, she overthinks, and she feels deeply, but that's exactly what makes her real. And Jace? He's complicated, infuriating, and unforgettable. The tension between them builds, the chemistry sparks, and every interaction is charged with vulnerability, desire, and fear. But this story isn't just about love, it's about identity, growth, and the messy process of learning to protect your heart without closing it completely. Through Ivy's perspective, I wanted to capture the exhilaration of falling for someone who seems out of reach, the sting of betrayal, and the bittersweet lessons that come with letting go. There's laughter, heartbreak, hope, and pain, all woven together to tell a story that stays with you long after the last page. When I wrote Love Me, Then Leave Me, I wanted readers to feel Ivy's highs and lows, to walk in her shoes, and to remember that love is never simple, but it's always worth the risk. This is a story for anyone who's ever loved too deeply, questioned too much, and dared to hope again, even when their heart is telling them to run.Complete

Their connection is instant, electric, and entirely forbidden. In secret gardens and candlelit rooms, they trade confessions meant to stay buried, and risk touches that could destroy them both. Because love this improper is never safe-and Ivy will have to decide if she's willing to pay the price for the one thing she's always wanted: a love that dares everything.Complete

She tries to make sense of the chaos, holding onto that small, fragile thread of belief that love is still out there.

But the pattern repeats. He leaves. And the pain hits harder, because this time she truly thought it would last. Now, with too much on her mind and a heart full of silent screams, she stands at the edge of hope and heartbreak, still wishing-against all odds-that real love will find her.

Worse for Love- Book #3 in the WF Series
Love. A word that never made sense to Ivy Blanchard. Yes, she helps all of her friends with every relationship because she wants to see them happy, but she never really believed in the exaggerated picture of what "love" is. Trusting someone completely by opening up to them has never really amused her, and maybe that's because of what she went through as a little girl. When one day, she gets drunk and calls Kai Hale; one of her cousin's friends, to come and get her, it escalates into a fake relationship that neither of them expected. To convince her friend that she doesn't need help finding love, she decides to create a fake relationship with Kai. Although, the lie only begins to lead into other things that neither one of them realized or were prepared for. Kai is the exact opposite of Ivy. Smiling is second nature to him, and love is definitely something he's always believed in, he just doesn't have enough time for it with his complicated schedule. When Ivy and him begin getting close though, he realizes there definitely is something happening, but convincing Ivy that it's okay to let someone in is harder than he thought it would be. Will he actually get over the wall she's built since she could remember?Complete
