What happens when the heart wants what the mind can't explain?
Anastasia has her life planned out-major in biology, ace her classes, and maybe land a spot in a research lab. Music is her sanctuary, choir her escape. But when she hears him play-Chase, the brooding trumpet player with a crooked smile and eyes full of secrets-everything starts to unravel.
Drawn together by a shared love of music and something deeper she can't name, Anastasia falls hard and fast. Chase is brilliant, charming, and impossibly hard to read. And just when she starts to believe their connection might be something real, the walls he's built begin to close in.
Because Chase is running from something. And if Anastasia isn't careful, she might just lose herself in the echo of a love that was never meant to last.
Heartfelt, lyrical, and aching with emotion, The Resonance of Us is a story about love, loss, and the notes that linger long after the music fades.

Echoes of Us
Brandi always believed in following her heart, but her heart keeps leading her down uncertain paths. After years of struggling to define her relationship with Denver- a man as magnetic as he is unpredictable- Brandi is left at a crossroads when he walks out of her life yet again. She's spent years hoping he might be "the one," but his inability to commit has left her questioning her self-worth and her own desires. Just as she begins to rebuild her life, Shepard, her first love and a piece of her past she thought she'd buried, reappears. Where Denver is volatile and guarded, Shepard is open and dependable, offering her a stability she never thought possible. Yet, rekindling something with him could mean sacrificing her hope for a future with Denver- and reopening old wounds she's never fully healed from. When Denver returns with a changed perspective and regrets that weigh heavy on his heart, Brandi must make a choice that could define her future: embrace a second chance with the man who's always been a part of her or leave him behind for good in pursuit of the security Shepard promises. Caught between two powerful loves, Brandi realizes that choosing herself and trusting her heart may be the hardest decision of all. Echoes of Us explores the complexities of love, loyalty, and self-discovery as Brandi navigates a storm of emotions and learns that sometimes, heartbreak is a necessary step toward finding the love- and the life- she truly deserves. With rich emotional depth and relatable themes of personal growth, Echoes of Us will resonate with readers who appreciate romance that digs into the messy, vulnerable aspects of relationships.Complete

In the grip of the Alien
#1 in paranormal [20.11.2024] #2 in fiction [22.10.2024] #2 in paranormal-romance [2.1.2025] #4 in scifi-romance [14.11.2024] #5 in steamy [14.1.2025] ✅️Updating ❗️NOTE: The story takes its time to establish a rich, complex world before the main characters meet. It is a slow burn, but worth it. ~ After a devastating alien invasion leaves Earth in ruins, humanity struggles to survive in isolated zones, clinging to life behind barriers of failing technology. Lena, a skilled engineer with fierce determination, dedicates her life to maintaining what little remains of this protective technology-especially the light posts that keep the Xyvarians at bay. But when a search for medicine pulls her outside the safe zone, she encounters a certain alien. Towering, muscular, and adorned with sharp, curving horns, this alien is a calculated hunter, though his interest in Lena is anything but logical. Drawn to her, he pursues her in a dangerous game of cat and mouse, one that blurs the line between predator and prey. As Lena fights to evade capture, the tension between them ignites into a charged, forbidden attraction that neither can fully understand. He is unlike any alien she's ever faced-Machiavellian, dangerous, unyielding, yet inexplicably captivated by her. Lena, wary and unwilling to surrender, finds herself both repelled and fascinated by the Xyvarian who watches her with a gaze that burns with something far more primal. As she grapples with confusing desires and the disturbing revelation of a breeding program, Lena is forced to question everything-her survival, her humanity, and her heart. ~ (The artwork featured in my cover photo was sourced from Pinterest.
