She was invisible - until he saw her. And then broke her.
Ayra has always lived in the background. The quiet sister. The polite student. The girl no one truly noticed. She dreamed of being loved, of being chosen - not just for her grades, but for who she really was.
Then came him. Confident. Charming. Cruel. He made her believe she was special, only to tear her apart piece by piece.
Just when Ayra gives up on love, someone unexpected enters her life - someone who sees beauty in her silence, who shows her that love doesn't have to hurt.
But can she trust again? Or will her past always draw lines through her heart, like ink smudged on a sketchbook?
"Silent Sketches" is a raw, romantic journey of first heartbreaks, second chances, and discovering that the greatest love story begins within.

The Weight of Silence-- A spin-off of Keeping Promises(COMPLETED)
Some stories begin with fireworks. This one begins with silence. Not the kind that comforts. The kind that echoes through the spaces people leave behind- through empty hallways, unread messages, unanswered calls, and the quiet ache of things unsaid. Rohan Kapoor was a man shaped by that silence. A tenured Stanford professor of ethics and behavioral economics, he believed in rationality, discipline, precision. He lived behind walls built brick by brick from heartbreaks he never let the world see. Grief turned him clinical. Abandonment made him orderly. And love- he left that behind long ago. Lyra Wang never asked for softness. Raised in a small, chaotic immigrant household where love meant sacrifice and ambition meant survival, she learned early that emotion was a luxury. And vulnerability? A danger. A prodigy in statistical economics, Lyra believed in the logic of markets, not the mess of hearts. But life doesn't always follow theory. When Lyra arrives at Stanford for her postdoctoral fellowship, their worlds collide-fierce minds, opposing ideologies, guarded souls bound by buried wounds. What begins as friction shifts into tension-then something neither of them expected. In the hush between words, in late-night coffee and quiet glances, in anger and comfort, longing and restraint- they begin to unravel. The Weight of Silence is a story of two people who speak different languages of pain but somehow understand each other anyway. It's about loss. And healing. About holding on. And letting go. And how, sometimes, the most beautiful things bloom in the silence we've been running from all our lives.Concluida

Deeper
In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart. Our story hasn't even started. ***** THE SPENCERS SERIES BOOK #1 © 2020 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

"A Quiet Love" is a story built in silence - in the weight of things left unsaid, and the ache of what could be. It follows two souls whose lives intertwine in quiet moments rather than loud declarations, where every glance, every fleeting touch, and every shared pause carries more meaning than words ever could. Their love is not the kind that demands attention - it simmers beneath the surface, tender and restrained, burning softly even when buried under fear, pride, and circumstance. At its core, A Quiet Love is about yearning - the kind that twists in your chest and lingers long after the moment has passed. Both characters find comfort in one another, yet neither dares to cross the fragile line between friendship and something more. They orbit each other in an endless loop of almosts: almost reaching out, almost confessing, almost choosing love. It's a story about timing that never aligns and emotions that speak louder in silence than in speech. The angst runs deep here - not from betrayal or chaos, but from restraint. It's the heartbreak of wanting someone you can't have, or worse, someone you could have if only you were brave enough to try. Each chapter unravels their quiet devotion and the storm that brews beneath it - the jealousy, the fear of loss, the aching hope that maybe the other feels it too. The tension is constant, delicate, and suffocating in its beauty. As the story unfolds, A Quiet Love becomes a meditation on emotional vulnerability - the courage it takes to love softly in a world that glorifies the loud and the dramatic. It's a portrait of two people who find refuge in one another's presence, even when words fail them. And though their love is quiet, it is anything but small; it's consuming, raw, and real - the kind that leaves you haunted long after the final page.
The Shadow of Comparison

Slowly, the shadow of comparison began to follow her everywhere. Then college arrived-bigger, more dazzling, and full of surprises she never saw coming. Friendships that challenged her, choices that tested her, and moments that made her heart ache in ways she didn't expect. Could she navigate this new world without losing herself? From quiet school corridors to late-night reflections, from self-doubt to self-discovery, this story is about growing up, facing unexpected twists, and finding the courage to step out of the shadows. If you loved "The Goodbye We Never Said," you'll recognize the familiar struggles and heartfelt moments-and maybe even find yourself rooting for her as she learns to shine in her own light.Concluida

When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely.

A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction, inspired in part by real-life observations-moments, people, and dynamics that lingered in memory. While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing. If any part of the story seems to be similar to another it is unintentional. I also don't own any of the art that you might see all credits go to original owners but if you'd like to use any of the characters please ask first.Concluida
