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 Shadow of Comparison
"Growing up in someone else's shadow taught me one thing: finding myself was the hardest-and most beautiful-journey of all." School was supposed to be easy-a place to learn, laugh, and grow. But for her, it quickly became anything but simple. 🌿 Everyone around her seemed brighter, bolder, better. Every whispered compliment, every small success she didn't have, made her question herself. 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.Complete
Unwritten Pages
I was never meant to stand out. Just a quiet guy in a crowded world-walking hallways, reading books I never cared about, watching people laugh from a distance.

I don't know why I picked up her book, but I did. And that one, simple decision? It changed everything. This isn't some perfect love story. We didn't fall fast. We just... found each other-in the silence, in the grief, in the little moments most people overlook. This is about loneliness. About losing everything. About finding someone when you've stopped looking. And about learning to live, even when your days are numbered. This is our story. These are our... Unwritten Pages.Complete
