"You know that feeling of wanting to rip those thoughts out of your mind? Just shatter those memories into pieces?"
Shattered Memories follows the fragmented mind of a nameless boy trying to survive the aftermath of trauma, grief, and a fractured sense of self. Told through a nonlinear blend of past and present, the story explores the quiet horror of living with mental illness, the ache of abuse, and the long, messy road toward healing.
As voices whisper in his ears and memories claw their way to the surface, he grapples with self-harm, dissociation, and loss. Each chapter is a broken mirror reflecting the pieces of a life marred by silence and suffering. Amid the chaos, glimpses of warmth remain-a lost sister's song, a boy named Leo, and the stubborn, flickering hope that maybe survival is possible.
This book contains heavy and potentially triggering content, including: self-harm, sexual, physical and emotional abuse, suicide ideation, and depictions of mental illness.
Raw. Honest. Haunting.
Shattered Memories isn't about having all the answers.
It's about learning to live with the questions.

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.

Shattered echoes
When a love that once felt unbreakable fractures, the aftermath is nothing short of devastation. Shattered Echoes tells the story of a girl who thought she had it all-until the boy she loved pulled away, piece by piece, leaving her questioning everything she thought she knew about love, self-worth, and heartbreak. After a passionate and confusing reunion, Tanner's indifference shatters what little hope she had left. As their connection fades, she is left to pick up the broken pieces of her heart and soul. Through moments of confusion, regret, and the cruel cycle of longing, she tries to make sense of the boy who couldn't give her the love she thought she deserved. When a picture with another girl finally pushes her to the edge, the weight of his betrayal forces her to confront the truth-she can't change the past, and she can't change him. But she can choose to rebuild. Shattered Echoes is a raw, unflinching exploration of how love can break us, but also how it can teach us to heal, grow, and rediscover our strength. As the protagonist learns to let go, she comes to realize that sometimes the hardest part of healing isn't moving on from the past-it's learning to move forward with ourselves. Based on a true story between me and my ex which is still continuing to happen.Complete

Forbidden Desire
𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐭 𝐃𝐞 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚 25 years old, a billionaire and Mafia Don. Everyone fears, admires and respects him. 𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐬 20 years old and works in a bakery. Despite having a bad past, she is a really sweet and down-to-earth person. What happens when 𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐭 𝐃𝐞 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐚 wants to claim 𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐬 as his but she straight away rejects him? ▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ "Y-you..." The word died on my tongue. I froze, my muscles turning to absolute stone as my lungs struggled to draw air. This was a nightmare. The walls I had spent months building to hide our tracks collapsed in a heartbeat. How did he find us? My body violently flinched when Elliott laughed. It was a deep, low baritone that vibrated through the floorboards of the plane and struck a chord of primal terror in my chest. My back collided with Levi's chest behind me as I stumbled back. It was over. The realisation made my blood turn to ice. He had found me and I was entirely at his mercy now. "I am deeply wounded by your reaction, my love. Truly, why are you so afraid?" Elliott uncoiled from his seat with a slow, predatory grace. He stood at his full, imposing height, casually smoothing the lapels of his charcoal black suit. An amused half-smile played on his lips that didn't reach the absolute void of his emerald eyes. "I haven't even started with you yet." He murmured, his voice dropping into a dark warning as he stepped out from behind the seat, closing the distance between us. "Save those pretty tears for later, hm? You are going to need them." ▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎ #1 in Captive #2 in CEO #2 in Forcedlove #2 in Italian #2 in Mafiaboss #2 in Character development #3 in Darkromance #3 in Fear #3 in Panicattacks #4 in Manipulation #4 in Plottwist #7 in Billiona

That is when Leo, upon going to a new school to realize his father's dream of becoming the musical star his mother once was, meets a group of five boys. These boys appear to be almost shining beacons as they live their lives in friendship and delight in the path that their dreams have set before them. Will they light a fire of hope within the dark-eyed boy's despairing heart to love himself, or will the weight of his reality come crashing down upon him in the end?Complete
