At 17, Evenly Anya Payron loses her first love to cancer. Drowning in grief, she finds a box of letters from her future self - each one a quiet lifeline. As she reads, evenly begins to heal, torn between the pain of the past and the future she never imagined living without him. PS: She never actually uses his name, sort of like the idea of you speak it into reality, but I THINK I might reveal it at the end, but I'm not sure I might just keep it to myself.

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
