Liana Aya Santiago has always had a plan graduate in school, find a decent job, take care of her mother, and be the best friend anyone could ask for. Love? That's a distraction she doesn't have time for no matter how much her heart races when Julian Elias Villanueva is near.
Julian has been Liana's constant - the one who lifts her when she's at her lowest. Their bond is unbreakable, built on years of laughter and late-night talks. But behind every smile and every "we're just friends" lies a secret never dares to admit.
Because they drew lines. Lines that kept them safe. Lines that kept them apart. But what happens when the lines start to blur? When stolen glances last too long, and the weight of what could be becomes too heavy to ignore?
In a story of friendship, sacrifice, and the terrifying leap from almost to forever, Liana must decide, will she risk everything for the boy who's always been there, or will the walls they built keep them apart for good?

After one year at Bridewater College, Honoria Song likes to consider herself a veteran. She still has the same goals, but she's grown up a lot in the past year. Through thick and thin, though, she's made it, and this year was only going to be worse. The year for relaxation is over. In a matter of months she'd have her JCMs, and she'd be a liar if she said she wasn't terrified. But either way, she knew what she had to do. She couldn't stress herself out like she did last year. She couldn't fuck up again, or she'd be out of chances. Which is why she agreed to a tutoring deal with her (maybe) worst enemy Theodore Yu, despite his best friend Sebastian Hong still holding a grudge against her. But that's not the only thing going on. Between her best friend Yunji's attempts to raise her own confidence and move on from a longtime crush; Adelina, James and his new girlfriend's not-really-love-triangle love triangle; not to mention Nadia Sorren's sudden increasing friendliness despite all the hostility last year, it's a lot of things to deal with on the year one with the most important exams of your life. But it would all work out in the end. Honoria was sure of it. With exams, the Duelling Club, and friendship drama happening all at once, what wasn't to love at Bridewater College? completed. book 2 of the bridewater college duology [90,000 - 100,000 words]Complete

And when lines start to blur and feelings become impossible to ignore, Sofia and Matthew will have to decide-is love worth breaking all the rules?Complete

Echoes of Rejection: Learning to Love Again
Fifty-one rejections. Fifty-one times my heart was broken, including the girl I thought I'd never stop loving. After that, I swore I'd never fall for anyone again. Love became a game I refused to play - every smile, every kind gesture from a girl felt like a trap. Years passed. College came. I buried myself in studies, friends, and distractions, building walls so high no one could reach me. Until she appeared. Aya. Gentle, patient, and fearless in ways I hadn't known existed. She didn't chase me, didn't push. She simply stayed - quietly, persistently, until I realized the walls I'd built were trembling. But trust doesn't come easy. Fear lingers. Past heartbreaks echo. Can I let myself be vulnerable again? Or will my own walls keep me from the love I've always wanted? A slow-burn story of heartbreak, self-discovery, and the courage it takes to let someone in - even when you've sworn you never will.

Then there's Atien-charming, effortlessly sociable, and co-owner of the local gym. Their friendship grew without pressure, without pretense: just study dates, workouts, shared routines... until somewhere along the way, they fell-hard. Did they mean to fall in love? Not at all. But were they struck by an invisible arrow buried too deep to pull out? Absolutely.Complete
Secretly Falling (Interracial)
Ella built her life out of control and caution- every late night study session, every perfectly planned move was a brick in the wall protecting her heart. Love was never part of the equation. It was chaos, and chaos was the one thing she refused to let in. Then came Elias- quiet confidence, steady hands, and a gaze that saw straight through her defenses. He didn't just walk into her life; he unraveled it, one heartbeat at a time. Behind her ambition, Ella carried secrets- the kind that still haunted her when the world went silent. A broken home. A heart that learned to flinch before it ever learned to trust. Now Elias is offering her something terrifyingly beautiful- a chance at love that feels too real to be safe. But to take it, she'll have to do the one thing she hasn't done in a long time: let someone in. And that might be the bravest- or the most dangerous- decision of her life.
