In Silence, three damaged lives intersect on the fringes of a city that thrives on forgetting. A meth addict numbing her pain with drugs and transactional sex, a dealer detached from everything but control, and a dancer caught in the shadow of an abusive relationship all spiral through isolation, addiction, and inner chaos. Each of them is haunted - not just by trauma, but by the desperate need to be seen, understood, and maybe even saved.
Lilac works at a liquor store by day and trades her body for her next fix by night, chased by the psychotic voices in her head that never let her rest. Conrad deals drugs and trades empathy for detachment, until the static in his own mind starts bleeding through. Maria survives by dancing, clinging to the illusion of control while her past pushes closer to collapse.
Told in intimate, fractured perspectives, Silence is the first novel in the No One Listening trilogy - a raw exploration of survival, dissociation, and the cost of emotional silence.

Blessed Cursed
In a world of silences, two broken souls try to find a promise loud enough to live for. Will they dare to hear it? Love save them. Love destroys them. And still - will they hold on? Alex Díaz Percy has stopped feeling. He drifts through life like a ghost in a school uniform-numb, sarcastic, sketching unfinished drawings no one sees. Haunted by a past he refuses to confront, he's built his world around distance. Then Leo arrives. Leo Malik Brown shines too brightly for his own good. Sweet, impulsive, emotionally raw, and teetering on collapse, he hides behind music, laughter, and the hope that love-if real-can keep someone from falling apart. But with a crumbling family and unspoken grief, he's barely hanging on. Their quiet friendship deepens into something powerful-but also dangerous. One is terrified to feel, the other is already breaking. When Leo is forced to leave just as their bond solidifies, both must confront what they've been avoiding: for Leo, whether he deserves love; for Alex, whether he's willing to lose again. Told in lyrical, alternating POVs, Blessed Cursed is a raw exploration of queer identity, emotional repression, and the unbearable intimacy of being truly seen. It's about two fractured souls learning to stay-for each other, and for themselves. ... It's not a typical YA story-while it follows young characters, it explores complex emotions, inner struggles, and moral ambiguities in a raw, realistic way. The focus is on the characters' minds and feelings, their fears, desires, and the ways they navigate difficult, often dark situations. It's thoughtful, emotional, and serious-designed to make readers reflect and feel deeply. I hope you like it 🤧
The killer In Me
"While learning about you, Lilliana..." Malachi sits up straighter. "I considered the fact you come from a loving home, lots of money, no deaths of anyone you were close to. I came to the conclusion that you don't know why you're so depressed." "You don't think this is weird?" My index finger moves between the both of us. "You sneaking into my house just to tell me there isn't a reason for my depression?" My arm returns to its spot over my chest. "You're clearly a psycho. Is there a reason for that?" "It's a chemical imbalance." His arrogant smirk is handsome. "But that's not the reason I'm here either." -------------- This is a sad story about Lilliana. It's a story of depression, drug abuse, and true insanity. This story is about Lilliana's manipulators; her mentally ill best friend, Maverick...and her puppet master; Malachi. Despite the murder and deception...this is also a tale of love. A love that runs so deep...it could make Lilliana second guess fantasizing about pressing the knife against her wrist. --------------- You will be reading this book from all three points of view, learning the minds of all three characters. Keep in mind that not only is this a dark romance book, but there are graphic scenes of murder. If sensitive to manipulation, gaslighting, and suicide, do know that all of this is prominent in each and every chapter of this book. Enjoy.
The Man In The Woods (Virgin Killer #1)
**3RD PLACE WINNER OF THE 2017 CRAYON AWARDS** Third place winner of the 2017 Lilac Awards From the beginning, I knew what I was in for. I knew that this scenario would end one way or another. I wasn't stupid. Nobody put a gun to my head and forced me to play this game of cat-and-mouse. But I will say, I never pictured that this would occur. I stood there, my brother's silver Smith and Wesson in my hands, directing it at my deadly target. My eyes bore into his, his indicating no sign of emotion, while mine were filled with horror. "It's you," I said, my voice unsteady. He took another step closer to me, his hands in the pockets of his trench coat. A malicious grin formed upon his face. His signature expression. "Surprise," he replied before sauntering forward to finish what he started six months ago. ♠♠♠ Six months after Skyler Williamson is abducted and tortured in the woods by a serial killer, she deals with the repercussions of her unfortunate ordeal. Crippling anxiety, the results of unknown misfortunes, bubble up to the surface and rest in the foreground of her mind. And Skyler's prescribed medication can only help to a certain extent. Repressed memories of the past collide with the present, causing Skyler to be unable to distinguish what is real and what is not. When two teenage girls turn up dead, Skyler finds it is up to her to catch the man who's behind all of this... Even if this means trading her own life for the answers she so desperately needs. © The_RebelAngel 2016 STARTED: 01/01/2016 ENDED: 06/21/2017 Cover created by @The_RebelAngel on CanvaComplete
