He calls her Queen with a voice that touches places her boyfriend never could. 😩
Nixi knows she's crossing a line-but what do you call it when your best friend holds you like he's afraid to lose you? When his voice calms your storms and his hands linger just a second too long?...🥶😏
She's in a relationship that looks good on paper-but feels like prison.😖
He's everything her boyfriend isn't: grounded, spiritual, slow-burning with the kind of energy that tastes like temptation and sounds like safety.🥺
Their connection was always intense. But now, it's undeniable.
Their touches are "accidental." Their silences are full of things they'll never say.
Their friendship is about to become a fire they can't control.
Some lines aren't meant to be crossed. But what if crossing them sets you free?
A story about spiritual intimacy, forbidden feelings, and the kind of love that whispers before it screams.

Stung By You
I just close my eyes. Feeling him. Smelling him. Just existing close to him. My fingers clutch at his shirt, like it's the only thing keeping me from doing something reckless. Something completely, irrevocably stupid. Like kissing my son's best friend. And it feels so wrong. Oh God. So damn wrong. But then- His thumb shifts against my skin. A slow, lazy stroke. And suddenly, it feels so right. SO DAMN RIGHT. I breathe in too sharply. Mistake. He notices. Of course, he notices. His grip on my hips tightens. "You always this tense?" I force out a breath. "You always this annoying?" Leo laughs under his breath. "Only when I'm right." I tilt my head, and his eyes are already waiting for me-dark, unreadable, impossibly close. His fingers brush just above my waist. Barely there, but enough. Enough to make me hyper-aware of how easy it'd be to- "You wear this every night, don't you?" It takes me half a second to register what he means. The hoodie. His hoodie. *** 💔 She never expected to fall for him. 🔥 He never stopped waiting for her. 🏡 But some love stories don't follow the rules. Jenny Thompson moved to start fresh. A new neighborhood, a new home, a new beginning. What she didn't expect? Leo Mitchell. Her son's best friend. Fifteen years younger. And looking at her like she's something he's never stopped wanting. She tells herself it's nothing. She tells herself it can't happen. But then- 💬 "I don't know how to stop wanting this." 🔥 "Then don't." 📖 A slow-burn, emotional age-gap romance about love, healing, and the risk of wanting more. ** Taboo. Age gap. Off-limits tension. A love that shouldn't exist-but try stopping it.**Complete
Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.

I sit up in bed next to him and watch as he breathes, "You'll never know how much I love you." I whisper breathlessly. His back goes up and down as the blanket lays over his naked body. I stand up and pull out some clean clothes and slip them on. Wake up right now and I won't go. I repeat to myself in my head. I walk into the kitchen and begin to scribble down the words flooding my heart. ******* Rebecca has never lived on her own and she needs to learn how.

What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.

Always closer.Complete
