Lyra Dawson thought moving on was a straight line: heartbreak, healing, and happily-ever-after with someone new.
But what happens when pieces of the past still pull at the heart, even when you're in love with someone else?
With a boyfriend who loves her deeply, a best friend who sees right through her, and a past she can't quite shake, Lyra must decide-
Is it longing for an old love, or just the shadow of a memory?
In a world where not everyone speaks the same love language,
can two hearts still beat together even if they're nothing alike?
🍂 A story of late-night honesty, lingering feelings, and the beauty of choosing who stays.

The Gravity of You
He was the boy who left. She was the girl who couldn't forget. One year. 365 days of silence. That's what Aiden gave Emma when he walked out of her life without a trace. Now he's back, with a darkness in his eyes she doesn't recognize and a pull she doesn't remembers being this strong. What do you do when the boy who shattered your world walks back into it a year later, with the same crooked smile and a million secrets in his eyes? When the old, electric pull between them is stronger than ever. Between jealous friends, a toxic ex, and the suffocating weight of the secrets he's still keeping, Emma finds herself pulled towards him all over again. He's determined to win her back, one stolen moment, one possessive touch, and one heartbreaking confession at a time. But rebuilding a love on the ashes of the past is a dangerous game. And this time, the fire might just burn them both to the ground.Complete
Parallel Lines
Some people only cross your path once. Others keep showing up when it hurts the most. Martina had it all figured out-her work, her walls, her carefully controlled heart. Until Jo walked in: reckless, magnetic, and absolutely off-limits. Over the course of nine years, their lives intertwine in the most unexpected, inconvenient, and unforgettable ways. What started as a harmless dare spirals into late-night confessions, breathless moments, and a longing Martina swore she'd buried. But timing is cruel. So are the choices they make. As the years go by, their connection only grows stronger... and more impossible. What happens when desire isn't enough? When love comes too late-or maybe just in time? A slow-burn sapphic story of longing, misalignment, and the one person you never stop wanting. Will they ever get it right?Complete
Never His
She loved in silence, but silence was never enough...A Love That Was Never Meant to Be... Lyra Hart loved Damien Sinclair in a way the universe never allowed-with quiet glances, stolen moments, and a heart that beat only for him. But to Damien, she was just a familiar presence, she was just his sister's best friend-nothing more, nothing less, a shadow in the backdrop of his life. He belonged to another, and Lyra? She was never his to begin with. So, she smiled at his wedding, swallowed her unspoken love, and walked away. Years passed, and distance was supposed to heal what love had broken. But then came the call-the one that pulled her back to a place she swore she'd never return to. Damien's wife was dead. Murdered. And the man she once knew had vanished, leaving behind only grief, rage, and an obsession to unearth the truth. Now, as she stands beside him once more, bound by a past she never truly escaped, Lyra makes a choice-to help him chase the shadows of a mystery far darker than either of them imagined. Even if it means standing in the ruins of a love that was never hers. A slow-burn tale of longing and loss, love and betrayal-where the heart aches for what it was never meant to hold, and the truth waits in the silence, waiting to be found.

His mistress
Loving him was the cruelest kind of torment-a love that lived in the shadows, one that could never bask in the warmth of the sun. I was nothing more than a stolen moment, a whispered name in the dark, a secret he tucked away between the life he had built and the one he wished he could have. I knew, deep down, that I was a fracture in his story, a fleeting escape from the weight of his reality. And yet, I still clung to him, to the illusion that for a few precious hours, he was mine. But the truth was relentless-it came in the form of unanswered texts, in the way he dressed hurriedly after loving me, in the way he said her name with the same tenderness he once gave me. I had given him my heart, knowing he would never be able to keep it, and yet, I loved him still. Loved him as I watched him walk away, loved him as he returned to the arms of the woman he truly belonged to, loved him as I drowned in the loneliness he left behind. Because no matter how much I wished it to be different, I was not his home-I was just a place he visited before going back to where his heart truly lived.Complete

The Ones we Shouldn't Love: ACT I
It starts fast-like lightning striking dry earth. What begins as a spark becomes a fire neither of them can contain. It's the kind of love that keeps you up at night, wide-eyed and breathless, not out of fear, but because you can't bear to miss a single moment. It bruises the heart in places no one sees, but never breaks it-never harms it. Just leaves fingerprints, soft and lingering. Leaving would be easier if love ever truly left. But it doesn't. It lingers in the walls, in the sheets, in the silence between words. One heart clings to memory, loving what was. The other leans into the unknown, loving what might be. And somewhere in between, love becomes a duty-an unspoken promise, heavy and unshakable. All she wants is quiet now. Not the silence of loneliness, but the stillness of peace. A place where her heart doesn't have to choose between two kinds of love-only rest in the safety of her own.
