Nerissa Reyes has always done what was expected of her. Quiet. Obedient. Dutiful daughter of a powerful family. But when she learns her father is marrying her off to someone she's never met-for a business alliance she never agreed to-her world begins to crack. The life she imagined for herself is slipping away, and worse, no one seems to care. One reckless night, desperate to feel in control of something, Nerissa follows her cousin into New York City's underground street racing scene. Neon lights, roaring engines, the hum of danger in the air-it's a world she doesn't belong to, and yet... it pulls her in. That's where she meets him. Azai Serrano. The king of the streets. A racer with a name everyone knows and a gaze she can't seem to shake. He's arrogant, infuriatingly confident-and the most devastatingly attractive man she's ever met. But it's not just how he looks at her... it's how he talks to her. The things he doesn't say. The way he acts like he already knows her. Like he has some unspoken right to her. As one night turns into a chain of choices she never expected to make, Nerissa finds herself caught between duty and desire, family and freedom, a path she was forced onto... and one that might finally be hers. But in a world fueled by secrets, speed, and sacrifice, falling for the wrong person could change everything. And the closer she gets to Azai, the harder it becomes to tell whether he's her greatest risk-or the only one who could ever set her free. ----- Ongoing Started: 17.07.2025

Going Full Throttle

~ 2021 WATTY'S SHORTLIST ~ "I-well, I..." I hesitated with my response. I wanted to let go. To not worry about what would happen in the future. I'd always loved staring into fires. It hypnotized me with its beauty and danger. It was so tantalizing to look at, but one little touch could destroy. I knew the heat between Tyler and I was similar. It started off small but it had only grown in the weeks he'd been here. We'd fed it unintentionally, and it had gone from an ember to a crackling flame. Every nerve in my body wanted to reach out and touch it, even though I knew I'd get burned. *************************************************** Pia Callahan always lived a carefree life with no worries. Her only responsibilities were to attend her college classes (sometimes) and keep herself fed (on ramen). When tragedy strikes, Pia is all of the sudden thrown into a whirlwind of change. She has to grow up and take on more responsibility than she could ever imagine: the custody of her best friend's son. Pia may not believe she is the best person for the job, but she is determined to do it. She'll trade in frat parties for PTA meetings and beer-bongs for apple juice. But what happens when the ruggedly hot motocross athlete Tyler Westwood shows up in her small town? Tyler lives on the fast track, never caring too much about consequences. You can't when your job is to do backflips through the air. Sometimes, you just have to send it and hope for the best. From the second Tyler meets Pia, he knows he wants her. But she is determined to ignore their bubbling chemistry. She has priorities now and a summer fling isn't one of them. Will Pia be able to stay away from Tyler? Or will she decide to hit the throttle? ***************************************************
