Everyone thinks Elara Quinn ran away. From the rumors. From the guilt. From the night her best friend vanished without a trace. But the truth? She was never running, she was hiding.
Now she's back at Rosewood Hollow academy, a place draped in secrets. And nothing is the same. Her old life is gone. Her name is whispered in the hallways like a curse. And the boy she swore she'd never fall for, Asher Hale, with his stormy eyes and reckless charm, seems to know more than he lets on.
when anonymous notes begin to show up in Elara's locker, with details only Maeve would know, Elara is is forced to face what really happened that night... and what she is still hiding.
But the deeper she falls into Ashers world, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because in a school built on lies, loving the wrong person could cost her everything, even the pieces of herself she's barely holding together.
She thought she could burry the past.
She thought the truth would stay hidden.
But someone knows what she did.
And they're not done with her yet.

Soul Searcher
The day Elara Vale almost lost her sister, the world shifted. Roots tore through the soil at her touch, shadows bent unnaturally, and in one heartbeat, everything she thought she knew cracked apart. Her mother's truth followed soon after: magic was real, it lived in her blood, and it was time she faced the Academy. Caelestis Academy is nothing like Elara imagined. Towers carved with runes rise over a mist-filled gorge, students are sorted into factions of Earth, Water, and Air-and everywhere she turns, the absence of a fourth lingers like a scar. Soul. Erased. Condemned. Forbidden. While others wear their trauma like a badge, Elara carries only questions-and a secret she can't afford to reveal. Because the fire burning inside her does not belong to the earth she's been claimed by. It belongs to the one element the world has sworn to fear. Haunted by whispers, tangled in rivalries, and pulled toward friendships she never expected, Elara must decide who she can trust before the shadows beneath the school rise again. Some truths are heavy enough to break you. Others can set the world on fire.
Love, Before Autumn Ends

He's used to attention, used to the easy rhythm of flirting and laughter, but Elara is different. She doesn't fall for his charm, doesn't care about his popularity - and that makes her impossible to ignore. Drawn to her mystery and warmth, William finds himself chasing something real for the first time in his life. But Elara isn't like anyone he's ever known. She guards her secrets tightly, smiles even when her eyes look far away, and carries a softness that feels fleeting - like the last light of autumn before winter comes. Over one unforgettable year - from the fiery colors of fall to the soft return of the next - their lives intertwine through stolen glances, late-night confessions, and a love that grows slowly, deeply, and beautifully fragile. Because sometimes, the people who change us the most are the ones we were never meant to keep.Complete
Shadows of Devotion
In a town where secrets linger longer than the whispers that carry them, Elara Voss returns-not for redemption, but for answers. Haunted by a betrayal she no longer fully remembers, Elara is forced to confront the fractured pieces of her past when the specter of a long-missing person resurfaces. The town watches, judges, speculates. Their accusations burn deeper than truth, forcing her to ask the one question she has spent years avoiding: Did she really destroy someone's life? Or was she just a pawn in a story far greater than her own ego allowed her to see? But memory is fickle. Fear distorts. And love-love is the most dangerous illusion of all. Him, the one who knows her best, the one who taught her desire and devotion, holds the very secret that will either unravel her or set her free. If she can bear to face it. As the mystery coils tighter, Elara must navigate the labyrinth of her own identity. Was she the villain? The victim? Or simply another soul lost to the weight of misplaced ambition and forgotten guilt? Truth is not kind. Neither is acceptance. But running is no longer an option.Complete
