Tender on Palpitations
A slow-burn medical romance that feels less like fiction, more like remembering something you never lived but somehow still miss.
It's not about grand gestures.
It's about the way your chest tightens when someone finally sees through you - and doesn't look away.
About growing up in a world that demands you to stay strong...
and what happens when softness starts to feel like rebellion.
This isn't just a love story.
It's for the ones who carry too much, who love too quietly,
who keep choosing hope even when it hurts.
If you've ever looked for pieces of yourself in someone else's silence - this story is yours.

THE EDGE OF NINETEEN(19)(EDITING)
"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived." Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival. Instead, it became the year everything unraveled-family, friendships, and the walls she built around her pain. Diagnosed with BPD, trapped between silence and screams, and carrying scars she thought no one could love, she was certain the world had forgotten her. Then came Chase-gentle, persistent, and painfully human. What began as an accidental connection in a library became the lifeline she never knew she needed. This is not a love story in the way you expect. It's about healing in slow, aching pieces. It's about therapy sessions, midnight breakdowns, found family, and daring to believe in something softer. It's about what happens when you stop surviving and start living. And maybe, just maybe-find someone worth fighting your way back for. Raw. Real. Relatable. If you've ever been on the edge of something-grief, love, adulthood, or your own mind-this book is for you. ---Complete
Yours in Silence
"It was never meant to be more than tea." A healer with too much heart. A prince with too much pride. They were friends first - a quiet bond built over shared cups of tea, soft laughter in an apothecary, and banter that lingered far too long beneath the surface. But some feelings refuse to stay buried. And when war calls them both away, the fragile thread between them begins to fray. Now, on battlefields and in borrowed hours, friendship becomes a shield they can no longer hold - and longing becomes the one thing neither dares to name. Friends to lovers. Slow burn. Banter sharp enough to bleed. Longing written in every silence. You didn't sign up for this much pain. Neither did they.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.

The Quiet Between Us
It's not a love story. It's the ache of wanting someone you were never meant to want. She didn't plan to feel anything. He wasn't even supposed to be the doctor. What was meant to be a routine appointment stirred something deeper-a quiet ache, a forbidden pull. In the space between silence and small talk, her world shifted. This is a true story of unexpected emotional connection, of chemistry that whispered instead of shouted, and of the blurred lines between care and curiosity. It's not a love story. It's a story of awareness. Of reflection. Of the quiet ache of wanting- someone you were never supposed to want anything from.
Until Our Bodies Remember
They thought they were done with each other. Years passed, lives changed-yet when they meet again, it feels like nothing ever did. The heart remembers. The glance betrays. The body refuses to forget. Now, face to face with the feelings they once ran from, they must ask: Was it ever truly love-or just a fleeting spark of youth? Memories can build a future... or tear them apart once more. A story of love's memory-and the spark that never dies.Complete
MINE
"A love that started with a name, but never ended with it." In a world where names are just words, there are some things that can't be captured by labels. This is the story of a boy from the second grade who couldn't forget the girl he had silently adored-you. Without knowing your name, he wove his heart around a memory, a fleeting glance, and a love so pure that it transcended time. MINE is a love story that exists between the lines of devotion and destiny. It's about the innocence of childhood crushes, the mystery of names never spoken, and the search for something deeper than just a face. It's the journey of one boy who spent years trying to uncover your name, believing that if he could find it, he would find you-and in doing so, he would find his own heart. In the echoes of school halls, in the silent whispers of memories, this is a story that will stay with you long after the final page, reminding you that some loves are written in eternity.

Love In The Shadow (18+ | Litmatch Lovestory)
Prologue - When Hearts Break Betrayal doesn't scream. It whispers. It seeps in like poison, invisible at first, until one day you wake up and realize you've been dying quietly inside. That was me. A wife. A mother. A woman discarded for someone else's smile on a glowing screen. He was supposed to be my forever. Instead, he became my wound. Eight months later, I'm still learning how to breathe without bleeding. Two children look at me with eyes too wise for their years. Han, seventeen, carrying silence like armor. Bella, six, asking me why Ami cries at night when the world is asleep. I tell her it's just allergies. She doesn't believe me. Some nights, I wonder if I still exist beyond the roles I'm forced to carry-mother, provider, survivor. Is there still a woman left inside me? Or did she die the night she saw the truth blinking on his phone? And then, in the middle of that loneliness, I met him. Not in the real world, but behind a username. Mr× A stranger with shadows darker than mine. A man broken by betrayal, scarred by addiction, living with an illness that became his shame. We should have never crossed paths. But broken souls recognize each other. And sometimes, even in the darkest places, love finds a way to whisper back. This isn't a fairy tale. This is a story of two wounded hearts, meeting in the rain of their ruins, daring to dream of sunlight again.
Almost Us
This is my first novel. A story born from countless imagined scenarios-those "what if" moments in the head that never happened but feel so real. It's about friendship, laughter, jealousy, and the feelings we keep hidden. It's about the times we're too quiet, the words left unsaid, and the moments that could have changed everything... if only. What if we were more than friends? What if I said what I felt? What if things turned out differently? This is not the story of "us." This is the story of what we almost were.
"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived." Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival.
