In a world full of temporary conversations and filtered faces, I met someone real.
We never met in person.
We didn't grow up together.
But when I was at my lowest - betrayed, broken, and searching for a reason to stay - she found me.
Her name is Pookie.
My sister, my friend, my light.
She Came Like Light is the true story of a bond built on messages, voice notes, and late-night honesty. It's a story of her quiet beauty, her unimaginable bravery, and the way she supported me through battles she herself was still fighting.
This book isn't just about her outer beauty - though she has that too - it's about the kind of beauty that holds you when you're falling apart.
Through ten chapters, I take you through her world: her strength, her survival, and the silent ways she changed mine.
She was never a stranger.
She was home.

Best Siblings Forever (I Love You to Paris & Back)
Some people may think my story is really boring. Some people may think it's unnecessary. Some people think it's too sad or too happy. But in the end, it's not really about what others think. It's about what happened to me and my little sister. It's about the life-changing experiences that make us who we are. Honestly, it all comes down to love. And I'm not talking about a book that's filled with kissing and all that gross stuff. (yuck.) I'm talking about the kind of love that exists between families and siblings. The kind of love that never goes away and is always there when you need it. Nothing can ever erase that inseparable bond between me and my sister and, well, maybe my half-brother, too. But he's a whole different story. And it's hard sometimes, to keep that bond, when circumstances are threatening to pull you apart. I will do anything to get her back.Concluida
The Shadow of Comparison
"Growing up in someone else's shadow taught me one thing: finding myself was the hardest-and most beautiful-journey of all." School was supposed to be easy-a place to learn, laugh, and grow. But for her, it quickly became anything but simple. 🌿 Everyone around her seemed brighter, bolder, better. Every whispered compliment, every small success she didn't have, made her question herself. Slowly, the shadow of comparison began to follow her everywhere. Then college arrived-bigger, more dazzling, and full of surprises she never saw coming. Friendships that challenged her, choices that tested her, and moments that made her heart ache in ways she didn't expect. Could she navigate this new world without losing herself? From quiet school corridors to late-night reflections, from self-doubt to self-discovery, this story is about growing up, facing unexpected twists, and finding the courage to step out of the shadows. If you loved "The Goodbye We Never Said," you'll recognize the familiar struggles and heartfelt moments-and maybe even find yourself rooting for her as she learns to shine in her own light.Concluida

Stepbrother Dearest
When my stepbrother, Elec, came to live with us my senior year, I wasn't prepared for how much of a jerk he'd be. I hated that he took it out on me because he didn't want to be here. I hated that he brought girls from our high school back to his room. But what I hated the most was the unwanted way my body reacted to him. At first, I thought all he had going for him were his rock-hard tattooed abs and chiseled face. Then, things started changing between us, and it all came to a head one night. Just as quickly as he'd come into my life, he was gone back to California. It had been years since I'd seen Elec. When tragedy struck our family, I'd have to face him again. And holy hell, the teenager who made me crazy was now a man that drove me insane. I had a feeling my heart was about to get broken again. **Contains graphic sexual content and harsh language.
