Short Story :)
Sixteen-year-old Luca Vance has a system: keep your grades high, your sarcasm sharp, and your secrets close. It's not that he's ashamed of being gay-it's just that Ridgeway High isn't exactly bursting with rainbow flags. So Luca coasts through junior year with carefully managed charm and zero emotional attachments.
Enter Rhett Sanders: quiet, intimidating, and allergic to small talk. The two have nothing in common-until a twist of bad luck (and one particularly cruel seating chart) throws them together.
What starts as a string of awkward silences becomes casual conversations, becomes actual friendship, becomes... something Luca really didn't plan on. But between whispered rumors, cafeteria politics, and the minefield of being a teenager in a small-town high school, falling for someone might be the riskiest thing Luca's ever done.

Finding Life Again
Raised by cold parents who never offered him a glimpse of affection, Kai dedicated his life to earning the love he never received at home. Successful in his studies and devoted to his passions, he found a romance that ultimately shattered him, coupled with the harsh realization that he had failed and that his parents would never acknowledge him. A year after his graduation, Kai felt lost and unsure of how to chart his path forward. Clinging to the one person who had never left his side, he resolved to confront the traumas that haunted him. He never anticipated that the person who would help him the most would be someone he had met right at the beginning of his journey. SMALL EXCLAIMER/ The story doesn't visually describe sexual scenes. There are just a few makeout scenes. The first few chapters are describing a person who is slightly depressed and some light anxiety behaviour situations. It is not a heavy book. The characters are not abusive. The relationships are healthy, and I hope my book is as positive and easy to read as I wanted it to be. However, for some people can be triggering as there are mentions of anxiety and social awkwardness.Complete
