Nova Park is two people.
By day, she's captain of the cheer squad-the perfect bow, the perfect smile, the girl everyone thinks they know.
By night, she's Siren-an underground street racer with a cracked visor and nothing to lose. Racing pays her brother's hospital bills. Racing keeps her sane. Racing is the only thing she can control.
Until Jaxon Cole crashes back into her life. The golden-boy quarterback. Her ex-best friend turned sworn enemy. The boy who shouldn't know her secrets-but does. When he discovers Siren's mask belongs to Nova, he doesn't turn her in. He challenges her to race. And suddenly, the game isn't just about winning-it's about surviving.
Because Rock, the ruthless king of the docks, doesn't like losing his crown. And he'll use blackmail, sabotage, and blood to make sure Nova bends to him-or burns.
Now Nova has one choice:
Keep racing and risk everything.
Or walk away, and lose the only life that's ever felt like hers.
✨ A high-octane, enemies-to-lovers romance filled with broken loyalties, underground racing, and one girl forced to choose between the mask that hides her-and the boy who sees right through it.

The Blood Credit [18+][complete]
❝ "Please... please, please," I whine into his mouth, broken and needy. He smirks against my lips, savouring my desperation. "Please what, pretty girl? Hm? Talk to me- I know you can." ❞ ⁺˚⋆｡°✩₊✩°｡⋆˚⁺ At Novae Vale, secrets aren't kept. They're traded. After a year lost to grief, Scarlett Cheslyn-Arden steps through the iron gates of the world's most elite academy and straight into the shadows of the Order, a society where favours have teeth and debts are written in blood. Win the Trials and you earn a single promise powerful enough to crown a king or ruin a family. She's ice-poised, untouchable, determined to survive on her own terms. He's heat-Xavier Caelum, her brother's best friend, her fiancé to be, a walking sin with lazy smiles and razor edges. They're paired for the Trials, bound by rules that make desire dangerous and silence compulsory. Underground fights thrum beneath the pool house. Poker nights hum with champagne and lies. There are masks, messages, and the kind of parties where music vibrates through your bones. In the dark between competitions, their banter turns sharp, their glances turn heavy, and touch becomes a promise neither of them should make. To win the Blood Credit, Scarlett must play the Order's game-clever, ruthless, unafraid. To keep her heart, she should stay away from Xavier. But when power tastes like his mouth and safety looks a lot like his hands on her waist, restraint starts to feel like a losing strategy. A sensual, slow-burn elite dark romance about found family, forbidden desire, and the cost of choosing your own fate-where every secret has a price, and every kiss is a risk.Complete
chaos & choreography
"You really want that?" he asks. "You want the part of me that doesn't know how to be gentle?" "Maybe I don't need gentle," she fires back, voice barely a breath. Something in him breaks. Rowan's hand grabs her jaw-not hard, but firm enough that she can't look away. His thumb rests under her lip, lifting her chin higher. Her pulse is everywhere. Too loud. Too fast. "Say it again," he murmurs. Too close. Too soft. Too dangerous. She swallows, but her voice doesn't shake. "I. Don't. Need. Gentle." For a moment, the world holds its breath. Rowan's eyes drop to her mouth-slowly-like he's memorizing the shape of it. She doesn't move. Doesn't speak. Doesn't dare. Their breaths mingle. Electric. Violent. Magnetic. Then he leans in-barely. Their noses almost touch. "So you want rough?" he whispers, lips brushing hers without landing. "Yes." ---------------------- He was the school's ghost. A rumor with a pulse. A bruise wearing a hoodie. Rowan Blackwood learned early that softness gets you killed. With a drunk for a father and a little sister who counts on him to stay alive, he traded childhood for survival before he ever hit high school. Street races at midnight. Fights in flickering alleyway light. Drugs passed, blood spilled, ribs cracked-but food on the table. To everyone else, he's the freak who doesn't speak, the boy with haunted eyes, the one you do not mess with. She was the school's shining star. Perfect smile, perfect grades, perfect life-at least, that's the mask. Seraphina Everhart is the golden girl with the world at her feet. Cheer captain. Rich. Worshipped. Untouchable. But no one knows about the brother she protects with her entire heart. No one knows about the ferret hidden in her room or the flour-smudged baking marathons at 2 AM. At school, she is seraphic. At home, she is invisible. Only in the dark does she get to be real.
The Devil is Marvelous
"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past.
