-READ SOUL SEARCHING (BOOK 1) FOR CONTEXT-
Iliana's life has always been a string of wrong turns. With nothing left for her in the small state of Georgia, she makes the boldest decision of her life: pack a single bag, leave behind her past, and board a plane to Australia. No plan. No funds. Just a fragile hope that starting over might mean something better than the nothing she left behind.
She finds herself in a run-down apartment complex, walls thinner than paper, nights lonelier than she imagined. And worse-her next-door neighbor seems determined to ruin what little peace she has. MK is loud, always on the phone at ungodly hours, chasing an acting career while nursing the ache of being half a world away from his friends back in the States. To Iliana, he's a walking headache. To MK, she's the grumpy girl who can't take a joke.
But proximity has a funny way of breaking down walls. Soon, late-night arguments turn into conversations, and conversations into something softer. MK sees through the armor Iliana carries, and she begins to realize that beneath MK's endless energy is someone just as lonely as she is.
As their worlds collide, Iliana must decide if she's brave enough to stop running from her past-and if MK is ready to let someone in who doesn't just laugh at his jokes, but listens to his heart.
In the city where neither of them quite belongs, two strangers might finally find home-next door to each other.

Bite Me ✔
《 Highest Ranking: #5 in Vampire 》 "Is that Marcus? Marcus as in, from our High School Marcus!" Casey squeaked. I spun around, not quite believing her, but there he was. He strode through the school like he owned it and my god, he could've. He'd changed over the four years he'd been gone. It was like god himself had carved him from a statue. His cheekbones could cut a finger and a jaw that could slice a hand. He was taller, more muscular. He looked nothing like the boy that went away. He wore a blacket jacket and ripped jeans, his grey eyes studied the school as every female studied him. Suddenly, they slipped past every other person's eyes and landed on mine. No surprise etched his face, it was like he didn't recognise me. Until I saw the corner of his mouth lift up. ~~ Best friends, Diana and Marcus planned to do everything together. They would go to college and live in the same dorm room, they would always be best friends. But, Marcus went away. Without expecting him to return, Diana uses her heartbreak to change her life. She becomes popular in college.. Then one day, he shows up. But he's changed, he's darker, more silent and definitely a lot more hotter. He'd grown taller, his face sharper and he drew eyes from every woman on campus, even the guys. He spoke to no one and didn't even acknowledge her until she spoke to him. But something was very off. Very off, indeed. Cover Design: @newsies- Copyright @tavanalee No Rights Reserved 2018Complete

Not The Last {Rough Draft}
~Thank you for the continued love for this series! I was 13 when I began this book, and am now taking the time to go back to completely rewrite it, and maybe just publish someday~ I'm 15 and my name is Astrix. Let's start with that. That seems like an easy thing to start with. Now, let me add in some other details. I live in a zombie apocalypse. Yeah, that's about as enjoyable as I can make it seem. Now let me add in something else. I'm wanted by the CIA for reasons that I don't even know, but I guess I will find out eventually. Maybe somewhere within my story I will figure it out. I'm well known as The Bad Ass for reasons that are kind of obvious once you meet me. Maybe that's why they're after me? Because I'm a Bad Ass? Nope, I doubt that. Well anyways, the answers are out there. Along with the answers to my past. The answer to life even. Maybe it really is 42 but I don't think it would hurt to start looking at one. So here we go. Chapter one. Book 1 *Being completely rewritten, final product will not be put on Wattpad, but hopefully go to print* **Highest Rating--#44 in Adventure**Complete
The Horde Just Behind
The Horde Just Behind Teaaser: The infection came quietly. No one knows what started it or what the infected want-only that they move with purpose and learn too quickly. When their school falls, Andrew, Maya, and a handful of classmates flee through a dying city toward the promise of safety. Their shelter-a tilted hotel clinging to the edge of a highway-feels impossible, as if someone built it overnight just to trap them there. Strangers whisper about a white tower called The End, a government refuge rising above the ruins. Inside the group, fear and tenderness tangle. Asha, gentle and strange, hungers for more than food. Daniel hides guilt that festers. Each act of mercy draws them closer to something watching from within. There are no monsters left outside-only what they've brought with them. Beginning from a draft I made at 14, now age 18. Lets read this together as I continue my project. Here's a link to the doc which has my preferred formatting. This is the intended experience: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vOo2pJt3kRtGa6YGSSwU_HA0jGkBI_CNPANkdZDcYZs/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.7ywhvehzkome Also try music, something like a No I'm Not A Human playlist : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0UtOH72T865Req5cpOywMp?si=0b62dba346534267
