The Memory Walker

Maya Chen's biggest worry was supposed to be college applications, not discovering she can rewrite her past.
It starts small - a forgotten phone that somehow appears in her pocket, a sandwich that changes right before her eyes. Soon Maya realizes she can go back and fix any awkward moment, failed test, or embarrassing interaction. Finally, she has the power to create the perfect senior year she's always wanted.
But perfection comes with a price.
Maya's changes are leaving dangerous traces in something called the memory plane, and someone is watching every move she makes. As her confidence grows and her life improves, Maya discovers that her memories have been subtly manipulated for months. Someone wants her to make one specific change, and they're willing to use her guilt, her relationships, and her deepest fears to get it.
With graduation approaching and the stakes getting higher, Maya must learn to control her abilities before they control her. Because in a world where the past is negotiable, the question isn't whether you can change what happened-it's whether you should.

The Slightest Touch
Olivia Scott, a New York girl who thought her life was edging perfection with a loving family, luxury, and friends. But little did she know it was far from fairytale, and let alone ordinary. Born with the powers far more dangerous than any, she was led to believe her life was anything but special. Living in a world of deceit, she was adamant on the danger she was marked since the day she was born. But no secrets can remain untold. And she was bound to know them. She was bound to change everything with the help of a mysterious man who suddenly barged into her life. With a touch of fate, a sprinkle of emotions, and bounties on their head, the two hearts found each other as they fought together on a life-altering adventure in their journey to save their people and their world. ~~ "Why are you telling us this anyway?" She asked the man from the future, as he leaned back to the shelf behind him after finishing his explanation. His emerald-colored eyes met her blue ones as he pierced through them seemingly searching far deeper than his eyes could offer. He had longed for her, every minute, every hour and day, though it was far more than he could ever comprehend. But just seeing her in front of him, alive and young, it was all payed for. "Because the last time, I couldn't save you as you died in my arms. And I'm not letting it happen again." ~~ A dark secret kept with a birth of murder, a life of façade, a leap from the future, and a love bound to break. The heaven and earth will meet and only she can hold them in between. Will it be enough?Complete

Ms. Calloway
teacher x student | wlw | age gap Jennifer Campbell has always done what's expected of her. She's the perfect daughter, the smiling friend, the bright, outgoing senior. But under the surface, she's barely holding it together. Between the pressure to be everything her parents want and the weight of expectations she can't live up to, she's starting to crack. Failing calculus is just the beginning. Catching feelings for her new calculus teacher--a woman--was never part of the plan. Leona Calloway is 45, quiet by nature, and more at home with numbers than with people. She spent years working as an architect, building other people's dreams, before deciding she needed something different--something slower, quieter, but still close to what she loves. When a teaching position opened up in Midtown, she took a chance. Now, she spends her days in the classroom, her evenings in her little cottage with her pets and true crime shows, and for the first time in years, she feels like she's exactly where she's meant to be. But when Jennifer walks into her life--bright, messy, and entirely off-limits--everything Leona thought she wanted begins to shift. What starts as tension grows into something neither of them expected. Jennifer is fighting to understand herself, and Leona is doing everything she can to hold the line. But the more they try to pull away, the closer they seem to get. Highest rankings #1 in femxfemComplete
The Bitter Dance of Hollow Hearts
One girl, haunted by demons she never asked for. One girl, holding onto a dream with bleeding hands. One girl, clinging to a life she never was supposed to survive. One girl-and one infuriating woman she was never meant to meet. Aurora Winters, 18, soft-spoken and sweet like spring rain, begins her second last first day of senior year. The wreckage of a car crash last Christmas stole what little safety she had left-leaving her in the bitter care of an aunt who never wanted her and a man who only knows cruelty. Bruised, quiet, alone and unraveling, Aurora is trying to survive the storm. But survival becomes complicated when a certain woman enters the picture. Valentina M. Harlow, 37, new to this part of town, new to the school, old to the weight of the world. Once a sweet girl who ached to be seen, now a woman shaped by silence and cold resolve. Sharp-tongued, guarded, emotionally untouchable, manipulative and entirely disinterested in attachments. She is the oldest daughter who walked away-from blood and businesses, from love, from everything that broke her. It's been seven years since she last let herself feel. And she likes it that way. Until Aurora. What begins as uneasy glances and sharp conversations becomes something far harder to ignore. Valentina sees the pain in the girl's eyes. The bruises beneath the surface. And suddenly, the woman who feels nothing is faced with a choice: walk away as she always has, or reach out-risking everything. This is a tale of longing and danger, where hearts shatter, wounds heal, and reopen. Again and again. A story of two women who were never meant to orbit, yet crash into each other anyway. A story of it all. Of longing that feels like ruin. Of aching that feels like home. Of broken things that refuse to stay broken. A slow unraveling, a dangerous pull. A love that could save-or destroy-them both. Maybe they'll piece themselves back together. And set the world on fire, together.
The spark and storm
They called her *witch* before they ever saw her power. On the night her village turned to flame, sixteen-year-old **Maya** watched her mother unleash a storm of crystal and fire to save them both. Now hunted and exiled, Maya flees into the forbidden **Blackwood Forest**-a place whispered to be alive, where spirits of light drift between the trees and ancient gods still dream beneath the soil. But something in the forest is watching her. Something old enough to remember her bloodline. And when it speaks her name, the world itself trembles. Bound by prophecy and shadow, Maya must uncover the truth of her family's power-the *Crystalborn*-a lineage once sworn to guard the earth's heart from the darkness below. Yet with every step deeper into the forest, that darkness awakens...and it knows her name. As the boundary between magic and madness thins, Maya will have to decide what she's willing to become to protect what remains of her world. Because some destinies are not chosen. They are awakened.
