Lachlan and Meadow were best friends...in elementary school. All communication stopped in middle school, and she never knew why. Meadow wasn't ignorant; Lachlan was good-looking, rich, and popular, everything she wasn't. It didn't take a genius to understand why he wanted to find new friends.
It was senior year, and Lachlan had something to say to Meadow. But Meadow wasn't sure if she could ever trust the boy who ghosted her all those years ago. Unfortunately, she was the yearbook photographer and was forced to photograph the football team. Specifically, the star quarterback. She couldn't avoid him forever.
Lachlan was the reason Meadow didn't trust anyone and had built her walls so high. Would he be the reason she tore those walls down?

Learning How to Bend
Liliana "Lily" Hamill is just your average working woman. 5'5" with wavy brown hair the color of milk chocolate and blue eyes, she's never been described by anyone as "a catch." She's pretty enough, what with her athletic frame and well-proportioned face. She rises every day, runs almost every morning, and gets ready for work just like many twenty-something-year-olds in the United States. She's been working mostly in the marketing department at Andino Incorporated since she graduated from a college in Texas at twenty-one, and she's lived in New York City for the past two. She doesn't think she's anyone special. But she is, because Lily has been blind since birth, although her disability has never held her back. That burden has fallen on her insecurities. Now, though, she's attempting to face her fears. Her closest childhood friend, Joseph Montran, has invited her to a company social event, and Lily grudgingly has agreed to go. All she knows is that it's informal, that she and her guide dog, Chelise, can mostly hang out with Joe and his wife, Katherine, if that's what Lily wants, and that she shouldn't be afraid to "act natural." What she doesn't know is that social event will change her life forever. //// I KEEP EDITING AS I'M WRITING.

Second Chances by the Sea
~ But as he stepped toward the stairs, another flash of lightning lit up the room, followed immediately by a crack of thunder so loud it seemed to shake the foundation. Jake stumbled in the dark, and his foot caught on the edge of the kitchen table. I heard him curse softly as he lost his balance, and before my right brain could stop me, I lunged forward to catch him. My hands found his shoulders just as he reached out to steady himself, and his palms found my waist. The motion sent us both off balance, and we tumbled backward together. Jake's chest rose and fell against mine, each breath sending heat spiraling through my body. One of his hands was still on my waist, his fingers digging into the fabric of my shirt while the other braced against the counter beside me. "...Claire." His breath fanned my lips, hot as iron. ~ Claire Whitmore fled her toxic marriage for a quiet cottage by the sea, vowing never to let anyone control her life again. She's content with her freelance work, her massive orange tabby, and a house completely devoid of any male influence. Until the day she rescues a toddler steps away from drowning in the ocean. Left completely alone and helpless. Upon confrontation, enraged Claire meets Jake Morrison, a sleep-deprived single dad doing his best... and failing. Instead of calling protective services, she ends up feeling sorry for the struggling father and accepts a job caring for little Emma as the next-door nanny. What begins as a reluctant favor turns into growing moments of joy. Jake's daughter loves coloring on the floor, park picnics, and sandcastles, moments that slowly chip away at Claire's walls. And Jake? He's nothing like her toxic ex-husband. But as feelings grow, so do the complications in Claire's life. A looming eviction, a manipulative ex who wants her back, threats to her beloved cottage... and the constant fear that opening her heart means losing herself once more.Complete

A BEAUTIFUL WAY TO DIE
What happens when the boy who chose you as his target ends up being the one you cannot unlove? Nelliel Watkins arrives at university with one simple wish: to exist quietly, to study, and to go unnoticed. But from the very first morning, Élian Blackwood makes that impossible. Charming, devastatingly handsome, and dangerously calculated, he sets his sights on her - not out of love, but out of a wound so old and so deep that he has confused revenge with survival. What follows is a story of manipulation and heartbreak, of a girl who learns to fall apart and then, slowly and painfully, learns to put herself back together. Of a boy who set out to destroy someone and ended up destroying his own carefully built walls instead. Of families long separated finally finding their way back to each other, and of two people who were never supposed to love each other - and did anyway. Dark, emotional, and deeply human, this is a story about what it means to be seen. About bodies we are taught to be ashamed of and hearts we are taught to protect. About forgiveness that is never easy and love that refuses to be reasonable. Because sometimes, the gaze that changes everything belongs to the very last person you expected.Complete
