Red Card Romance

When cold shoulders turn to stolen glances and late-night regrets turn into feelings they both swore they didn't want-everything starts to feel like a foul play. He's trying to stay away. She's trying not to care. But the heart? The heart breaks every rule. Enemies. Tension. A love that shouldn't happen. Welcome to the most dangerous game: falling for each other.Complete
Between Lost and Found
She woke up in a hospital bed with nothing but a name on a necklace. No memories. No past. No idea who she was. The world called it amnesia. But deep inside, she felt like a stranger in her own skin. With no clues to follow, she created a new life-a new identity. Fame became her only hope. If enough people saw her, maybe someone would recognize her. Maybe someone would know the truth. But with every step forward, the past remained just out of reach. Was she meant to remember... or was she supposed to forget? -- This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
Shy Eyes & Rose Skies
Rose has always believed in love-the kind that sweeps you off your feet, the kind worth waiting for. But after years of holding onto Ezra, the boy who gave her just enough attention to keep her hoping but never enough to take the next step, she's starting to wonder if maybe she's been chasing a dream that doesn't exist. Enter Mateo-the new guy in school from Oregon. Quiet, reserved, and with shy eyes that say more than his words ever could. He only has one friend, keeps to himself, and blends into the background... until Rose walks into his world. Mateo falls first, and he falls hard. Every smile she gives, every laugh he overhears, only pulls him deeper. But Rose is still tangled in the almost-love with Ezra, too blinded to see what's right in front of her. Slowly, though, she begins to notice-the way Mateo listens, the way he shows up without asking for anything in return, the way his silence feels steadier than Ezra's loudest promises. And when she finally lets go of the boy who never chose her, she realizes she's falling-this time into something real, something lasting. A hopeless romantic story about timing, letting go, and discovering that the quietest love can sometimes be the loudest.Complete

Until the Final Whistle
All Characters in these stories have names of people I know ( this does not mean any of the couples are true ) There were two things Emma Reyes never messed around with: her GPA and a good game of hockey. Or soccer. Or really, any sport. At sixteen, she was the kind of girl teachers trusted, coaches praised, and classmates quietly admired from a distance. Nerdy enough to win every science fair, athletic enough to lead every team to finals. But for someone who always knew what to do and how to do it, Emma didn't expect her toughest assignment yet to come from the principal himself. "Find student coaches for our new kids' athletic program," he had said. It sounded easy. Fun, even. Until she realized one of those coaches had to be AJ Moreau - the best soccer player in the province, with a glare sharp enough to cut ice and an ego to match. The boy who didn't like her. At all. But what started as an awkward partnership on the soccer field might just turn into something Emma never planned for - not in her spreadsheets, not in her perfectly color-coded life, and definitely not in her heart.Complete
