They weren't supposed to fall for each other... but some hearts are too toxic to resist.
Toxic Hearts & Tender Lies
Moving to Orlando was supposed to be Egypt Monroe's fresh start.
New school. New friends. No mistakes.
Then she met Nasir King-Lake Ridge High's golden boy, star of the football team, and every girl's fantasy. He wasn't supposed to notice her... but he did. And now he won't let her go.
He's temptation wrapped in a smile.
She's the one girl he shouldn't want.
But secrets, jealous exes, and whispered lies are waiting to tear them apart.
Because at Lake Ridge High, love is never simple-it's toxic, it's tender...
and it might just destroy them both.

The Perfect Chaos
**Perfect Chaos** Friendly Enemies-to-chaotic lovers. Found family. Buried trauma. A love that burns slow-and a shadow ready to break her. She's the wildfire everyone leans on-loud, loyal, unbreakable. She fights for her friends and pretends the nightmares don't still wake her screaming. She says she's fine. She's lying.

Forced smiles. Guilt she can't name. And someone is watching. Planting photos. Whispering doubts. Turning closeness into betrayal. Waiting to isolate her... and make her his. A festival of colors hiding fractures. Panic in the dark. Late-night confessions. They laugh. They fight. They fall apart together. But when the pictures arrive, will everyone survives what comes next? **Perfect Chaos** - where friendship keeps them breathing, love is the deadliest risk, and the shadow already knows how to break her. Step into the storm. You won't look away. 🌪️💜

Gabriel & Athena, Book One: Fate (A Wattpad Featured Story)
FORMERLY TITLED "FATUM" Chosen as a Wattpad Featured Story in May 2017 There's a reason high school senior Athena Thorpe spends every available moment reading books: fiction is always so much better than the real world. Even the unexpected scandal she suffered thanks to Jackson Montgomery was just a blip in her typically mundane existence in Sparrow, North Carolina. But no story could ever compare to the life-altering events that occur when Gabriel Valente moves into town. Being the son of a notorious crime lord and having grown up on the streets of Manhattan, Gabriel defies all the expectations the students of Sparrow High have for him, including Athena's. She never expected he would match her interest in the written word, or his unlikely grand gestures and definitely not the immediate but intense feelings which cause them to spiral into a secret relationship. A relationship that hinders on Gabriel's uncertain future, which could find him being the heir to the mob throne. Whether or not she wants to admit it, Athena knows the world Gabriel comes from is a dark and violent one. It's just really easy to pretend it doesn't exist within the bubble that is Sparrow. Yet, no matter how much we pretend, reality is never far away, with Gabriel and Athena learning a tragic lesson about choice and consequence a little too late. When you finally decide what you want most in life, the next question becomes: will fate agree?Complete
