WHEN PARALLEL LINES COLLIDE
They say parallel lines never meet. But what if they once did? What if, for a fleeting moment, two lives touched, only to be pulled apart by circumstance, stretched thin across years, running side by side. Close enough to remember. Too far to reach. What if the parallel lines of my life and yours crossed not by chance, but in the quiet, inevitable way hearts recognize each other. Across crowded rooms, shared dorms, awkward office meetings? Five years after their painful split, Leina Esquivel has carefully pieced herself back together. She smiles again, even as her heart carries a familiar ache. She's built a life that works: therapy that teaches her how to breathe through the panic, friends who know when to talk and when to sit in silence, routines that guard her from the unexpected. A life as far from Amara Wu as possible. But Amara isn't coming back to explain or apologize. She's returning with something far more dangerous: hope. Hope that what they had was strong enough to survive what most love stories don't. A belief that some bonds don't unravel, not with time, not with distance, not even with the hardest kind of goodbye. This is a story about two women who once fell in love... and now must decide if they're brave enough to try again. It unfolds in the quiet pauses between conversations, in the silences that say more than words ever could. It's about learning to trust after betrayal. About the soft, daily goodbyes we barely notice and the rare, deliberate hellos that might change everything. Because sometimes parallel lines don't meet by accident. Sometimes, they choose to intersect.

TAMED
St. Aurelius University - Series #1 Aria Quin Vale never expected college to begin with a collision-literally. One moment she was running late, the next she was face to face with a woman who seemed untouchable, her presence sharp enough to leave a mark. Aria thought that would be the last time she saw her. She was wrong. Selene Virelle Ashford isn't just any professor. Cold, composed, and untouchably elegant, she carries her past like armor, a woman who has long since learned to distrust the idea of love. In her classroom, discipline is law, and she makes no exceptions. But the longer Aria sits in that room, the more she feels the weight of Selene's gaze, the strange pull of someone she should not want to understand. Between family struggles, grief she still carries, and the reckless hope that life might give her something more, Aria finds herself standing on dangerous ground. This is not a love story meant to be easy. It's a story about walls and the people reckless enough to climb them. About fire meeting ice, and the spark that refuses to go out.
