Joey's been living in the quiet aftermath of love lost-days bleeding into nights, ash into smoke, and music into memory. He tells himself he's fine, that solitude is safer than trying again. But then Alex walks into his orbit-unexpected, unassuming, with laughter that cuts through the haze and eyes that make the world look softer.
What begins as small talk and shared songs turns into something that hums beneath the skin.

A Little More than Gone
Faith lives in the quiet-silent when she's sober, reckless when she's not. She drowns her nights in alcohol and smoke, chasing a happiness that never lasts. It's easier to stay numb than to feel the weight pressing in from every side. Then there's Dominick. Light where she's dark, steady where she's chaos. He shouldn't see her, but he does. And no matter how hard she pushes him away, he keeps coming back. This is not a fairy tale. It's a love story tangled with ruin and survival, about two people colliding slowly, painfully, until the walls between them begin to crack. Dark, raw, and unflinching-this is a romance about what it means to fall in love when you don't believe you deserve it.
A Love That Waits
Two hearts, slow to heal, found each other in fragments of quiet moments. Coffee-scented weekends, rainy days, soft laughter, and shared silences. Hands brushing, glances lingering, unspoken words carrying weight. No rush, no labels - only presence, trust, and fragile warmth. Bangkok's streets, cafés, and quiet apartments held their slowburn love. It was theirs - tender, patient, real, and entirely enough.Complete

Leaving you to love you again
Jane thought walking away from Max was the only way to save herself. She signed the papers, left behind the home she once built with him, and vanished into a new city - determined never to look back. But life has a way of circling back. When Jane's twin niece and nephew run away just to see her, she's pulled back into the family she once loved. What she doesn't know is that Max has been quietly watching over her from a distance, protecting her even when she thought he didn't care.

But the past still hurts. And when a sudden accident leaves Jane with no memory of the pain that once drove her away, Max sees a second chance - not just to win her back, but to build the life they never got to finish. This is a story of heartbreak, healing, and finding your way home - a slow-burn second-chance romance where love grows again, stronger than before. "Sometimes, leaving is the only way home."Complete
The Silence Between Heartbeats
She never noticed the eyes that followed her through shadowed alleyways, across crowded streets, and even in the dim corners of her favorite café. To her, he was a stranger-silent, composed, yet always there. To him, she was oxygen, the only thing worth breathing for. His obsession was a slow-burning fire, consuming reason until love twisted into something far more dangerous. Every smile she gave someone else felt like a theft; every moment she spent away from him was an unbearable wound. He knew her habits, her fears, her dreams-details she never told a soul. But the more he watched, the more he wanted to own her completely. And when a man like him decides he can't live without you, escape isn't an option...it's only a matter of time before the hunter steps out of the shadows.Complete
