Sarai Rivers doesn't do second chances.
Not with love. Not with friendship. Not with Micah Reid.
But when she lands a job at Vanta Communications, the last person she expects to see is him-older, sharper, and pretending not to know her.
Their history is carved into stairwells and silence, into rooftop nights and unsent letters.
Now, in a city that never sleeps, Sarai must navigate new beginnings, old wounds, and the quiet ache of what could've been.
And Micah?
He's still hers.
Still Yours is a slow-burn romance about missed chances, emotional restraint, and the kind of love that finds its way back-no matter how long it's been lost.

Kayla had it all mapped out-study hard, chase her dreams, and keep her heart out of the equation. Love wasn't part of the plan. It never was. But then she met him. A single glance. A shift in the air. And suddenly, the life she thought she wanted didn't feel complete anymore. She told herself to stay focused. That her goals came first. But he made her laugh when she wasn't supposed to. He saw through the walls she didn't know she'd built. And with every moment, every quiet exchange, something began to unfold between them-something deep, real... and terrifying. She didn't know if it was love. She just knew it felt like everything she never knew she needed. All I Want is a story of unexpected connection, quiet longing, and the kind of love that rewrites everything. ❀•*+❀•ᴀʟʟ ɪ ᴡᴀɴᴛ•❀+*•❀ 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 : 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 • 𝟏𝟎 • 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏 𝐄𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 : 𝐌𝐚𝐲 •𝟏𝟖 • 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐Complete

But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence.

In Between Us
We're not together. But we're not just friends either. Late-night messages. Almost-kisses. Unspoken feelings hidden behind casual conversations and coffee shop meetups. They never defined what they were-because definitions meant boundaries, and boundaries meant limitations. So they kept it simple. No labels. No promises. Just a connection that felt too real to be nothing... and too fragile to be something. But when emotions get too loud to ignore, and hearts begin to want more-what happens in between us can either bring them closer, or tear them apart. A modern love story about almost, uncertainties, and the kind of heartbreak you can't name.Complete

Jayden wasn't supposed to reply. Not again. Not after what happened. Told through texts, unsent messages, quiet scenes, and late-night reflections, in case you're still online follows Jayden, a creative and introspective teen, reeling from a fractured connection with Mara-the girl he never fully figured out, and maybe never truly let go of. When an unexpected message from Mara reappears like a glitch in the system, it reopens an emotional tab Jayden thought he closed for good. As they navigate awkward reunions, shared school projects, and the soft rules of trying again, the two are pulled back into a rhythm of late-night chats, half-finished sentences, and vulnerable pauses. Around them, their world grows-introducing new friends like Ezra and Iris, while pulling both Jayden and Mara into creative plans that just might heal old wounds. But love isn't as easy as restarting a conversation. Through heartbreak, humor, quiet flirtation, and moments that feel both ordinary and cinematic, in case you're still online captures the messy tenderness of young love-the kind that lingers like a draft you're not ready to delete.Complete
