Leo Vance, a 29-year-old heir burdened by grief and the weight of his family's legacy, feels utterly disconnected from his life. Elara Thorne is a 19-year-old art student, mature beyond her years due to her own loss, yet vibrant and unapologetically authentic.
Their worlds collide when Elara receives a scholarship from Leo's foundation. A powerful, immediate connection forms, but it is swiftly complicated by a glaring age gap, a scandalous photo, and a conflict of interest that threatens her future. As they navigate judgment from family, colleagues, and the public, their relationship is tested by the immense pressure. Forced apart by a storm of misunderstanding and external forces, they must each confront their own demons-Leo his gilded cage of responsibility, and Elara her fear of being unseen.
"The Currents Between Us" is a story about whether two people from different worlds, weighed down by past grief and present scrutiny, can brave the turbulent waters of perception to build a new, authentic future together.

A Touch of Forever
Enemies, lovers, soulmates. This is not a fairy tale. This is a storm they chose to survive together. Elara never asked to fall for a prince - especially not that prince. Cold, calculating, and entirely too handsome for her peace of mind, Sebastian was everything Elara had trained herself to avoid. But fate, politics, and palace walls had other plans. What began as barbed words and stolen glances soon turned into secret texts, shared silences, and a kiss that rewrote everything. Through masquerade balls, media storms, and a jealous ex with a vengeance, Elara and Sebastian's love is tested at every turn - until one final act of violence threatens to shatter them forever. But some love survives the fire. Some hearts are stubborn enough to beat again. And for Elara and Sebastian, forever isn't a fairy tale. It's a choice - and they make it every single day. A Touch of Forever is a royal love story full of passion, betrayal, resilience, and the kind of devotion that refuses to let go.Complete

Beautiful Ruin
She ran from blood. He smelled it. Now he thinks fate gift-wrapped her just for him. Elara escaped a life built on violence. Running was her only choice, and freedom was her dream. Instead, she found a new kind of danger. Leo feels like salvation, the kind of man who would burn the world before letting it take her from him. There is something in his silence, in the way he looks at her, that feels both safe and terrifying. He does not want her fear. He wants the pieces of her she has kept buried, the ones that still remember what it means to be alive. But Leo is not the only one watching. Something moves in the dark around her, something that knows what she truly is. In this story, not all monsters want to hurt you. Some want to love you and never let you go.
