"You trust me?" I look up at him, staring into his light brown eyes that stared directly at me. It felt like he was staring into my soul trying to read me. I could barely answer his question because I was busy looking at him. Once I realized I was staring like crazy, I quickly look down. "I do." ----------------------------- She's the girl you never saw coming, the unexpected one who calms you, centers you, and still she turns out to be the surprise love of your love. She gets you, really gets you like no one ever has. She is your best friend, lover, and soulmate all wrapped in the prettiest package.

Voices Across The Stage I Kyle Alessandro
On the stage of Europe's biggest music competition, two souls as different as their songs cross paths under the spotlight. Kyle, 19, charismatic and determined, represents Norway with the explosive "Lighter", bringing to the stage an energy that burns barriers - even those of language. Although he is not yet fluent, Portuguese awakens a growing curiosity in him... especially after meeting Ashley. Ashley, 18, represents Portugal with the intense "Darkness En Mi", a song that echoes the pain, overcoming and trials she faced to conquer her place. Amidst criticism and obstacles, she was only certain of one thing: the unconditional support of her best friend Diana, who never let her give up. When rehearsals and backstage spaces become a stage for exchanged glances, insecurities, and conversations interrupted by language barriers and racing hearts, Ashley and Kyle discover that sometimes the deepest connections are born in silence-and shine brighter than any stage light. But between cultural differences, pressures of fame and unspoken truths, is one song enough to unite two worlds?Terminé
Chasing You
Some boys want an audience. The right one learns to listen. When Eliana Cassabria-Prescott moves to Seabright Cove, she plans to disappear-just a girl, a guitar, and a bench with a view. Then quarterback Kason Barnes smiles like a promise, and suddenly senior year tastes like kettle corn, bonfires, and firsts you don't admit out loud. College at Ravenwell University should make everything bigger and brighter. Instead it makes the gaps louder: fundraisers, fraternities, "optics," and a best-friend cheer captain (Savannah) who treats history like a claim. One broken promise becomes two, then ten, and Eliana does the unthinkable-she stops translating apologies into love. Enter Hendrix McBride: smoky-voiced composer, two years ahead, boots and bad habits, the kind of steady that makes a room go quiet. He offers time instead of a spotlight, truth instead of performance, and a simple rule for music and everything else-leave air; the right notes will hold. Now Kason is chasing Eliana. Savannah is chasing Kason. And Eliana is done running-for anyone. Between a stadium that wants her on his arm and a practice room that wants her whole, she'll choose the life that hears her.Terminé
The Nightingale's Corpse
In the sultry shadows of 1960s Louisiana , music is magic, power is poison, and love can be a deadly thing. Liliana "Lili" Azucar was once the darling of the Grey Bourbon nightclub-a Cuban songbird with a voice that could stop hearts. Now, she's the silenced wife of Herman Azucar, a sugar baron with political ambitions and a heart full of rot. Trapped in a gilded cage of luxury and lies, Lili's voice has been stolen-until a familiar face from her past returns. Luis Breaux hasn't forgotten the girl who sang with stardust in her throat. He's spent nineteen years plotting revenge for the mother Herman killed. But when fate places him inside Herman's empire-and back in Lili's orbit-his mission begins to unravel. As Lili plans her escape and Luis wrestles with love and loyalty, the city's underworld awakens. A storm brews beneath the glamour of the Hotel de La Cruz gala, where every secret, lie, and betrayal will come to light. Set against a backdrop of jazz, voodoo, and political deceit, Nightingale is a sweeping tale of survival, self-liberation, and the healing power of song. ⚠️ Content Warning: Domestic abuse, trauma recovery, mature themesTerminé
Julius
Julius Santo was a name that had every human's skin crawling. Most people know of him due to the lethal Mafia he leads, his silver eyes that have watched countless souls fade away, or the sinister scar that crosses his brow.

A hero who guarded, supported, and kept her safe. Hazel Alexis is an innocent, quite oblivious, nineteen-year-old woman. She works as a nurse in a small health clinic, aiming to earn enough money to leave her toxic household, and also spends her weekdays studying at her local college. As her new friendship with Julius evolves, she can't help but fight the overwhelming feelings that develop between them. Obtaining a crush on your best friend could never end well, could it? Every day, the simple things he does drive her deeper into the obsessional crush she has with him. But the hidden truth that remains between the two was the undeniable reality of how their end could possibly be. The mixture of his secret, her obliviousness, and the ultimate reality of it all was bound to cause chaos. What happens when Hazel discovers Julius Santo's true identity? ••• Best Ranks #4 Friendstolovers - March 2022 #1 GrumpyxSunshine - May 2022 #8 Chicklit - May 2022Terminé
