As Max embraces his future in the City of Angels, he finds himself captivated by Claire's effortless kindness and infectious spirit. Their romance unfolds in the quiet space between the tides-sharing secrets over broken cookie hearts and finding beauty in the simple California light.

Chasing Echoes
One demo. One voice. One life-altering decision. Beth Daniels never chased fame-it found her. Plucked from obscurity and dropped into the chaos of the American rock scene, she's the last thing Eternal Echoes expected: a quiet, bookish Brit with a voice that cuts straight to the soul. But music isn't the only thing that ignites between Beth and the band-especially the magnetic and guarded lead singer, Jordan Riley. The deeper she falls into their world-and into his arms-the more the lines between love, loyalty, and ambition begin to blur. When tragedy calls her home, Beth must make a devastating choice between the life she always knew and the one she never dared to dream. And walking away might mean breaking more than just hearts-it could silence her future forever. Chasing Echoes is a raw, emotional tale of fame, first love, and the echo that lingers long after the final note. Set in 2010, Chasing Echoes is the first book in the Echoes Trilogy.

Lucas ✔️
*Completed but unedited* Lilith is haunted by ghouls; they pull her hair, hang from her clothes, and try to hurt her as often as possible. Lucas is a dark, mysterious stranger she keeps seeing around town. The thing is, no one knows who he is - let alone where he's from. The more Lilith is drawn to Lucas the harder it is to track him down. He runs hot and cold, constantly turning up and disappearing again. The closer they become, the less Lilith understands and the more the darkness crawls upon them both. It's not until Lilith loses everything that they realise their fates are tightly bound, with no chance for escape. Their story is foretold in the stars, in the past, in the future; and there's not a goddamn thing they can do about it. ______________________________________________________________________ "Sleep tight, Lilith," He said, his voice a mere whisper as he stepped away. "Wait," I said, my voice a lot louder, cutting through the night. "What's your name?" He paused, turning his head back to look at me, his dark eyes holding mine hostage again. "Lucas," He replied, a small smirk playing on his lips as he turned his head and continued walking, disappearing into the darkness of the street.

That's not what I did. "It's okay to cry," he comforted. His eyes stared so hard into mine I felt like he was seeing into my soul.
