The Becoming Series Book One: First Year Blues
Ayanna Brooks been the responsible one her whole life. While her siblings chased the streets, she was clockin' double shifts, raisin' her little brother, and keepin' the lights on. When her mama's accident hit, Ayanna packed her dreams away-two years gone, survival on repeat. The "perfect daughter." The one who don't mess up. But now? It's finally her turn. First in her family to leave Atlanta, she steps onto Xavier University's campus with a scholarship, a suitcase, and a plan: law school dreams, no distractions, no slip-ups. Only thing is...the Big Easy don't play fair. Financial aid duckin' her calls. Her part-time job wreckin' her sleep. Her family back home still pullin' at her every move. And then there's him. Kahlil Carter. Frat boy. Legacy money. Smooth enough to make the Yard freeze mid-step. When his eyes find hers? Ayanna feels something she didn't even know she was missing-seen, wanted, alive. But his world-fast parties, secrets, that kind of dangerous pleasure-burns quick. One wrong step, and Ayanna could lose more than her focus. Still, Ayanna's not that girl. She's never been in love. Never let anybody touch her body like that. And she ain't about to hand herself over easy. But the pull between them? It's slow burn. Messy. The kind of heat that only gets louder the more she tries to ignore it. In the middle of all that chaos, there's one place that feels like hers: the art studio. That elective she thought was just a filler credit? It's the only space where her heart runs free. With a brush in her hand, Ayanna finds a voice she didn't know she had-one that might change everything she thought she wanted. Messy. Funny. Heart-heavy. First Year Blues kicks off The Becoming Series-a Southern college story about family, first love, temptation, and the courage it takes to choose yourself. Because in the N.O.? Everything hits different.
Albatross
⸻ 🌸 Author's Note When I first started writing The Jeweler's Daughter, I honestly just wanted to see what it would feel like to create my own little world - a story that could offer a bit of escape, a bit of joy, and maybe touch someone's heart along the way. I never imagined that so many of you would read it, or that I would receive such kind messages, support, and love from all of you. I'm truly grateful to everyone who's been with me on this journey. 💌 This new story marks a new chapter in my life - something fresh, mysterious, deeply emotional, and very close to my heart. I hope it will captivate you just as much as the previous one did... or perhaps even more. Thank you for being here. This is only the beginning. 💫 ⸻ Preview Becky has always wanted to walk her own path. Her dream - to become a writer and live peacefully among the Galápagos Islands - is far from what her family expects of her. But life takes an unexpected turn when fate brings her to one of Thailand's most influential advertising agencies - and to the mysterious woman who will change everything: Freen. Freen isn't the kind of person who sits still and waits. She's drawn to faraway places, to the thrill of cameras and discovery. Yet, one night on a dark balcony, everything changes - a misunderstood kiss, an encounter shrouded in mystery - and for Becky, Freen becomes the enigmatic "Albatross", someone she both longs for and fears to get close to. But behind their seemingly simple attraction lie deeper shadows: corporate intrigue, family pressure, and the ghosts of past misunderstandings will all test their hearts. While Becky remains tied to her fiancé, Freen must hide her feelings - and both women realize that love is never simple when trust and jealousy pull them in different directions. This story is filled with drama, humor, and unexpected turns - and one question that decides it all: Can two young women find their way back to each other amid the chaos of love and do

My Mistake
She thought he was perfect, but perfect doesn't exist. Alex had never been in love. Never been kissed. Never even held a boy's hand. So when Ben (the charming, confident, older man) swept into her life, it felt like fate. He said all the right things. Made her feel special. Claimed he was keeping her safe. At first, she believed him. When he checked her phone, it was because he cared. When he told her what to wear, it was because he loved her. When he got really angry, it was her fault, wasn't it? She should've known better. Shouldn't have talked to that guy. Should've texted back faster. Should've listened to him. Then the first slap came. Then the apologies, and promises it wouldn't happen again. But it did. It kept happening. Ben doesn't love Alex. He owns her. And she's learning, slowly and painfully, that love doesn't leave bruises. Love doesn't monitor your every move. Love doesn't isolate you from your friends and family, punish you for breathing the wrong way, or force you to beg for kindness that never lasts. But by the time she sees it for what it is, she's already trapped. And Ben doesn't plan to let her go. Not without a fight. ⚠️TW⚠️Domestic Violence ⚠️TW⚠️ Sexual Assault ⚠️TW⚠️ Emotional and Mental Abuse This is copyright so if you see anyone taking my book please help a girl out and let me know.

Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
