After first learning of the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, research uncovered some shocking and sad details. In this novel, my fictional hero and heroine experience the real-life, heartbreaking circumstances that many Native Americans did. I hope you enjoy Black Bear and Quiet Thunder's journey.

Where the Cracks Let Love In
"Where the Cracks Let Love In" is not just a story-it's a heartbeat stretched across time, pain, and the fragile beauty of second chances. Aarav once believed love could fix everything. With a guitar in hand and music in his soul, he poured his heart into a girl who couldn't stay-not because she didn't love him, but because love alone wasn't enough. When expectations crumbled, so did he. What remains is a man haunted by what could've been... until a new presence enters like a quiet storm. Siya. Grounded. Real. Unafraid to meet his silence with sincerity. She doesn't live in dreams-she lives in truth. And somehow, in her calm, Aarav finds a reason to breathe again. But life never unfolds without a twist. A missed heartbeat. A hidden truth. A choice that could change everything. From heartbreak to healing, from broken strings to lullabies, this is a story of unexpected love, accidental beginnings, and the courage it takes to choose someone-not once, but over and over again. Because sometimes, love doesn't come the way we imagine. It arrives through the cracks-soft, steady, and meant to stay.Complete

THE REASONS // Bellamy Blake - The 100 [book 3; inproces]
Book III: The Reasons - when the world ends, what's left to live for Three months have passed since the tragedy at Mount Weather, but the scars it left behind are still raw, still bleeding beneath the surface. The cost of survival is no longer measured in lives lost - but in souls shattered. Peace was promised, yet all they've found is silence where laughter used to be, tension where unity once stood. And for Madison, the silence has become deafening. The abuse she thought she left behind has only grown darker, more consuming. Every bruise hidden beneath layers of clothing, every glance over her shoulder, is a reminder that her war never really ended. She's been forced to run. Alone in the wilderness, hunted by those who want to take her power, she must find a way to survive with nothing but her instincts, her pain, and the crushing weight of guilt. All around her, the world teeters on the edge of collapse. A.L.I.E has risen from the shadows of the old world, a digital ghost with a god complex, whispering promises of peace through control, order through annihilation. The lines between right and wrong blur as survival grows more brutal, and each of them must face their own demons while trying to hold onto the last pieces of their humanity. Loyalties will be tested. Friendships will fracture. And love, in the face of such relentless loss, will be both a refuge and a battlefield. For Madison, the journey ahead is not just a fight for survival - it's a reckoning. Her addiction claws at her like a second skin, her guilt threatens to consume her from within. She is broken. But the fate of the human race may rest in her hands. And in the end, she must answer the hardest question of all: Can someone so damaged be the one to save them all?

Senseless Reality
I wrote this in highschool because I was desperately not trying to hide the fact that living with my parents was emotionally and physically traumatizing. My english teacher didn't give af, but at least he said it was well written :) This story is written from two separate perspectives, that of a young teenager, and that of an adult, changes will be shown by a few dashes before a new paragraph is started. This story will be centering around the subject of child abuse. ***If any of you have or are currently experiencing child abuse, please talk to a trusted adult, don't go to your friends about these issues as they probably won't know how to handle this information. Child abuse is one of the most evil things a parent can do to their child, and I encourage you to seek advice and solace in a trusted adult.*** The themes in this novel include child abuse, betrayal, abuse of power, displacement, vulnerability of the weak, power of corruption, loss of hope, power of silence, desire to escape, coming of age, and facing reality. Your main characters are an adult female named Saden Monroe, and a young teenage boy named Archer Carlisle. I will be posting this story in multiple different languages.Complete
