Coming Home To You
Shera Hayes has spent the last ten years nursing the bittersweet memory of Luke Connors -the boy she loved, the man who confessed his feelings just before vanishing without explanation. In their tight-knit small town, rumors have swirled, but no one knows why Luke left or where he went. All Shera knows is that her heart never moved on. Now, Luke is back, attending a mutual friend's wedding, and the air between them crackles with unresolved emotions. But Luke isn't the same man Shera remembers. His once carefree demeanor is shadowed by something deeper-something he refuses to talk about. What Shera doesn't know is that Luke spent the past decade as a Navy SEAL, carrying out dangerous missions that kept him far from the life-and the love-he left behind. As secrets unravel and old feelings reignite, Luke must decide: can he open up about his past and prove he's back for good? Or will his silence cost him the only woman he's ever truly loved? Sorry if the format is a little wonky, this was originally written on Google DocsComplete

Ultraviolence
Things just come and go. Things pass by so fast you don't stop to look at what's happening. That's until you start to realize what's happening isn't right. ········· My husband isn't the person you think he is. It's all an act. He plays it well too. People would never believe me if I told them who he really is, they'd laugh. How he treats me isn't right, but I can't tell. Nobody would believe me. Nobody would help me. I fear what will happen if I tell. ········· "Please Elena just listen to me. Or face my consequences." Reece yells. I jump like a child that was just caught having more candy than their allowed. "Get in. Now!" He's right in my face, but I don't blink. I don't dare make a move, frightened for what's about to happen. But that's just the beginning. Cover done by: @purplepenguinnComplete

The Secret (Watty Award Winner) | ✔️
THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft.
