Emilia Addison was to put it simply, a misfit. She didn't have too many friends, wasn't considered 'clever', wasn't seen as 'cool', labelled and misjudged, she was cast aside. After the death of her father, she moved to Brighton with her mother and their dog. Emilia was still the 'freak', even at secondary school. But with it being her last year, she'd decided to accept her fate and that things would get better once she'd left. Finding her comfort in photography, one day she takes a trip down to the beach to take photos. A trip that altered her life forever. Because staring back at her down the camera lens was a young man, who was to make a mark upon her soul so great, that she would remember it for all the years to come. And it is often said that every great relationship blossoms from a great friendship. But fame threatens to get in the way, to cause intense anguish and fragmentation between the two. And Emilia realises it's up to her to save herself. But a relationship so beautiful and unique, so strong and potent is too remarkable a thing to destroy.

A Summer Like No Other

Sixteen-year-old Emilia Moretti's goal for the summer is simple: forget her brother's best friend-Nick Grawsky-ever existed. It should be easy: He's spending his summer in the Hamptons, adding girls in tiny bikinis to his list of broken hearts. Guarantee he won't be telling them they're like his little sisters. This summer, Emilia won't stay awake at night thinking about him. She'll need flawless ballet movements to have a shot at next year's showcase, and she's finally ready to search for her birth parents. But when Nick decides to stay in the city, Emilia's resolve disappears in a pirouette. Maybe it's the spin they needed to be together. As long as she doesn't get stuck believing in happily ever after... Nick is tired of pretending to be the happy, let's-have-fun guy. His father wants him to change his career from professional dancer to...lawyer. He needs to put all of his focus on dancing to prove to Daddy Dearest he's good enough to make it big. And he may have a case of the bluest balls in history courtesy of Emilia. She's off-limits: The bro code with Roberto even forbids the dirty thoughts he has about her. Besides, he's not boyfriend material. He only has time for flings, for girls who don't expect much, for girls he doesn't want to kiss goodnight. He knows he should resist her, but he's not sure he wants to... At least for this summer. It's going to be a summer like no other.Completa

Starving for love
Zoe Adam was a master at pretending. At eighteen, she'd perfected the art of silence, smiling when expected, nodding at the right moments, keeping her secrets tucked away in her heart. It was safer that way. With three siblings, a chaotic dysfunctional Latin household, and parents who wore kindness like a mask, Zoe learned early that love could sting just as easily as it could soothe. Her mother could call her mi vida in one breath, then leave bruises seen and unseen in the next. Her father? He floated in and out, too wrapped in his own storms to notice the ones he left behind. None knew anything. her sisters who witnessed everything but didn't say anything, had their own shields. Not her brother, who tried to be the hero but never saw what needed saving. Zoe kept everything locked inside her feelings, her loneliness, her hunger, her ache, her need until even she forgot what it felt like to be full. Then came Hayden Reid. Nineteen, half-Italian and Puerto Rican, . He moved to London that summer, taking the flat right next door. To most, he was just the new guy with the sharp jaw, quiet hazel eyes, and that permanent don't-get-too-close look. But to Zoe, he was more than that. He was her brother's best friend. The boy who used to tease her when they were kids visiting Italy. The one who disappeared after his parents split and reappeared years later with more muscle, and a haunted look she couldn't stop staring at. Hayden had his own shadows. His past was littered with broken things promises, people, places he no longer called home. Coming back to London was supposed to be a reset, not a reunion. But fate had other plans for him. Now, he lives just a few steps from Zoe's window. Too close to ignore, too far to touch. And despite the years, the distance, and the damage they see each other in a way no one else does. Two hearts with locked doors. Two people who never meant to collide again.Completa

A city love like no other. Enter the world of Alecx and Tristan, brought together by fate, only to be separated by unexpected circumstances. Will there be a second chance for them when they meet again 9 years later? A story about chasing dreams, friendship and love.... "A love story that will make you swoon. Definitely a fun, entertaining and feel-good read. " - A Reader's Comment Excerpts: 1) I saw her hug one of the guys in that department and kissed him on the cheek. I don't really deal a lot with our employees. I am mostly either inside my office or in the boardroom conducting meetings, so I do not even know who this guy she is smitten with. Just seeing her do that caused a twinge of jealousy inside me. I barely know this girl and yet, she is making me feel something I have not felt before. 2) I gave him a dagger look and tried to get away from his hold, but he did not let me. Instead, he put both his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. Our faces are just inches away from each other. He was looking at me intently. My heart is beating so fast. I feel like I am going to melt from his gaze. "I am just messing with you. I am sorry. Forget about what I said. Just dance with me. For old time's sake." He smiled at me. I continued to look him straight in the eyes. "Why did I ever leave this amazing man in front of me?" I asked myself regretfully. I set aside all my inhibitions and placed both my arms around his neck. Even just for tonight, I will enjoy this moment. I rested my head on his shoulder and nuzzled my face on his neck. I hope we can stay like this forever.Completa

"It's too much to remember everything and everyone, all pain and hurt is killing me day by day little by little. I wish I could remove all the pain and move on in my life. I wish I could find an eraser or Better a delete button, so that I could start from beginning, without any misery or pain." ......................................................................................... "Hey Eva, you know you can trust me, right? " He asked me again cupping my cheeks, I can't let him continue this. It had to stop now or it would be too late. I can't risk everyone's life specially his. If hurting him means, him being alive then I would do it without thinking. Again and again. "Eva are you even listening to me?" Noah asked moving his face closer. From this close I can even see the scar which he told me about, its just below the border line of his hair, it can be easily conceal but from this close its more real. His eyes, they are magical. I would love to look at them all the time and never get tired of looking at in them. No, I cannot do this to him, I can't be selfish, I have to do something this time. "No" I answer and walked away from him. .............................................................Completa
