Happily ever after. It's a common phrase. A line that's used in every Disney Princess movie, and what every girl hopes to find someday. But . . . it's easier said than done.
It's been four years since Olivia graduated from high school. It's also been four years since Olivia first sang on the stage in front of a big audience. Now she's getting ready to graduate from college and get her Associate's degree.
She has in her mind that her life will turn out like all the Disney Princesses. That her prince charming/boyfriend Aiden will ride her off into the sunset and live happy ever after. That may be. They may get married, start a life together, have kids, etc.
But, no ones life is perfect. No ones life is like a fairy tale. Olivia will learn that the hard way as she and Aiden go through challenge after challenge together.
Will they make it through okay? Or will it be too hard for them to handle?
**Warning: If you didn't catch it in the story description, this book is set four years after the first one.**

Back For You ✔︎
❝ Maybe I was meant to come back for you. ❞ We're all used to hearing the typical stories of two people falling in love - they get through life together and wind up with a happy ending. There are endless books, movies, and even real life stories about those love stories. But what about the ones that don't last? What about the stories about two people finding each other and falling head over heels, but they weren't meant to be? Because not everyone who falls in love end up together. Reality isn't always so good, and fair, to everyone. Not every ending is a clichè fairytale ending. Not everyone is that lucky. Ariel Winter and Aiden Maddon are one of the unlucky ones. • • • 「 A UNIVERSITY ROMANCE 」 「 COMPLETE 」 DISCLAIMER: This is the first book I wrote after five years of not writing, so it's not my best work. I've grown and learned since then so this story has lots of flaws. If you are looking for better writing, check out my newer books!Complete
Enemies to lovers
Olivia and Evan met on the first day of college-and hated each other instantly. She thought he was arrogant; he thought she was uptight. But fate had other plans. Through awkward encounters, accidental proximity, and undeniable tension, their animosity turned to something more complicated: attraction. Over time, Olivia found herself falling for Evan-just as he started flaunting a new relationship. Heartbroken, she pulled away. But Evan noticed. Curious, then concerned, he began digging beneath Olivia's carefully built walls. When the truth finally surfaced, they faced it head-on-sparking the start of something raw and real between them. What followed was a slow-burning love story: from a painful breakup with Evan's girlfriend to quiet, intimate moments that bonded them deeply. As they navigated their final year of college, insecurities crept in-but so did laughter, shared dreams, and growing love. Graduation pulled them apart, and long-distance tested everything they had built. But visits, job changes, and one grand decision brought them back into the same city-and back into each other's lives for good. From moving in together to starting careers, their love deepened in the rhythm of everyday life. But love wasn't always smooth. Career crossroads and personal challenges-including fertility struggles-shook their foundation. Still, they chose each other, over and over again. Through engagement, steamy nights, wedding vows, and a honeymoon in Italy, Olivia and Evan learned that love isn't about perfect timing-it's about presence. Their marriage blossomed through laughter, vulnerability, and quiet resilience. Even when the future brought uncertainty-like the possibility of not having children From enemies to soulmates, All the Ways We Stay is a deeply emotional, often tender story about two people who choose love-over heartbreak, over distance, over time. A story that proves forever doesn't arrive all at once. It's built, one ordinary moment at a time.Complete

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
