CAMILLE had always dreamed of having an epic love, someone who would love her in the present and future and took care of her no matter what. She was always a hopeless romantic. She cried and awed over chick-flicks, I mean how can you not like The Notebook!? The all so well known love story cliche; The boy falls in love with the girl they share a laugh and memories only to soon fall in love. As Hollywood loves to say ..."and they lived happily ever after." Ever since Camille Strakson turned 17 anything remotely associated with love let alone a relationship has been the last thing on her mind. When her parents got divorced 3 years her mother has been drowning herself in alcohol and slowly becoming more and more abusive towards her and her sister, Abigail. Working part time as an assistant at an interior design agency and taking care of a 7 year old while taking care of her sick father. With all her troubles will she find happiness within herself or someone else. Even better...both?
HENDERSON lives a "perfect" life or should I say...lie? We're talking suburbs and SUV's. Church on Sunday mornings and football games in the afternoon. He's always been the golden boy in town. Good grades, on the football team, and his father is the mayor of the town. His mother own a small cosmetic boutique and his sister, Caydee is in her last year of college. Henderson Benley has never had to worry about anything in his life or thought about how hard life could be. Everything has always been handed to him on a silver platter. When Camille stumbles into his life (literally) and open his view on what was really in front of him. They become two whole new people, but somehow... the same. One has everything the other, nothing. A complete opposite. Which is perfect to them. The perfect opposites. :)

Tomorrow's Blues
~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan.

Winning Back Mr. Right
Life is too short to be anything but ordinary. That being said, I learned how to play the guitar one day and wrote songs about love. My guitar skills maybe limited but I had so much fond memories that the callous on my fingers made a good souvenir on that musical stage in my life. As the years passed, I began taking interest in art; painting in particular. So I collected all the coloring materials I can find and start sketching in this huge white pad I got from some local bookstore. My brothers can sketch and since we share the same DNA, it's probably one of the reasons why I do contain a pinch of that same talent. To this date, sketching and painting are the two hobbies I still find interesting especially on stressful days and lonely nights. Call me greedy. It didn't stop there. My reading habit became so much more persistent that I also took a liking on writing. Wattpad paved a way for me to express myself, to show the world that I can be whoever I want to be as long as I put my heart and mind (together with a lot of hard work) to it. Thus, Winning Back Mr. Right was born. Like all relationships, one has the discretion of fulfilling, disappointing, and enduring at the same time. And just like the other girls out there, we need to find inspiration or simply to get stoked. Winning Back Mr. Right is a story about a beautiful, young lady named Airie. Airie is loved and cherished by Nathaniel, who is every girl's Mr. McDreamy. The couple is what the millenials would term today as #relationshipgoals. One day, her world turned upside down upon meeting the not-so-stranger-after-all Kevin, who happens to be every girl's Mr. McSteamy. Airie makes a mistake and crosses the line. Is love really enough to make a relationship work? Does being with someone for a long time guarantee a lifetime together? How she picked up the pieces and redeemed her rebel heart will lead her to Mr. Right. The question is...who exactly is Mr. Right?Complete
My First Love
Meet Alizah, the ultimate parent-pleaser extraordinaire! She's like the CEO of "Operation Make-Parents-Happy," always two steps ahead of what her parents need. If love was measured in mango pickles, Alizah would have made enough to last the whole neighborhood for years-because nothing makes her happier than knowing her parents are proud (and well-fed). She's not just obedient; she's the gold-standard role model for "I'll do anything for my parents," with a side of humor and a smile that says,"Challenge accepted!" Life was all smooth until one day-BAM! Her parents dropped the biggest bombshell: "We found the perfect boy for you!" Before she could say, 'Not Ready' she was already knee-deep in wedding prep, forced into a marriage she never signed up for. The boy? A soft-spoken, polite guy named Vivaan, who looks like the human version of a greeting card-nice, but completely unnecessary (in her opinion). Now, Alizah isn't one to rebel; she's the kind of girl who'd say "thank you" after getting scolded. But being obedient has *limits*-and they were crossed somewhere between picking bridal lehengas and smiling for selfies at pre-wedding shoots. In her mind, she plotted "Mission Sabotage" Unfortunately, nothing worked, because Alizah parents could win *Gold* in emotional blackmail. "Beta, we just want to see you happy," they'd say with teary eyes, making her surrender faster than a cricketer caught in an LBW. And so, Alizah steps into her new life, half in disbelief, half in acceptance-like a girl boarding the wrong train but thinking, "Well, at least the view outside might be nice in this fake world" "Some journeys begin without a destination."Whether this one leads to chaos or contentment, only time will tell. Prepare for laugh-out-loud moments, heart-tugging twists, and the sweetest mess of feelings!Complete
