<Things we lost in the fire by Bastille>
"She's gone."
Upon hearing the news of his wife Clare dead, Will lost himself entirely. He could only feel the pain and remorse seeping through his body, spreading throughout his veins as every second ticked by.
"It was all my fault." He thought.
In a moment of anger, he said things he shouldn't have and all he was left with was these feelings of pain and remorse. How he wished he could sleep for eternity with his wife, but he knew he couldn't. He had to stay strong for the sake of his three-year-old daughter, Fay.
But he couldn't make up his mind and was now stuck between two options: Live or Die.

My Past or Present!
A Past and Present definitely involve the people in it, but they both have more than that to offer. The situations, the choices made for you and the choices made by you in the past were and the choices would be made for you and by you in the present are as important as the people. Is it possible to fight everything in the past and engulf the present? Or will the external factors will delay the desired result of such fight even after going through the fight? The story of another confused person who is self misjudged and misjudged by others in a whole level or maybe only partly. Let us see whether the light can reach the person's heart while giving it to the other due to just a coincidence like the person thinks. --------------- note: need to read Past or Present to under stand this better...Complete
Forever Knight
This short story is the product of a lost bet. A friend challenged me to write it and we both enjoyed it enough that I wanted to share it with all of you on WattPad. It's fun and frivolous and my first attempt at writing futuristic dystopian. The United States and its Government have fallen apart and it's up to the country's citizens to find a way to carry on. In a small, central Pennyslvania, river town a group of people have carved out a stable existence under the leadership of their Governor and his volunteer militia - the Royal Order of Knights. The only problem? Governor Kramm's daughter. Charli grew up watching (and falling in love with) her best friend as he trained to become an honored Knight and her dream has always been to be one of them. However, her father's current laws won't allow women to serve. When their community falls under attack and she risks her own life to save her father's, will it be her final sacrifice or her proving grounds?Complete

The Angel He Saved
We all have that promise we made to ourselves that nothing or no one above or below can change that... Aidan Lance Walker has made that promise too after he caught his I'm-not-so-in-love-with-you fiancée in bed with one of his best friends seriously betraying him. He planned on getting in trouble with Officer Coldbone for over-speeding again but then something made him slow down, something he had no clue is going to mess up his plans and change his life forever... A young woman he saved from a burning crashed car. She's pregnant, lost her memory and she was told he is her husband. She remembers only her name, Faith and the words he said "Hold on bae, stay with me." PS: First book the Angel He Broke talks about Faith's past but you can read this as a single book.Complete
I'll Come Back for You
Book is completed! ✅ * January 2, 2020: placed third in romance category for the Duck Awards! The crash that broke through the last of her desperate hopelessness, was merciful, or so they said. Merciful, indeed. Merciful, for now she knew how cruel that promise had been. How had she managed to hold onto those words, as the world around her fell to ash? He hadn't remembered her at all, and she doubted he dwelled on the indefinite promise he'd made her. He hadn't remained the same, that she knew. He had risen to the top, left her to watch from far below as he became the star he had always dreamed of being. To believe he would return for her just because he had said so was ludicrous. Yet, if by some twist of fate, he did come back? "I'll come back for you," he'd said. Those vague words would be her undoing. **Inspired by Max Schneider's song "I'll Come Back for You" **Please do not steal my writing. This story took years to get down on paper and so much hard work!Complete

Lucky!
Quote Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect. Now where to begin? I'm Enid Lloyd. I have a sister and two loving parents, note my sarcasm. My parents never showed any care or love my way. They were always addicted to Esme, my older sister. As usual, we took a trip to our hometown, London for the winter. I didn't expect it to turn out like that. Really, I didn't expect it!

[New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: Most of the population is dead, some have turned into vicious, crazed creatures who want nothing more than to eat you, and a small percentage are left to try to survive. Nothing is the way it was. With not much more than a pistol and a vague idea of what she's doing, Claire Harrington ventures out into this new, unforgiving world with only one real goal: to keep her younger sister safe. The odds are against her, until she runs into Parker and finds herself reluctantly accepting his offer to help. Trust is a fragile thing. Humanity is a construct. Love is a weakness.

Yours, Forever
She was his motivation. Madison Connor, the only woman he had ever loved, the woman he had hurt, the woman he had left. Billionaire Damien Daniels had three things he needed to accomplish in his life. First, he was going to get to the root of his past. Second, he was going to make the Connors pay. Third, the last thing, he didn't even know. But he knew there was something remaining, a wrong he needed to right. And it was staring straight at him. A dark truth that risked breaking him apart, that could mar his existence. In all these though she was at the center of it all, Madison Connor. Lord help him. She was the one thing he could never have. His enemy's little sister. Eyes like the sea, strawberry blonde curls and those dotted freckles atop her nose; she was his obsession. She was the beginning of his downfall, his damnation and motivation. *** He was the one man she couldn't avoid back then, and the man she couldn't resist. Damien Daniel, her childhood crush who never looked her way even once. Her brother's enemy. She was too small for him, not sexy or beautiful enough for him, too shy to even talk to him. Their attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as she ached to be his, she feared the pressure of his demands. *** Submitting to each other meant they had to break so many rules. Could they? Would they? Their love was forbidden. Their intertwining past threatening to tear them apart. A bumpy ride. So many obstacles and trials. It took days, months and years, but what's meant to be will always be!
