A songbird trapped in a cage. That's what Crystal felt like. Although only half of that metaphor is true. She is trapped but not in a cage and not as a bird. Crystal is half siren and when she sings, people become hypnotized. But Crystal doesn't want anything to do with it.
Then she meets Dylan. A guy who just so happens to not be able to be controlled by her powers.
Will Crystal use him to her advantage? Or will she remained as a caged bird for all eternity?

Fallen
I knew there was always something special about me. I knew I was different from all the other girls. I could feel things before they actually happened, hear things nobody else could.

A fallen angel, damned, yet given a second chance to make things right, to be rescued before taking the wrong turn in my life that shamed me from my existence in heaven. Only problem, someone wants me to stay damned, to never become the angel I was meant to be.

Behind the Screen
The book follows a protagonist whose mind begins to unravel as they are plagued by eerie occurrences that blur the line between reality and delusion. It begins with subtle shifts-a feeling of being watched, strange reflections, whispers at the edges of perception-but as the story unfolds, these sensations grow more intense and impossible to ignore. The protagonist starts questioning their own sanity, struggling to differentiate between what's real and what's in their head. Is someone-or something-watching them, or are they simply losing their grip on reality? As they spiral deeper into paranoia, the boundaries of their own identity begin to fracture, and they realize they may not be the only one in control of their mind. With each passing day, the tension grows, and the truth becomes harder to discern. The story keeps readers on edge, with unreliable narration and distorted imagery that makes them question everything. As the protagonist's mental state deteriorates, the lines between the observer and the observed blur, and the final revelation leaves the reader wondering if they're trapped in this madness alongside the character. A chilling psychological thriller, this book explores the nature of reality, self-awareness, and the terrifying idea that what you think you know may be nothing more than a reflection of something far darker.Complete

"Two souls collided, their paths forever entwined. He, a canvas of stone, softened by love's tender hues, his heart now filled with devotion. She, a melody of words, now a soothing breeze, her soul a calm haven, sheltering him from life's troubles. And he, guarding her heart, his existence a promise of forever, willing to surrender all for the solace of her presence, his heart beating in harmony with hers, a love letter to eternity." (This story is completed but I wanted to edit it so I'll slowly publish each chapter one by one after it's done editing😭❤️)

Imagine waking up in a fantasy land filled with magic. No, wait, you don't need to imagine. It's already overdone. Instead, let's reverse it. Imagine a superhero, living in a Sci-Fi world, and they're coming here. A place that doesn't really need them. There aren't any supervillains (I said SUPER), and they're faced with the hardest challenge yet: finding out how to live a normal life. That's what Harper is facing when she wakes up in a hospital bed, with a mom she doesn't know, and a past that's not hers. This is the story of Harper Dollinger, and the life she starts anew. There's no beginning, middle, and end. No heroic climax where she almost dies but it just makes things interesting. No. There is only living. And powers, she still has those...Complete
Sirens
This is a story I wrote for NANOWRIMO. It has some "mature scenes", but there's no swearing. (Not what Melody actually looks like <) Melody. Normally a beautiful sound that brings peace or happiness, but this melody brings death. Who created her, she can't remember. For roughly three-hundred years, she's been compliant to King Zephyrus' commands, mainly because Ivan is terrifying. But, Merna changes things. Merna knows who created Melody, and where he is. What will it take to be human once again? Is it possible at all?Complete
