When Saydi Moretti returns to her former home in Lake Forest, California, she finds that things were not as she left them. There is a shift in the air that she didn't expect in her homecoming that sends her farther back in her mind than her very age. That shift's name is Paris Vincent. He is familiar to her in a way he shouldn't be, because they've never met before. But she can't shake the feeling that they have. Suddenly, the city and her life become a broader spectrum of visions she can't begin to understand. Saydi starts having strange dreams of Paris, a clearing in a forest, and an old ship.
But who is Paris Vincent?
She begins to dig deep, finding that what seems so impossible in the world is truer than she could have imagined. Saydi has a strange past that echoes through centuries and has only begun her life written for a place in this world that only she can fill. In an intense war inside her own head, she begins to resurface and find that her memory is a powerful ally, guiding her through familiar faces and stories meant to be legends. She has to work to fit pieces of her together, find out where Paris fits, trace back her family's legacy and know her true name because it may be more powerful than even she could have fathomed.

Where Time Forgot Us
What if the dream you couldn't forget... was a memory from a life you never lived? Solene never believed in soulmates, fate, or past lives-until she dreamed of him. A boy with brown eyes. A forgotten notebook. And two simple words: "Found you." She woke up shaken. Days later, she saw him in real life-walking past her like the world hadn't just shifted. But there's one problem: he doesn't know her. Not yet. As strange coincidences unfold and timelines begin to blur, Solene and Cael are pulled into a mystery that feels bigger than either of them-like the universe is trying to remind them of something they once had, and lost. Memories that never happened. Places they've never been... but somehow remember. A love story trapped between versions. Somewhere in all the timelines, they were real. The question is-can they find their way back in this one? A soft, slow-burn romance about love, memory, and the version of us that stays.Complete

Love In The Shadow (18+ | Litmatch Lovestory)
Prologue - When Hearts Break Betrayal doesn't scream. It whispers. It seeps in like poison, invisible at first, until one day you wake up and realize you've been dying quietly inside. That was me. A wife. A mother. A woman discarded for someone else's smile on a glowing screen. He was supposed to be my forever. Instead, he became my wound. Eight months later, I'm still learning how to breathe without bleeding. Two children look at me with eyes too wise for their years. Han, seventeen, carrying silence like armor. Bella, six, asking me why Ami cries at night when the world is asleep. I tell her it's just allergies. She doesn't believe me. Some nights, I wonder if I still exist beyond the roles I'm forced to carry-mother, provider, survivor. Is there still a woman left inside me? Or did she die the night she saw the truth blinking on his phone? And then, in the middle of that loneliness, I met him. Not in the real world, but behind a username. Mr× A stranger with shadows darker than mine. A man broken by betrayal, scarred by addiction, living with an illness that became his shame. We should have never crossed paths. But broken souls recognize each other. And sometimes, even in the darkest places, love finds a way to whisper back. This isn't a fairy tale. This is a story of two wounded hearts, meeting in the rain of their ruins, daring to dream of sunlight again.!["𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞" [ BOOK - 1 ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/394887789-256-k403548.jpg)
"𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞" [ BOOK - 1 ]
Lyra Ainsley is just a regular college student or at least, that's what she thought. Since she was ten years old, she's been having the same strange dreams over and over again. In them, she sees two people: one is a king, and the other is a warrior. But it's always the king who stands out. She dreams of dancing with him, talking with him, feeling completely safe by his side. For years, Lyra convinced herself it was all just her imagination. That is, until she started college and saw him. The king from her dreams. He was real. His name? Adrian Caellum Virell. A fellow student at her university. From that moment, her world turned upside down. She realized those dreams weren't just dreams. They were memories. Pieces of something real. Something from the past. But then... there's the warrior. The one she barely remembers. His face never appeared clearly, and his presence in her dreams was always quick, like a whisper. Unlike the king, she doesn't feel the need to search for him. Maybe because he's still a stranger in her mind. Will she ever meet the warrior in real life? Or will she let him go, and stay with the king who feels so familiar? Why is she even having these dreams in the first place? Is it truly her past she's remembering or something her heart made up to fill a void? And if it is her past... what really happened back then? What's the reason she's seeing it all now? She doesn't know yet. But soon, she will.Complete

𝐑𝐞𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐧 𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐬
She was shattered, her past erased by pain, her voice stolen by trauma. He was a ruler-not just of politics but of the shadows where justice was a debt paid in blood. Ruthless to those who took justice for granted, yet never cruel to the innocent. At an early age, he learned one truth-power commands justice. Without it, you're nothing. That night, their worlds collided. He found her-battered, nameless, drowning in silence. He should've walked away. But something about her... felt familiar. A forgotten memory. A name lost in time. A connection buried beneath scars. She had no past she was willing to share. He had a childhood he never let go of. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it rewrites the story in the most ruthless ways. Some scars don't just heal... they reveal. And when the truth surfaces, will it mend what was lost or destroy them both? A story of pain, justice and an unexpected love that blooms in the darkest places.
Meant to Be
Precognition. This is what Luna can feel. It’s the power to see the future; whether it is her future or someone else’s. However… She cannot control it… It is unpredictable. It comes with just the slightest skin contact, and it doesn’t matter where or who she touched, for that familiar dizziness may come to her, freezing her in place as she is mentally transported into the future. It can takes minutes, it can take an hour, it can take long enough that people will stare and think of calling 911. That is what made her hide herself from the rest of society, and what made her keep to the shadows of her home in Georgia her entire life. It didn’t help when her father and younger sister died. Following the tragic family deaths, her mother was in a state of shock for five years straight before suddenly announcing they were moving away. Now, Luna is living in sunny California. Meant to be… Something good and something bad… It had been the vision she had received before the sudden move… But what will happen? Was the something good the boy she just met? Is he the good thing that was to happen? If so, then what was the bad thing? Luna will try to avoid this subject, but as the days grow windier and the sky grows darker, Luna needs to find out what is coming for her before it is to late… but can she fight it? Was this what was meant to be?Complete
