A Little More than Gone
Faith lives in the quiet-silent when she's sober, reckless when she's not. She drowns her nights in alcohol and smoke, chasing a happiness that never lasts. It's easier to stay numb than to feel the weight pressing in from every side. Then there's Dominick. Light where she's dark, steady where she's chaos. He shouldn't see her, but he does. And no matter how hard she pushes him away, he keeps coming back. This is not a fairy tale. It's a love story tangled with ruin and survival, about two people colliding slowly, painfully, until the walls between them begin to crack. Dark, raw, and unflinching-this is a romance about what it means to fall in love when you don't believe you deserve it.

Tactical Gambit [Mile x Apo]
Through an antiquated blood-contract of decades past, Mile Phakphum Romsaithong finds himself bound to be married for a minimum of one year to the contract holder's only child, Apo Nattawin Wattanagitiphat. Born with a golden spoon in his mouth, servants that did everything for him, Mile makes automatic assumptions of his future husband's personality based off of the family he was coming from. Even after time has passed between them, their home was only an icebox that held their mundane greetings to each other, barely there glances, and their contract stipulated one night/one morning meals. He would much rather work ... until he notices Apo returning home late, littered with bruises, and cancellations of their meals. Understanding his husband becomes as hard a task as investigating an elusive vigilante with surreal golden eyes, a mischievous streak, and both held his attention equally. Will they discover that there was more to Apo than met the eye? (Detective x Vigilante) Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction set in an alternate universe.Complete

New Feeling - MILES FAIRCHILD
After Kate has a mental breakdown and is sent to an insane asylum, the Fairchilds get a new nanny. One with a daughter who finds interest in Miles. And perhaps Miles may find interest in her. Something certainly different from the kinds of feelings he's felt for others. Trigger Warning: this story actually has rough topics such as mental health, abuse, and suicide. If you struggle or have struggled with any of these issues, I advise you to please read something else. Wattpad is a big enough site that you don't need to read something to put your mental health at risk. (Discontinued) Reboot on my New Account: @writerisabellepeaceComplete
