Reese Hickman has no plans for the summer but to relax while reading, sit poolside, and work on her junk journal. But between an ex-bestfriend and an ex-boyfriend reappearing in her life, being relaxed seems impossible. Forced to work beside the two people who walked out of her life, Reese's summer is turned upside down as she learns more about the friend she thought she knew like a sister and the guy who broke her heart.

They started as voices... not faces. Before they ever met before names, before reality they found each other in silence. A whisper in the mind. A presence in the dark. A voice that wasn't imagined... but felt. It should've been impossible. And yet it wasn't. Four completely different lives, in two different countries, with no reason to collide and still, somehow... they do. Jarek Vance, a global singer with a voice the entire world knows by heart. Gaksyn Drax his manager, his brother, the one who knows everything the world doesn't... close enough for the world to start shipping them. Jace Kaldro chasing dreams that refuse to stay small, no matter how impossible people make them... kind, stubborn, and just chaotic enough to never back down. Gracia Elorin quietly becoming more than she lets anyone see... a bookworm, a gentle soul, always holding others together while still searching for where she belongs. None of them were looking for this. They just... found each other. They could talk without speaking. Feel without touching. Understand without explaining. And the worst part? It doesn't stop. Across distance. Across time. Across lives that were never meant to intertwine. something keeps pulling them back. Again. And again. As if their souls have done this before. As if, somewhere in a life they don't remember, they made promises they never got to keep. But the closer they get to finding each other in the real world, the stronger the connection becomes and the more it begins to unravel truths they were never meant to find. Because some bonds aren't new. They're remembered. And some promises... don't just stay broken. They always find their way back to each other.

They were once a couple-bound by love, torn apart by fate. In a world where nothing remains as it seems, she finds herself drawn to a mysterious presence that is not entirely human... a being that watches, protects, and transforms. What begins as fear slowly turns into something far more complicated-something she cannot name. Miles away, he struggles with his own reality, where love takes an unexpected and unfamiliar form. Caught between truth and illusion, he is forced to question everything he once believed about identity, desire, and connection. As their paths drift further apart, both are pulled into worlds where love no longer follows rules-where forms shift, boundaries blur, and hearts are tested beyond human understanding. Will they find their way back to each other... or lose themselves in the shapes they never chose? In the end, love is not about what you see-it's about what you feel.

Hi! I'm a new writer and here are some things for you to know me better.

She didn't come to Velmoor looking for anything. That was the point. Zara Voss needed a town small enough to get lost in, quiet enough to stop thinking, and far enough from everything she'd left behind that the distance felt like permission. A cousin's spare room. Salt air. A harbor full of fishing boats and fog and people who'd known each other their whole lives. Simple. Safe. Temporary. Then she met Kai Drennan, paint on his hands, coffee on her jacket, and a smile that made temporary feel like a negotiable concept. And then Velmoor stopped being simple. This town has a way of looking like one thing from the outside and being something else entirely up close. Everyone here is warm. Everyone here is kind. Everyone here has known everyone else for decades, and they will welcome you in, and they will remember your name, and they will smile at you across harbor market stalls and dinner tables and festival lights strung red over the water. And some of them have been waiting, very quietly, very patiently, for someone exactly like Zara to never arrive. She arrived anyway. Some places choose you. Velmoor chose Zara Voss. It will wish it hadn't. TIDES OF VELMOOR, a story that begins where love stories begin, and ends somewhere else entirely. Fifteen chapters. One devastating twist. And a final reveal that will make you want to go back to page one and read every single word differently. You will not see it coming. The clues were there the whole time.

On a sunlit college campus filled with laughter, late submissions, and the gentle chaos of growing up, two lives begin to intertwine in the most effortless way. Their story doesn't rush-it unfolds softly, like a feeling you don't notice at first but slowly realize you never want to lose. It lives in the in-between moments-shared glances that last a second longer than they should, conversations that wander without purpose, and a quiet comfort that feels both new and strangely familiar. There's a lightness to it all, a sense that something beautiful is taking shape without needing to be named. They don't chase love; they grow into it. With every passing day, what once felt ordinary begins to glow with meaning, as if the smallest moments are quietly turning into memories worth holding on to. And when the moment finally comes, it doesn't arrive with noise or spectacle. It appears in a way so rare, so unexpectedly perfect, that it feels like it was always meant to happen just like this. Slow-burn.
