Chicklit Stories

Two Floors Down isn't romance. ‎ ‎It's desire under pressure. ‎ ‎It's temptation disguised as accident. ‎ ‎It's guilt in silk sheets, a secret that breathes beside you at night and asks two visceral questions: ‎ ‎If the person you're falling for left their soul in your hands... would you read it? And if you did, would you ever admit it? ‎ ‎This is not a love story built on fate. ‎It is built on trespass. On hunger. ‎On silence that grows claws. ‎ ‎Two Floors Down is impossible to put down because it knows something most romances refuse to confess: ‎Love is not ruined by betrayal. ‎It is sharpened by it. ‎ ‎It began with a misdelivered package. ‎And a transgression she told herself she would undo tomorrow.

Aria Bennett has always stayed in the background. She's quiet, focused, and used to being overlooked. Especially by Cole Maddox, her twin brother's best friend and the school's popular quarterback. But everything starts to shift when Cole begins noticing her too. Study sessions turn into something more. Glances linger. And the hoodie she wears starts to feel like a secret only they understand. Their connection feels real. It also feels completely off limits. But what happens when she falls for the one person she's not supposed to fall for? A slow burn on and off the field. *** I'm currently editing some chapters so I've changed the status to ongoing. I've also changed the cover and it's way better now. I'm not gonna unpublish chapters for anyone who's already read it because they're not major changes. I might add a new chapter/s towards the end as I'm thinking of making this into a 3 part series and maybe a spin-off but we'll see how this story does. Thank you for reading!!

However, both he and Sol are thrown for a loop when feelings begin to develop between them.

Levi Howard is a senior wide receiver with a reputation built on discipline, distance, and control. He knows who Genevieve Owen is-the twin sister of his quarterback and someone who has always been off-limits. Other than quick hellos at parties or games, he doesn't really know her. And he's never tried to. Genevieve Owen is a fashion design senior with an eye for detail and a confidence shaped by love and stability. Raised in a warm, close-knit family, she believes in loyalty, second chances, and showing up for the people you care about. She knows Levi as her brother's teammate and friend: popular, talented and quietly mysterious. Unlike most football players, he doesn't sleep around much-which only fuels the whispers she's heard in passing halls. Hot. Untouchable. Just impressions. Nothing more. They come from opposite worlds. Genevieve's family is everything to her-a constant source of support, comfort, and grounding. Levi comes from a wealthy but broken home, where love was replaced with distance and expectations. For him, family isn't something you're born into-it's something you earn. His football team is the only family he ever knew. They're strangers sharing the same campus-until senior year places them in the same class. And then pairs them together for the entire semester. For Levi, Genevieve is a boundary he refuses to cross. For Genevieve, Levi is a mystery she can't quite figure out-and she's always loved a challenge. It isn't love at first sight. It's restraint and curiosity. Warmth colliding with walls built for survival. Conversations that begin professionally and slowly become personal. A connection that builds quietly, deliberately, and dangerously.

Each from different backgrounds, they share their successes, disappointments, and the excitement of the first semester of their freshman year in college. **** College-is it what you expected?

Can you really make all your dreams and hopes come true? You? Tori, Holly, Samantha, and Julie, first semester freshmen at the university on the hill, don't voice those questions. Not when they have lunch together, not when they study, not when they party. But the questions hang in the air all around them. Finding each other, they figure, is one of the saving graces of their lives. Or is it? Why do there have to be conflicts? Why do somebody else's decisions have to cause you problems? How do you work it out? You have to work it out. Because nobody wants to go it alone. Not for a hot minute.
