♥️ MOCKINGBIRD IS OFFICIALLY COMPLETE ♥️
          
          Besties… Mockingbird is ✨DONE✨ ☺️☺️
          The Epilogue is now UP, and I’m still sitting here like… did that really just happen???
          
          From the bottom of my wrecked little heart — thank you to every single one of you who read, voted, commented, screamed, went feral in my comments, lost your minds with me, and added Mockingbird to your reading lists. You showed UP. And I felt every bit of it. ☺️✨
          
          I genuinely did not expect Ali and Raven’s story to be loved the way it was. I almost quit this book. I even finished The Au Pair first because I thought no one was really interested. And then suddenly—BOOM. Readers. Love. Chaos.
          And now Mockingbird has surpassed the reads for The Au Pair and I’m just— I'M DEAD.
          
          So let me give a huge, screaming, feral shout-out to my reader angels & author friends:

          If I missed anyone (and I probably did because my brain is soup right now), please nudge me — I owe you a personal round of THANK YOU SCREAMING. ☺️
          
          And just like Raven —
          If life tried to break you: fight through it.
          If trauma tried to mark you: don’t let it own you.
          Put on some bad-ass eyeliner.
          Get a tattoo.
          Let the scars be proof that you survived — and that you’re powerful as hell. ♥️✨
          
          If you haven’t read Mockingbird yet, this is your sign.
          Pain. Love. Healing. Obsession. Soft boys with sharp edges.
          Come cry with us.

Hey there! 
          First off, huge congrats on being part of the 2025 Watty Awards! That's amazing! I’d love to do a read for read with you if you’re open to it. I enjoy connecting with passionate writers and sharing feedback. Let me know if you’re up for it, I think it’d be super fun and inspiring for both of us :)
          Also, I wish you a very happy new year!

Heyyyyy!!!! Happy New Year! Lots of Love baby!!! 

I CHALLENGED MYSELF.
          
          ✨ Merry Christmas, my loves—and a Happy New Year, too! ✨
          
          I’m so excited (and a little terrified) to finally share my new story with you:
          
          ♥️ THE SWEETEST LIE ♥️
          
          If you know me, you know I’m usually knee-deep in smut, chaos, and feral yearning LOL
          So this story?
          This was a challenge.
          
          I pushed myself to write YA/NA intimacy without explicit scenes—keeping it classy, emotional, and true to the genre. And let me tell you... writing heat without spelling everything out is WAY harder than writing smut 
          
          But that’s exactly why I fell in love with this story.
          
          The Sweetest Lie is all about:
          ♥️ longing
          ♥️ stolen looks
          ♥️ unsaid feelings
          ♥️ soft touches
          ♥️ emotional tension that makes your chest ache
          
          It’s yearning over spice.
          Feelings over filth.
          And honestly? It might be some of the most vulnerable writing I’ve ever done.
          
          If you loved:
          ✨ To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before
          ✨ The Summer I Turned Pretty
          ✨ If I Stay
          
          …then I truly believe The Sweetest Lie might be for you ♥️
          
          So if you’re open to something softer, emotional, and quietly devastating—please give it a chance. I’d love to know what you think.
          
          Thank you for always supporting me, even when I try something new ♥️☺️
          Here’s to more stories, more feelings, and more late-night reading sessions in the new year.
          
          All my love,
          ✨ Aina/StardustHex

Hey ! 
          I'm sorry, I noticed that unintentionally, I used the same image for one of my book covers. I never meant to copy you. Do you want me to change the image?

Hiiii ✨☺️
          
          I just want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who participated in The Wattys 2025 Winners Reading Event, especially those of you who genuinely read Bloodlines: The Blood Witch, left comments, and stayed until the very end. Not just for the prizes or coins, but because you truly cared about the story. That means more to me than I can ever explain. ♥️
          
          A huge thank you as well to Wattpad for hosting such a one-of-a-kind event. I’m beyond grateful that my other books Bloodlines: The Tethered Soul, and the Bloodlines spin-offs Sins of the Damned and Sins of the Flesh, also received their own recognition. My heart is very, very full right now. ✨
          
          I also owe a small apology... I promise I’ll be catching up on my TBR this week. Real life has been a little wild lately, and I was out of town the entire weekend, but I haven’t forgotten anyone. ♥️
          
          Wishing you all a good night, and a fresh, beautiful start to the week ahead. Thank you for being here, for reading, and for supporting my stories always. ♥️☺️
          
          Love you lots,
          AINA/StardustHex

I DID IT.  ♥️✨
          After blood, sweat, tears, and an unreasonable amount of emotional damage...
          THE AU PAIR IS FINALLY COMPLETE! (Cries in French lol)
          
          This story owned my heart in ways I didn’t expect. Adri. Dom. Mattie.
          Messy, broken, complicated, loving, hurting, healing humans who made bad choices, loved too hard, and survived anyway.
          
          Thank you, truly, to everyone who stayed with me through the heartbreak, the drama, the chaos, the trauma, and everything in between. Thank you for crying with Adri, hurting with Dom, yearning with Mattie, and still choosing to stay. Your comments and support carried this story to the finish line. 
          
          ♥️ Special thanks to my author friends Donna and Steve who supported me all the way ☺️✨ from the nit picks to the feral, crazy comments, your love and support means soooo much to me ♥️
          
          I’m incredibly proud of The Au Pair.
          I didn’t write perfect heroes. I made villains out of every main character bahaha 
          and somehow, y'all still loved them. That means everything to my dark little heart.
          
          To my readers: thank you for trusting me with this story.
          To those who haven’t read it yet: if you love emotionally messy characters, slow-burn yearning, painful growth, and love that refuses to die… maybe give The Au Pair a chance 
          
          From the bottom of my heart... thank you for being here.
          This book exists because of you.
