Writing realistic, slow-burn romances where friends fall for each other and conversations matter as much as kisses.
Since I've always struggled to find love stories that feel honest but still a little messy and playful, I started writing the kind of stories I wanted to read.
College life, banter, and those quiet moments when everything shifts.
Mostly writing in between life and jotting down way too many notes on my phone (people think I'm scrolling social media, but I'm usually plotting scenes).

Currently sharing "To The Framing Nook, 47 Pine Crescent", a friends-to-lovers romance.
Working on its sequel, where the lights go out and truths come out.

"There's this thing we do now. No lights. No glances. No deciphering."
