Author Update ✍
          	
          	Hey y’all.
          	
          	I wanted to take a moment to check in and give a quick update.
          	
          	The top of this year has been… heavy for me. From losing my grandfather, to losing my job, to just life shifting in ways I didn’t expect—I’ve needed time to process, rest, and get myself back grounded.
          	
          	Because of that, I know I haven’t been as consistent as I normally am, and I appreciate everyone who has stayed patient with me.
          	
          	With that being said… we’re getting back to it.
          	
          	 New chapters will begin dropping again toward the end of April, and moving into May, updates will become more frequent and consistent.
          	This story means a lot to me, and so do the people reading it. I’m not walking away from it—I just needed a moment to breathe.
          	
          	Thank you for staying with me.

FROM THE DESK OF C. NÉCOLE ✍
          
          A little housekeeping before we move forward…
          
           New chapters of Only If You Stay will be dropping all throughout April.
          We’re not slowing down — we’re getting deeper into the story.
          
          
           And this summer…
          A new book is coming.
          
          Different vibe.
          Same pen.
          Same intentional storytelling.
          
          
          If you’ve been here, stay locked in.
          If you’re new, this is your time to catch up.
          We’re just getting started.

Heyyyy sistahhhs!
          
          
          I present to you Only If You Stay — The Official Soundtrack.
          A curated book playlist capturing the intention, the chemistry, and the commitment of Nahlej and Ziya.
          For the love that does not rush… and does not leave.
          Curated by Author C. Nécole

          EXECUTIVE NOTE
          This soundtrack was curated to mirror the emotional pacing of Only If You Stay.
          Whether love comes easy or takes patience, whether it arrives quietly or with intensity, these songs reflect choosing someone fully—without shortcuts, without fear, and without walking away when things deepen.
          This is the sound of intention.
          The sound of chemistry turning into commitment.
          The sound of love that does not rush, does not retreat, and does not disappear when it is asked to stay.
