Heartbeat Update: I'll preface with saying I don't want to get anyone's hopes up and I can't commit to anything.
          
          Firstly, for anyone that literally started reading Heartbeat within the last twenty-four hours and were very close to the end, I apologize for the timing of what I've done. Which was deleting the last 7 1/2 chapters of Heartbeat (book 2). You can finish reading the original story on fanfiction.net and archive of our own. Start with chapter - Endearment.
          
          What I can say, is that the end of Endearment was cut and updated to reflect changes I'm considering to the end of book 2 to better set up for book 3. At this point, I think some of you may know and remember the story better than me. Details, plot points or drops, quite a few of Chekhov's guns in there. But that's okay.
          
          I need to thank all of you that have left messages on my page and comments on the story. Your support is overwhelmingly heartfelt and I don't think there's anything like it in the world. 
          
          Realistic view going forward: The adult world is taking up the majority of my life, and I have no work-life balance, so again, do not get your hopes up. I'd hate to mislead you guys but I truly do want to finish Alec and Saffiya's story.  If you get a notification that a new chapter was published on Heartbeat, it will not be new. Not for a while, at least. So you can ignore the notification, it's just me and Wattpad's interface having trouble :)
          
          With gratitude and hope,
          Ro

Hiii, I hope you’re okay. 
          Any plans of coming back with “Heartbeat”?

Please come back soon! 

Hello, do you think you'll finish Heartbeat anytime soon? I love this story! No pressure or anything, I just saw earlier you said you were taking a break and wanted to know if anything changed.  I hope you are feeling better! 

Hi Ro,
          I still think about Heartbeat every single day. I find myself checking your profile from time to time, hoping that maybe — just maybe — there’s a new update or even just a small message from you. But even when there isn’t, I just want you to know that I’m still here, quietly rooting for you.
          
          Your story means so much to me. It’s one of those works that stays with you long after you’ve read it — the kind that makes you feel deeply and remember why stories matter in the first place. You’ve created something truly special, and I hope one day you find the same spark of inspiration, purpose, and love for writing that Heartbeat has given to so many of us.
          
          Take all the time you need, Ro. We’ll be here when you’re ready — still believing in you, still waiting, and still grateful for the world you’ve built through your words. Best of luck and lovelots.

Hi all,
          
          Many of you likely saw this coming before I did. I've tried again and again to keep writing - picking up random scenes or chapters in the last year. But it's finally reached a point where I haven't been able to write anything, let alone for Heartbeat, in a few months. 
          
          I do hope I will be able to finish this story one day. To fall in love with reading and writing again. To clean up the plot and put it into words. But for now, I'm putting Heartbeat on hiatus. 
          
          I want to thank every single person who continues to comment, reach out, and spark up the inspiration this story needed. Heartbeat would never have gotten this far without you, and I am sorry I won't be able to finish it. At least, for now.
          
          Thank you for everything. 
          
          Ro
