We’re all storytellers in one way or another—some of us just like to write it down so the stories don’t get lost. Writing has always been on my radar, sometimes as a quiet thought in the back of my mind, other times as something I just can’t ignore. I’ve been writing and telling stories for as long as I can remember, shaping characters, building worlds, and letting my imagination run wild. And if I’m not writing, I’m probably reading because to be a good storyteller, you first have to listen before you create. Thanks for stopping by!

ONGOING✅️ Estelle Laurent has spent her entire life mastering the art of survival. As the only daughter of two ruthless business moguls, she’s never been the golden child—just another asset to be leveraged. So when her parents demand she marry Miles Marriot, the notorious playboy heir to a billion-dollar empire, for the sake of a corporate merger, Estelle does what she does best: plans her escape. She has three months to find a way out.But Miles Marriot isn’t the spoiled, self-absorbed heir the tabloids paint him to be. He’s charming, infuriatingly perceptive, and completely unfazed by her icy sarcasm. Worse, he seems amused by her attempts to derail the engagement. And then there’s the orphanage—the one place Estelle has poured her heart (and hidden her money) into for years. The Laurents hold it hostage, threatening to wipe it from existence if she refuses the marriage.With her hands tied and her future slipping through her fingers, Estelle is left with no choice but to play the game. But as lines blur and sparks ignite, one terrifying truth becomes clear, She might just lose more than her freedom—she might lose her heart to the one man she swore to despise.

Ongoing✅️ Maxinne is a straight-A student with a tuition problem. Between her part-time jobs that barely cover the essentials, she's come up with a solution-rehoming Mr. Fuzzypants, her adaptable (and surprisingly profitable) cat, to clueless wealthy people. It's not unethical. She tells herself-it's strategic. Rich people love novelty, and Maxinne needs the cash. Everyone wins, right? It's a foolproof system. Until it's not. This time, the buyer isn't some clueless elite she'll never see again. No, this time it's Rafe Bentley-star athlete, all-around bad boy, and a walking definition of everything Maxinne's not. He's used to getting whatever he wants: top grades, the attention of girls, and game-winning goals. Life, for him, is one giant cheat code. He has money, looks, and talent, and he's not shy about flaunting it. He's also annoyingly too interested in her business. Which, at first, is whatever-until it isn't. When the deal goes south, Mr. Fuzzypants end up stuck in the middle. And that's when everything goes sideways. What starts as an accidental collision between two very different worlds quickly turns into something neither of them saw coming. As the cat situation spirals out of control, Maxinne finds herself tangled in a mess of her not so shady business (maybe?), rich-boy problems, and the guy who, for reasons she can't figure out, won't leave her alone.
