Feb 17, 2025| The Billionaire’s Second Chance :: Chapter One

Cross Innovations’ CEO can close billion-dollar deals… but can he survive preschool drop-off?

Rowan Hart has spent the last five years juggling single motherhood, disastrous jobs, and just enough caffeine to survive. She’s made peace with the chaos-until she lands the perfect job… and runs smack into the only man she ever loved.

Damien Cross.
Her first love.
Her biggest mistake.
And-oh yeah-the father of her child.

Now, Rowan has a choice: keep running or face the billionaire CEO who’s about to learn he has a very sassy five-year-old daughter. Damien isn’t just furious-he’s determined. He missed five years, and he won’t miss another second. Not with Nessa. Not with Rowan.

His solution? A deal. A temporary move into his penthouse. A little shared custody. A whole lot of unfinished business.

But living together means late nights, stolen looks, and one problem Rowan wasn’t prepared for:

Damien wants a second chance.

And this time? He’s not letting her go.

Dec 23, 2024| Six Years Between Us: A New Year’s Short Story

Zara Novati and Lucern “Luce” Tallett were inseparable in high school—mischief-makers, confidants, and best friends who balanced each other in ways neither of them fully understood. But one impulsive night changed everything. A passionate kiss, a misunderstanding fueled by social expectations, and a painful silence drove them apart.

Six years later, Zara and Luce are brought face-to-face at a New Year’s Eve party neither wanted to attend. Zara’s fiery independence clashes with Luce’s polished charm as unresolved feelings and lingering hurt bubble to the surface. When a mischievous twist locks them in a room together, they’re forced to confront the past they’ve both tried to bury.

As the clock ticks toward midnight, tensions rise, secrets unravel, and sparks reignite. Can they untangle the pain of yesterday to find the love that was always meant to be? Or will they let another chance slip through their fingers?
