The Sound of Breaking Waves

Leo Thorne didn’t just fall in love with Maya Vance; he anchored himself to her. And Maya didn’t just love Leo; she found the only shore she ever wanted to crash against. Beginning in the quiet corners of a high school art room, their connection was instant—a slow-burning fuse that spanned fifteen years of longing, leaving, and learning. He was the steady artist, terrified of the tides of change; she was the ambitious musician, desperate to fly but paralyzed by the guilt of leaving him behind. Together, they were perfect. Together, they were a tragedy waiting to happen. The Sound of Breaking Waves is a journey from the innocence of teenage notebooks to the brutal reality of adulthood. It is a story of green flags with jagged edges—two people who are fiercely loyal, yet flawed; kind, yet deeply scarred. Their love is a safe haven filled with laughter, soothing touches, and the kind of friendship that feels like home. But when the pressure builds, their conflicts are rare, explosive hurricanes—moments of loud, chaotic screams that don't wound the skin but shatter the soul, born not from hate, but from the sheer desperation of wanting to be enough. From the heart-stopping awkwardness of first kisses to the hollow ache of separate beds in separate cities, readers will watch Leo and Maya try to navigate a world that seems determined to pull them apart. They will fight. They will break. They will date others. They will scream at the universe. But through the trauma of family loss and the crushing weight of expectations, the invisible string between them never snaps. Tear-jerking yet soothing, devastating yet full of hope, this is a story for anyone who has ever loved someone enough to let them go—and prayed they would come back.

The Cat between us

The Cat Between Us Xu Jin, a reckless second-generation young master, runs away from his wealthy family in a burst of stubborn rebellion. Determined to prove he can live independently, he buys an apartment, armed with nothing but confidence, a skateboard, and absolutely zero life skills. Meanwhile, Liang Chen, a gentle literature professor, lives quietly next door with his lively grandmother. Their home is calm, tidy, filled with tea fragrance and old books — the opposite of Xu Jin’s chaotic new life. Their paths collide in a pet shop when both try to buy the same white male kitten. A ridiculous bidding war ends with Xu Jin winning the cat, much to Liang Chen’s frustration. Neither realizes they will soon be neighbors — until moving day brings the shocking discovery that they live separated by only one wall. Xu Jin names the kitten Yunhu, and immediately learns that independence is far harder than imagined. He can’t cook, can’t clean properly, and now has a mischievous cat destroying his apartment. Next door, Liang Chen is endlessly annoyed by mysterious crashes, meows, and the unstoppable chaos leaking through the wall — yet secretly, he finds himself wanting to meet the kitten he cannot touch. As days pass, Xu Jin’s unhealthy eating and exhaustion catch up to him. One night, he collapses near his open doorway, too weak to seek help. Yunhu escapes to the corridor and scratches at Liang Chen’s door, leading the professor to discover the half-conscious Xu Jin on the floor. With his grandmother’s help, Liang Chen rushes the taller, delirious young master to the hospital in the middle of the night. Bound together by a white cat, thin walls, and an unexpected emergency, two very different lives begin to intertwine — setting the stage for slow healing, reluctant companionship, and a relationship neither of them saw coming
