Summary
Ellie Williams leaves the safety of her Texas ranch for college carrying anxiety, a guarded heart, and a fierce devotion to the people she loves. Anchored by her lifelong best friend Jesse and quietly undone by Dina—warm, magnetic, and far more complicated than Ellie is ready for—she finds herself caught between longing and loyalty. As late nights, shared glances, and almost confessions blur the line between friendship and something dangerously real, Ellie must confront her fear of abandonment and decide whether risking her heart is worth the fallout.

Summary
Captain Ellie Williams is an AWOL Galactic Military officer drifting through the stars, scavenging dead ships to pass the time in a universe quietly collapsing behind the scenes. No civilian knows the end is coming. Ellie does.
When she docks with an abandoned research vessel, she expects scrap, parts, and maybe a good story.
What she finds instead is a mystery bigger than her, and a woman who shouldn’t be alive at all.
With only her ship and her Cognitive Companion Unit (CCU), Rex, Ellie sets out to uncover who this woman is, why she was left alone on a dead ship, and what universe-bending secrets might be locked inside her mind.
Join me for a Space Odyssey Dellie AU filled with adventure, exploration, banter, danger, mystery, and a whole lot of unexpected love wrapped in one massive, cosmic package.

Summary
Ellie Miller has spent twenty years building a life she can stand. She produces records in Nashville, owns a condo, and has her name tucked into liner notes. Her routine is set: late nights in the studio, crowded music halls, and just enough distance from Silverlake to pretend it never really mattered.
Then one call pulls her home to where she’s needed, back into the town she gave up on long ago. Silverlake is waiting with the gym she refuses to walk into, the twenty-year reunion emails she keeps deleting, and the people she has avoided for more than half her life. Most of all Dina, the ghost she has never been able to outrun. Will Ellie discover that not everything in Silverlake was what it seemed, and that even broken bonds can be mended into something stronger than before?

Summary
Dina’s a 22-year-old English major with a crush on the kind of girl who only dates cool, confident queers. Dina is none of those things. She’s never dated a girl, panics whenever she tries, and the one time she made eye contact with her in the campus café, she dropped her phone into her latte.
Ellie is also 22, a college senior, and one failing grade away from blowing her art degree and losing her scholarship. She needs to pass Contemporary Poetry and the Queer Form to graduate, and she needs help doing it.
Ellie’s dated enough girls to know how the game works. She does not have time for someone else’s gay panic. But she’s also just desperate enough to say yes when Dina proposes a trade: tutoring for tutoring. Books for girls. Clean deal.
Until it isn’t.
Because the more time they spend together in study sessions and late-night practice flirting, the more the plot starts to shift.
Will Dina get the unattainable girl of her dreams?
Will Ellie survive poetry with her GPA and emotional detachment intact?
Or will they both realize they’ve been writing the wrong story all along?The College AU/Tutoring AU/Cyrano De Bergerac AU trifecta you didn't expect from me.

Summary
Dina is a rising star with a carefully managed image and a stalker who won’t go away. When things escalate, her team brings in private security, and Ellie Williams shows up—ex-military and not at all what Dina expected. She seems like all control and calm. She isn’t. Not when it comes to Dina.
Ellie’s job is simple. Keep Dina safe. Stay professional. Follow a strict moral code.
What follows is a dual POV slow-burn bodyguard romance featuring emotional repression, late-night yearning, and at least one security risk caused by being extremely, painfully gay.

Summary
"The air catches dry in her throat all the same as she runs her hand over the soft, worn fabric. She brings it close to her face, slowly closes her eyes, and breathes in the lingering scent.
It smells like…
...like the earth out in the woods.
Like the soap they all share in the bath, tinged with lavender.
Like the oil she watched Ellie rub into the fretboard of her old guitar.
Like whiskey.
Like Ellie.
She can almost feel her again, right there with her. Like Ellie is still standing behind her, arms wrapping around her waist, fingers tugging at her hips, breath warm on her neck. Her mouth brushing the skin just below her ear, whispering low, asking if she wants her to stop.
God. How did she ever tell her to stop?
She should have never told her to stop."
A slow burn, Dina-centric story about how love lingers, and whether it can ever find its way back home through the wreckage it leaves behind.

Summary
Dina Rubin plays with vision. Ellie Williams plays like she’s got something to prove.
From high school rivals to college adversaries to professional hopefuls stuck in the same locker room, this is five years of late tackles, near-misses, sideways glances, and stubborn silence.
It’s an AU. It’s soccer. It’s lesbians.
It’s enemies to friends to something more… maybe.And yes, there’s a lot of yearning.

Summary
Turning thirty wasn’t supposed to be a crisis.
Ellie’s over her evil ex, ready to put herself out there, and definitely not spiraling about the state of her game (or lack thereof).But after some spectacularly bad flirting and one very unexpected complication, her plan for chill, drama-free personal growth might be... on fire.
Which feels rude, since-ya know-she fights fires for a living.
No trope is safe from me, not even Friends With Benefits.
