When her therapy app accidentally sends Riley's private confessions to a random British expat - and his to her - what began as a glitch quickly evolves into the kind of intimacy that can only exist between strangers. A slow-burn contemporary romance. * * * When a company health initiative forces Riley Markle to download a trendy mental health app, she fills out the onboarding survey without much thought, expecting to get paired with a virtual gym buddy who'll send thumbs-up emojis twice a week. Instead, she gets paired with Joe, a lonely British expat whose wellness concern of Compulsive Behaviors is flagged by the AI system as a perfect match for Riley. Riley resolves to complete her month of check-ins and be done with it - until a glitch in the app sends both her and Joe's embarrassing therapy videos to each other instead of their therapist. Soon, Riley and Joe are talking late into the night, exchanging thirst-trap videos of their weekend routines by day, and thinking about each other constantly. Both are smitten, both are broken, and neither of them knows how to do this without destroying each other. The plan: Limit all communication to the app until after Day 30, then see where things go. But plans change. * * * 🏆 High Rankings: #1 in LITERARY #1 in QUICKREAD #1 in NEWENGLAND #1 in SHORTCHAPTERS (out of 38,000 stories) #3 in EPISTOLARY #87 in ROMCOM (out of 35,000 stories) #147 in ROMANTIC (out of 86,000 stories) Updated November 2025

However, when he's unexpectedly called back to Almia with concerns about the Rainbow Bird Pokémon, Parity and Blue-Bird, he never expects to run into Ash, Brock, and Dawn again, who ask to go with him. Although reluctant, Kellyn agrees they can come, as long as they keep their distance and let him complete his mission himself, but that proves difficult with Ash's clumsiness, curiosity, and love for Pokémon--and when the mission turns out to be more dangerous than Kellyn thought. When nefarious forces rise, the Pokémon team must work together before it's too late for not only them, but also all of Almia and Sinnoh. Nonetheless, Kellyn is not too eager to ask for help. *** * A Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia and Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Battle Dimension fanfic.* * A Pokémon Rainbow and Blue (my own region) story.* *Main tropes: grumpyxsunshine (not graphic), found family, slowburn.* *Moral: "Don't be afraid of failure."*

A forward-facing poetry collection centered on identity, self-trust, and connection. Moving beyond survival and reflection, it explores readiness, personal accountability, emotional boundaries, discipline, and shared humanity. Where previous volumes processed pain, this one defines direction. It is a declaration of who the speaker is becoming and an invitation to realize that we are not as distant from one another as we think.

Devil on Her Shoulder is a collection of poetry written from the quiet places trauma leaves behind: the thoughts never spoken, the emotions carried in silence, and the parts of healing that don't happen all at once. These poems explore trauma, body image, mental health, self-perception, and the inner voice that can be both a comfort and a destroyer. These poems hold the thoughts that never left me and show the reality of living through trauma and learning how to live with yourself afterward. This book was written for anyone who has ever felt too much, not enough, or completely alone in their own thoughts. If you see yourself in these words, you were always meant to find them. With love, Lexie Kathleen Tags: Poetry, Poems, Poem, Relatable, Short Chapters, Mental Health, Emotions, Personal feelings
