Was mein Herz spürt, versuche ich zu verstehen. Was es spricht, versuche ich nieder zuschreiben. Eine kleine Gedichtsammlung über jemanden, der manchmal mit seinem Herzen und Gefühlen zu kämpfen hat.

"Rainy days and love confessions" is about the very little life experience I have made in 17 years of being on earth. It handles topics like love, heart break, nature and fears. Overall things that have encountered us all throughout our lives and that sometimes seem to overwhelm us in a certain way. It is not written in a specific order and follows no actual pattern. Feel free to read it however you like and however you feel called to.

From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Sweet Thing and Nowhere But Here comes a love story about a Craigslist “missed connection” post that gives two people a second chance at love fifteen years after they were separated in New York City. To the Green-eyed Lovebird: We met fifteen years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding… I didn’t see you again until a month ago. It was a Wednesday. You were rocking back on your heels, balancing on that thick yellow line that runs along the subway platform, waiting for the F train. I didn’t know it was you until it was too late, and then you were gone. Again. You said my name; I saw it on your lips. I tried to will the train to stop, just so I could say hello. After seeing you, all of the youthful feelings and memories came flooding back to me, and now I’ve spent the better part of a month wondering what your life is like. I might be totally out of my mind, but would you like to get a drink with me and catch up on the last decade and a half? M

Maxon Chambers has a way of stealing all the attention. All my affection, and all my dreams. What I needed to remember was he'd stolen my good judgment and my virginity, too. When he broke up with me, I ran across the country and swore I'd never return to Broadshire Rim. But here I am, thirteen years later. Maxon is all grown up. Sexier than sin and more tempting than ever. A detective on the Charleston force, he lives on the outside of safety, devoted to protecting the people of his city. But with the way he's looking at me now? I'm pretty sure what needs protecting is my heart. Can we mend the pieces of us? Or will he leave my heart shattered forever . . .

Two boys meet during their childhood. Admittedly, the circumstances of their first meeting are uncanny but it doesn't make the relationship that blooms between them any less lovely. In their adolescence days they meet again. There are always things that are bound to change over time and things that will never change. Terrible and beautiful things.

Hurt people hurt people. Say there was a novel in which Holden Caulfield was an alcoholic and Lolita was a photographer’s assistant and, somehow, they met in Bright Lights, Big City. He’s blinded by love. She by ambition. Diary of an Oxygen Thief is an honest, hilarious, and heartrending novel, but above all, a very realistic account of what we do to each other and what we allow to have done to us.
