Summary: A New F/F Fantasy Romance from the author of Cynthia and Eve. Book 1 of 'The Fae Souls'. When I first arrived at the mansion, I couldn't remember anything. My name, how I'd got there or who the people were around me. I knew I was a woman, and the pink dress and brown ankle boots I wore felt vaguely familiar, but nothing more. It wasn't long before I was told my name was Celina. I was given a suite to stay in and encouraged to prepare for the mysterious Prince Eldran's masquerade party. I found everything I needed in my suite, other than the answers I sought. Fragments of memory hinted at dark experiences, at love and loss, but there was no context and I was uncertain about my history and what the future might hold for me. A stranger at the time, Sorcha found me alone as I sought solace in an empty room. I discovered she too had missing memories, and in her I found a person to talk to. A friend and more, but did we have a chance? A Masquerade in Time is a romantic novella of just over 20,000 words, which contains strong steamy content and language.

Summary: Louis thought he had it all figured out. He couldn’t have been more wrong.   If you ask Louis, he’s a rock star. Just the right amount of sarcastic, cute, and only slightly delusional. He attends the best high school — in Paris no less — has the coolest best friend and the fiercest girlfriend, and he’s absolutely, a hundred per cent straight. So no, Michael, the new British student, with his dark curls and sweet smiles, doesn’t interest him whatsoever. And when a teacher pairs the two to write an essay together and Louis gets all worked up about it, he can always tell himself he doesn’t have a choice. Slowly and inevitably, the two of them become friends, and perhaps a little more. Soon, Michael's presence in Louis's life makes him question everything: his lifestyle, his friendships, and whether he actually ever liked girls.     I Want To Kiss You In Public is a story about friendship, self-love, truth and heartbreak, sprinkled with over-the-top comedy, suitable for fans of Skam, Sex Education and Boyfriend Material. Please check out the content warnings before reading. The Colette International characters act like teens in many ways, including the unsavory ones; such as cussing, drinking, and making mistakes. Influenced by Japanese Boys' Love stories, the series are also unapologetically cartoonish at times.     Information: This novel was reedited and updated in Feb 2023. The ebook version also contains an extract from Colette International Book 2 as a bonus. Readers who purchased a previous edition with important quality issues can now update their copy in their Amazon "Content and Devices" account settings or re-purchase it from their favourite online store.

Guarded and studious, sixteen-year-old aspiring actor Zak favours being alone above all else… except perhaps Alberto, the Italian god from Drama Club, with whom he’s secretly in love. When their drama teacher takes the club to the French countryside to shoot a short film, Zak decides to temporarily hang his introvert hat and joins the party, confident Alberto will be cast as his love interest. Only… by accident or by mistake, the beloved — and most likely overrated — star football player Eric is chosen to play Alberto’s part. As time goes by, stuck in the middle of nowhere with the most popular boy at school, Zak quickly sees his opinion of Eric shift from sworn enemy to endearing new friend; and soon enough, his feelings for him threaten to grow into something far more dangerous.
