Ten years ago, Zoey left her childhood town to forget her past and make something of herself. Now, life has beaten her down and an opportunity to be back in Roses seems like a good fresh start.
What she doesn't know is that the past that has plague...
Hello my readers, I never thought I would add a chapter like this but I'm so SO ecstatic to share that Roses has won-
First place in the Shattered Quill (Best Heartbreak Scene) category in the Quilling It Awards (2025) for Chapters 36 and 37 (if you want to clear your sinuses and eyes, here's your cue to scroll back and read those chapters ;-))
Anyways, check out this beautiful badge I received made by the talented host of this award contest katrina12234

Isn't she beautiful?✨
Anyways, that's all for now. I will update this chapter if I win anything else in the future (fingers crossed!)
P.S. the cover has been updated by the amazing TaeTaeGinger from the PaperCraneCo community a few days ago. And I'm still not over how pretty she looks!! ❤ What do you guys think? I think the bold colors and graphics depict Adam and Zoey's turbulent love story much better.
Edit #1 I'm back with another win, and that too so soon! I can't believe it either. Yay me, I guess? 😅
Anyways, we've won the Sectumsempra's Mark (Best Heartbreak Scene) category in the Hogwarts Scholar Awards (2025) hosted by the awesome community The_Celestial_Oasis-
It's unbelievable that my first two awards won here are both for the same category. Guess I do have a penchant for writing sad scenes and in case Adam and Zoey's painful breakup is getting murky in your memory, you should totally scroll back to read Chapters 36 and 37!! Don't forget the tissues 🤧
Enough said. Check out these beauties I've been sent-
