Before everything fell apart, there was Irina Ivanova and Isabelle Rossi. ||1989. Ravenswood.|| Irina arrives in town during the middle of autumn with her parents and a suitcase full of things that still don't feel like home. She's quiet, keeps to herself, and already knows what it's like to grow up feeling invisible. Then Isabelle Rossi notices her. Everybody knows Isabelle. The girl with the loud laugh, the pretty smile, the music always playing somewhere around her. The type of person who makes a place feel smaller the second she walks into it. Irina doesn't expect someone like Isabelle to look at her twice. But she does. And somehow, the two of them become inseparable. Late-night drives. Rooftops. Cigarettes passed between freezing hands. Teenage summers that feel like they'll last forever until suddenly they don't. Above Zero is a story about first love, growing up, and the people who leave fingerprints all over your life without even realizing it. Some relationships end. Others find their way back into the world in different forms. 𝗣𝗦: 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲. 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲, 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗢𝗻𝗲.

When aspiring writer Marcie is hired as the personal assistant to her all-time favorite author, Rosalind Lindbergh, she expects to be learning the ins and outs of the industry - not fending off red-hot feelings that aren't exactly "workplace appropriate." Season 1 of Romancing The Writer *** Willing to do anything to prove she has it together, unemployed writer/perpetual screw-up Marcella Harper somehow manages to land her second-place dream job: personal assistant to her personal hero, best-selling author Rosalind Lindbergh. Brutally dumped less than 24 hours after her first day, Marcie discovers that there may be no better distraction than her new job ... and new boss. After all, Marcie has had a crush on über-famous, ultra-hot Roz since high school. And - although she promised Marcie their relationship was strictly professional - Roz might just be returning her awkward, bumbling advances. When lines begin to blur and career prospects end up on the line, Marcie is sure of one thing: either she gives up on her dreams, or her dream woman. "You know, they have tutorials online for this kind of thing," I tell her. "You know, I hired a personal assistant for this kind of thing," she retorts. And then, we both stand there, awkwardly close. We watch the coffee sputter, then begin to pour. Neither of us utters a word. And, when it's done pouring, neither of us reach for it. "Are you ... not gonna take your coffee?" I finally ask. It's quiet. Tentative. "Oh. Right."

There was never anything remarkable about these days. Most of it disappears before we notice. A conversation on the bus. The light on a winter morning. The stranger who sat across from you for twenty minutes before stepping off at the next stop. They survive only as long as memory allows, and memory is rarely generous. These pages are made from those passing things. Not because they were extraordinary, but because they were ours. If, for a little while, they become yours as well, then perhaps they haven't disappeared entirely.

Morphea's story

When a scandal forces hockey star Amelia Bennett into a fake relationship with guarded photographer Harper Lane, neither expects the headlines, or the feelings, that follow. What starts as a PR stunt begins to spark into something real, threatening to expose more than just their hearts. *** She's the world's best hockey player. She's a heartbroken photographer with nowhere else to go. And they were never supposed to fall in love. At 24, Amelia Bennett is the most talented hockey player on the planet-chaotic, impulsive, and the last Bennett standing without a ring on her finger. After a very public scandal threatens her sponsorships and reputation, the team's PR crisis plan is simple: clean up her image fast. Step one? A fake relationship. Something that should be easy, right? Harper Lane has no interest in fame, or falling for another golden boy-or girl-with a spotlight stitched into their skin. After catching her long-term boyfriend cheating, she's sworn off chaos and charm. But when her best friend Audrey begs her to stay with Millie temporarily, Harper finds herself in the middle of a media storm-and somehow agreeing to pretend to be Millie Bennett's girlfriend. It's only for the cameras. Just long enough to fix Millie's image. Just enough to keep Harper's ex boyfriend off her back. But fake smiles turn into real moments. Cold shoulders warm under shared blankets. And the girl Harper was warned about-the reckless, beautiful mess, is nothing like the one who makes her tea when she's anxious and kisses her like she means it. In a house built on secrets, one accidental love story is about to make
