"Why do you want me?" "You want to know why I want you?" He exhales, like he's been holding this in for weeks. "I want you because I don't date for fun. I don't do temporary. I want you because when I think about marriage, your face is the only one there. I want you because if I ever have kids, I want them to have you as their mother. I want you because you're the love of my life." A beat. "And I want you because everything in me settles when you're with me."

Nia Hart is used to living quietly, slipping in and out of rooms without being noticed, keeping her world small, controlled and safe. Aidan Collins is the opposite, loud laughter, bright energy, the kind of man who fills every space he walks into. She's an introvert with a laser‑focused career. He's an extrovert with a reputation that follows him everywhere. In private, they're soft. In public, they're a headline. He has golden‑boy charm and easy laughter. She has quiet ambition and careful boundaries. He pulls people in. She keeps them at arm's length. And when the world discovers them, the contrast becomes impossible to ignore: he shines in the spotlight, she hides from it. To stay together, they'll have to learn how to meet in the middle, and build a love that survives both the noise and the silence.

When a bubbly track star meets a grumpy Dutch baller... A college sports romance between two polar opposites.

Yasir Love's hopeless romantic tendencies have seemed to fallen for a girl in his lecture. Determined to win her heart, he tries every way he knows to get her to notice him, never realising just how hard it would be for her to truly see him as a person. Though, a question lingers.

Quiet girls don't get the basketball star. At least that's what she's convinced herself. Everyone at Duke knows her - the volleyball sophomore with nice curls, a perfect Instagram, and millions of followers who somehow still feel invisible. Pretty, polished, impossible to truly know. Then there's Cade Mercer. Duke basketball royalty. Future NBA star. Campus obsession. The kind of guy girls fall for instantly. And somehow? He keeps choosing her. Not the loud girls. Not the girls who seem perfectly confident. Her - the quiet girl who overthinks everything and refuses to believe a guy like him could actually mean it.

He entered her life, not invasively but actually at just the right time. There was no denying that they were made for one another. He's in her life; she's in his. He's part of her group, and she's part of his. He's real dark, but she's his missing light. He's in her mind, and she's in his.

"You always got everybody else to worry about." Saint pulled her a little closer. "Yeah." His eyes stayed on hers.

The longer she stays, the deeper Magnolia Avenue starts feeling less like a street and more like home.

Artist stared at the girl, a little longer than he meant too before she noticed. "You always looking at me. You don't ever wanna do nothing else?" She asked, furrowing her eyebrows at him. He smiled at her, shaking his head no. He tightly pulled her into his grip. "Since I got you, I can't ever let you go." ⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹ She works two lives at once, serving tables by day and on the pole by evening while quietly building a future she refuses to let go of. Every shift brings her closer to her dream of owning her own restaurant, but also keeps her grounded in survival. He is a rising rapper with a presence too loud to ignore, constantly appearing in her orbit with a curiosity he cannot hide. In a city built on luxury, ambition, and unspoken truth, their paths collide in ways neither of them planned. What starts as observation turns into connection, and connection turns into something dangerously impossible to walk away from.
