Synopsis: Jennie believes she is loved, carefully, beautifully, and under watchful hands. Her life beside the perfect Kim Jongin looks enviable from the outside, even as it quietly asks her to become smaller. When an unexpected marriage ties her to someone who doesn't demand, correct, or cage her, Jennie begins to feel something unfamiliar: choice. What starts as a polished romance unravels into a story of denial, obsession, and the dangerous pull between control and freedom-where love can feel intoxicating, peaceful and entirely free.

7 years into marriage, Jennie and Lisa have built the kind of life they once only joked about. Their business is thriving, their names are known, and their home is full of noise and laughter thanks to their two daughters - Hana (7, witty and quick to talk back) and Sora (6, sweet but sneakily mischievous). Life seems perfect until a surprise from Jennie's past arrives: her parents, who were absent for most of her life, suddenly want to reconnect now that she's successful and in the spotlight. Torn between resentment and curiosity, Jennie struggles with what role they should - or shouldn't - play in her life, her marriage, and especially in her children's. But even with old wounds reopening, Jennie and Lisa's love, humor, and family chaos prove stronger than anything. With silly fights, heartfelt moments, and two little girls stealing the spotlight, To Have and To Hold shows that happily-ever-after isn't perfect - but it's perfectly theirs.

[GP] Jennie Ruby Jane. People mistook her beauty for innocence, but her allure was never pure. It was deliberate, calculated, and devastatingly effective. Every line of her body carried an unspoken promise, and every glance was a test of willpower. A law student in her final year, she knew the power of words and wielded them like a blade-sharp, persuasive, lethal when she chose. Behind her red-painted lips and smoldering eyes was a mind sharper than any cross-examination. Lisa Manoban. A surgeon with ice-untouchable, unreadable. Her hands were steady, her heart carefully stitched shut after a painful past. Her beauty was clinical, almost cruel in its precision, a face carved in marble with eyes that gave nothing back. She spoke in measured tones, as if every word cost more than it was worth, and silence was her favorite weapon. While others sought warmth, Lisa offered only cold truth, her gaze dissecting people the way her scalpel did flesh. Together, they make the perfect storm- temptation and control, fire and ice, heat and emptiness. Can they turn the storm into a perfect weather? Or will the storm keeps swirling around?

What if loving someone means losing yourself?

Jennie never thought that something as simple as a cup of coffee and a red rose from an attractive stranger is all she needs to get her life back together. ***** Where Jennie Kim has to face the consequences of her careless decisions after her husband gets thrown in prison and she is made to attend countless therapy sessions for her worsening mental health. She's about to give everything up, until she meets with a pearly white smile and bright brown eyes that finally show her the light at the end of the tunnel and overturn her perception of everything she has known about love. ❝They say flowers don't die where love is the strongest...❞ [Original Jenlisa Fanfiction Book] TW/ mentions of domestic abuse; anxiety disorder Read at your own risk! ✃- - - - - - - - - - - Published: Feb 7th 2022 Finished: Feb 23rd 2022 Don't forget to vote and comment.

She's a queen bee, surrounded by admirers, yet she unexpectedly falls for the one she had once pushed away. The type of person who never looks back at exes and to someone who she throw before but somehow, she fell deeper than before to someone she rejected.The moment of truth hit when she stopped sending flowers and cards-those little gestures that once meant everything.

Jennie Kim comes from a famous, powerful, and well-known family in South Korea. On the other hand, Lalisa Manoban-an orphan who grew up alone and now lives independently in a small apartment. Lisa and Jennie both meet in college, where Jennie bullies Lisa mercilessly in public... but behind closed doors, there's something else-she's possessive, obsessive, and dangerously attached. After graduation, Jennie suddenly ends things and flies to another country to marry a man and build a picture-perfect family, leaving Lisa broken and trying to move on. Nine years later, fate plays its cruel trick-Lisa and Jennie meet again at an elementary school because of something little Jennie did to Lisa's best friend's daughter.

Jennie Kim has everything under control-on paper, at least. She's a young professor, top of her field, and the poster child for grace under pressure. But when she shows up-familiar eyes, effortless charm, and a smile Jennie knows far too well-order turns to chaos in the most inconvenient way. Their connection runs deeper than anyone suspects, but in a world where appearances are everything, some truths have to stay between the lines. After all, not every chapter is meant for public reading.

[GP] Two Hearts. One Past. A Love That Refuses to Fade. Once, Lisa and Jennie had it all, love, commitment, and a future built on dreams. But when Lisa became consumed by ambition, chasing status and family expectations, their world began to fracture. Jennie, left to carry the emotional weight of their marriage, slowly lost faith in the woman she once adored. Now, years later, Lisa has given up everything to reclaim what was lost, only to find Jennie has already moved on, engaged to someone who gives her the peace she longed for. When fate brings them face to face once more, old emotions resurface. Regret. Longing. Hope. Can love truly be revived after so much damage? Or is letting go the only way to move forward?

Three hearts. Three stories. One thread of love stretched too far between them. Jennie, the woman who once held Lisa's heart in both hands - and unintentionally broke it by not knowing how to hold it right. A love that bloomed too fast, too fierce, and faltered when comfort became complacency. She never stopped loving Lisa, but love left unattended is love lost all the same. Chloe, the woman who never planned to fall - but did so gently, quietly, completely. She never asked for anything in return, only stayed long enough to help Lisa remember how to breathe again. She was the calm after the storm... but even the calm knows when to step away from a battlefield never meant for her. And Lisa - the heart caught in between. The one who loved deeply and lost loudly. Who bled silently through heartbreak and exile, only to rebuild herself in the solitude of discipline and distance. She left to forget, only to carry the weight of them both. Now she returns - not as the girl she was, but as a woman uncertain of where she belongs. In Another Time, Maybe isn't a story of choosing who to love. It's a story of choosing when. Of loving two people in different ways. Of learning that timing is just as cruel as it is kind. That sometimes the right person is found in the wrong season - and that no matter how tightly you hold on, you cannot make the universe speed up, slow down, or turn back. Jennie hopes Lisa hasn't stopped loving her. Chloe hopes Lisa learned to love herself. And Lisa... she isn't sure what she hopes for anymore. But when paths cross again - as they always seem to - maybe hope is enough to begin. In another time, maybe... they all would've gotten it right.
