Flowing silk dresses. Structured suits. Empty, forced vows. Soft, sweet nothings. Whispered caresses. Bittersweet kisses. Blue, blue eyes. This is not a love story. This is ruination. 🥀 Rosaline Beaumont. A name that once graced every tabloid, a face that used to be plastered all over social media. A girl that had all but disappeared.

Standing at a wedding altar not of her choice, Rose was on the precipice of vowing to spend the rest of her life with a man she hardly knew. A deadly gamble. A hopeful new start. But could something new truly blossom, when the clutches of the past were dug so deep? Could she ever truly move on, when she couldn't close her eyes without dreaming of him? And could a marriage really last, when her heart would forever beat for another? 🥀 Completed on July 5, 2025.

If skaters are perfect, they become world champions. But if they fall, if they fail a triple toe loop or a lutz, the dejection is theirs alone. There is no sport like it, there is no story like theirs. To Samuel Jeon, skating was all that mattered. He didn't need other people; all he needed was a sturdy pair of boots with blades and fresh ice beneath him. After being out of the game for two months due to an injury, Samuel was ready to return to the competitive sports scene in a big way. There was just one little problem: Justin Wong; owner of a gorgeous pair of dark doe eyes and cheeky smiles that managed to thaw even the most stubborn parts of Samuel.
