"I ruined her." This realization brings Marcus Holden to his knees, but it might already be too late. Thirteen years ago, Marcus walked away from Celeste, convinced she betrayed him. She didn't. Celeste let him believe the lie, thinking she owed him. It destroyed her. Now, fate has put them in each other's crosshairs-and neither is willing to back off. Marcus is harder, sharper, and still holding on to old grudges. Celeste is determined to rebuild her life, tenaciously guarding her secrets. She could stay away. She should stay away. Still, Celeste is many things, but a coward she is NOT. So when Marcus issues a challenge, she accepts. A job offer: Succeed, and reclaim the life she lost. Fail, and lose everything again. Working together pushes them closer. Buried beneath years of anger, lies and silence... the spark between them ignites again. This time, the stakes are higher. Marcus's family is ready to tear them apart. A dangerous enemy is back-this time, out for blood. And the skeletons in Celeste's closet? They refuse to stay hidden. Every thread of deception unravels until the indebted CEO stands on the precipice of disaster: Save Celeste, repay his debt to her-and lose everything. Protect his empire... and lose Celeste-forever. The past is coming to collect what is owed. And this time, it might just claim...everything. THE MENDED HEARTS SERIES Book 1: The Unseen Bride (Keith & Ella) Book 2: The Indebted CEO (Marcus & Celeste) Each book is a complete standalone with guaranteed HEA.

🅿🆁🅾🅻🅾🅶🆄🅴 Sometimes love doesn't die. It just goes quiet buried under anger, pride, and the things left unsaid. He thought he'd won the argument the day said words no man should ever say. She didn't deserve his child. The silence that followed was heavier than hate. Years later, that silence still follows him. In every empty room, every smile that doesn't reach his eyes. And her,she learned to stand again. To breathe without his shadow, to rebuild the pieces he broke when he mistook love for ownership. But fate, cruel as ever, doesn't close doors neatly. Their paths cross again, tangled in the same city, the same memories, but different hearts. When the past still breathes beside him, wearing a familiar face. Not when truth has its own hunger, waiting to tear through the lies they both lived with. Now, he has to face the truth he ran from,redemption isn't about getting her back. It's about becoming the man she once believed he could be. And she must decide if forgiveness means loving him again... or finally letting go. 29/01~ Top 4 in India; 30/01~ Top 3 in india 31/01~ Top 4 in india 01st #divorce, 02nd #wattpad 12th #love, 19th #heartbreak 04th #angst, 03rd #heartbreak 01st #imissyou, 09th #women, 02nd #randomstories.... 3rd #heartbreak, 1st #imissyou, 9th #women, 2nd #randomstories....

Allison Holloway promised herself she'd keep her head down during her first semester at Ridgefield College. Between choir rehearsals, late-night study sessions, and holding tight to her childhood friends back home in Pinehill, romance is the last thing on her mind. Enter Gavin Landry-star basketball player, campus heartthrob, and a friend of a friend's brother. He's charming, persistent, and way too confident for his own good. From the moment they meet, Gavin makes it his mission to break through Allison's walls. But what starts as relentless flirting quickly turns into something much more dangerous: a bet. Allison swore she'd never fall for a guy like him, and Gavin swore it was only about winning. But when real feelings get tangled in the lies, hearts shatter. Now, with Allison pulling away and his team on the line, Gavin is left with only one option: prove to her that what they had was more than a game. From late-night confessions to hometown holiday lights, he'll risk everything to win back the one girl he never expected to love. Because sometimes love isn't about the bet-it's about who's willing to fight for it.

Alessia had rules. She didn't do drama, didn't take nonsense from any man. Until him. For Cassian, she broke every one. A cliché, impossible mother in law? She handled it. Missed dinners because of work? She served herself double and waited anyway. Too tired to spend time together? She embraced the quiet hours alone. She forgot her limits, abandoned her rules. All for him. Until her. The one rule she couldn't break, the limit she couldn't cross. She saw him with her. Broken, she left and whispered a wish she never thought would come true: that she had never met him. The wish was granted. Alessia woke up and didn't remember him. But now Cassian is the one waiting. Running against time to be near her. Chasing every moment, following every rule, just so she might remember him again. And if she can't... Can he remember it all for both of them? © IcecreamSundae5.

Aarav Oberoi never made mistakes. At least, that's what he told himself. The sleek glass walls of Oberoi Enterprises gleamed under the harsh office lights, but inside the penthouse suite, the air felt thick - with tension, suspicion, and something darker. A confidential project, years in the making, had just been compromised. Millions lost. Trust shattered. And all fingers pointed to one person. Ruhi Sharma. His assistant. The one who had been with him through late nights and endless board meetings. The one he never thought could betray him. But the files had leaked. And in Aarav's eyes, betrayal was betrayal - no matter who wore the mask. He didn't pause to ask questions. He didn't look for proof. Because in the ruthless game of business, weakness was a luxury he couldn't afford. His decision was swift, brutal. He ruined her. Her career. Her reputation. Her future. Now, as the city lights flickered below his office window, Aarav felt a strange weight - not of triumph, but of something far heavier. Regret. Because the real traitor was still out there. And the woman he destroyed was innocent.

Zach Westbrook was my best friend-and the boy I'd secretly loved since forever. Until he said the one thing I was never supposed to hear. So I did what any heartbroken, humiliated girl would do. I ghosted him. Ditched the university we both planned to attend. And left without looking back. Our friendship ended the day I left town. Or so I thought. Three years later, I'm back. Not because I want to be, but because family comes first-and unfortunately, that means transferring to Ridgewater University. The same school Zach owns like a second skin. Still hot. Still cocky. Still the campus golden boy with a hockey stick. And still the last person I want to deal with. But I'm not the shy, awkward girl he used to know. I've changed. I've moved on. I'm no longer the girl who used to follow him around like a lost puppy. This time, I'm not the one getting benched.
