*Regular Updates* Caera Berry grew up among the sweet scent of strawberry fields - a childhood touched by loss, hard work, and quiet resilience. Now a newly qualified clinical psychologist, Caera steps into the gleaming halls of Newlands Hospital, ready to build a new life far from the struggles of the past. She didn't expect to cross paths with Dr. Elias Wonderlands - the hospital's infamous, brooding professor with a stare as sharp as his reputation. Tall, dark-haired, and almost annoyingly stern, Elias rarely lets anyone get close. But Caera is different. Her soft voice, quick wit, and stubborn spirit unsettle him in ways he can't explain - and he finds himself worrying about her more than he should. She, in turn, can't quite understand why the hospital's most untouchable man seems determined to interfere in her life... or why her heart races whenever he's near. Between clashing wills, unexpected adventures, and plenty of sweet, awkward moments, Caera and Elias soon find themselves tangled in more than just hospital drama. Full of heart, humor, and slow-burn romance, Tangled in Strawberries is a story about unexpected love, finding laughter in unlikely places, and discovering that even the iciest hearts can warm.

"You're not here to fall in love." "Trust me, sir... I don't even know what that means." She was sold like a possession-traded away by the very people who were supposed to protect her. At just seventeen, she finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar mansion owned by a powerful man known for his silence, strict rules, and a heartbreak he never talks about. His only condition? Take care of his one-year-old daughter. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't enter his study. Never touch him. For her, following orders is nothing new. Obedience has kept her alive this long. But the baby's soft cries break something inside her, and her tender touch begins to warm a house that forgot what love felt like. He tells himself she's just a caretaker. Just a temporary solution. But night after night, she shatters rule after rule... And soon, his heart becomes the final one to break. 🎯 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞 Genre: Romance / Drama / Slow Burn / Hurt-Comfort Age rating: 16+ (emotional abuse themes, mature emotional content)

What happens when the boy she's falling for... is the idol she's been fangirling over? When 16-year-old Suzumi stumbles into Shibuya during a school exchange trip, she doesn't expect to meet a quiet, mysterious boy who feels strangely familiar-unknowingly, the voice behind the song that once lit up her world. What she doesn't realize is... she just became his whole universe. Two years later, back home in Canada, things take a turn when a new neighbor moves in-straight from Japan. He's soft-spoken, almost too perfect, and he looks exactly like Akari, her favorite member of the K-pop group STAR. Yellow is a slow-burn YA romance filled with mistaken identity, K-pop drama, stolen glances, and the kind of love that hits like a chorus you can't forget. Perfect for fans of heart-fluttering moments, chaotic friendships, and music that feels like home. 💛If you believe in fate, first loves, and music that heals the soul, this story's the one for you.💛

Kat is a fashion prodigy clawing her way through the final year at one of New York's most cutthroat design schools. Christian Dior internship, thesis, impossible standards. One distraction could ruin everything. Rafe doesn't do distractions. Especially not the quiet girl with hurricane eyes who shows up to his fight wearing red lipstick and danger. But when her sketchbook drags Kat into Rafe's world-a world of back-alley rings, whispered threats, and nights that bite back-she finds the inspiration she thought she'd lost. And once he touches her-really touches her-it's over. The fights are getting darker. The fashion house is getting crueler. And the rules are clear; No distractions. No attachments. No one ever warned her about obsession.
