Vrai was stunned. Bea continued. "You keep referring to us as "we" and you don't seem to know you're doing it. I don't get you, Vrai." "It won't work." "So you've thought about it." Bea stated. "Bea-" "You have." **** Vrai and Bea have both lived among life's thorns- complicated families, messy feelings, and connections that never quite lasted. In Hamilton, surrounded by friends who feel like home, something begins to bloom between them- slow, magnetic, and impossible to ignore. Roses aren't simple. Love rarely is. A slow-burn WLW romance about friendship, found family, and the moments that make your heart skip. Story by Viv B. Ayin 🖤 🌹 Thank you for reading.

Eden Woods has spent his entire life searching for something. He spends his days working at a cafe in France, taking photos to pass the time, then going out on weekends, losing himself in the nights. Only, despite all the soul searching, he can never quite shake the feeling that he's missing something. Then, after a drunken, almost definitely accidental tattoo, Eden meets Avery. The one who did it. He's a tempest. Blustering and bold. Fiery and flirtatious. Avery Romano is a mystery in a bottle, and all Eden wants is to figure him out. Slowly, Eden starts to think that maybe Avery is exactly what he's been searching for. When Avery begins to frequent Eden's cafe, the two begin to forge a bond, and slowly but surely, their paths begin to grow together like intertwining vines climbing up the same wall. For a while, life goes on. Then obviously, things get complicated.
