[MATURE CONTENT.] In which two people meet on a flight, only to find out he's married and she's his soon to be nanny. What happens when she finds that the couples marriage is hanging on by a thread?

berlin was supposed to be temporary. a place for Harry Styles to disappear, write, and leave without looking back. and her? just someone he met along the way. but temporary turns into routine, and routine turns into something neither of them meant to feel. somewhere between late nights, unfinished songs, and almosts- She stopped being just another part of the city.

Ella didn't plan on meeting Harry. She definitely didn't plan on going home with him. He was rich, infuriating, emotionally unavailable, and exactly the kind of man she knew better than to want. One bad decision turned into several, and no matter how many times she told herself to walk away, she kept finding her way back. Brooklyn is a story about desire, mistakes, and the kind of connection that feels wrong but impossible to ignore.

Harry was sent to take her. He didn't know why. He didn't ask questions. It was just a job. Alice doesn't know why it was her. She doesn't know who would want her found, or why Harry was the one who showed up that night. All she knows is that nothing about him feels the way it should. He isn't cruel. He isn't careless. And he was never supposed to matter. But the longer she stays, the more she realizes Harry is hiding secrets he doesn't even understand himself. Because someone wanted her. Someone who knew exactly where to find her. Someone connected to a past she tried to forget. And the most terrifying truth isn't that Harry took her. It's that, somehow, he became the safest place she's ever been.

hal·low verb past participle: hallowed - honor as holy. Vivienne Romano bakes cupcakes, believes in kindness, and still says "please" and "thank you" to strangers. Harry Styles? He bleeds violence. A fighter with a past wrapped in secrets, bruises, and misery. Their worlds were never meant to collide. But they did-late one night, in the shadows of her bakery, with blood on his hands and fear in her eyes. Now he can't stay away. She's light and sugar and everything good in this world... and he's the sinner who can't stop coming back. She's the softest thing he's ever seen. And the only thing that makes him feel anything close to holy. Because if there's one thing Harry knows for sure- a man like him was never meant to touch a girl like her. As the lines between fear and fascination blur, Vivienne is dragged deeper into a world of secrets, violence, and obsession. Because Harry isn't just dangerous-he's marked. And now, so is she. What do you do when the one person who terrifies you... might be the only one who can protect you?
