In a world built on taste and judgment, they discover the hardest recipe to follow has no rules. And sometimes...the perfect "𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐟'𝐬 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬" isn't just about the food. ━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━

Sim Jake is the coach's star player-disciplined on the ice, reckless when it comes to rules. Jeon Sooyi is supposed to stay off-limits, the one name he's not meant to say too loudly around her father. But late-night glances, stolen conversations, and a secret neither of them knows how to stop turns into something that could cost him everything. Because in a world built on rules, they're the only mistake neither of them can fix.

One reckless night throws them into the same orbit - gasoline and perfume, leather jackets and designer heels. Riki's everything Jennie should stay away from. Jennie is everything Riki doesn't have time for. They clash like metal on metal - sharp words, heated stares, tension thick enough to choke on. But danger has a way of feeling addictive. The more Jennie tries to keep her distance, the deeper Jennie gets pulled into Riki's world of illegal races and midnight escapes. And the more he tells himself she's just a distraction, the harder it becomes to let her go. Jennie's his worst decision. Riki's her biggest risk. And some addictions? They don't just ruin you - they consume you.

Lee Yoona & Nishimura Riki used to date back when they were teenagers, now there 20 & 21 in college haven't spoken since the break up happened they have been in no contact have each other blocked on everything , will they find their way back ?

𝐒𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐄𝐄 ⋆ ˚｡⋆౨ৎ˚(🐆) New city. New chapter. Same fire. Aliyah and Riki did the impossible: they grew up, stayed in love, and built a family that feels like magic. With a baby lighting up their days and New York as their next big leap, it should've been happily ever after. But you don't outrun your past. Not in this city. Not when bloodlines echo through generations and unfinished stories find a way to write themselves in the margins of your peace. Between college lectures, sleepless baby nights, and the pressure of Riki's booming pro career, life is a balancing act-and they've mastered the high wire. Until one chance encounter flips the script. Suddenly, secrets Riki buried deep claw their way back to the surface, threatening the foundation they fought so hard to protect. Love got them this far. But can it survive what's been waiting in the shadows? Raw, emotional, and achingly intimate, Heart Vows is a story about breaking generational cycles, fighting for your family, and the kind of vows that don't happen at the altar-but in the quiet, everyday choices that prove love is not just a feeling. It's a legacy. The final chapter in the Aliyah and Riki saga will leave your heart pounding, your soul aching, and your fingers itching to turn the page. --- THE UNEXPECTED SERIES #3| NISHIMURA RIKI # lovers , parents, university , college au. / good girl x bad boy , slice of life © all credits to pjmshny INCOMPLETE // 20/07/25
