[ Previously Not Love A Business Contract] Juliet, a headstrong 19-year-old, wrestles with a devastating reality - her mother lies in a coma after a hit-and-run on Thanksgiving. As grief hangs heavy, another blow lands: a marriage contract. Juliet is to be wed to America's most eligible bachelor, Keith Carlton. Devastated by a recent heartbreak with her boyfriend, Lucas, Juliet scoffs at the idea of love, let alone a forced marriage. Keith, a self-made billionaire with a gentleman's heart, is determined to honor the contract, showering Juliet with romantic gestures straight out of a fairytale and chipping away at the walls she's built around her heart. Bound by an ironclad agreement, Juliet longs for freedom, and Keith harbors a dark past threatening their fragile bond. As they navigate their unusual situation, sparks fly. Yet, can a love built on obligation blossom into something real? Can they overcome their differences, confront their pasts, and learn to trust each other? Dancing with Time is a captivating tale of forced proximity, where love ignites in the most unconventional of places.

His faint laugh stopped me in my tracks, my body turning sightly to look at him again. "That was cute. Really, I loved it, but you know I can't just stay away." He said while using air quotations for the last part of his sentence. My narrowed eyes continued to shoot daggers at him, "and why is that, Grayson? Huh?" I asked in a mocking tone. He rubbed along his jaw while pulling in on his bottom lip, his head lightly shaking from side to side. "What?" I said louder, my patience long gone. "I live right next door," he deadpanned, "I'm not going anywhere. As far as I'm concerned we're gonna be seeing each other practically every day, so this whole thing about staying away just isn't going to work for you. I don't let things I love go so easily." A chill went down my spine as I watched him walk up the stairs of his porch, "sweet dreams, Cam." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eighteen year old, Cameron Woods, is ready to start her senior year alongside her friends and boyfriend, Damon Valero.

| WATTPAD INDIA AWARDS 2021 SHORTLIST | Like a moth to the flame, Amy finds herself drowning in Jake's chaos, and it doesn't even make sense how she's ready to do anything to see that sun-kissed smile on his face. She is his peace when he is everything that sets her heart and soul in a hurricane. And just like that, all her plans to have a peaceful college life go down the drain. The moment she looks into his black orbs, she finds herself losing in the hands of a guy her mom strictly forbade her to get involved with ever. Who knew four years of college life would become everything she should have never sought for, but also, something she always wanted to, with all her heart. Jake is stubborn, arrogant, and a lot more mysterious about himself than Amy can handle. He is also passionate, an artist with a paintbrush that can create masterpieces and depressed in ways no one bothers to know, except Amy. Amy is undeniably attracted to him. But Jake harbors enough regrets from the past to never seek the light Amy has to offer. Amy slowly manages to break through the walls of redemption Jake has created around himself. But she can never change the fact that our mistakes run deep than any other feeling. When shadows of past mistakes start drowning Jake into a dark pit of chaos, Amy might be his one chance to seek light, his silver lining, and love that can heal the ugliest of scars. But is he willing to heal? Or is it simply too late for him? Cover by @krissthetic
