Celestine always knew something about her life was not ordinary. She knew she didn't fit in the world she grew up in, but she never had anything to prove that she was an anomaly. Then the proof she so long wanted arrived in front of her but at a cost. She finds out that she was indeed from another world. A world her mother told her nothing about, a world that she would have never thought to be real if she hadn't opened the portal. As she navigates this strange world and finds out dangerous people are targeting her, she ends up in a very complicated situation. Having to marry The Prince of the land was the last thing on her mind. Now she has to find her father, who might still be alive, search for her mother's killer and also navigate life as the bride of the future king, but falling in love was at the very bottom of her list. With time running out and the dark forces getting closer to their goal, Celestine must choose to either accept love and her true powers or watch it all slip from her fingers.

When her therapy app accidentally sends Riley's private confessions to a random British expat - and his to her - what began as a glitch quickly evolves into the kind of intimacy that can only exist between strangers. A slow-burn contemporary romance. * * * When a company health initiative forces Riley Markle to download a trendy mental health app, she fills out the onboarding survey without much thought, expecting to get paired with a virtual gym buddy who'll send thumbs-up emojis twice a week. Instead, she gets paired with Joe, a lonely British expat whose wellness concern of Compulsive Behaviors is flagged by the AI system as a perfect match for Riley. Riley resolves to complete her month of check-ins and be done with it - until a glitch in the app sends both her and Joe's embarrassing therapy videos to each other instead of their therapist. Soon, Riley and Joe are talking late into the night, exchanging thirst-trap videos of their weekend routines by day, and thinking about each other constantly. Both are smitten, both are broken, and neither of them knows how to do this without destroying each other. The plan: Limit all communication to the app until after Day 30, then see where things go. But plans change. * * * 🏆 High Rankings: #1 in LITERARY #1 in QUICKREAD #1 in NEWENGLAND #1 in SHORTCHAPTERS (out of 38,000 stories) #3 in EPISTOLARY #87 in ROMCOM (out of 35,000 stories) #147 in ROMANTIC (out of 86,000 stories) Updated November 2025
