For Armani, he shows up. Protects. Stays beside her. Loves her in ways he never learned how to say out loud. Their bond has always been safe. Familiar. Untouchable. Until things got complicated and someone fell first, and pretty damn hard. ----- "Mani you're not alone , you have me don't you? You will always have me" "I know I'm not alone Tj , I just feel lonely" "Then I'll be lonely with you" ...

Walker Scobell is used to people knowing who he is before they meet him. Annie doesn't. What starts as a strange coincidence quickly turns into something neither of them expected: shared hotel hallways, sleepless conversations, quiet moments hidden between interviews and airports - and a connection that feels far too real for something that was only supposed to last a week. But real life doesn't pause for good timing. When the press tour ends, Annie returns to New York and Walker to the world waiting for him on the other side of the cameras. Distance becomes unavoidable. So does the question neither of them knows how to answer: What happens when someone becomes important to you too quickly? Told through dual POVs, this is a slow-burn story about fame, distance, vulnerability, and the terrifying possibility of meeting the right person before you know what to do with them. Strangers to lovers • celebrity romance • mutual yearning • long distance • emotional slow burn • right person, wrong timing • soft angst • found family Highest rankings: 1#premiere 24.02.2026 1#meet-cute 24.02.2026 2#normalgirl 24.02.2026 1#premiere 10.03.2026 1#leahsavajeffries 06.04.2026 1#premiere 01.05.2026

This was my first book as I started and ended this book sometime in 2023-24. I edited a little, but not much so read at your own risk... Brianna takes Aiden hoodie off before going back to kissing him as he slides his hands under her tank top, cupping her breast making her kiss him harder. She then abruptly stops making Aiden snap his eyes open. "What?" He ask her as she cups his face looking him directly in his eyes. "I love you Aiden. Like seriously I really do." She says making him chuckle at how random she said it but when he looked back at her she seemed so very serious. "Come on Brianna, you know I'll love you always and forever," he said while kissing all over her face which made her laugh. "You're so corny." She playfully pushes his face away from hers making him laugh. "I'm serious. Like forever and ever and ever-" but she cuts him off as she rolls her eyes and kisses him again.
