What happens when your friend tells your crush that you like him... and his answer isn't what you hoped for? Shruti never planned to confess her feelings to Ayush. She never even got the chance. One day, one of her friends decided to tell him the truth- "My friend likes you." And Ayush's answer was simple. No. What seemed like a small moment slowly turned into a story of awkwardness, friendship, hidden feelings, and the kind of love that doesn't always get a happy ending. Because sometimes, the hardest part isn't falling for someone... it's realizing they were never falling for you. 🥀

La Isla de Santa Margarita is a tropical paradise a few hours north of Manila. It boasts powdery white sand beaches, romantic cliffs, virgin rainforests, and misty mountains. Long popular with the jet set crowd, it remains a top travel destination known for its exclusive resorts and hopping nightlife. It has been the setting for many a holiday fling, but for those who stayed, it was where they found lasting love. Book One: Beth and Gage's Story Gage - He escaped to the other side of the world to flee his old life, where the dust from the disaster of his failed engagement had yet to settle. He wanted to nurse his badly beaten heart to health before he considered dating again, but life throws a wrench into this entirely reasonable plan. Beth - When the people dearest to her sided with the enemy, her heart was shattered, her trust was destroyed, and her confidence was badly crippled. She was just starting to feel normal again after indulging her hermitic tendencies for years. She aimed to proceed with tiny, cautious steps, but life suddenly pushes her to take a giant flying leap. Both nursing hearts wounded by betrayal, Beth and Gage explore the strong connection that irresistibly draws them to each other. Life dares them to love and trust yet again, but is it just setting them up for far more painful lessons? *** This was my first novel ever. I self-published it on Kindle ten years ago under a different pseudonym. Reading it now makes me cringe. I hope to get some feedback, improve it, and then republish it. Hope y'all can help me with that. :)

🏆 2nd place in the best protagonist category at the Lavender Jade Mini awards.(My very first contest, but more awards will be added if I rack up anymore) Synopsis. Sixteen-year-old Rem Kotsuki only wants one thing: to spend the rest of his high school life in peace. No clubs. No drama. No unnecessary human interaction. Just a quiet desk by the window, a reliable coffee vending machine, and the kind of life that requires absolutely zero effort to maintain. It lasts approximately three days. Enrolling at Seiren High was supposed to be the easy part. Instead: his childhood friend Tamaki is now the school's untouchable idol. His long-lost sister resurfaces with a bright smile and an agenda he can't quite read. His homeroom teacher has decided he's an experiment worth running. And somehow, despite his best efforts, he has acquired a friend. --- "Isn't it weird how you always try to avoid socialising?" "Not at all. It is precisely because I'm a background character that I must avoid such troublesome scenarios." "Huh? That just makes it ten times worse, doesn't it?" --- Hidden beneath Rem's lazy smile and indifference is a boy running from his own talent, his past, and the quiet conviction that the people around him are better off without him in the spotlight. Seiren High disagrees. Forced into the role of class representative beside the girl he'd chosen to watch from a distance, handed a Spring Festival to organize from scratch, and surrounded by people who are entirely too perceptive for their own good, Rem finds himself doing the one thing he swore to avoid: Getting involved.
