He's a duke. She's a servant. They've been friends since childhood, but their hearts have always defied the rules. When Anastasia Michaels leaves Yorkshire with a secret that could change everything, Henry Sutton believes he's lost her forever. Years later, she returns-older, bolder, and hiding a truth that could shatter them both. Forbidden love. Passion that cannot be denied. And a past that refuses to stay buried. Can they fight for the love they were never allowed to have? ***Contains mature themes and explicit scenes. Please enjoy responsibly and do not replicate this independent work.***

Some loves begin before you know what love is. Some loves survive things that should have broken them. When Jade Thompson meets Devon Michaels in seventh grade, it's just a moment-one glance across a classroom, one heartbeat loud enough to drown out the world. She doesn't know yet that this boy with quiet eyes and a guarded heart will become a constant in her life, even when nothing else feels certain. Devon is new to this part of the city, carrying grief he doesn't have the words for and a growing resentment for a school that feels more like a reminder of everything he's already lost. He's never known his biological father. He's lost the man who raised him. And soon, he will lose even more-losses that will reshape him, fracture him, and make staying feel harder than leaving. Jade is learning how to live inside her own mind, navigating anxiety, depression, and the ache of loving someone who doesn't always know how to remain present. She feels deeply, waits patiently, and slowly learns the difference between holding on and losing herself. Their story unfolds over years-marked by closeness and distance, disappearance and return, heartbreak and healing. Devon leaves. He comes back. Jade grows. They both change. But the connection between them refuses to fade. Inspired by real events, 143: A True Love Story is an emotional romance about first love, grief, mental health, and the kind of bond that matures with time. Because some love stories aren't measured by how they begin or even how they hurt- but by the quiet ways we say I love you. One. Four. Three. ***Contains mature themes and scenes.

'Watching your brother go down for rape sounds like a difficult task, right? Try being the girl in the witness stand, the victim.'

This is not a story about what happens. It's about what almost does. At an Ivy League medical school, Isabelle Laurent is known as the Ice Queen-brilliant, distant, untouchable. No one gets close. No one stays. Alexander Whitmore was never supposed to be different. Charming, privileged, and infamous for never staying longer than a few weeks, he understands desire. What he doesn't understand, until Isabelle, is restraint. She believes he doesn't want her. He knows wanting her openly would destroy everything. So they choose the most dangerous thing instead: friendship. "The most dangerous thing about Alexander Whitmore was not his reputation, nor his charm, nor the power he would one day inherit. It was the fact that he never asked for anything from me, and somehow, without realizing it, I had begun to give him everything that mattered." Slow burn • Dual POV • Consent • Emotional intimacy
