​"A single smile cost me my heart,a second smile gave me back my own. He once told me I was beautiful when my laugh was real-not forced, not tensed, just a pure, belly-aching joy. ​But then the tide turned. Now, he says my voice irks him and my crooked teeth annoy him. He calls me a vampire, claiming my pale skin and unaligned smile do nothing but drain the joy from the room. It's funny-he thinks I'm the one sucking the life out of him, when he's the one who took the bite out of me.". 🖇️📍All copyright reserves to @Adhuni 2026

"You didn't notice me back then. And now? Now that I've learned to stop waiting for you... suddenly you see me." Book 1 Serena Hart spent years being invisible to Lucas Thorne-her brother's best friend and the man she once loved in silence. Now, working under him on a high-stakes trip to London, she's no longer the quiet girl he overlooked. She's grown, guarded, and done waiting. Lucas built an empire on control, but nothing prepares him for the woman Serena's become-or the guilt of realizing everything he failed to see and say. As sparks reignite and old memories surface, their connection grows into something neither can ignore. Sometimes the hardest thing to face is the person you never meant to hurt. And even after love finally finds its way in... some heartbreaks are still waiting to be survived. ‼️PSA- Before reading, please read all tropes! This is an age gap romance and starts as a childhood unrequited crush. If you do not like age gap romance or any of the other tropes don't read it‼️ 🎧Far away -Nickleback🎧

They say a woman like me shouldn't love a man like him. I'm too loud. Too volatile. Too willing to burn everything down just to make a point. But Matthias Moretti didn't pick me for my sweetness. He picked me because I'm the only woman in this cursed city who can take his violence, match his obsession, and ride him like owning him is a birthright. He was supposed to be a holiday sin I'd laugh about later, a sweat-soaked distraction I used to bury my past. Then one savage little truth blew the floor out from under me and everything we built. Now he's tearing apart his own empire trying to drag me home, razing anything that stands between us. He shouldn't worry. I'm not hiding. I'm waiting.

The Girl Who Never Forgets by Divya S After ten years away, Anna returns to her childhood home with a quiet hope - to make peace, to remember warmth, to find closure before her time runs out. But the house she once loved has learned to live without her. Her mother looks through her as if she were a ghost. Her brother avoids her eyes. And the boy she once loved has already built a life that no longer includes her. They say she ruined everything. They say she lied. They never asked what really happened the night she was forced into the dark. As Anna spends her final days inside a home that no longer claims her, she learns that healing does not always come from forgiveness - sometimes it comes from letting go. And when the truth finally returns to the people who abandoned her, they will learn that remembering can be its own punishment.
