Childhoodcrush Stories

I never really hated Timothée. Okay, maybe I did. We had been neighbors since we were six. Our parents were best friends, we grew up together, and we even had matching nicknames from our childhood obsession with Mario. He was Mario. I was Mrs. Peach. But that didn't mean we liked each other. Especially not when my childhood crush, Mason Thames, was also our neighbor-and Timothée's best friend. Then, ten years ago, both boys moved away. And I moved on. I have a boyfriend now. Austin is sweet, funny, and everything I could ever want. At least, that's what I thought. Until Timothée and Mason suddenly come back. Mason is still the sweet boy I remember. Timothée is still the most annoying person I've ever met. But ten years is a long time. People change. Feelings change. And sometimes, the person you've spent your whole life hating is the person who knows you better than anyone. "We meet again, Mrs. Peach." "Shut up, Mario."

After years away, Summer Reed returns to Pine Ridge to rebuild her life in the farmhouse her grandmother left behind. She expects memories, small-town gossip, and a fresh start-not to fall for Luke Dawson, her brother's best friend and the man she's secretly loved for years. But Luke is a single father with a past he's still healing from, and Summer has her own history waiting at her doorstep. Between old feelings, new beginnings, and a town that believes everyone deserves a second chance, they'll have to decide if some love stories are worth finding their way back to.

● Book 1 in "The Shades of Love" Nayantara Mehra had once believed that some crushes were meant to remain just that-fleeting, innocent, and forgotten. As a bubbly, soft-spoken teenager, she had secretly admired her brother-in-law's best friend, Adhrit Shekhawat-a brilliant, charming, and quiet man who barely saw her as anything more than a child. Years later, fate brings them together in a foreign land, where neither expected to see the other again. She's no longer the teenage girl he once knew. And he's no longer just the man she silently admired. But what happens when old memories meet new beginnings? When distance turns into closeness, and admiration slowly transforms into something far deeper? Can a forgotten crush transform into a love that lasts a lifetime? Or will the weight of time, circumstances, and unspoken fears keep them apart? Will destiny finally give their story a chance... Or was she always meant to become his Ibaadat? Because sometimes, the greatest love stories don't begin with forever... they begin with a second meeting.

How do I go back to loving the way I did when I was twelve? Back when every possibility felt endless. Back when courage was always naturally there. Back when our hearts didn't know how to be afraid. Almost Never follows Karlee as she looks back on the quiet years of growing up in the Philippines during the mid-2010s, where friendship slowly blurred into first love, misunderstandings, and people that we share our most cherished memories with. Through school hallways, late-night conversations, handwritten letters, and rainy afternoons, Karlee discovers that not every love story is meant to become forever. Because perhaps first love was never meant to last forever. Perhaps it was simply meant to teach us how to love.

𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑙𝑖𝑝𝑠 𝑓𝑡. 𝑀𝑦 𝑛𝑒𝑐𝑘 When something shifts between two people who were never meant to look at each other that way... ignoring it doesn't make it disappear. It just makes it more intimate. 𝑺𝒂𝒂𝒏𝒋𝒉 𝑴𝒆𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒓𝒂, someone who has always known where to stop. Careful with her words, her actions, and especially her boundaries. Growing up around the same people taught her one thing-some lines aren't meant to be crossed. She never planned on forgetting that. . 𝑨𝒉𝒂𝒂𝒏 𝑾𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒉𝒂𝒏, her contract husband. A constant presence. Observant, and the kind of person who notices more than he lets on. He doesn't like to interfere. Doesn't cross lines. Until he does. . What starts as nothing more than shared space turns into something neither of them names. A secret they share that's hidden from everyone. And the distance that should exist between them slowly... disappears. And the more they ignore it- the harder it becomes to pretend it doesn't mean anything. "Someone could walk in." "Then move." "You move." "...or what?" "Or I stop pretending I don't want to kiss you."

Two people. One extraordinary love story. A lifetime of music, memories, and moments that could never last forever. Before the world knew their names, before the crowns, the cameras, and the endless crowds, Vienna Sterling and Michael Jackson were simply children with dreams bigger than themselves. Vienna was born into a family built on music. From a young age, she learned what it meant to perform, to create, and to carry the weight of expectations placed on her shoulders. The world would eventually see her as an icon, but behind the fame was a girl who only wanted to be understood. Michael Jackson was a young boy with a voice that would change history. But behind the talent and the attention was someone who longed for a normal life, a place where he could be loved for who he was rather than what he could give. When their paths cross as children, neither of them knows that this moment will shape the rest of their lives. Through decades of changing music, unforgettable performances, and a world constantly watching, Vienna and Michael grow together. They become friends before they become anything else. They become each other's comfort in a life that often feels impossible to carry. To the world, they are the King and Queen of Pop. But to each other, they are just Vienna and Michael. The people who knew the versions of them nobody else saw. The ones who shared quiet moments between the applause. Their love story is filled with joy, success, and a family built from the love they spent years creating. Together, they raise children who become the center of their world - children who know them not as legends, but simply as their parents. Their home is filled with music, laughter, chaos, and memories that become more precious than any award or achievement. But even the most beautiful stories are not untouched by time. Fame comes with sacrifices. Life comes with unexpected turns. And sometimes, the people who mean the most to us are the ones we never get enough time with.

Persephone Hera Hunters left her tiny Tennessee hometown with one dream-to become the country music star she'd always promised herself she'd be. Years later, she has everything she thought she wanted. A platinum record. Sold-out tours. Awards. Fans who know every lyric. The only thing she doesn't have is the ability to write another song. With her record label demanding a new album and every blank page mocking her, her best friend convinces her to go back to the one place she's spent years trying to forget-home. Back to Knoxville. Back to the family ranch. Back to the memories. And back to Hunter Matthews. The boy next door. The star quarterback. The one who made high school miserable by teasing and tormenting her every chance he got. The same boy she'd secretly loved since first grade. Hunter never expected to see Persephone again. After his father's death shattered his dreams of becoming a professional musician, he stayed behind to save the family farm and care for the only family he had left-his mother. Every sunrise is spent feeding cattle. Every weekend is spent risking his life bull riding at rodeos just to keep the farm alive. Music became something he only sang to the fields. But the moment Persephone walks back into town, every feeling he'd buried comes rushing back. She thinks he hated her. The truth is far worse. He loved her so much that sixteen-year-old Hunter had no idea how to show it without pushing her away. Now she's the country superstar writing songs about heartbreak. He's the farmer whose dreams never left Tennessee. And as old wounds reopen, secrets come to light, and unfinished feelings refuse to stay buried, they'll have to decide if love deserves one more chance...or if some songs were always meant to end before the last chorus.

Not every war is fought with swords. Some are fought with silence, memories, and a heart that never learned to let go. She tried to conquer the world, but lost herself in conquering one soul. Lost in Conquering You.
