    Est Supha has everything-wealth, status, power, and a future already written in gold. He's the perfect heir of a perfect family, living a life untouched by consequences. Until a single scandal shatters everything. As public outrage threatens to destroy their empire, Est's parents make an unthinkable decision-to marry him off. Not for love. Not for choice. But for image. William is nothing like Est. An orphan. Soft-spoken. Kind in a world that rewards cruelty. A man who teaches poor children under the sun and expects nothing in return. A man who becomes a husband not because he wants to be-but because he is chosen. Their marriage is a contract signed in silence. One bed. Two strangers. A house colder than the headlines outside. Est keeps his distance. William keeps his feelings to himself. Because loving someone who never reaches back is painful. But what Est doesn't know- While he's fighting to rebuild his reputation, William is fighting something much quieter. Something that doesn't trend. Something that doesn't wait. Because scandals fade. Power can be reclaimed. But love? Love becomes dangerous when you realize you might lose the one person who loved you first. And sometimes... the husband meant to protect a family name becomes the one worth destroying it for. Cold Husband × Gentle Husband Contract Marriage Slow Burn One-Sided Love Regret Arc 🦈🎸

    He was her safe place. Until he became her reason to run. Mateo and Lucia grew up as neighbors, best friends, and everything in between-inseparable since childhood. Everyone thought they were unbreakable. Everyone was wrong. One misunderstanding. One lie Mateo never questioned. And Lucia goes from being loved... to being ignored, humiliated, and emotionally crushed by the boy who once protected her. So she leaves. No explanations. No goodbyes. Just scars and a new identity. Years later, Lucia returns-harder, colder, and nothing like the girl Mateo broke. She doesn't need him. She doesn't miss him. And she definitely doesn't forgive him. But Mateo finally wants the truth. The problem? Lucia no longer wants him. Because some people don't get closure. They get consequences.

    Some people disappear loudly. They scream, fight, leave, and make sure the world notices their absence. Vanika didn't. She stayed. She breathed. She smiled when expected to. She learned when to lower her eyes and when to pretend she was fine. This is not a story about a girl who wanted to die. It is about a girl who wanted to live, but slowly realized that no one around her wanted her alive. Families don't always abandon children by leaving them behind. Sometimes they abandon them by keeping them close, feeding them, educating them, and still making them feel unwanted every single day. Vanika was loved on paper. Fed with money. Maintained with silence. And when life finally asked her for more than her body could give, when illness crept in quietly and motherhood arrived briefly and left brutally, she did not cry loud enough for the world to notice. Because she had already learned something far more dangerous than pain. She learned how to disappear while still being present. This book does not promise comfort. It does not promise justice. It does not promise that love will fix everything. It promises truth. The kind that makes you pause mid-page. The kind that makes you rethink how easily we judge, ignore, or wound the quiet ones. If you are looking for a beautiful love story, you may want to stop here. But if you are willing to witness what happens before someone disappears completely - turn the page. Vanika is waiting.

    "ᴀʟᴡᴀʏꜱ." It was a promise Ruby believed in with her whole heart, until he left. Three years ago, her best friend moved across the ocean without so much as a goodbye, leaving behind nothing but silence and a heart he'd shattered without looking back. Now he's back. But the boy who knew her better than anyone is gone. In his place stands someone colder. Harder. Untouchable. A stranger with guarded eyes, and a heart Ruby no longer recognizes. He avoids her. Pushes her away. Pretends she means nothing. Yet no matter how much distance he creates, the gravity between them refuses to die. In their small town near Santa Barbara, where old memories linger and broken families hide ugly truths, Ruby and Finn are trapped in a war between who they were and who they've become. He is the storm she never survived. She is the fire he never escaped. And when silence finally breaks, it won't leave either of them unburned.

    For everyone who saw Kim Taehyung act and thought: what if him as an actor wasn't a fantasy? What if he was the one falling apart behind the scenes and I was the one to help him as his co-star? A slow burn for enemies to.... whatever. Korea's top action star. The nation's sweetheart actress.
One house. One bed. One very fake method marriage for the filming of the romance Netflix K-drama of the year. After ten years of bickering, biting remarks, and suspiciously charged eye contact, Jennie Chang and Parker Hoo are forced by contract. Sparks fly... and not the good kind. Think flame-thrower meets matchstick. The script? A steamy drama about a forced marriage between a cold CEO and the golden retriever employee. 
The setting? One very real house with one bed they have to share.
 The twist? A two-week trial period... to show their ten years of bickering is enough for 'chemistry' on screen, if Jennie doesn't murder Parker because of his loud breathing first. And a chaotic agent (Lee) who conspires with the director for his clients who he has been shipping for over ten years. #parniecaptain The fire they've always danced around? It's blooming.
 Whether it burns their careers, image or their denial is anyone's guess. But one thing is for sure, it's fire flower blooming, reputation burning, heart warming, with a hint of sabotage. 
Perfect for fans of fake marriage tropes with Kim Taehyung in mind, slow-burn rivals-to-lovers, and stories where love hides in the margins of scripts.

    By day, Draco Malfoy looks at Y/N Potter like she's something he scraped off the bottom of his shoe. And she looks at him like she'd rather swallow a fistful of Doxy venom than agree with a single word that leaves his stupid, perfect mouth. They fight in corridors. They snap at each other in class. They are a war waiting to happen. But at night... When the castle is quiet and the torches burn low and prefect duty traps them in the same endless hallways, something changes. It starts with silence that feels too loud. With arguments that turn into whispers. With tension so thick it could choke them both. And then he kisses her. It was supposed to mean nothing. A mistake. A lapse in judgment under the moonlight. But it keeps happening. In the dark, Draco touches her like she's something fragile. Like she's something his. Like he doesn't hate her at all. And then morning comes. And he goes back to looking at her like she's his greatest enemy. Enemies by day. Something worse by night. Because pretending to hate each other is easy. Pretending they don't feel anything? That's the part that's killing them.

    They weren't supposed to touch. They weren't even supposed to look. Clara Moretti is building her surgical career under a name that already casts a long shadow. Damiano David is a trauma attending who learned early what it costs to survive pressure - and who taught Clara everything except how to stay away from him. This is not a love story about freedom. It's a story about restraint cracking, about desire curdling under pressure, about what happens when wanting someone doesn't make you brave - it just makes you exposed. Some lines don't explode when you cross them. They tighten. Slowly. Until there's no way back.

    Shoto Todoroki has always seen the red string of fate. Glowing faintly against the world's dullness, it coils around his finger, tugging gently at something-or someone-he's never dared to face. Haunted by a broken family and terrified of dragging someone else into the chaos, he never follows it. Never even looks to see who waits at the other end. Instead, he twirls the string quietly, using it as a distraction, a lifeline, a secret. Until it leads him straight to Iida. Iida, who doesn't see strings. Iida, who treats Shoto with kindness and laughter. Iida, who falls into a relationship with someone else-while Shoto falls in love with him in silence. As years pass and the string tightens around Shoto's heart, tension builds between them. Iida remains oblivious-until fate finally pulls hard enough to unravel everything they thought they understood. Will they sever the thread before it strangles them both? Or will they learn that fate might be inevitable-but love is a choice?

She died for me, gifting me her last smile... and a grief powerful enough to tear worlds apart. But fate? Oh, fate has a twisted sense of humor. She's back-reborn in another body, another life-and this time I won't let the heavens decide for us. If the gods try to reclaim her, I will burn their golden thrones to ash.

    For Cassie, life is mostly about passing exams, dealing with people, and trying not to have a mental breakdown every other chapter. She knows better than to expect peace. Fate has never been that kind, and its timing is always annoyingly perfect. So OF COURSE, that is when Chris shows up. the universe decided to drag and drop him. He is calm in an unsettling way, notices things he really should not, and somehow always knows what is going on in her life. He appears exactly when needed, asks the right questions, and gets way too comfortable being involved for someone nobody invited. What follows is academic stress, elite chaos, crossed lines, and the slow realisation that care can start to feel a lot like control. This is not a cute romance. It is about obsession acting normal, danger pretending to be concern, and a guy who really should not have this much access to anyone's life.

    At 31, Nandi Mkhize is running on fumes. ​She's drowning in debt, working a dead-end job, and watching her friends surge past her toward success and marriage. After an evening spent wrestling with despair, Nandi's frustration boils over onto a language app, where she unleashes an isiZulu curse at a cocky, handsome stranger. ​That stranger is Hanuel. He's sharp, arrogant, and definitely Korean, even though he's pretending to teach Japanese. Their first conversation is a volatile, insult-fueled mess that should have ended with a blocked account. Instead, it ends with a proposition. ​Hanuel has done his research. He knows Nandi is outspoken, beautiful, and boasts 90K followers. He sees her not as a woman, but as a trending hashtag. ​His pitch is simple: A fake relationship for YouTube and TikTok. "A whole Korean dating a whole African. It's rare. People would eat it up." The prize? Life-changing money for Nandi, and a viral career for Hanuel. ​For Nandi, this deal means selling her soul and cultural identity to a man who saw her only as an investment. But with R6,500 a month barely keeping her afloat, she is desperate enough to sign a contract with the devil. ​Now, their soft launch is a high-stakes, globally-watched performance. As the lines blur between their hate-filled banter and undeniable chemistry, Nandi must figure out how to maintain the lie without losing her heart, her pride, and everything she thinks she knows about who she is.
