    "Bridges of Broken Glass" is a story about love, loss, and the fragile paths we walk to find happiness. It's the journey of a man torn between the memories of a first, unforgettable love and the complicated reality of a life built with another. Through heartbreak, betrayal, and the struggle to forgive, it explores how the past can haunt the present-and how choosing wisely can shape a future worth living. This isn't just a love story; it's a story about resilience, redemption, and the courage it takes to mend what's been broken.

    Rowan Hale knows that names matter. Some names are chosen. Some are inherited. Some are never meant to be spoken aloud. Lucas Whitaker doesn't think much about names at all-until he realises there are some he's afraid to say, and one boy he's terrified of losing. Set over the quiet stretch between summer and autumn, Rowan and Lucas Discover the Weight of Names is a slow-burn boys' love story about two British bisexual boys learning how closeness is built-not through grand confessions, but through borrowed hoodies, shared silences, and the careful language of nicknames. As their friendship edges closer to something neither of them dares to name, Rowan and Lucas must confront what it means to be seen fully, to speak deliberately, and to choose each other without certainty. Some names create distance. Some names mean home. Trigger Warnings / Content Notes * Gender dysphoria (non-graphic, internal) * Miscommunication * Emotional vulnerability * Fear of rejection * Mild internalised anxiety (No explicit sexual content. Romance remains tender, emotional, and PG-13.) This story is about language-about how the words we choose can create distance or closeness, and how sometimes love is learned long before it's spoken. Rowan and Lucas Discover the Weight of Names is a quiet, character-driven boys' love story centred on a trans male protagonist whose journey is not about proving his identity, but about being seen and chosen without explanation. This is a slow burn in the truest sense: no rush, no spectacle, just two boys learning each other carefully and honestly. Thank you for reading with patience. Some stories need silence to work. Transphobia, misgendering, or debates about trans people's legitimacy will be deleted. This space is for respectful discussion only.

    THE NAMES WE OUTGREW by winter-fire Some loves do not end. They simply stop being places you can live. On the eve of his wedding, Nikolai is confronted with a truth he believed had been buried for years. Letters once lost to silence resurface, revealing that the woman he mourned never stopped loving him-and that the life he painstakingly rebuilt may have been founded on a misunderstanding that was never his to make. Caught between two women who embody different forms of survival-one forged in fire and ambition, the other in patience and quiet devotion-Nikolai must face a question with no merciful answer: Is love defined by the passion that first breaks us, or by the steady presence that teaches us how to endure? Told through shifting perspectives and steeped in imagery of winter, memory, and restraint, The Names We Outgrew is a literary exploration of grief, gratitude, and the cost of becoming whole-asking what it means to choose a future when the past refuses to remain silent.

    Between 12 June and Forever Some love stories are loud. Some are dramatic. This one is quiet. Vithra believes in standing on her own-making choices, carrying responsibilities, and moving forward without waiting for permission. Varun believes in building dreams-with code, ambition, and a patience he never learned how to explain. They meet once. At the wrong time. In the right place. There is no confession. No promise. Only a glance that stays longer than it should-and a silence that follows them for years. Life takes them in different directions: careers, countries, growth, heartbreak, and becoming who they were meant to be. Yet somewhere between distance and time, something remains unfinished. Because some love stories don't end when people walk away. They wait. Between 12 June and Forever is a slow-burn romance about unspoken love, personal growth, and finding your way back-not to the past, but to each other.

    Some loves are gentle. This one was not. Ram loved Priya with a kind of intensity that didn't know restraint-only fear, possession, and devotion that crossed the line between love and obsession. Priya loved him too, but loving him meant slowly disappearing inside his need. So she left. Not because she stopped loving him, but because staying meant losing herself. A year later, they meet again-changed, controlled, still aching in places time never touched. What follows is not a reunion, but a reckoning... and a final moment where love proves it was never wrong-just too powerful to survive. Aawara Angaara is a slow-burn tragic romance about obsession, separation, regret, and a love that burns brightest at the moment it destroys everything.

    ~a love story without recognition Elara Hawthorne leaves home searching for healing, unaware that distance would lead her back into love-and forgetting. In a foreign country, she seeks escape and the hope that leaving might soften her wounds. Somewhere along the way, she finds herself again. And she finds someone who shows her the world with gentleness, someone who makes her believe that pain can fade with time. Until he pushes her back into a fall she never expected to survive. She gathers herself through tears, waiting-believing-that he will return. Only to realize that to him, she was never something to remember. Stabbed by forgetting rather than goodbye, Elara is left with a choice: Will she open the same book and read it again, or finally close the chapter that never learned her name? by N&A

Silas Creed is a man of few words, a carpenter who builds walls with his hands and around his heart. He doesn't flirt. He doesn't chase. He doesn't let anyone close. Until Catalina. What begins as annoyance unfolds into stolen glances, unspoken gestures, and a slow-burning love that grows between wood and wildflowers. But in a town weighed down by quiet, Catalina's light threatens to stir truths long kept in the dark. ✨ A tender, poetic small-town romance about a radiant woman, a guarded man, and the way the moon carries the words their hearts can't say.

    She didn't fall in love to be saved. She fell in love after she survived. Once, a hospital room was the only place keeping her alive. The nights were heavy, the thoughts darker than silence itself. And in those moments-when staying felt harder than leaving-there was a doctor who listened. Not loudly. Not dramatically. But gently. Enough to make her choose life. He was older. Steady. Bound by ethics, distance, and reality. To him, she was a patient. Almost a daughter. Someone to protect, not desire. But the heart doesn't always follow rules-especially when it learns how to breathe again. Where I Learned to Stay is an emotional, slow-burn romance about healing, gratitude, unspoken longing, and the quiet fantasies we keep when real life draws boundaries. It is a story about loving someone who was never meant to be yours-and how that love can still save you. This is not a story about crossing lines. It's a story about surviving them. A comforting, poetic journey of mental health recovery, imagined love, and the courage it takes to stay. Author's Note This is a work of fiction inspired by themes of healing and emotional connection. All characters and events are fictional. Professional boundaries are respected.

Jivant Singh Raghuvanshi is a restraint made human, a man of few words, quiet authority, and decisions that echo long after they are made. He knew her father would never let her fulfill her dreams. So he did the unthinkable. He married her. When his mother reminded him of tradition "Hamare ghar ki bahuein ghar ke bahar sirf peehar jaane ke liye nikalti hain." He replied, without raising his voice: "Magar hamari patni aur is ghar ki bahu hone se pehle, Isha ji ek aurat hain. Wo sab karegi, Maa, jo wo karna chahti hain. Aur uske liye hame jo karna padega... ham karenge." And then he left his kingdom. She never asked for love. She asked for a life. And he gave up a throne so she could build one of her own.

    She was twenty-three, invisible in a city that never slowed down. He was everything she was not-established, controlled, untouchable. When an internship places her under the guidance of Ethan Cole, a powerful investor with a life carefully built on boundaries, neither of them expects the quiet pull that follows. What begins as mentorship turns into something far more dangerous: an unspoken connection shaped by restraint, class difference, and timing that refuses to cooperate. As ambition collides with affection, she is forced to choose between becoming who the world expects her to be-or who she wants to become. And when circumstances tear them apart, years will pass before they learn the cost of the line they never crossed. Because some love stories do not burn brightly. They wait. And they change everything.

    Inspired by a Real Conversation This is not a made-up love story. It began with a single post on Taga Lakandula, a heartfelt exchange between two people who once loved each other, now standing on opposite sides of goodbye. One asked: "Inayat dak ba nga talaga?" (Did you really love me?) The other answered: "Aw yan." (I did.) That simple conversation stayed with me, raw, honest, and deeply relatable. Because it's a feeling so many of us know: loving someone fiercely, losing them quietly, and still finding the strength to say, "I hope you're happy." So I wrote it back into life. Not just retold, but reimagined. With rain-soaked nights, seaside weddings, and lingering glances across crowded rooms. Set in Korea, where K-dramas remind us that some loves don't last... but still change everything. This short novel, Cheers to the Love We Shared That Never Last, expands that anonymous message into a full story, told with care, music, and all the feels. To the one who shared that moment: thank you. For trusting the world with your truth. And to everyone who's ever loved and let go: you are not alone. Because if you've ever truly loved someone, you know the meaning of letting go. Not because you stopped loving them... But because you loved them enough to set them free.
