Not your average Jamaican love story... After a gut-wrenching college situationship with Jamaica's biggest YouTuber, Mia Cole promised herself one thing: Never again. Not the cameras. Not the comments. And definitely not Chase Carter. So when a work opportunity throws her straight back into his orbit, Mia plans to keep things professional, keep her distance, and leave with her dignity intact. Instead, she finds herself dragged into his spotlight once again. Only this time Chase isn't the carefree internet golden boy she remembers. His career is crumbling. His relationship is messier than anyone knows. And somewhere between fake smiles, viral moments, old wounds, and way too much chemistry- Mia starts wondering if the boy who broke her heart was ever the real Chase at all. But fame has a way of turning love into content. And some cancellations don't stay online. *** This novel is in S.E. but also has the Jamaican dialect mixed throughout. *** Feedback is heavily encouraged! Plot holes, spelling mistakes unanswered questions? Call me out! I want to make my idea as best as it can be. Thank you and enjoy!

What if you were given a second life-not to save the world, but simply to live in it? After arriving in a peaceful yet strangely unfamiliar world, a mysterious shapeshifter begins life from scratch. With no fixed appearance, no fixed gender, and no desire for fame or glory, all they want is a place to call home. A cozy house. Beautiful furniture. Late-night online shopping. Delicious food. New friends. And countless little moments that make life worth living. As each day passes, the world slowly reveals its wonders-from advanced technology to breathtaking landscapes that blur the line between fantasy and science fiction. Every purchase, every adventure, and every encounter becomes another step toward building a life filled with warmth. Yet beneath this seemingly perfect paradise lies a quiet mystery. Some secrets are best left untouched... ...but some worlds were never meant to feel this real. Welcome to Sunshine Only-a gentle journey where happiness comes first, and every ordinary day shines a little brighter.

[Unexpected series] 🇰🇷🇺🇸 Accolades 🏆×16 Jhope version Kang Ahri, a brilliant Korean-American psychologist and art enthusiast, takes a break from her well-structured life by spending a week at a conference in Paris. On her days off, she sneaks away to the Louver Museum to have conversations with the world's most famous portraits. She is eccentric, sharp-tongued, and hopelessly single, finding her escape in museums. Whether it is the famous Louver or the Art Institute of Chicago, she especially enjoys her ongoing verbal sparring with a particularly smug painting she considers her nemesis. But one strange evening, after being denied access to her favorite gallery hall, a chance encounter turns her carefully ordered world upside down. She meets Jhope, a different type of masterpiece with a sun-kissed smile, and she's unaware of his stardom. What begins with a broken heel, a sore ankle, and a bruised ego quickly unravels into a surreal mix of fame, art, and an unexpected connection. When two different worlds collide-one painted in oils and another lit by spotlights-the result is anything but ordinary. 'Mona thinks I'm crazy' is a short rom-com story filled with heart, wit, and a touch of whimsical fantasy, where art, destiny, and a kind of love that even a 500-year-old painting can't ignore come together. 📝Published officially: 5/5/25 © Strawberry1d Awards: 15 🥇-1 🥈-5 🥉-8 🏅-1 Highest ranks #1 monalisa 27/7/25 #1 louvre 7/5/25 #1 soundcheck 9/5/25 #1 portraits 7/5/25 #2 monalisa 22/5/25 #22 USA out of 22.1k stories
