10 parts Ongoing
Life is a complex and diverse phenomenon that encompasses the existence of living beings on earth. You can either hate life or love it. There's no in between. Willow Romano on the other hand loves it. She has the perfect life. Not once in her life did she have to lift a finger to do any kind of work. Coming from a wealthy family meant that she was born into a life of privilege and luxury. She had access to the best education, traveled around the world in private jets, attended extravagant parties, and never faced any financial struggles. Despite all these material comforts and societal privileges, Willow Romano found herself yearning for something more meaningful in life. Deep down inside she felt a sense of emptiness that no amount of wealth or extravagance could fill. She needed something or more so, someone. Harper Sánchez has her moments where she enjoys life but she also hates it. Having such a high profile job makes her feel like she's constantly under scrutiny and pressure. The demands of her career often leave her feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, despite the occasional moments of enjoyment that come with success. Harper struggles to find a balance between work and personal life, as the responsibilities of her job consume much of her time and energy. While she appreciates the opportunities that come with having a high-profile position, such as financial stability and professional recognition, Harper also grapples with feelings of isolation and burnout. The constant need to perform at a certain level takes its toll on her mental health, leading to periods where she questions if it's all worth it.

Keep yourself safe first. TW~ abuse, eating disorder, body image issues, spiritual abuse, rape. I will try to update this list if anything needs to be added Also this is going to be like the opposite of those books romanticizing super strict religious lives. Nothing against them if it works for you, those views just aren't going to be in this book. Some of this story will be based on my own experiences dealing with some of the aspects of this story.

"Listen Kenzy, I know I've been an ass and truthfully maybe you shouldn't even bother returning my calls. You're right, I've been nothing but awful since we met, driving you away yet desperate to keep you close" My heart clinches, but I dared not breathe. Too afraid to give in, too afraid that if I reach for the phone, I'll call. I'll call to make it right. I want to make it right, because this man affects me more than I ever thought he would. But it isn't right. I can't give myself false hope. "Please just talk to me, let me explain. It's not you.....it's me. I'm the asshole. You don't deserve this, you didn't. ..." He pauses and I hold my breath still, fearing he'd hear me breathe, yet, it's only his left voicemail on the phone. Not him "I'm sorry.......dammit!" And that's it, our one sided conversation ends and I'm more broken than before. What happens when your world crashes? When the people you thought would be there forever literally runs through the door without a second glance backwards? What happens with taking a step outside your comfort zone? What happens when that step outside that comfort zone turns into....well unexpected? Personalities clash, feelings are crushed and just maybe that one person you ignore turns out to be the damn life savers. Easy enough, but did I forget to mention they belong to someone else? Will what happens in summer stay with summer? The beautiful cover was done by @LittleRedConverse23, go check out her great work ❤❤❤ #thebuttercupawards2020 #RoseAwards

This would be really boring. You don't need to waste time reading this. Not just boring, it might be even heartbreaking. The story was still going on, and therefore I had no idea whether it would end in a tragedy or not, but I had a feeling it would. And it did. We broke up under the striking, burning sun of 19th September, 2016. I write usually in a monotone description, therefore don't judge if you read this. My name is Rue, and I wish my life could be like the picture I put as a cover of my story, colourful, calm, and with a soulmate who keeps loving me all the way. However, things never happen as what we would like them to happen. I don't love my life, but I want to remember all that once happened. I want to look back one day, when I'm fully grown, and smile or tell my old self right now that I'm dumb. Mostly and lastly, I just want to remember him, the one I very much remember right now, but will fade in times to come. It is already fading now, and I only hope that I can write them all before they disappear from my mind, forever...
