She was beautiful. From the tiny blonde rivulets cascading onto her shoulders like honey, to her gentle and innocent smile. To the curves she had. I noticed every curve on her slim figure. The curve leading up from her leg to her back. Even more subtle curves like the ones one her finger that led to her arm--I was in love with all of her. I have never thought of myself as a ladies man or even slightly attractive. I'm not even very popular. It's not like I'm this repulsive creature, I just don't make the effort to speak to anyone new...but when I saw her, it was a fresh start. I'm sure that she could not convince me of my possible attractiveness, nor could I tell her of her own beauty. She had never seen the light of day and had never known. Meri--her pale skin, pink toes, curly hair, kind heart and all,--was blind.

When our eyes met
"As I looked up, my eyes met someone else's. He had curly copper brown hair that fell on his forehead and a chiseled jaw but I wasn't too concerned about his physical attributes. What really stuck out to me was his hazel eyes. I felt my pupils dilate as I slowly melted in his eyes. I felt safe in the comfort of his gaze. Why do I feel safe? The room faded away. It was just the two of us. Why does he have this effect on me? His eyes looked sympathetic. Why is he sympathetic? What are my eyes telling him? I felt a warm sensation flow through my body as my breaths became deeper. I didn't care about any of what happened before and I didn't care about anyone else. I just wanted to stay in this moment, with him, forever."Complete
Love Comes Unexpected ✔
I quickly turned away from him, to get the hell out of the room. But he caught my arm and pulled me back into his chest. Shit. Fuck. He buried his face in my hair, arms enclosing around me and whispered into my ear, ❝I thought things between us were getting better, is this how your gonna lie and ruin it?❞ I could feel him smiling against my ears, his fingers gently raking through my hair. I didn't reply. This is exactly the situation I didn't wanna get into, cause I know I melt when he says shit like that. ❝You gonna give up resisting me now?❞ His lips barely touching my ears. My heart skipped a beat as he tightened his hold on me. ♡♥♡♥♡♥♡ SAMANTHA ROSS Beautiful. Smart. Successful. Kind. Stubborn. That's who she was. But life challenges everyone at some point, right?

I Don't Like The World, I Only Like You
The night before we obtained our marriage certificate, I asked him, "When did you start to develop feelings for me?" He answered, "I don't remember." "But, why me?" "Why not you?" "I'm very petty, and I get jealous very easily." "So am I." "I'm afraid I'm not worthy of you." "So am I." "I haven't really dated, so I don't know what love is." "I don't know either." He held my hand gently, "But I know this. When I think about spending the rest of my life with you, I feel that my future is filled with hope." At 16, we used the same class desk, with less than 10cm between our arms. My peripheral vision was full of him. At 26, I woke up in the morning, and saw the sunlight softly shining on his face. I thought, this is how I want to grow old - gradually, together, with him. I guess this must be love. ___________________________________________________ Associated Names 我不喜欢這世界，我只喜欢你 Original Publisher 湖南少年儿童出版社Complete
She was always there
She was always there... too bright, too loud, too in love. He never looked twice. Until he told his friends: "She's always there, I wish she'd disappear." So she simply did. Days later, she returned... unrecognizable. Cold. Confident. Distant. Not the girl who stared at him with heart shaped eyes. Now, she's his rival. His competition. The girl he can't stop noticing. It started with heartbreak. Became a slow-burn war. And it might just end in love. ----------- You got a notification.

Love Misunderstood
I only ever met one man I'd call truly noble. He was a man who was misunderstood and worthy of the world, yet everyone saw him differently. That was until I saw his true colours. The more I caught his eye the more he noticed me. We would pass each other, I would always stare a little longer at his back, wondering his story. People used to move out of the hallways if they saw him approaching whereas people would come and talk to me. He kept to himself, I was never alone, he had no friends, I was friends with everyone, I never saw him talk to anyone I spoke to many. we were polar opposites. At least that's what I thought until that day in the library, that is where I will start this story. Everyone is different, I hate the word "different", I much prefer the word unique. Unique is the only way to describe him. This is not just a story about love, it is about helping two souls who act differently but are the same on the inside, it shows the messy parts that aren't shown in movies, the tragedy, and the comedy but most of all the sizzling romance between two broken people who became one. Who is this story about? Caden James. But this is not just his story, It is ours.Complete

What she didn't know was fate was about to deal her a hand that she needed to help put all her demons back where they belonged, locked away for good. A war hardened soldier, blinded in an attack while doing a black ops mission, was sitting there with his friend at a movie night of all things when an angel walked into the room.

Sight unseen, he'd decided she was the most beautiful thing he'd ever met. He knew he had issues she didn't deserve to have to handle. She knew she had a past that he wouldn't want to deal with. But fate had other plans for the two lovers, a blind promise. Can they work through their differences, their mental health challenges, and the dangerous situations that come their way?Complete
