Every one has their own story.
Nina, however, has never been one for the romantic, sappy ones.
She still reads them, although they like to rip her heart out whenever she finishes.
She falls in love with the characters and then wishes that those cliché things would happen to her.
But that's the problem.
They don't.
Everyone looks at her differently than they do with others.
And, well, that's because she is.
She's a religious girl, living in a small town where everyone knows everyone.
She doesn't get to have the luxuries of everyone else around her.
But she doesn't want any of those luxuries they have.
She knows she's following God in the way He wants her to live.
She doesn't need the things of this world to be happy.
People like her don't get to live in clichés.
But once, just once, Nina might actually get to experience the romance that she's been dreaming of.
This isn't your average love story.
Everyone has their own story.
Her name is Nina Delgado.
And this isn't just a story about how she found love.
This is a story about her walk with Christ, and how she found something more than just a relationship.
She found hope, faith, and someone to grow closer to God with.

The Center of Us
Jamie never expected a rainy afternoon in a café to change his life. Maya had no idea a random café visit would lead her to someone who'd come to matter more than she expected. What begins as a simple hello quickly turns into late-night conversations, quiet laughter, and a love that feels both fragile and unshakable. From the moment Jamie and Maya meet, their story unfolds with a mix of humor, faith, and undeniable connection. But love is never without its battles. Together, they face heartbreak and healing, learning that marriage is more than just vows-it's sacrifice, grace, and choosing each other, even when the world feels heavy. Through loss, near-divorce, and the long road back to one another, Jamie and Maya discover that true love doesn't mean avoiding pain-it means walking through it hand in hand. Their journey spans years of joy and trial, worship and weeping, laughter and tears. And in every season, one truth remains: love rooted in Christ endures.

Maybe
An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me? No, wait-oh my god." --- After switching high schools, Nina discovered a new way of life. She fell in love, made wonderful friends, and everything seemed perfect. But Ethan-a popular boy who never focused on anyone but her-was the object of her hatred. He was always there, always keeping her safe. He used to annoy her endlessly. She hated him deeply. Until she didn't. For a while, she was content with her high school experience. That is, until something mysterious turned her world upside down. Forced to move to a new city, Nina had to cut ties with everyone she once knew. Eight years later, fate brings her face-to-face with him again. "Ethan..." He's the key to everything-the truths she never knew. When she was lost in the dark, he always held the light. But now, things are different. She despises him. He's colder than ever. Or perhaps she fears him. Fears that he'll leave her again. Will their lives ever return to normal after everything they've endured? "Maybe?" "Maybe yes.

Lady Of The Church
Jill never thought her Junior year of high school would revolve around a "Dirty Minister", his happy-go-lucky son, the annual Lady Of The Church pageant, and her dream of finally snagging her childhood crush. All the "Dirty" Reverend Goody wants to do is bring a little faith into this horribly gray town but that's close to impossible with his nasty reputation and shady past. That's where Jill comes in and saves the day. However, Jill's success and sudden holiness comes with a tragic price as well. Her downfall, her losing it all, the poop chute, the loneliness. The girl who never thought she could stand alone ever again finds herself alienated with not one of her friends by her side. Of course she can be holy, she can become one with the church, and she can forget the people that won't mind forgetting her. But what if she forgets herself as well? What if she forgets what she set out to do in the first place? What could possibly go wrong? She's small town famous, she brought holy faith to a high it's never been before in her town. But a little faith goes a long way......and in a direction Jill never saw coming. Never did Jill believe she could inspire a church, never did she think she could inspire a town, never did she imagine she would ever finally attract the guy of her dreams ......but never did she think she would fall hard along the way for someone else with a want stronger than hers to have someone by their side. And to not be alone.... *Aug 2014Lengkap
COLD (a nigerian story)
"Nevaeh you need to understand that life ain't a bed of roses. It has it's ups and downs but that doesn't mean you should blame God for that! Once in a while you lose people you love. It's not because God hates you or because he doesn't exists. It's because that's what is meant to happen." He said dropping his fanta. "God exists. And that's why you and I are still living" he finished. I frowned at him not wanting to press the issue further. He held my gaze, his eyes not leaving mine. I looked down at my plate trying to avoid his bold stare. "This sucks" I muttered. Daniel and Yimika are practically the same in this God thingy. How the heck did I get myself tangled with them?! ############## Have you ever come across someone with so much drama in their life? If you haven't... Meet Yemisi Nevaeh Simon, A fifteen years old Nigerian who has spent fourteen years of her life living in America but comes down to Nigeria with her family. Daughter of a well respected Godly Billioniare. Loves to express herself, cold hearted, mean, self centered, selfish and lots more. Used to be a Christian but things changed when her twin died in a 'gun shot' right behind her. She doesn't give up yet in searching for her twin because of the mysteries that keep unfolding. She meets Yimika Owolabi, the complete opposite of her, but like the saying, opposite attracts, they became best friends. She also meets Daniel, but after a loong time...they finally get along. What then happens when Tony comes? Because in my point of view, they are like birds of the same feathers so why didn't they want to flock together at the beginning? Fights for justice, Fights for love, Fights for right. There is a little plot twist though. Maybe or maybe not........... NO CUSSING, SWEARING OR MATURE CONTENTS.

The Pause
Maeve wasn't looking for anything the night she walked into Shine. She was on a disastrous date with a man more interested in other women than in her - and when he ditched her to dance with someone else, she was left alone and ready to leave. That's when she met Nathan. Their connection was instant - raw, electric, and far too deep to ignore. They fell fast and hard. But when Maeve opened up about her hopes for marriage, children, and building a home grounded in Christian faith, it became clear Nathan wasn't in the same place. Not yet. Still in love but spiritually torn, they agreed to take a break - not to walk away from each other, but to give Nathan space to search for the truth and decide where he stood with God. During that pause, Taylor entered the picture. Kind, steady, and already a part of Maeve's church life, he offered what seemed like clarity in the midst of confusion. But her bond with Nathan lingered - powerful, unfinished. Then came the accident. As Nathan lies in the hospital, and Maeve wrestles with the weight of timing, both are brought to the edge of themselves - and of their faith. What does it mean to truly trust God? Can love endure while waiting for transformation? And is it possible that the pause wasn't a delay... but part of the design? The Pause is a stirring, faith-filled love story about surrender, timing, and the quiet miracle of two hearts being reshaped by God - together.Lengkap

Guaranteed page turning fun till the very end. •Entered Wattys2020🤩 •Entered Wattys2021🤩 I can already hear the "that's bi-phobic" comments as a beginning bisexual in 2012. This was real life... this was my religious bisexual life experience. And I take pride in what I wrote here. Of fucking course religious bisexuals go "back and forth" in a homophobic era. You won't have to teach me wrong from right. I'm just sharing one experience to relate to other's similar experiences. We will not be silenced. 🏳️🌈❤️🔥Lengkap
