Almost Us by SilverySplendid

This is my first novel. A story born from countless imagined scenarios-those "what if" moments in the head that never happened but feel so real. It's about friendship, laughter, jealousy, and the feelings we keep hidden. It's about the times we're too quiet, the words left unsaid, and the moments that could have changed everything... if only. What if we were more than friends? What if I said what I felt? What if things turned out differently? This is not the story of "us." This is the story of what we almost were.

Where the Sun Finds Us by sunfloweroil_

🌤️ Where the Sun Finds Us Sometimes, the light you've been chasing... finds you first. In the middle of her midlife crisis, Lei thought the chaotic part of her life was finally over. But sometimes, in the midst of all the noise, that's where new stories begin. One day, she receives an unexpected scholarship to Celestra Republic's most prestigious academy - a school for the nation's brightest minds and top celebrities completing their mandatory academic enlistment. Lei's plan was simple: a fresh start. Quiet. Far from everything that once hurt. But instead of peace, she found five of the country's most famous personalities - each carrying a secret behind their spotlight. A golden-retriever boy with tired eyes. A med student who laughs to hide his guilt. A gentle heir who has everything, except the courage to be real. A composed idol adored by millions but haunted by a past he can't face. And his best friend - someone who somehow feels familiar, even though they've just met. But Lei is different. She's the contrast - the calm to their chaos. She was raised in a home filled with warmth, where love was steady, laughter was constant, and kindness was taught not through words, but through how people treated one another. And that kind of upbringing - she slowly begins to bring it back to the people she meets in Celestra. To those who've forgotten what real happiness feels like. To those who've learned to fake smiles just to survive. Because that's what she was taught - to give the same gentleness she was once given. To be the kind of light that doesn't blind, but heals. And maybe, as she helps them find their own sunshine, Lei will learn how to become the light she's been searching for all along. Because sometimes, you don't have to chase the sun. Sometimes, you just have to be the warmth someone else has been searching for. ✨ A story about kindness passed down, love rediscovered, and how the way we're raised can shape the light we bring into the world.

I'm Glad I Met You (PART 2) by 0racularwheat

When a quiet boy from Brooklyn and a newly arrived girl from Ukraine cross paths at thirteen, neither expects the kind of connection that will shape them for years to come. Built on stillness, small moments, and unspoken understanding, their bond becomes something unforgettable - even when time and distance try to erase it. Years later, in the unfamiliar rhythm of college life, they find themselves sharing a space once more. But they are no longer the same kids they were. Memory is fragile. Emotions are complicated. And the closeness they once took for granted now feels like something they have to learn all over again. Told in a slow-burning, emotionally grounded style with intimate detail, The Silence Between Then and Now is a story about rediscovery - of love, of self, and of everything that once lived in the quiet between words. For readers who crave heartfelt connection, bittersweet memory, and romance that unfolds like a song you didn't know you remembered.

Where Do We End by imatissue

Where Do We End follows two souls bound by a love so fierce it burns everything in its path. They were once inseparable - laughter, passion, and dreams of forever. But what began as devotion slowly turns into destruction. Arguments spiral into wars, affection turns to accusation, and every word becomes a weapon. They promise to leave but never do. They cling to the memories of who they used to be - the soft touches, the shared secrets, the hope that maybe love is enough to fix what's already shattered. Caught in a cycle of heartbreak and healing, they fight to find each other again while losing themselves in the process. Raw, intimate, and hauntingly real, Where Do We End is a story about the thin line between love and pain - and the desperate search for peace in the wreckage of a love that refuses to die.

Never A Choice by RoseberryShine29

"No matter the choices I'm given, it'll always be you, Aurie." He was her best friend, her safe place, her everything-the one person who shared the weight on her shoulders. Every laugh, every secret whispered in the night, every quiet moment that stitched to the fabric of her heart made her feel like the world belonged only to them. But then, in the blink of an eye, he chose someone else. Her world crumbles down. Unaware of the truth behind his decision, Aurora Everhart is left to face the hollow ache of losing him. But as fate pulls her between love and heartbreak, she can't shake the question that still haunts her, 'Was I ever really a choice?' "No one shielded me from the storm the way you did, Ronnie. But now you're leaving me alone with nothing to cover myself." His whole world revolved around her, his only best friend, the one person he thought he knew better than anyone else. He understood her every laugh, every whisper, every unspoken thought...but never the secret she had kept so carefully hidden from him, just as his own heart held truths he hadn't fully understood. Bounded by a promise and terrified of the truth buried deep inside that he refuses to acknowledge, he's forced to choose someone else and leave his Aurie alone in the storm. Will he ever be able to win her back, even after the choices he's made? The two promises that tore his life apart- the one that he still upholds and the other that he failed to keep- whisper words of desolation in his ear: 'I promise to keep you happy, I promise to... marry you' and 'I promise, my baby strawberry, if I'm ever lost, I'll always find my way back to you.' We often think the heart and the brain are at odds, but in their tale, we get to know that hearts themselves are their own fiercest contradictors - stubborn, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.
