When eighteen-year-old Madin is forced to disguise himself as a girl and serve in the royal palace, he only wants to survive the ordeal and return home. But fate has other plans when the crown prince chooses him as a personal servant. Madin's delicate features make his disguise convincing, but his quiet demeanor and innocent charm begin to capture the prince's attention in ways no one expected. As the prince grows closer to Madin, the lines between duty and desire blur. A powerful love blossoms-until the shocking truth is revealed: Madin is not the girl the prince fell for but a boy hiding behind a mask. Betrayed and furious, the prince struggles with his feelings, torn between love and rage. The undeniable attraction he feels defies everything he has been taught about power, identity, and duty. Madin, meanwhile, finds himself trapped between his growing feelings for the prince and the dangerous consequences of his deception. Passion turns to chaos, and love becomes a battle neither of them expected to fight. Will their connection survive the truth, or will the prince's anger destroy them both? A story of forbidden love, identity, and the courage it takes to accept oneself-and others-against all odds.

So Where Does that Put Us (boy x boy), écrit par LifeDeep

"When something terrible happens to someone, everyone feels sorry for you at first, they take your hand and cry fake tears and say how 'special' you are, how strong you are. But after a while they forget...Then they don't see a person anymore they just see this terrible thing and think you're terrible because of it...It's like a little switch that goes off in people's heads: one minute everyone is your friend and they care oh-so much, then, when things die down, they become terrified of you. You'd be surprised to see what fear can make someone do." Justin Ivanov has never led much of a normal life, but when his sister passes away, his entire world falls apart. Trapped in an abusive relationship and in a school where everyone is scared of him, Justin continues to deteriorate, pinning all his hope on his confused best friend, Ben Fulton. He struggles to keep his family together without them finding out the hidden secret of his sexuality. But the more he fails, the closer he gets to losing himself forever. Ben Fulton doesn't understand what depression is. He doesn't understand why people have it or how to fix it. But when the sudden death of his best friend's sister leaves him feeling empty, he comes too close to comfort with just what depression can make someone do. Trying to sort out his own emotions, sexuality, and future out, Ben also has to balance trying to save Justin. But the more he tries, the more his feelings grow for his best friend, and the closer Justin gets to destroying himself.

It's a quiet coastal town meant to be a temporary assignment... until Juanjo. Juanjo Bona, twenty-one, lives a quiet life helping at his family's store and losing himself in books . Where love is allowed to be soft, messy, and real. But when Martin walks into his town and his life. Juanjo finds himself drawn to the fire behind the soldier's eyes, even if it's buried under layers of anger, pain, and secrets. What starts as a tense, unexpected connection turns into something neither of them can control. Juanjo knows Martin is dangerous for his heart, his peace, maybe even his future, but walking away feels impossible. And Martin? He's spent years learning how to survive but not how to feel.
