We survived the plane crash.
⠀
We survived days on a raft in the middle of the ocean. Right when all hope to get rescued crumbled, we shared a kiss that left me heartbroken―my first and last kiss.
⠀
Or so I thought. Because we didn't die.
⠀
My plan is to never see Chris Ross again. To keep hanging out with his sister without crossing his path. Getting my life back together and working on my goals are the only things that matter. I have plans, and they don't include love.
⠀
But then he shows up at my workplace, asking for my friendship. When I learn something that changes everything, I'm determined to stay away and not let myself fall for him.
⠀
Too bad he's persistent. Too bad I can't stop thinking about the damn kiss. Too bad it's nice having him around and being his friend.
⠀
If things were to change, they could get really complicated...

He caught my chin forcing my eyes up to his again. "Or what?" I asked my voice shaking. I don't know what he was trying to say but it was all true. My breath came out jittery, staggered and just like that he was pressing his lips into mine with such pressure. I didn't move for a second too scared what the hell this was. I couldn't even think, did I want to kiss him back? Did I like this? I was staring wide eyed in shock at him still his eyes open to as he stayed perfectly still neither one of us moving.

Do We Let Go? by lexeme_sorceress

Zara was leaving the man who she considered to be the love of her life, who'd become her first ever home, to pursue her life-long dreams. Heartbroken yet determined, she arrives in U.S.A. to work in her favourite publishing company. Miles away, Zach's life was going perfect, until he's suddenly left behind by the woman he was ready to spend the rest of his life with. Left to pick up the pieces of his broken heart, he's having a hard time moving on. It is when the two broken hearts meet, tangled up in sheets that eventually tangles up their lives. Forced to live with their choices and hoping to make it out of the mess that their lives have been, the last thing the two ever wanted was to fall for each other. When choices needs to be made and priorities be set, they are conflicted. After all, the worst thing that could happen to you is meeting the right person at the wrong time. *** "I never thought that amidst all of the chaos, I would get to meet a man capable of such compassion. A man with a golden heart. A man such charming--", my voice broke, but I knew I had to tell him this, "and loving that sometimes just renders me speechless." Tears fell down my eyes. He smiled. "I never thought I'd meet a woman of such strength, resilience and confidence that you possess. A wonderful woman who makes me realize just how fortunate I am to be a part of her life." The ache in my chest heightened. "But I'm not the woman for you." ___ Ranked 1st in #one-night-stand - 12/12/2020 Ranked 1st in #earlylover - 28/09/21 Ranked 1st in #morals - 27/08/2021 Ranked 3rd in #romancereads2020 - 02/006/2021 Ranked 6th in #strongwoman - 15/04/2021 Ranked 6th in #earlylover - 07/06/2021

Chances Of Truth ☑️ by zZohana3

"It's too much to remember everything and everyone, all pain and hurt is killing me day by day little by little. I wish I could remove all the pain and move on in my life. I wish I could find an eraser or Better a delete button, so that I could start from beginning, without any misery or pain." ......................................................................................... "Hey Eva, you know you can trust me, right? " He asked me again cupping my cheeks, I can't let him continue this. It had to stop now or it would be too late. I can't risk everyone's life specially his. If hurting him means, him being alive then I would do it without thinking. Again and again. "Eva are you even listening to me?" Noah asked moving his face closer. From this close I can even see the scar which he told me about, its just below the border line of his hair, it can be easily conceal but from this close its more real. His eyes, they are magical. I would love to look at them all the time and never get tired of looking at in them. No, I cannot do this to him, I can't be selfish, I have to do something this time. "No" I answer and walked away from him. .............................................................

Love Comes Unexpected ✔ by prettyfangz

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?

With past baggage catching up in the most intrusive ways, she stumbles upon unexpected comfort of friendship, unconditional love of found family, and a beautiful yet complicated bond between two hesitant souls.
