A chance encounter. A shared destiny. Eventually, everything connects...
Two souls. Two secrets. One fate.
Nineteen-year-old Aurelia Rose Lewis seems to have it all - top of her class at the University of Toronto, a picture-perfect relationship with her high school sweetheart, and a tight-knit circle of ambitious friends. With a mother newly promoted to CEO and a father renowned in the Film and TV legal world, her life looks enviable from the outside.
But what the world doesn't see is the grief she still carries for her sister...
Or the memory of the night that changed everything.
Jamal Beaumont, Jamaican-born and raised in Britain, is an aspiring musician with a voice made for the UK charts and a past he's desperate to outrun. After a heartbreak that shattered him - and a family revelation that left him reeling - he boards a one-way flight with no real destination, just the hope of escape.
She wants to forget who she is.
He wants to forget where he came from.
But fate has other plans.
When their worlds unexpectedly collide, what begins as a fleeting connection turns into something deeper - something that could save them both. But love can't fix what's been left unspoken. And sometimes, the only way forward... is to finally stop running.

Aurelia
Her name was written in golden ink, and nothing would ever be the same. Aurelia never imagined her quiet life would matter to anyone-until the Quill of Calling inscribed her name in glowing gold, marking her as chosen. Now she's a student at Crowned Star University, an ethereal academy hidden far from the world she knew, where future royals and magical beings are shaped into something greater. Within its velvet-draped halls, she finds freedom for the first time... and something else stirring-something forgotten, blooming slowly inside her. Her magic doesn't follow rules. It pulses with emotion, echoing fear, softness, longing. It reacts to dreams. To safety. To pain. And to them. There are whispers about the four princes-each one cloaked in power, mystery, and something she can't quite name. Wind, shadow, light, and stone. Their eyes linger too long. Their presence shifts the air. And somehow, without meaning to, Aurelia begins to belong to places-and people-she never thought would see her. But when a cursed book begins to pull on her soul, and a ghost starts whispering truths no one else dares speak, Aurelia must decide who she is: the girl who was written in gold... or the one who will rewrite the story entirely. * * * Contains age regression, mental health issues, graphic scenes, abuseComplete

Being the first in a Latinx family comes with more pressure and stress than usual, something Mariana is used to.

Facade Of Perfectionism
'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712Complete
