Life is Simple.
That's the one motto Andrea Miller has been living with her all life.
"Life is not complicated... people make it complicated" she always said.
Finish her degree, get a job and become independent So, she has to never depend on someone else for her own needs, for her own life.
And she did.
She was happy and proud of the world she carved for herself, own apartment, a job she's extremely good at, money, friends. She had everything she wished for.
Love....Not so much.
"Boyfriends and love is all good and everything but when it becomes your biggest weakness then you should cut your ties and move on because that weakness will only leave you broken and miserable" she believed.
She believed in love but she also believed in reality.
She always thought she knew what she wanted.
But....what if even we don't know what we want?
What if all she has to do is take a chance?
What if all she needed was a miserable day, bad luck and coffee...
When Andrea falls in madness called life. Her "perfect life" is not so perfect anymore and she finally realises what she always knew.
A turmoil of emotions, friendships, Love, Betrayal and whole lot of "Complications" annihilating Andrea's "perfect life" she always believed in and tossing her into an unpredictable craziness filled with overwhelmed feelings that's free and mandatory with the package called "life".

He tilts his head back over the back of his chair in a lazy laid back way, his thumb and fingers now holding his chin, as he watches me leave, still with a small smile on his face. "I won't break your heart." I turn around and say lightly, jokingly, just to tease him. His smile fades. "You won't...because you can't break what's already broken."

Reignite
Dani Trauma has a way of reshaping you. I lost pieces of myself I wasn't sure I could ever get back - the bright spark of who I once was replaced by a duller version that only knew how to survive. Trust felt like a distant memory, and life, instead of something to be lived, became something to endure. But then, against all odds, I found myself falling for my boss - literally. Beneath his grumpy exterior was a man I couldn't quite figure out, and slowly, the embers of my spirit began to reignite. Just as I thought I could finally begin living again, my past resurfaced, threatening to tear apart everything I had worked so hard to rebuild. Now, I stand at a crossroads. Will I finally grasp the chance for a happily-ever-after, or will the flames of my past consume me once more? Dean In a world steeped in high expectations and cloaked in distrust, I rose to become a highly successful CEO. Through the years, I quickly learned that most interactions were transactional, often driven by a need for something from me. When I dared to embrace love, it was a revelation wrapped in a painful lesson: love exposes you to vulnerability, making you susceptible to manipulation. That was precisely the fate I encountered, leading me to vow never to find myself in that position again. Years later, fate thrusts me into a similar predicament. My new assistant stumbled into my life - and into my heart - when I least expected it. She was hiding just as much as I was, but with every conversation, every smile, every spark of her defiant spirit, she dismantled the walls I'd spent years building around myself. Now, I stand at another crossroads. Do I risk everything I've tirelessly worked for, betting on the possibility of a happily-ever-after? Or do I retreat, knowing all too well the pain that can follow love's gamble?Complete

To Capture A Heart ✔
*She wasn't looking for love - just snacks and a nap. But then he smiled...* ~True love? Unexpected. Emotional growth? Unwanted. Drama? Inevitable.~ Veronica D'Costa isn't exactly the main character type just - a regular teen: emotionally avoidant, chronically sarcastic, and fully committed to winging her way through life, with her loyal (and mildly chaotic) friend group. One night. One betrayal. That changed everything. Now Veronica's pretending, deflecting, and power-napping her way through emotions. But when a certain boy - golden-eyed, infuriatingly kind, and way too observant - starts asking the right questions, she'll have to do the one thing she's avoided all year: feel. Because surviving senior year means more than just acing math or mastering beer pong - it means facing what broke her, before she lets it define her. She's growing up. She's falling in love. And she might just be the main character after all. Messy, meaningful, and mildly chaotic - this is the year everything changes. Even her. P.S.- This isn't a fairy tale. It's a slightly sarcastic coming-of-age crisis.Complete
Unlasting
Lost to the true definition of love, Brie meets Adrian, a man daring enough to love her though he knows it may not end well. She falls hard for him, her reality of love far greater than her fantasies, but when a familiar pain resurfaces in paradise, and she feels like she may be walking down memory lane, will she have it in her to fight? Or is the fear of going through anything that resembles her childhood greater than her dream to finally find love? Love meets reality in this epic novel. *** "Excuse me, you seem lost in thought. Did you want to buy something or do I need to direct you home again?" "What?" She laughs, "It was a joke, Jeez. The last time you were in here you seemed like you had a sense of humor. Where'd that go?" "I have this neighbor who basically sucks the life and humor out of people. Unfortunately, I am a recent victim." "I know how that feels, trust me. I have one in my life too." "Anyway, what can I do for you Mr. ..." "Please call me Adrian." "Okay Adrian, what can I do for you today?" "Actually, I was passing by, and I thought I should say thank you for the other day." "That's nice, but you didn't have to. I didn't really do anything a human being wouldn't." "Hey, don't sell yourself short. You did a lot for me. If you didn't save my ass, I may have been a missing person by now, or worse that guy on the news they keep saying is nowhere to be found." "How can I argue when you mentioned the guy on the news. The news never lies, and I'm sure you don't either. You're right, I should be thanked for saving a life." "Not just A life, but many lives. Think of my poor mother and my friends and family. How would they live without me, huh?" "You're right, I saved a generation that day." We're both laughing very hard and it feels just right. Talking to her was easy.Complete
