Does she have right kind of shoes? Will she make any friends?--when she suddenly meets someone amazing: The book dragon, who lives in the basement of the New York Public Library. He's long and scaly and a bit scary, and he needs her as much as she needs him.

Back For You ✔︎
❝ Maybe I was meant to come back for you. ❞ We're all used to hearing the typical stories of two people falling in love - they get through life together and wind up with a happy ending. There are endless books, movies, and even real life stories about those love stories. But what about the ones that don't last? What about the stories about two people finding each other and falling head over heels, but they weren't meant to be? Because not everyone who falls in love end up together. Reality isn't always so good, and fair, to everyone. Not every ending is a clichè fairytale ending. Not everyone is that lucky. Ariel Winter and Aiden Maddon are one of the unlucky ones. • • • 「 A UNIVERSITY ROMANCE 」 「 COMPLETE 」 DISCLAIMER: This is the first book I wrote after five years of not writing, so it's not my best work. I've grown and learned since then so this story has lots of flaws. If you are looking for better writing, check out my newer books!Complete
