When a grumpy billionaire fake dates a sunshine barista to understand how love works, they are forced to face the monsters of their past and live through a swoonworthy romance filled with Taylor Swift song references.

- - -

When the pandemic causes her to lose her job as a background vocalist, Priyankha takes up a temporary job as a barista to make ends meet. She decides to write her own songs to create a new identity for herself as a singer but soon realizes that she has lived a very sheltered life and has nothing to write about.

Oliver has always been a workaholic, too absorbed in files and figures. But when his fiancée dumps him and calls him boring to his face, it dawns on him that he was always so lost in his work that he hardly ever tried to live life or make worthwhile memories.

She needs a trauma to write songs about. He needs memories to live for. And when Taylor Swift announces the release of Red (Taylor's Version) within 5 months, they both need a heartbreaking relationship to cry about when the album drops.

So it goes... They sign up for a time-bound contract where they pretend to be in love only to break up one week before the album releases. They aren't lovers and theirs isn't even a real relationship. So what's the invisible string tying them together? It's not a love story but you can call it what you want.

When Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are thrust into a high-profile PR relationship, they agree to keep things simple: no romance, no strings attached, just two famous people looking to boost their images in the public eye. The media is buzzing with their unlikely pairing, but behind the scenes, Taylor and Travis draw up a clear agreement-they'll keep things casual, enjoy each other's company, and maintain the illusion of a perfect couple without getting emotionally invested. As they navigate the world of flashing cameras and public appearances, they grow closer in ways neither of them expected. What starts as a mutual understanding of convenience and fun soon blurs into something more complicated. Their arrangement is simple: friends with benefits, no romantic expectations. But the chemistry between them is undeniable, and soon they're sharing more than just fleeting moments-they start opening up about their personal lives, their fears, and their dreams. Yet, they're determined to stick to the plan: no love, no strings. Then, a sudden twist changes everything. Taylor discovers she's pregnant. Now, what was supposed to be a temporary and carefree arrangement turns into an unplanned and life-altering situation. With the world watching their every move, Taylor and Travis are faced with the realities of a pregnancy neither of them anticipated. The media is relentless, and their private lives are under constant scrutiny. As they try to navigate the unexpected changes, their agreement begins to unravel, and they're forced to question their initial terms.

Read with risk and get ready for an emotional suspense thriller journey with tissue boxes [Started on 2020, Rewritten and Republished on 2024] "I married you, but that doesn't mean you can control my life," he growled in anger. I flinched at his harsh voice, tears forming in my eyes. "For the world, you will be my wife, but in reality, you are nothing to me." My last hope of mending this relationship shattered into pieces. "Listen very carefully: never dare to raise your voice at me. Understood?" I nodded slowly. "And only answer me if I ask you something. Is that clear?" His tone was dangerously low. Feeling scared, I nodded without looking at him. "Look at me when I'm talking to you." He put his finger under my chin and raised my head. His eyes were full of arrogance and cruelty. My vision blurred with each passing second. His grip on my chin was strong and painful. "Now answer," he ordered in a husky voice. "Ye-Yes," I replied in my shaky voice. ☆_____☆ A girl who believes in true love and soulmates. A boy who has lost his faith in love and soulmates. He is fire. She is ice.

DAYLIGHT - A Tayvis-inspired love story by sasi-tv-99
61 parts Ongoing Mature
In a billionaire superstar's world, where genuine connections must be untangled from the brightness of spotlights and the shadows of fame, Taylor's heart was guarded stronger than ever, yet brimming with light and kindness, but also quiet sadness -like a summer meadow under a sky full of stars, like midnight rain drenching the earth. Meanwhile, Travis' heart was open and steady - like a quiet ocean of warmth, unshaken by storms, like sunshine reflecting on a clear, blue ocean. It was the kind of love she hadn't dared to trust, until now. Their first connection - a bold, slightly silly gesture involving a friendship bracelet with his phone number woven into the beads - was sweeter than fiction, charming and just a little awkward. Though it never reached her that night, his attempt to get her attention marked the start of something extraordinary, neither of them would have expected. Like ever. Fate's invisible strings pulled them closer, unraveling the barriers between their worlds. Love bloomed softly at first, like the golden rays of dawn peeking through the night, until it shone with the golden promise of something lasting - like daylight -, and suddenly everything had changed. But the road to daylight wasn't without its shadows. Fame, fear, and the weight of two very different worlds stood between them. Yet with every step, love found its way, glowing brighter than they'd ever dreamed. But in a world of spotlighted chaos and hidden fears, will this love be enough to light up their way? ***** WARNING: My stories are cheesy, dramatic, and made out of romance. I love exploring how people get to know each other and fall in love (and this will take a while!), I adore the shipping, the journey to connection, and the way characters interact, including all the nuances of their relationships and the smut - everything about it! If that's not your cup of tea, then "DAYLIGHT" might not be for you.
