[Nigerian-UK themed novel]

An upcoming writer must endure the pain in his heart while trying to survive the cruelty of the creative writing industry, as he thrives to succeed and (not) fall in love with the hot dancer crashing into his world. 

                                                              *******
Manuel, a naive teenager who has felt nothing else but the downside of all relationships, decides to pursue his dreams and become a published writer. 

He accepts a scholarship to London Writers Institute, and starts on his journey to achieving his dream, but a Dancer follows and rocks his world in more ways than one. 

He falls for the Dancer, but he finds it hard to follow his heart as that Dancer might just be the inspiration he need to write a bestseller or the reason why his circle of pain continues.

Everything he did was for me. And everything I did was for him. I broke his heart. A heart I cherished. A heart he entrusted me with. A heart he loved me with. This was the last place I thought I'd see him. This was the last way I thought we'd meet again. I don't think I can walk away a second time. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Important My books are written explicitly for a MATURE AUDIENCE 18 YEARS AND OLDER.

Reflection | PJM by kittyxo7

Your body unexpectedly slams into his, one leg wrapped around his waist. His hand grips your thigh and you're both panting, lips parted and merely an eyelash's length from each other's faces. You look deeply into his eyes for the first time, seeing their intensity with crystal clear clarity... This isn't part of the choreo you've been practicing. Your trembling hands are on either side of his thick neck. Even his breath is sweet. Should you taste it? Synopsis: Y/N enrolls in a dance school to pursue her dreams of becoming a professional dancer. However, she struggles to love herself, barely able to look at her own reflection without disgust. When she meets her mentor, she becomes awakened by his attention. Can his love lead her to finally love herself too? - This is my first published work, so please be patient, supportive, leave comments, and VOTE! xo ⚠️ Smut chapters are denoted with an asterisk (*) ⚠️Disclaimer: this book addresses sensitive topics like eating disorder, anxiety, depression. - 1K reads: 08/18/21 5K reads: 01/01/22 10K reads: 03/22/22 15K reads: 05/08/22 20K reads: 08/08/22 25K reads: 12/13/22 - #1 btssmut, jiminsmut, pjm #2 jimin #3 btsjimin #4 ot7 #9 jiminxreader

But being a big girl she has faced harsh criticism and cruel words from childhood classmate and dance instructors which put her off dance as a career. Instead Aya embarks on a career in interior design which she is brilliant at and lands herself an exclusive internship at Blue Box Interiors. This is her dream employer but some nasty classmates are part of the programme too and Aya's dream quickly turns into a nightmare. After weeks of misery and paper pushing, Aya gets the opportunity to work in the field far far away from her tormentors which she grabs with both hands. Aya gets deployed to Tapped Out Dance Studio and it isn't until she meets Raphael Romero, the dashing owner of the studio during the renovation that her passion for dance is reignited and her life is spiced up for the better...or so we hope.
