Angelie Gonzales has her life planned-co-running a thriving pastry shop, engaged to a kind, dependable surgeon, and quite ready to settle down. But everything tilts the moment she walks into a cozy café in Anaheim and finds Lira Talvik again-the woman she never truly stopped loving.
Years have changed them. Angelie's wearing a ring now. Lira owns the café and hides a tenderness behind her steady calm. Both carry the weight of what they lost-and what they might still want, even if it's too late.
Set between sunlit cafés and ocean-kissed shores, Somewhere, Still You is a slow-burning love story of missed chances, stolen moments, sacrifices, and the kind of love that waits-quietly, patiently, until you're ready to choose it.

Can You Restrain Yourself? [GxB] ⚤
A sprained ankle. A physical therapy clinic. And the unexpected return, in Lovi's life, of a former handball teammate turned sports doctor. Omaè thought he'd left college - and especially her - far behind. But when their paths cross again, a half-buried past comes rushing back: silences, unspoken words, and that maddening feeling they could have saved each other. Between rehab sessions, team practices, and walks in the forest, a whole new story of recovery begins - physical, emotional, and maybe something more. And with it, a haunting question: can you love without breaking what you're trying to heal? A sharp, funny romance, caught between old wounds and present temptations.
