Nora, a 26-year-old dreamer living in the bustling heart of Paris, feels trapped in the confines of her predictable life. Stuck in a rut with unfulfilled dreams and job frustrations, her only solace is her childhood crush-Zac Efron, the beacon of hope that lights her way.

One fateful day, a serendipitous find at a flea market-a worn leather notebook, an inkwell, and a feather pen-sparks a journey that will change her life forever. The old vendor's cryptic claim that the notebook is a "dream book" seems too fantastical to be true, but with nothing left to lose, Nora dares to dream big. 

As she pens her deepest wish-to meet Zac Efron and share with him how he has inspired her-she's stunned to discover that her wish comes true overnight. Their day together in Byron Bay is a whirlwind of magic, connection, and unexpected romance. But as their worlds collide, Nora must navigate the fine line between dreams and reality, and the true power of believing in the impossible.

In *Beyond the Notebook*, journey with Nora as she discovers that sometimes, the most extraordinary magic lies in the courage to dream and the heart to embrace what follows.

Vanished - A Guardian Story by morganvela921
1 part Complete Mature
Belynda is about to reach her eighteenth birthday... Desperately she seeks a normal life-an escape from the dreams that haunt her. She feels trapped in a world where supernatural beings exist only in books and television, yet her mind tells her otherwise. Tired of society's labels proclaiming her mentally unstable, she seeks to find answers to her dreams. Dreams of a life that is not her own. A life she feels bound to and calls out to her. Driven by the possibility of a supernatural world, Belynda uncovers hidden proof that goes beyond time and reason. Evidence that her life is bound to Isabel's in unimaginable ways. Isabel is a young girl who struggled in her time against the guardianship rules, a secret society created centuries ago by the fates to control the gates to other realms. Isabel, born to inherit a sit on the council, faces the consequences of her actions after falling in love with an immortal and breaking one of the most sacred rules. A Dragon. A fire-bound creature, they call him, but Drake is more than that. He is the heir to Druleska, the fire realm. Bound by duty and honor, he must accept the punishment the guardianship dictates for loving Isabel. The price, being vanished to Xelraa, the dark realm. Belynda's actions will set their lives in motion and change the course of their destiny. Will she expose the mysteries that keep her awake? Will she cross time and reason to find the love of a life she once knew?

- book one of wisteria hearts (six books are published) - two souls don't just find each other by pure, sweet, simple accident. it's serendipity. Taylor Swift, some would say, was one of the biggest celebrities out there. It's funny, given this fact, how someone that has spent their entire life from sixteen, living under a spotlight, can be in an abusive relationship for three years, and no one notices. Not a single person. They don't see the hands that wander her body in the middle of the eternal night or the bruises on her cheeks from a blow that she didn't deserve. Not a single person saw her pain. Until she met Joe Alwyn, on a Wednesday, at a cafe. The whirlwind of memories from the Met Gala, when she'd first laid eyes on him, whilst in the arms of another. Those ocean eyes that had followed her around the dance floor, as he stood to the side. She didn't know that Joe remembered that moment when they'd first met. But he'd been watching - he couldn't stop watching. She was mesmerising. And she'd had that sparkle in her eyes, the first thing he'd noticed about her. But when he saw her in that cafe, that sparkle was nowhere to be seen, and a bruise had taken its place. They didn't know, then, that the Poets had written their love in the stars. - a Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn au - This is set some time after reputation, after the Met Gala. A lot of songs mentioned may not be in the correct order (for example, writing a rough version of cardigan before lover has even been written) but is intentional. - trigger warning for: eating disorders, sexual assault, self harm, abusive relationships -

In the bustling heart of Marrakesh, beneath the sweltering Moroccan sun, Nora Zaouit stood on the set of her latest film, Desert Dreams. Surrounded by the vibrant colors of the market and the sounds of bustling life, she felt a surge of fulfillment as she directed the final scene. This film was more than just a project; it was a testament to her passion for storytelling and her dedication to her craft. As the cameras rolled and actors delivered their lines with precision, Nora's mind drifted back to a pivotal moment in her childhood-the day she first watched High School Musical. Sitting wide-eyed in front of the television, she was mesmerized by the charisma and talent of Zac Efron. In that moment, a spark ignited within her-a dream to create stories that would touch hearts and inspire others, much like Zac had inspired her. Years passed, and Nora's determination never wavered. From Marrakesh to the bustling streets of Hollywood, she carved a path for herself in the competitive world of filmmaking. Every film she directed was a testament to her love for the art and her relentless pursuit of excellence. Now, as she stood on the brink of a new chapter in her life, an email notification pulled her from her reverie-a golden opportunity that would intertwine her destiny with that of her childhood idol. The invitation to the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award gala, to pay tribute to Zac Efron, was not just an honor; it was a chance to express her gratitude for the man who had inspired her journey. Little did she know, this gala would not only be a celebration of Zac Efron's achievements but also the beginning of a love story she never saw coming-a tribute to love in its most unexpected form.
