Elise Vallerie Sinclair was born without a heart-not in the literal sense, but in the way that mattered. Heiress to a billion-dollar biotech empire, she had everything-private islands, luxury cars, and a name feared in elite circles. But emotions? Love? Empathy? Those were foreign concepts to her, mere data points in a world she controlled with logic and power.

Enter Ava Delacroix, an artistic prodigy and the only daughter of an old-money dynasty, whose wealth was measured not just in billions but in influence. A woman who wore her emotions like designer couture-bold, unapologetic, and breathtaking. When fate (or the meddling hands of their high-society families) brings them together, Ava is captivated by Elise's cold indifference, while Elise is... intrigued. Ava is unlike anyone she's ever met, challenging her, pushing her, making her question if she was truly incapable of feeling-or if she had merely been too afraid to try.

As their worlds of money, power, and deception collide, Elise finds herself on the edge of something dangerous-something no amount of wealth can control. But can someone born without a heart ever learn to love? Or will Elise's cold, calculated world destroy the only person who ever made her feel alive?

A tale of power, passion, and the kind of love that money can't buy, Born Without a Heart is a sapphic billionaire romance that proves even the coldest hearts can melt-if only for the right person.Todos os Direitos Reservados

BEYOND, de feufeu15

He'd gone beyond his player ways for her. She'd grown beyond her traumatic past for him. Together, their love was beyond. Until one fatal accident. __________ When she loses the love of her life in a car crash, Althea has nothing left in California. So mourning and broken, she follows Asher's last wish: moving to New York and realizing her dream of becoming a fashion designer. But what happens when, three years later, she comes back home to get closure before getting promoted and married, and she finds her late boyfriend very much alive and paralyzed in a wheelchair? Asher would have never expected to see Althea again in his lifetime. He gave up on her, with his hope of walking again, long ago. And yet, here she is, the woman who's always had the power to shake his certainties, standing in front of him and bringing more than his heart out of numbness. With her, the half-man he's been for the past three years could be whole again and finally touch hope. If his pride doesn't stand in the way. If she lets her guard down again, because he isn't the only one who got wounded in this accident, and the ring on her finger isn't the only thing that has changed about the colorful girl he knew. Can their love go beyond lies, disability, ghosts of the past, new engagements, and all the opposite forces tearing them apart? __________ Featured in Wattpad Romance Head Over Heels' reading list in November 2023.

The Starlight Pact, de chailatte24

In this world, humans live unaware of the existence of magic, but some possess latent abilities-like the ability to manipulate elements. These people are born into powerful families that control magic, and each family is bound by an ancient pact made long ago, a pact that prohibits their magical powers from being used outside of their realms. However, there is one loophole: the rarest of "starlight-born" individuals can create a link between realms, and these people are born once every century. Our protagonist, Lyra, is a young woman who has grown up in a family with no magical bloodline. She's spent most of her life feeling like an outsider, knowing her family is poor and ordinary, while others live in splendor thanks to their magical heritage. One night, after a strange celestial event, she begins to develop strange abilities-powers that seem to transcend the natural world. Meanwhile, Dorian, the mysterious heir to the Fire Realm, comes into her life. He's seen the prophecy of the Starlight Pact-the rare individual who can bridge the gap between the realms-and believes Lyra is the one destined to reunite the fractured magic. But there's a catch: the pact is tied to love, and the connection between them is not just magical-it's romantic. As their bond grows, they uncover a dark conspiracy within the magical families. Some believe the pact should never be fulfilled, fearing it will destroy the delicate balance between realms. Now, Lyra and Dorian must navigate their budding romance, with trust, betrayal, and danger closing in from every side. The fate of their worlds rests on whether their love can transcend the boundaries between magic and reality.

Heartstorms series ; Book 1: Hiding Your Heart , de AsherCronov

He wants her, no matter how tightly she's locked her heart away. Leopold Sword doesn't need much in life-he's got wealth, power, a soccer captain's jersey, and the title of Brave Lions Academy's king pinned to his chest. He rules the halls with ease, balancing being the elite golden boy with a quiet discipline that keeps his crown firmly in place. But when a stray soccer shoe almost takes out a blonde scholarship student, Leo's world tilts. Ava Carper isn't like the other girls clawing for his attention. She's got walls made of fucking steel, eyes sharp enough to cut him, and a walk that screams, Don't even try. Challenge accepted. Ava Carper was built for survival, not romance. She's got enough to deal with-kicking ass in med school, keeping her overprotective twin brother Alex off her back, and nursing a heart freshly shattered by the boy who was supposed to be her forever. Spoiler: He wasn't. Now, Ava doesn't have time for distractions, and especially not for someone like Leopold Sword-irritatingly handsome, shamelessly arrogant, and way too dangerous for her already bruised soul. But Leo's not the type to give up. Not on the pitch, not in life, and especially not on her. She can shove him away, snap at him, even try to block him out entirely, but it's too late. She's his-whether she likes it or not. Leo will do whatever it takes to win Ava's trust, even if it means selling his soul to the devil. And if she's got demons in her heart? Well, he's ready to fucking exorcise them. "I'm not looking for a hero." "Good. I'm not here to save you. I'm here to ruin you-in the best fucking way possible."

feelings in the dark, de ogclark20

In the kingdom of Volturn, where alliances are forged through bloodlines and ambition, Prince Cid Volturn-the Cold Prince-has always stood apart. Born of the third queen and hardened by loss, Cid rejects the court's demands for a political marriage, refusing to chain his fate to hollow vows. To him, love is a weakness, and duty is a cage. But fate often defies even the coldest heart. During an unremarkable ride through the lower city, Cid's gaze falls upon a slave girl on the auction block. Lyra-pale as moonlight, with silver hair matted by dust and eyes like fractured starlight. Fierce, defiant, and drowning in sorrow. Without a second thought, Cid outbids the crowd, paying an outrageous price for a girl whose worth only he seems to recognize. Back at the palace, Lyra expects cruelty or indifference, but instead finds freedom in the most unlikely place: the heart of a prince who claims he seeks no love, only loyalty. When the king demands Cid marry for political gain, Cid makes an even bolder move-offering Lyra not servitude, but marriage. "You are the only soul in this court untouched by ambition," Cid tells her. "If I must marry, let it be to someone who understands the cost of chains." Bound by defiance and trust, they challenge the court's expectations and the shadows that seek to tear them apart. Yet, as Lyra's past resurfaces and Cid's enemies close in, they must decide if love, fragile and unspoken, is enough to withstand a kingdom built on ice and betrayal. For in the coldest heart, even the smallest flame can spark a revolution.

Donovan, de EternalAsylum

The Withered Rose, de lantianshengyu

Lin Ziqi, a woman in her forties, is a dedicated wife and mother, having always adhered to the expectations laid out by her parents and husband. She married the man they chose for her, built a life around him and their children, and worked tirelessly to uphold the values of loyalty and obedience. However, her sacrifices go unappreciated. Her husband has a mistress, and in a brutal turn of events, it is her own son who, manipulated by this mistress, murders her. In her final moments, as she takes her last breath, Lin Ziqi's only regret is the life she could have had if she had chosen the boy from her past-the one who had waited for her, hour after hour, after high school, with a single withered rose in his hand. She wonders what her life might have been like if she had chosen to be loved, rather than loyal. When she dies, the world changes. Lin Ziqi wakes up. She is no longer a forty-year-old woman bound by regret. Instead, she is back in high school, the very place where her journey had once begun. Her best friend calls her attention to the present as the teacher asks her to answer a trigonometry question. Lin Ziqi's heart races. She is *reborn*. The realization hits her like a wave-the chance to rewrite her story, to make different choices. As she walks out of the school building, her gaze lands on him-the quiet boy who waited for her, holding that same withered rose in his hand. Lin Ziqi smiles softly to herself and approaches him. This time, she accepts the rose without hesitation, placing a kiss on his right cheek. The boy, taken by surprise, blushes but smiles in return. The world feels different now, a world where the past cannot hold her back.

Painted In Light, de UniQueLyZ

At twenty-seven, Aurora Elise Navarro has spent her life on the sidelines, tethered to the confines of a rare disease known as Still's Syndrome, a condition that limits her mobility and causes chronic pain. Aurora's world is small but richly layered-she spends her days painting dreamy landscapes inspired by places she's never seen, content to live vicariously through her art. But deep down, she aches for something more, something she believes she can never have: a life filled with passion, adventure, and love. Enter Lucas Adrian West, a thirty-two-year-old travel photographer whose own life is marked by a shadow he cannot escape. Still mourning the loss of his fiancée three years earlier, Lucas travels the globe to avoid confronting the loneliness that follows him wherever he goes. When Lucas stumbles upon Aurora's paintings in a small gallery in their shared hometown of Port Echo, he feels an inexplicable pull toward the artist behind them. What begins as an unlikely friendship blossoms into a transformative love story, but it is not without its challenges. Aurora must learn to trust that her illness doesn't define her worth, and Lucas must find the courage to embrace a future that doesn't include his past. Together, they embark on a journey to the French Riviera, where Aurora's paintings come to life, and both learn what it truly means to heal and let love in.

These three friends are about to learn about a side of World War Two that never made the history books. ***I can't take credit for the artwork, it's called A BREAK IN REALITY and it's by the AMAZINGLY talented Xenobyte on deviantart.
