Aurora always loved the quiet corners of life-small cafΓ©s, handwritten letters, and the scent of old books. That's why she run a cozy little bookstore in town, where people come not just to buy books, but to find warmth and stories that make them feel at home.
One rainy evening, just as she closing up, he walks in-soaked, breathless, and looking completely lost.
Liam Carter-a man with a tired soul and eyes that hold a million untold stories. He's new in town, trying to escape the chaos of his old life. And somehow, your little bookstore becomes his safe place.
Day after day, he keeps coming back-sometimes to read, sometimes to talk, sometimes just to sit in silence.
Slowly, a bond forms. She recommend books, he brings you coffee. She tell him about her dreams, he listens like no one else ever has. And without even realizing it, the lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur.
But Liam has secrets. And just when she start to believe in love, his past comes knocking at her door.
Will she be the one to heal him? Or will he walk away before love has a chance to bloom?

Love is for Show
Nathan Brooks. A 23 year old college student finding his way between the walls of a rather small dry cleaners shop. He strives for the simple college life, keeping to himself and never doing more than necessary. Elias bursts through the doors one day, practically begging for help with his boss' messed up, coffee-stained shirt; and he brings a storm right in with him. Expecting to never see the pretty blond ever again, life moves on. Only weeks later they meet again with another surprise for Nathan that nearly wipes the floor right from under his feet. His high school best friend? What is going on? One thing leads to another and the lives of four very different men are suddenly becoming intertwined, chaotic and very messy. A mess much bigger than any coffee stain and one that Nathan might not be able to clean up. How ironic that he cleans other people's messes, but he can't seem to be able to do the same for himself. Part-time job turned into a hotspot of potential love and romance. How did that happen? *** - Regular/Weekly Tuesday Updates -Complete

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Complete
Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul
[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...
