"He loved me in all the ways I never knew I needed... and left before I could love him back."
Lislie Alcantara is the picture of perfection, the eldest daughter, the top student, and the girl who never lets her guard down. Behind her strong facade lies a fragile heart gasping for air, both literally and figuratively. With asthma and self-imposed pressure suffocating her, Lislie only ever breathes freely beside one person.
Austin Mendoza.
Her childhood best friend.
The only child who loved him deeply.
The boy who knew how to speak all five languages of love just for her.
As years go by, their bond deepens into something almost romantic but never spoken aloud. Not out of fear, but out of comfort in the unspoken. Until one rainy night takes everything away.
Now, Lislie must navigate the storm of grief, guilt, and a love story cut short while learning to heal, even if he's no longer there to hold her hand.
Sometimes, the greatest love stories are the ones that never had a chance to be told.

LOVING, ANNOYINGLY
Aarav was never meant to run away. He just wanted to prove a point-to make his family realize that he wasn't invisible, that he mattered. But in his reckless escape, he stumbled upon something far greater than freedom. He found Meera. A girl, wounded and alone, hiding in the shadows of a ship bound for nowhere. She had seen the worst of humanity, and love? Love was never in her plans. But fate had other ideas. From strangers to reluctant allies, from survival partners to something more-Aarav and Meera built a life neither of them had expected. He, a boy who loved too much. She, a girl who never wanted love at all. Through teasing fights, stubborn silences, and quiet moments of healing, they grew together. Aarav, ever the dramatic, clingy mess of a man, spent years pestering Meera for affection. And Meera? Well, she spent years pretending she didn't care. Until one day, she did. Until one day, she said it. A story of found family, healing, and the most unlikely kind of love-one that grows, slowly, stubbornly, and beautifully.Complete

Aarav never believed a random Instagram group chat could change his life - until Nina. What began as late-night banter turned into secret conversations, stolen confessions, and a bond neither of them expected. But Nina's world isn't simple.

Aarav becomes the only one who knows both. When fate brings them to the same college, their connection only intensifies. From whispered calls to midnight sneak-ins at his flat, from laughter in crowded classrooms to tears behind locked doors, their love becomes an intoxicating mix of chaos and comfort. They fight, they break, they heal - but above all, they choose each other, again and again. This is not just a story of love; it's a story of freedom found in another soul, of rebellion dressed as romance, of secrets heavy enough to break but beautiful enough to hold. In a world that wants them apart, Aarav and Nina learn that the most unforgettable love is the one you're willing to risk everything for.Complete
