"I never thought my life could change with a simple Giveaway ."
Ariana Dias is just a regular 16-year-old girl from a small town, dreaming quietly about a world she'll never touch - red carpets, glowing LA lights, the lives of the influencers she secretly admires. One night, on a whim, she enters a giveaway hosted by the Glow House, not thinking much of it. After all, people like her don't win things like that.
Until she does.
Suddenly, Ariana is flying to Los Angeles to attend the Glow House Premier Party - surrounded by fame, cameras, and the people she's only ever seen through a screen. Including Cesar Mendoza, the effortlessly charming heartthrob dating Embreigh Courtlyn - the girl everyone wants to be. But behind the glow, nothing is ever as perfect as it seems.

The Soulmate System
[ A VERY Slow-Burn, LGBT+ Soulmates Romance ] Dylan Matthews never wants to meet his Soulmate. So, when the inevitable finally happens, he expects to continue his life of obscurity, alone. Instead, he gets an awkward waltz of self-reflection, resistance, and lots of sarcasm. And hugs. ~ In a world with Soulmates, Dylan Matthews does not share the rose-coloured glasses everyone else does; he never wants to meet his Soulmate. Mercilessly mocked for his Glow anyway, he's content with his life of pushing people away, wishing he could be a writer, and keeping his head low at his job as a website coder. The problem: he doesn't get to decide if they meet or not, so it becomes a matter of waiting so he can outright reject them. One work trip and a blackout later, Dylan cannot escape his Soulmate no matter how far he runs; he works with them. He's ready to push them away, but can't. Something inside him, along with the dreaded Glow Feeling, wants to see this crash and burn on its own. Yet mistake after mistake, Dylan finds himself in an awkward waltz with someone just as broken as he is. Will Dylan push his Soulmate away, or will the New Soulmates heal their pasts? ~ "The Soulmate System" is the set of 31 combined rules, sub-rules, and overarching themes that determine who, how you will find, and live with, your Soulmate, starting with a simple coloured Glow from your chest... ~ All rights reserved.

The stars flickered above us. "I like you, Noella," Mason said suddenly, voice low, careful. My heart stuttered. "I like you so much." I swallowed hard. "There's... there's a difference between a want and a need." He turned his head, eyes narrowing slightly. "What do you mean?" "People say they want someone," I whispered, staring up at the stars. "But a want is fleeting. Temporary. A craving. A need is something you can't live without. And I don't know which one I am to you, Mason. I don't know if I want to be anyone's need." Silence stretched. My chest tightened. Then he rolled onto his side, facing me fully. His voice was steady. "I love you, princess." ____ She was invisible. He was everyone's favorite. Noella Collins has spent her life hiding in plain sight-quiet, overlooked, and trapped in the noise of her own thoughts. Mason Montgomery? He's the golden boy with the kind of smile that makes the world stop spinning. They were never supposed to cross paths. But when his eyes find hers, something shifts. For the first time, she isn't just there-she's seen. The invisible girl. The golden boy. One look-and everything changes. Noella never believed in love stories. Mason never expected to fall for one. She's quiet storms and late-night thoughts. He's sunlight and easy laughter. And when their worlds collide, It isn't chaos- It's everything love was meant to be. ____ Best rankings: #1 unpopular (22/12/2025) #1 mentalproblems (24/12/2025) #9 hotboys (21/12/2025) #2 therapy (25/12/2025) #9 selflove (24/12/2025) #3 teenlove (28/12/2025) #1 healing (01/01/2026)
