Cassidy Evans never imagined losing it all in a single night - her dreams shattered, her spotlight gone, and her confidence shattered. Then, in the smoky haze of a dive bar, she meets Colton Steele: Major League Baseball's golden boy. One impulsive Vegas wedding later, they strike a wild deal - thirty days to prove if fate got it right.⁣
⁣
Neither of them expects to fall.⁣
⁣
But when a tragic car accident steals Colton's sight, their world crumbles. Grief, stubborn pride, and fear build walls between them - walls that seem impossible to tear down. Cassidy retreats to the quiet comfort of her Texas hometown, brokenhearted, while Colton vanishes into the misty solitude of the Pacific Northwest.⁣
⁣
Seven months pass. Then fate pulls them back together. She's ready to fight for the love they barely had a chance to live. He's convinced he's not worthy.⁣
⁣
Caught between memories, silence, and fragile hope, Cassidy and Colton face the ultimate question: Was their whirlwind romance just a reckless detour... or the true path all along?⁣

🌊✨When We Fell Into Shadow✨🌊 by bunnyhoopp

Lina moves to a sleepy seaside town to escape the noise of the past and focus on her photography dreams. She doesn't expect to find Ethan: the charming, soft-spoken bookstore owner with ocean eyes and a laugh that feels like home. They fall in love between dusty pages, midnight coffees, and salt-scented winds. It's the kind of slow-burn romance that makes Lina believe, for the first time in a long time, that maybe she's allowed to be happy. But Ethan is hiding something. A past tangled with secrets and a crime that changed Lina's family forever. A past he never intended for her to discover, because it might cost him the only person who has ever made him feel worth saving. When Lina uncovers the truth, everything shatters. Was it ever real, or was she falling for the boy who destroyed everything she loved? Now, she must decide: can love survive the shadows, or will the past drown them both? 💔 A story of love, betrayal, and forgiveness. Perfect for fans of slow-burn romance with a dark, emotional twist that will keep you flipping pages late into the night. #SlowBurn #HiddenPast #BookstoreBoy #CoastalRomance #SecretsAndLies #Emotional

Losing the love of my life taught me that inactions have consequences. My new bookkeeping job teaches me that numbers don't lie, but people do. Sharing yoga with others is my refuge from the darkness pulling me to stay home. A ginormous pro football player barging into my classes isn't in my rehab plan. Worse, it's the cocky jerk who treats me like I'm too insignificant to remember. If only I could say the same. Sam Pearson is Houston's golden, champion-winning quarterback. He's arrogant, rude, and reckless. His agent, my brother, thinks I can rehabilitate his injured shoulder and spiraling ego to achieve a long-term contract. I think Sam needs a reality smack in his handsome face. I should hate his rebellious distractions, but I can't stop challenging him out of his comfort zone. After losing most of myself along with my other half, Sam's woken me up inside. He challenges me, irritatingly, which is exciting and scary. He's dangerously close to cracking open my closed-off heart, revealing the secrets holding me back. And yet, he might also be the second chance at love I thought I didn't deserve. A Wattpad Creator story. Mature content - 18+ Story is complete! #1 - quarterback, yoga, charity

Colton's Miracle ✔️ (Moved To Inkitt) by fanoshkaflippo

Officially a Wattpad Creator! This book is my lucky charm. Colton has grown up knowing nothing but anger, hatred, and pain. His past doesn't allow him to enjoy life like others do. Instead, he paints a glare on his face that scares most people away. And then suddenly, a petite little red head with freckles and a radiant smile shoves her way into his life, changing every concept he thought he knew and breaks every rule he thought he needed. With every encounter, the ice around Colton's heart melts until his heart is free to beat as loudly as it can, just for Lily. With a past even darker than Colton's, Lillian chooses her armor to be a smile. She has so many reasons to succumb to the darkness that fills her once innocent heart, but she focuses on enjoying the new life she just started. Being the new girl means she's free to pretend that she's just like everyone else, normal. And when she meets the rude and grumpy Colton, she can't help but notice how alike they actually are. Slowly, the two broken souls begin to help each other heal, and together, they start to learn what it's like to be loved, unaware that the ghosts of the past are still hovering in the shadows. **Topics mentioned in this story could be triggering, such as: Physical Abuse, and Sexual Harrassment. **There will be mature content (Explicit Scenes and Swearing). **All photos used are not mine and are found for public use. ** This is a work of fiction.
