She was supposed to be just his best friend.
Not his fiancée.
Not his everything.
At twenty-three, Aspen Danster has the world at her feet - CEO of her own wildly successful digital marketing firm, the quiet heir to a billion-dollar empire, and the girl nobody really knows. The media can only speculate about the mysterious, untouchable beauty who's managed to stay out of the spotlight... until now.
When her childhood best friend, Marine Captain Leonardo Anderson, wakes from a devastating accident with no memory of the last few years, he mistakes Aspen for his fiancée. And the doctors say correcting him too soon could cost him his fragile recovery.
So Aspen agrees to play along, just for a little while.
But the longer she stays by his side - fending off gossip, the media, and her own growing feelings - the harder it becomes to remember this is all supposed to be pretend.
Because somewhere between the lies and the longing, Leo's starting to believe she's his.
And Aspen is starting to wonder if she ever stopped being.
A story of friendship, heartbreak, and finding love where you least expect it.

Truth or Dare
After graduating high school, Jupiter and her two best friends move to a small beach town for college. They are free at last. Free from the soul-sucking reality of high school, free from the watchful eyes of parents, free to do whatever they please. This is the start of EVERYTHING. This is what they've been waiting for for the last four years and it's finally here. Jupiter has always been kind of an introvert, not nearly as outgoing as her friends. Noelle and Diem love Jupiter for who she is and often try to drag her out of her shell. They have known her for a long time. They have met the real her and they absolutely adore her, but Jupiter hides within herself. She is terrified to be judged, rejected, or even looked at. She is the epitome of self-consciousness, while her carefree friends ooze confidence. With the new setting, Noelle and Diem hope to teach Jupiter how to let go and live in the moment. After multiple rounds of Truth or Dare, Jupiter somehow ends up with her first boyfriend, only it's just an act, or is it? Somewhere along the way, the line between what's real and fake starts to fade. Before long she finds herself falling for this stranger she just met, this stranger she could barely stand to be around. Not only does she find herself accidentally in love, but she also starts to gain confidence and stops overthinking everything so much.
Love Or Lure?
Fictional men never lied to her. It's easy to live in fictional world. Real ones lied to her. They always did. Her father, her ex and worst of all her own best friend who knew what her heart yearns for and still plays games with it. So Isabella stayed in a fantasy world finding a way in the hearts of random billionaires in town attempting to create her own happy ending. Nothing ruins a fantasy like real feelings. And nothing tests loyalty like the best friend's hot charming older brother falling for the same woman he once ignored. In a real world where affection feels like a game of manipulation in disguise, Isabella has to think: Is it love or just another lure? A woman who loved fictional men than reality, until reality gave her a story she never saw coming. (This is the first draft. Edit will follow after I finish it.)

Heartbreak Express
🏆 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 | She ran from her wedding the day she found out the groom was expecting a baby with someone else. Now, with a broken heart and no suitcase, she's starting over in London... Two men, one new life and a second chance she never saw coming. Isabella Solène Hart was supposed to be a bride. Instead, she became a woman who walked away from betrayal, from shame, from the version of love that left her undone. London offers her nothing but silence and strangers and that's exactly what she needs until it starts to offer more. A job at a luxury PR firm, a flat that slowly becomes a home, a local café with warm coffee and warmer smiles, a neighbour with a cat named Rufus and a shopkeeper named Robert, gruff, loyal, quietly becoming the father figure she never had. But nothing shakes her more than the two men who begin to orbit her new life. Skylar, the charming café owner with kind eyes, he makes her laugh again, makes her feel again, but when it matters most... he stays silent. And Sebastian, the enigmatic CEO with ice-blue eyes and power in every breath. He shouldn't be looking at her the way he does, he shouldn't know who she is, but he does and what begins as a spark quickly threatens to set fire to the walls she's still rebuilding. Now Bella must navigate more than just a second chance, she must decide what kind of love she's ready for and whether she can open her heart again without losing herself in the process. It's a story of loss, of starting over, and the two men who force her to face what love really means. Of heartbreak turned healing, of strangers turned family. It's not just about falling in love, it's about who you become when your world shatters... and you choose to rise anyway.Complete
