Sometimes love isn't the easy choice-it's the brave one.
Carina Wright was born into a legacy, at the top of her class, heir to a powerful business empire, and burdened with expectations she never asked for. Simoné Acosta was raised in the shadows of perfection, shaped by tradition, and taught that love is a weakness. The two meet where futures are forged-at university. But what begins as an unlikely friendship turns into something neither of them can deny.
In a world where family name means everything and love isn't always enough, Carina and Simoné must fight not just for each other, but for the right to define happiness on their own terms. Surrounded by friends who grow, falter, and rise beside them, they discover that sometimes the strongest kind of love isn't loud-it's chosen. Again and again.
"We Chose Love Anyway" is a slow-burn, emotionally layered queer romance about breaking cycles, finding found family, and discovering that real strength lies in softness.

Before You Replied
Digi's summer plan was simple: work at her family's restaurant, hang out with friends, and stay out of trouble before senior year. Then Beck showed up. She didn't know he existed a month ago, and now - after accidentally texting the wrong number - he was everywhere. On the beach she's claimed as her own. In her parent's restaurant. At family events he had no reason to be at. And every time they cross paths, he managed to pull a little more of her world into his. What started as an accidental encounter turns into late-night conversations, shared secrets, and a connection Digi can't explain - or shake, despite how hard she tries. But Beck has his own past, and the closer they get, the more she realises that some people don't just walk into your life. Sometimes, they crash into it and leave nothing the same. This a story of chance meetings, cultural expectations, healing, and the kind of love they never saw coming - but couldn't walk away from. Hi guys, I hope you fall in love with Before You Replied, as much as I did while writing it. If you're into slow burns, men who are soft for their women, badass ladies, forbidden love, culture clashes, and characters who feel a little like people you know and love - then this one's for you.
Kissing Is the Easy Part
It started on Wattpad and now it's hitting the screen. Read the original story that inspired the film and then watch KISSING IS THE EASY PART now available on Tubi. KISSING IS THE EASY PART is published by Wattpad Books. Please order from the link in my profile. *** Being beautiful might as well be Flora Morgan's only talent. Some of the words she hates include economy class, second-hand clothes, and budget. She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.
Where Love Meets The Quite War
Caia Dela Vega wasn't supposed to fall in love this year-especially not with the sharp-eyed scholarship girl who avoids people like the plague. Transferring to a quiet school far from the spotlight of her high-profile family, Caia planned to finish her senior year quietly, privately, and without complication. But then there's Rain Delara. Blunt. Brilliant. Closed off like a storm about to break. What starts as friction becomes a spark. A shared club. A slow unraveling of walls. A war of glances, late-night texts, and moments that almost mean everything-until they do. As exams approach and futures press in, Caia and Rain are pulled between what they want and who the world expects them to be. Because falling in love is one thing. Staying in love-when the real world starts knocking-is another. This is a story of longing, quiet rebellion, and loving someone enough to lose them. Because sometimes, the softest wars are the ones inside us-and the loudest loves are the ones we never planned.Complete

always been you - second chance wlw romance
This book may NOT be reproduced, reposted, copied, or translated in any way unless you receive permission directly from the author. Felicity Rose Bennett has everything the world thinks she wants-chart-topping songs, magazine covers, fans who call her perfect. But the world doesn't know she's hiding. Burned out, suffocated by fame, and haunted by a stalker no one else knows about, Felicity flees to her mothers' quiet Toronto lake house just to breathe for the first time in years. She doesn't expect Harriet Johnson to walk through the door with a suitcase and a key. Harriet has spent the last four years running from her past-alcohol addiction, heartbreak, and the memory of the only girl she's ever loved. Sober now and fighting her way through med school, she only wanted a quiet summer. She didn't know Felicity would be here. She didn't know that sharing a roof again would feel like falling into a storm she thought she'd survived. They were childhood best friends turned teenage lovers-until Harriet broke Felicity's heart in the worst possible way. Now they're twenty-two, trapped by old history and new secrets, in the same house that once held their whispered dreams and first kisses. The deal is simple: her side, my side. But nothing about Felicity and Harriet has ever been simple. Not the history, not the wanting, not the way every look feels like a dare and every brush of skin threatens to set them both on fire. In the thick of July, in a house full of memories, two girls who once had everything will have to decide if second chances are worth the risk-and if loving each other is worth surviving for.Complete

Between quiz finals, basketball championships, rooftop parties, and whispered midnight confessions, something fragile begins to bloom. But falling in love at eighteen is never simple. Especially when one girl is scared of wanting, and the other wants more than she is allowed to ask for. Set in an elite all-girls boarding school in Dehradun, this is a story about stolen glances, childhood memories, late night kisses, and the slow, aching magic of being seen, exactly as you are.Complete
