Trope: Best friends to Lovers
My best friend~ "This love wasn't easy. But it's always been ours."
Adrian Vale and Iris Quinn~
Best friends since diapers.
One night of heat.
And a slow fall neither of them saw coming.
She's scared to love again.
He's never loved at all.
But if they ruin this - they'll lose everything.
Still Choosing You - because sometimes, love doesn't ask. It just happens.
Adrian: "I don't know when it stopped being just desire... but every time I touch you now, it feels like I'm begging you to stay."
Iris: "I told myself I'd never fall again... and somehow, you became the exception without even trying."
But love is loud - even when it starts in silence.
And when the fear of falling collides with the risk of losing everything...
the only thing left to ask is:
"Would you still choose me, even now?"
✨ A friends-to-lovers, no-going-back kind of romance.
✨ Raw. Lustful. Slow-burning and soul-deep.
Because sometimes, the greatest love stories start the moment you break the rules.
And still... choose each other.

That One Mistake
There are times when Lena wishes Adrian would just shut up, sit still and play nice. There are also times when Lena wishes for nothing more than for Adrian to just be Adrian: her frustrating childhood best friend. At the ripe age of twenty-something, Lena and Adrian's dynamic is no different than when they were teenagers. Adrian has always been all about the parties, the fun, the travel, while Lena would prefer to sit on a cactus than to be in a room full of strangers. Maybe their clashing personalities should've been an indicator of how badly things would turn out if they decided to cross the line of friendship and enter into a miserable push-and-pull limbo, but it seems that whenever Adrian looks at Lena, all reason leaves her body. Determined not to repeat the mistake of kissing him, Lena tries to push the memory away, only having to deal with Adrian's other shenanigans, such as coming into her apartment uninvited, meddling in her dating life and making a fool of her in front of a large group of people. You know, the usual. But when enough is enough and Lena finally finds the will to take a step back from Adrian's life, two plane tickets to their hometown threaten to dissipate her newfound resolve and thrust her into even more trouble. --------------- WARNING: Strong language.Complete

Beside
''Tell me how it feels,'' he whispers. "Good," I gasp, my entire body trembling. Deeper. Harder. Perfect. Like we've been doing this for years. His hand finds my jaw, fingers firm as he tilts my head up, making me look at him. And that's it. Waves of heat zip to my toes as my nails scrape down his back. I don't think about what comes next -- him pulling his shirt on and leaving. I don't feel heartbroken when I imagine myself alone in here. It's casual, our intimacy. And it's too late to renegotiate. ***** When Fox hooks up with his new roommate at a masked club, he has no idea their fling is just the beginning. The woman he's living with is the same girl who shared candy with him under a playground slide. 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣 STANDALONE NOVEL *ANGSTY EMOTIONAL SLOW BURN *MEN YEARNING Copyright © 2024-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).
