"You didn't notice me back then. And now?
Now that I've learned to stop waiting for you... suddenly you see me."

Book 1

Serena Hart spent years being invisible to Lucas Thorne-her brother's best friend and the man she once loved in silence. Now, working under him on a high-stakes trip to London, she's no longer the quiet girl he overlooked. She's grown, guarded, and done waiting.

Lucas built an empire on control, but nothing prepares him for the woman Serena's become-or the guilt of realizing everything he failed to see and say. As sparks reignite and old memories surface, their connection grows into something neither can ignore. 

Sometimes the hardest thing to face is the person you never meant to hurt.
And even after love finally finds its way in... some heartbreaks are still waiting to be survived.

‼️PSA- Before reading, please read all tropes! This is an age gap romance and starts as a childhood unrequited crush. If you do not like age gap romance or any of the other tropes don't read it‼️

Heartbreak Express by rayneaissance

🏆 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.

Endgame For You by MckaylaMead

I'm not scared of falling, she told him. Just of not being caught. Seventeen-year-old Danica Parker has always survived by staying quiet, staying small, and staying out of the way. But when her mother lands in rehab and Danica is placed in the care of the wealthy, picture-perfect Hayes family, everything changes. Thrown into a world of soft beds, second chances, and a brooding boy with a bruised past of his own, Danica is forced to confront what it means to be seen - and to matter. Kaiser Hayes, once the golden boy of Ridgeview High's soccer team, is now sidelined by injury and bitterness. But when their worlds collide, so does something else: fire. As Danica begins to rebuild the pieces of her broken world - new friends, stolen kisses, whispered confessions in the dark - a phone call from the past threatens to unravel everything. Her biological father, powerful and dangerous, wants something from her... and he won't take no for an answer. This was never supposed to feel like home. But maybe home isn't a place. Maybe it's a person. A heartfelt, slow-burn romance with secrets, scars, and the kind of love that demands to be fought for.

Ava Carter has spent her entire high school career proving she's the best-top grades, student council, and a future at her dream college. The only thing standing in her way? Jace Montgomery. Jace is the school's golden boy-star soccer player, effortlessly charming, and Ava's biggest rival.

As the late-night study sessions and reluctant conversations pile up, Ava begins to see Jace in a way she never expected. And Jace?

All The Ways You're Mine by uniquelynisha

Serena has always been the quiet girl-the one who blends into the background, careful never to attract too much attention. But behind closed doors, she lives a double life. Online, she's a bestselling anonymous author of steamy romances that her classmates are obsessed with... never suspecting that the stories come from her. Then comes Kaden-the new senior who turns heads just by walking into a room. Serena swears she'll ignore him, until he slips into her imagination and onto the pages of her latest series. She writes him into a world where he's bold, magnetic, impossible to resist... everything she's too shy to want in real life. But when Kaden stumbles across her forgotten notebook, he discovers her secret and himself within it. Amused, intrigued, and strangely drawn in, he decides to play along. Every glance, every word, every moment becomes a game between them, as if they're co-authoring their own hidden love story. Yet when Serena moves on in her writing creating a new fictional love interest Kaden's amusement turns into something else entirely. He doesn't just want to be her inspiration anymore. He wants to make her words come alive, and he won't let her close the book on him.
