Carlie's life is a quiet rhythm of crowded trains, high school hallways, and late-night city lights-until the day she spots him. From the rooftop of her school, a lone motorcycle hums below, and with it, a stranger who looks like trouble wrapped in leather and silence. She doesn't know his name. But something about him pulls her in.
What Carlie doesn't see is Ethan-her best friend, the boy who's always been there, who knows her better than anyone... and who's been in love with her for years.
As Carlie drifts toward the mystery she can't explain, Ethan starts to fade into the background. But in a city that never sleeps, secrets don't stay hidden for long-and hearts can only stay quiet for so long before they break.
A slow-burn drama of unspoken love, quiet longing, and the magnetic pull of the unknown.

Ava & Liam: What it means to stay
Ava never expected her last year of high school to start with a stranger changing everything. Quiet, unpredictable, impossible to read, Liam walks into her life like a storm she didn't see coming. He hides behind sarcasm and long sleeves, drifting through school like he's just passing through. Ava tells herself not to care. But then he looks at her. And she sees it, the pain he tries to bury, the secrets he pretends don't exist, the loneliness he carries like a shadow. When they're forced to work together for a class project, Ava slowly discovers the truth he hides from everyone else: Liam doesn't let people close. Because the last time he did... it destroyed him. What begins as awkward teamwork turns into late-night conversations, shared moments, and quiet confessions neither of them meant to say out loud. They're not supposed to fall for each other. They're not even supposed to be friends. But some connections don't care about rules. As Ava gets pulled deeper into Liam's world and the complicated, fragile life he tries so hard to manage, she realizes there's more at stake than just her heart. Because Liam's past is darker than she ever imagined. And the truth waiting for him is something that might change everything. This is a story about two people learning to trust again... about staying when it's easier to run... and about finding light in the one person you never expected. A slow-burn, emotional romance about healing, secrets, and the kind of love that makes you brave.Complete

Love is something other people fall into-messy, uncontrollable, and not for him. So when the new school year begins and a face from his dreams starts appearing in his waking world, Candy refuses to accept what his instincts (and his chest) insist is happening. The girl is both impossibly familiar and utterly unknown: a presence that makes the air hum and the world tilt. Candy tries distance, logic, and a carefully built armor of indifference, but the more he resists, the more the dreamlike and the real blur together. As memories and midnight visions tug at him, Candy finds himself leaning into feelings he never meant to have-drawn closer by curiosity, by longing, and by the small, steady encouragement of his best friends.

Love Misunderstood
I only ever met one man I'd call truly noble. He was a man who was misunderstood and worthy of the world, yet everyone saw him differently. That was until I saw his true colours. The more I caught his eye the more he noticed me. We would pass each other, I would always stare a little longer at his back, wondering his story. People used to move out of the hallways if they saw him approaching whereas people would come and talk to me. He kept to himself, I was never alone, he had no friends, I was friends with everyone, I never saw him talk to anyone I spoke to many. we were polar opposites. At least that's what I thought until that day in the library, that is where I will start this story. Everyone is different, I hate the word "different", I much prefer the word unique. Unique is the only way to describe him. This is not just a story about love, it is about helping two souls who act differently but are the same on the inside, it shows the messy parts that aren't shown in movies, the tragedy, and the comedy but most of all the sizzling romance between two broken people who became one. Who is this story about? Caden James. But this is not just his story, It is ours.Complete
