Ovi Verma never believed her life could turn into something straight out of a romance novel. A shy, sunshine-hearted bookworm, she only wanted to stay on top of her grades and keep her little world simple. But everything turns upside down when Avneesh Mehra - her brother's best friend, the grumpy, cold, and untouchable topper - suddenly starts becoming a part of her life in ways she never expected.

Avneesh has always lived behind walls - walls built from a broken family, harsh words, and the belief that love doesn't last. To him, emotions were a distraction, something he couldn't afford. Until Ovi. With her sarcastic comebacks, hidden strength, and the light she carries so effortlessly, she begins to chip away at the darkness he's held onto for years.

What begins as annoyance soon turns into something deeper - stolen glances, unexpected comfort, and a bond neither of them saw coming. But when past scars, family expectations, and their own fears stand in the way, will they be able to fight for the love that sneaked up on them? Or will they prove themselves right - that love was never meant for them?

A story of sunshine and storm, of brokenness and healing, of two opposites finding home in each other.All Rights Reserved

What We Choose by midnightbluewriting

PAUL I cheated on my fiancée. Sophie and I were building our future. In love, happy, peaceful. Then she found a lump in her breast and I made the worst choice: I numbed my fear by sleeping with someone else. My worst mistake and my biggest regret. Now I see Sophie around town with him. She's radiant and laughing with people who actually show up. I'm trying to learn how to be a man who does. If she lets me, I'll spend the rest of my life proving I can choose her when it's hardest. If she lets me... SOPHIE I thought the promise was in sickness and in health. But he buried his fear in someone else. On the same night, I walked into a bookstore and meet the gentle giant owner who invites me to his book club full of misfits. I'm laughing again, I smile more than I ever have, I heal my heart. My ex says he can learn to stay, but my bookstore owner keeps showing up like it's as easy as breathing. I don't know what the future holds; I don't know if I'll win this battle against cancer, but I do know I'm done wasting time on people that love only when it's easy. CALLUM She came in to Rivers & Rhodes Bookstore and asked for books with happy endings only. I gave her a recommendation, an invitation, and an offer of friendship. Now, this beautiful brave woman is completely under my skin. I'm not here to win a competition against him. I'm here because choosing someone, second by second, is the only way I understand love.

love, eventually | ✓ by apoeticversee

Khwaish Sharma has a stable job, a loud laugh, and zero interest in tying the knot just because her mother said so. But when the pressure to settle down turns relentless, she makes an impulsive choice - to ask her quiet, charming new friend Mehul to meet her family. Mehul Harbola didn't expect to be dragged into the world of nosy chachis, dramatic dinners, and unsolicited wedding talk. But there's something about Khwaish; her fire, her honesty, the way she throws her head back when she laughs ── that makes him stay. Set against the chaos of family expectations, awkward introductions, and slow-burning feelings, this quirky rom-com celebrates messy emotions, unexpected love, and a woman learning to write her own script.
