Théo once painted his world in colors no one else dared to mix. But the fire that fueled his palette burned out, leaving only muted tones, smudges of regret, and canvases he couldn't finish.
When his world collided with Camile, it wasn't a gentle sketch. It was bold strokes, messy layers, intoxicating pigments bleeding into each other-everything they should wash away but can't.

Every conversation unfurls like a cinematic tableau: smoky rooms clouded with turpentine, half-finished canvases leaning against cracked walls, egos smeared raw, and midnight arguments that drip into tangled sheets.

They stain each other. She primes him back into art. He splatters her into chaos. Together, they are a living canvas of love, lust, and ruin-too volatile to preserve, too magnetic to paint over.
But how long can two fractured artists keep layering each other in color before the canvas finally tears?

"By the time you are reading this, I'm gone." 𝐴𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑖𝑡 𝑎𝑙𝑙, 𝑤𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑖 𝑐𝑟𝑜𝑠𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑑? 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 is officially at rock bottom. Once a wild and carefree university student living in a bustling city, her life is uprooted. She finds herself living with her estranged mother in a quiet and unfamiliar seaside town. June struggles to come to terms with her mental illness and the effects it has in her life. She knows that healing isn't linear, it takes work; dedication. In wake of her condition, the last thing on her mind is a romantic relationship. But something, or rather someone, is determined to prove otherwise. As she navigates the complexities of her relationships, June learns that although she may not always believe it; she is worthy of love. --------------------------- 𝐎𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞 knows what it means to lose everything. A person fragmented, misunderstood. Known of by many, but never truly seen. Perceived as either the quiet painter who took care of his sick mother, or the angry and distraught man who lost her too young. Battling with his grief and haunted by the condition that plagued his late parent, he had no where left to turn. That is, until he met June. She is light where he is shadow, amongst the turbulence in their lives they find refuge in each other. However, some wounds need more than simply time to heal. As they will learn, love can hurt as much as it can heal. (𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞). 🏅4 in Moving Forward (06/11)

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.

Strangers In Paris by Faintlyepic
40 parts Complete Mature
It starts with a fake relationship and a broken espresso machine. It ends with a question neither of them are ready to answer. Élise has spent years keeping her head down and her heart out of reach, running her family's café in a quiet corner of Paris. She likes control. Routine. Silence. What she doesn't like is Theo, the awkwardly charming British guy who shows up with no clue how to steam milk and even less idea how to survive in France. But when Theo's visa problems collide with Élise's need for a convenient excuse to dodge her arrogant ex, they strike a deal: a fake relationship. Just a few rules. No kissing. No falling. No real feelings. Easy. Until it isn't. Because Theo is too soft for someone pretending. And Élise is too lonely for someone lying. As the city wraps around them, with its late-night walks, awkward almost-kisses, and too many secrets, the line between real and pretend begins to blur. And in a place like Paris, even the best-kept rules can't protect a heart that's already starting to fall.

BOOK 1 OF THE BRUISED HEARTS SERIES "Help, I have done it again, I have been here many times before."- Breathe me by Sia Some loves hurt. Some loves scar. Aurora never imagined trusting anyone again-least of all Theo. He's infuriating. He's impossible. And yet, he sees the parts of her no one else does. Every fight, every stolen moment, every heartbeat threatens to break them both. But when the past won't let go, sometimes the only way to move forward... is to set yourself on fire. "I think you're going to have to ask me again," I murmured, tilting my chin up. "But like, really nicely this time." Theo blinked. "You're serious?" "Deadly." A second passed. Then another. I watched the way his tongue ran along the inside of his cheek, watched his hand flex like he was trying not to grab me too fast, too rough. And then, softer now-different-he said, "Rory." Just my name, but it held more weight than anything else. "Please, baby. Let me kiss you." his storm, her shelter.

C O M P L E T E D : 24/02/22 Sienna Callum was popular - scratch that - she was the queen of high school. She had tons of gorgeous friends wishing to be her, smoking hot flings, and an unbelievably trendy fashion sense. But, she needed one more thing. Decent grades to graduate. Roman Lawrence was a nerd - scratch that - THE nerd of high school. Yet, his exceptional intelligence made him stand out among those seeking to learn. He had one problem though, the girl he'd been crushing on since kindergarten didn't like him back. One of the reasons? His lack of experience.... sexually. This isn't boy meets girl. This is mouse meets vixen. This is what happens when these two opposites strike a deal and things get hot.

In the quiet spaces between words and silences, they stumble, two fractured souls reaching through the dark. Burnt mornings, tangled nights, and the weight of all the things left unsaid. Love here isn't a gentle flame, it's a storm, fierce and fragile, pulling them closer even as it threatens to tear them apart. This is a story of scars and surrender, of fragile hope whispered beneath broken breaths, and the endless ache of wanting someone to stay .. even when it feels impossible. Closer. Always closer.
The Ones we Shouldn't Love: ACT I by CLFarron1022
5 parts Ongoing Mature
It starts fast-like lightning striking dry earth. What begins as a spark becomes a fire neither of them can contain. It's the kind of love that keeps you up at night, wide-eyed and breathless, not out of fear, but because you can't bear to miss a single moment. It bruises the heart in places no one sees, but never breaks it-never harms it. Just leaves fingerprints, soft and lingering. Leaving would be easier if love ever truly left. But it doesn't. It lingers in the walls, in the sheets, in the silence between words. One heart clings to memory, loving what was. The other leans into the unknown, loving what might be. And somewhere in between, love becomes a duty-an unspoken promise, heavy and unshakable. All she wants is quiet now. Not the silence of loneliness, but the stillness of peace. A place where her heart doesn't have to choose between two kinds of love-only rest in the safety of her own.
