Did you think your 2020 started badly?
Could you handle a broken heart, an accident and being lost in a foreign country on top of a world wide pandemic?
My name is Jean Paul, my friends call me JP. I am Canadian, living in the city of Vancouver and am 27 years old.
I consider myself to be a lucky guy most of the time, I have many friends and my parents love me.
My favourite sport is Ice Hockey and I have a stable job in my dad's insurance company.
But....I am lost in life and lost in love.
My long-term girlfriend Liz decided that we had no future and cut me out of her life. She told me she will marry another man soon.
The emptiness in my life without Liz left a gaping hole in my heart and soul. When you have been together with a partner for so long you grown into 1 person. I knew every corner of her body and mind.
Could my life get any worse?
Unfortunately, the answer to that question is yes.
My story of heartache, bruised and broken bones led me to a Paradise on earth.
A Paradise which cast a spell on me with its white beaches, blue ocean and above all loving and caring people.
My journey is still ongoing, but I have learned one thing: Sometimes blue skies is all we need.
See you soon.
Love,
JP

Against All Boundaries
What do you think will you do when you're pinned in a situation you've never imagine to happen, but you were actually hoping for? Because you find nothing to appreciate from yourself, you wish you could become someone else. And when that opportunity knocked on your door, you were torn thinking whether you'll open it, and entertain the visit, or just let it pass and settle for what is right. But because of your own selfish wishes, vanity and prejudices, you were able to do the worst thing there is. To go beyond all lines. To go against all boundaries. One that caused you to lose what makes you, you. And the one that made regret get all over you.

Cruel King | 18+ [ON HOLD]
[18+] COLLEGE ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE *~*~* Conrad Taylor is an asshole - everyone knows that. But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE. Mature 18+ (Language, content, all that good stuff) Enough character development to turn the devil back into an angel. New chapters every Wednesday and Sunday. *Big Fat Smooch* Good to see you again, my lovelies.

Finding Christmas
(Completed) Earlier this year, a pandemic crippled the world... December 1 The earthquake hit. December 3 The waters came and the flood overpowered us. My younger brother and sister cry for our parents on the other side of the world. The only consolation I have is "Christmas is coming." My younger sister asked me how we could celebrate Christmas with nothing. I had no answer except, "We'll find a way." *** 2020 brought many unexpected things. The unexpected bad and the unexpected good. With the year coming to a close, I want to dedicate this story to the front-liners, to those living away from family, to the Filipinos affected by the recent typhoons and flood, and to my grandparents who have survived through so much and thrived through it all. Christmas time is the time to be reminded of HOPE, the hope that comes in Jesus' promised birth and life to live, PEACE, the peace that comes from the Prince of Peace alone, JOY, the joy that comes from a fresh start, a new beginning and the birth of a baby (Luke 2:5-7) and LOVE, the love that sent a King down on earth to be a baby so that He could experience life before He'd give His life for us so that we could live with Him (John 3:16) (Not edited. Thanks for reading:)Complete
