A Month to Temptation
For an introvert, life is all about balance-quiet routines, solitude, and carefully crafted excuses to avoid the chaos of other people. But nothing could prepare her for the nightmare of a mandatory month-long winter trip with every law student she knows. Trapped in a snowy mountain resort. No silence. No escape. Just endless noise, exhaustion, and forced socializing. And then there's Henry Caliver. Smartest in their class. Everyone's favorite. Brilliant. Confident. Completely untouchable. The guy every girl wants-and the one she never expected to even notice her...until one awkward encounter in the hot tub changes everything. What begins as a moment of accidental closeness turns into late-night conversations, stolen glances across crowded rooms, and a dangerous pull neither of them can resist. The mountains were supposed to be her personal hell, but temptation lurks around every corner. But what if the one person who's out of reach suddenly feels too close? What if one month is enough to break down walls she's spent years building? And what if this nightmare trip turns into the one thing she never knew she needed? One month. One impossible connection. One chance to change everything. A slow-burn, sizzling contemporary romance full of tension, longing, and unforgettable chemistry.
Avalance AU: My Reason For Now
"Sara I don't know if I lik-" She cut me off but this time, with words. "I don't really expect you to like me back. I just thought this is the only time I'm going to get to kiss you sober and I take opportunities as they come." -- Ava and Sara are two people you could never imagine associating with each other because of the high school cliche that popular people and nerds don't mix and that statement is more or less evident at their high school in Starling City. The two get partnered for a project and their platonic relationship starts off... unusually, to say the least, but the odd start becomes an inside joke and only brings them closer. The closeness is great but it makes it hard for Sara, who's feelings change for Ava. She has to deal with her crush liking another girl and Ava herself has to deal with Sara's inconsistent behavior as a friend. Everyday is a constant battle to get closer than close to each other and blossom out of their best friendship to something more intimate. When things finally do get to the relationship stage Sara isn't how you'd expect. It's real for her.Complete

Paper lanterns
At twenty-four, Emma Hayes still lives in the house she grew up in - a home haunted not by ghosts, but by the sound of her mother's drinking and her parents' endless arguments. Trapped between duty and fear, Emma spends her days shrinking herself smaller and smaller, afraid to leave, afraid to stay. When Li Wei, a quiet and kindhearted man from China, starts working at her office, Emma's world shifts - not suddenly, but slowly, like dawn spilling across a dark room. Their connection begins with a simple text about a local festival, and unfolds into something gentle, real, and profoundly human. As the seasons turn, Li Wei's patience becomes the steady rhythm beside Emma's racing heart. Together, they navigate language barriers, loneliness, and the fragile process of healing. But it isn't love alone that saves her - it's the courage to face her own reflection, to forgive her past, and to finally choose herself. Spanning the quiet corridors of everyday life and the luminous glow of autumn lanterns, The Festival of Light is a tender, realistic love story about healing from fear, rediscovering hope, and finding peace in the simplest moments.

The Silence Between Our Hearts.
Lin Qiyan was born into perfection - wealth, intellect, and a family name that demanded nothing less than obedience. When her parents arranged her marriage to Zhao Yichen, a stoic heir from another powerful family, she accepted without protest. Their relationship was built not on love, but on duty - a quiet coexistence wrapped in respect. But the morning after their wedding, Qiyan's life is stolen. Her soul is torn from her body, cast into a cruel world where she becomes a nameless girl with nothing but scars. Trapped with abusive parents and stripped of her identity, she learns what it means to suffer, to endure, and to break. Years later, when death finally releases her and she awakens once more in her original body, the world she knew has not paused for her pain. Her husband is distant, her family unchanged, and her heart no longer whole. Haunted by memories of violence and silence, Qiyan must learn to live again - to find warmth in the man who was once a stranger, and to rediscover love in the quiet between two broken hearts. A story of loss, healing, and love that blooms from the ashes - The Silence Between Our Hearts is a tender, heartbreaking journey of what it means to return, not as who you were, but as who you've become. --- If someone comes up with a better photo, please comment.
