When Swiss art dealer Hector P. meets American Midwestern Elizabeth Bennet in Hong Kong, he senses there is a unique emotional bond between them. The beginning of their relationship is intense and Romanesque. Yet, unbeknown to each other, behind the infatuation and anticipations, they are both holding secrets. The weight of these secrets and the high expectations in each other are the grounds for a formidable adventure to the depth of the human soul.

“Writing the tragedy that I underwent, I transform my sufferings into a beautiful thing. In making you smile, I take control over my own suffering and I transform my destiny into a story. Here we are. It happened to me. I have been wounded. But I do not want to continue my life with it; to be subject to my past. Only one event can provoke death, a little is needed. But when we come back to life, when we are born a second time and that the hidden area of memories emerges, the fatal event becomes holy as it personifies the instance of the metamorphosis, the magic wand, that shows us that there was a before and there will be an after.”All Rights Reserved

His Ultimate Favor Is Me by ICessEYEDAN

In a world where love and betrayal intertwine, my life took a devastating turn on a rainy night. I found myself alone, cast out by my cruel stepmother after the death of my father. Homeless and heartbroken, I wandered the streets, tears streaming down my face, clutching the remnants of a life I once knew. Just when hope felt like a distant memory, a mysterious car pulled up, offering me a lifeline. Inside was a reserved CEO, a man burdened by secrets, who unknowingly held the key to my past. He offered me shelter and solace, but as our paths intertwined, he remained silent about the fateful event that brought us together four years ago when I saved his life. Unaware of our shared history, I struggled to trust again, navigating the complexities of my feelings for this enigmatic man who had rescued me once more. As I began to unravel the layers of his guarded heart, I was forced to confront the shadows of my own past and the painful memories that lingered. "His Ultimate Favor Is Me" is my story, a poignant tale of love, resilience, and the unbreakable bond forged through sacrifice. Will I discover the truth of my past before it's too late? And can I find a way to heal the wounds that threaten to keep me from the love I never knew I needed? Created: 10/14/24 Published: 10/14/24

Just Revenge (#1) by lovebirds15

I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes. I tried to read his thoughts, too, but it felt like he had blocked me out this time. Nothing seemed clear to me anymore. Tears were burning behind my eyes and threatening to pour out. I forced myself to hold them back and asked him, "Just revenge?" Without a ting of emotion on his face, he said, "Just Revenge." ********************************************* Amelia Lawson had a perfect life.

Elizabeth by Everest438

Some things are never meant to happen the way that they happen. Some things are not supposed to break the way they break, but we are not in charge of this earth. We cannot oversee how things are fixed and how they break. We are only capable of putting the pieces back together...mending broken hearts and healing empty souls. Why him? They ask her constantly. Why the heartless man to comfort the hurting soul? Because, she always responds, even after countless mood swings, crazy demands, constant reassurance, and stupid arguments, he never gave up on her. Why her? They would ask her every time. He'd respond the same. Because I don't want to court her in bed. I want to love her in life. Polar opposites attract. Elizabeth and Romeo attract. They just want to love each other in life through the pain, the agony, the abuse, the depression, the anxiety, the mafia, the breaking, the fixing, the helping, the hurting. It's just love at the end of the day.

With Mangoes And Chocolates | ✓ by nahiabbatahido

An Indian Teenfic | Featured on @AmbassadorsIN Teen-fiction 2024 | | Featured on @RomanceINDIA 's 'Ishq Vishq Pyar Vyar' 2024 | Opposites attract, yeah, we get it. But what about people with similar minds but different morals and priorities? With conflicting beliefs and contrasting perspectives, wasn't it just impossible for them to have a home in this street, called 'love'? And to turn impossible into possible, one has to make a lot of sacrifices. Perhaps, adding a pinch of unfairness would help as well. *********************** Manasvi Mehta knew she was a pathetic mess. With her friends count being zero, her communication skills in negative, her anxiety and impulsiveness reaching its peak, and her sensitive heart leaking tears at the slightest harm to humanity. . .she knew she was not the kind to survive. She though it was a miracle that Bhavuk Thakur developed a liking to her. He seemed to appreciate every inch and depth of her. His compliments made her heart flutter; levitate her off the ground. For the tiniest time period, she thought she wasn't such a burden on Earth after all. She realised he was too good for her. He was better without her; confident and carefree. And for that, she leaves him. But he. . .well, let's just say that he had forgotten how to live without her. [Trending #1 in India as of November 2024]

The Wedding Plan by LizThomaz

What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship? P.S: English is not my first language, so if you read something of mine, please be kind in the comments and constructive criticism is really appreciated.
