Kira Thompson doesn't trust easily-not after the ambush in East Africa that killed her teammates and ended her military career. Betrayed by her commanding officer and lover, she disappeared into the ruthless world of private security, where emotions are liabilities and trust gets you killed. Liang Jun has everything: wealth, status, and the reckless confidence of a man who's never faced real consequences. As the son of China's ambassador to the UN, he's more interested in Shanghai's nightlife than the credible assassination threats against his life. Bodyguards are inconveniences. Rules are suggestions. And the scarred American woman assigned to protect him? Just another obstacle to ignore. But when the Qing Triad makes their move, Jun realizes Kira isn't just a bodyguard-she's the only thing standing between him and a brutal death. Forced into proximity, their explosive clash of wills ignites into something neither can control. She sees past his careless facade to the man beneath. He sees past her armor to the wounds she hides. As betrayal circles closer and old enemies resurface, Kira must decide: keep her walls up and do her job, or risk everything for a man who's already claiming her shattered heart. In a deadly game where love is the ultimate weakness, survival might cost them everything they never knew they needed. ©️ Relle H

He has loved her for fourteen years. Through dinner parties and Sunday lunches and eighteen years of friendship with the man she goes home to. Through Wednesday coffees that started as nothing and became the only part of his week that felt entirely real. Through every smile she placed a half-beat too early and every sleeve pulled down in summer and every time she said fine when she meant something else entirely. He has never said so. He has never acted on it. He has made himself - quietly, steadily, at enormous personal cost - safe ground. Because Amelia Sutton is surviving. Her life looks perfect from the outside. The Mosman house. The high-powered job. The partner who is always reasonable, always pleasant, always watching. Dom has never raised his voice. He has never needed to. He has other ways of making himself understood - ways that leave no evidence, that sound like nothing when repeated to someone else, that have taught Amelia, over sixteen years, to make herself smaller and call it fine. She is not fine. Marcus knows it. He has been watching the woman he loves disappear by degrees and he has been - because it is the only thing he is allowed to be - safe ground. Present. Steady. The one place she can put the coat down. When she finally says the thing she has never said out loud to anyone - not really, no, not for quite a long time - he receives it without pressing and asks for nothing in return. He is waiting for her to find her way back to herself. She is finding it. But Dom is always watching. And he notices everything. And the ground is shifting under all of them. * * * What It Once Was is a slow-burn romance about a woman reclaiming herself and the man who never stopped seeing who she really was.

In the gilded and volatile world of nineteenth century Tuscany, where noble titles carry more weight than conscience and desire moves beneath the surface of every formal gathering like current beneath still water, Corinna arrives at the Laurent Estate with dark eyes, a past carved by grief, and a beauty so complete it rearranges every room she enters. She is a Black woman who has traveled far from the shores that raised her, drawn to Tuscany following her grandmother's death and the need to begin somewhere that does not already know her name. The Laurent Estate is one of Italy's most storied noble houses, its ancient stone soaked in wine and older scandal, presided over by Count Alexandre Laurent, a man of devastating composure and barely contained feeling who is formally betrothed to the cool and calculating Sophie Beaumont. What builds between Corinna and Alexandre across harvest seasons, candlelit cellars, masked balls, and crackling family ruin is a slow and punishing accumulation of desire that neither can outrun. ©️ _RelleLebby_// R.

Jay Ahn has been watching Malik Tate from across the street since they were ten years old, and he has been loving him almost as long. Not the simple kind of love. The kind that folds itself small enough to fit inside a friendship and lives there quietly for years, patient and heavy and unnamed. Malik Tate is magnetic, loyal, and building himself from the ground up in a world that wants to own every piece of him it can reach. He knows exactly who Jay is. What he does not yet know is what to do with everything he feels when he looks at him. Set in Richmond, Virginia, this is their story. A decade of shared summers, cracked sidewalks, late nights, near-confessions, wrong moments, and the slow, relentless pull of two people moving toward each other against every force designed to keep them still. It is not a fast story. It is not meant to be. The slow burn here is not a device. It is the whole point. Because some loves do not arrive. They are built, quietly, over years, out of ordinary moments that reveal themselves to have mattered all along. When they finally reach for each other, everything they survived to get there becomes the architecture of something neither the industry, nor the fathers, nor the world's noise can dismantle. This is Richmond. This is a decade. This is a love story that refused to be rushed. Come in. Stay a while. © Relle H.

A quiet story about love, distance, and the courage to walk away. I was never the other woman. I was never the only one either. One loved me from a distance. The other stood beside me every day. One accused me of cheating. The other promised he would wait. I never crossed the line. But sometimes, emotional lines are harder to see. When I finally left, no one stopped me. No one followed. Years passed. No calls. No messages. No closure. And somewhere between the silence and the healing, I realized something terrifyingly peaceful: I no longer needed to be chosen. I chose myself. This is not a story about betrayal. It's about growing up, letting go, and finding strength in unanswered promises. If you've ever loved someone you couldn't fully have - this story is for you.

Kavya Patel walked away from it all-fame, fortune, family, a life meticulously built on choices she now regrets. She sought refuge in the quiet streets of Nashik, trading glamour for simplicity, and heartache for the fragile hope of forgiveness. As a schoolteacher, she begins to rebuild her life, one small act of courage at a time, burying the past where no one can see it... or so she thinks. Then Vihaan Draakshekar appears-magnetic, unpredictable, and unbearably alive. Commitment is a foreign concept to him, yet something about Kavya unsettles him, igniting a fire he never expected and desires he's never allowed himself to feel. Haunted by mistakes, both carrying secrets they dare not reveal, Kavya and Vihaan are drawn together in a collision of passion, vulnerability, and the lingering shadows of guilt. But in a world where trust is fragile and love feels impossible, can two hearts broken by regret find a way to heal... or will their pasts tear them apart forever?

Dallas does not forget anything. It watches from neon-lit bar corners and Highland Park breakfast tables, from Oak Cliff church pews and Carrollton market stalls where two languages blend mid-sentence without apology. Ashley Moore is three months from her Communications degree, bartending her way toward a future her mother has different blueprints for - loyal, incisive, and done shrinking herself to fit rooms that were never built for her. Chloe Blanchard is a Design junior navigating the quiet war between who she is and who her world expects her to be, photographing shadows and hiding her real work behind the version of herself that causes the least disruption. When a Deep Ellum dare becomes the best decision either of them makes all year, the city takes note. What follows is not a fairytale. It is family reckoning, legal confrontation, identity excavation, and two women learning to choose each other loudly inside a world that would prefer they stay quiet. The burn is slow. The love is earned. Nothing important comes without cost. drama © Relle H. all rights reserved.

The war is over. The treaty has been signed. Imara Valen arrives at Dragon Academy-Tianlong carrying grief like a second skin, dispatched under a peace clause she had no hand in writing, forced to train beside the people who built the empire that unmade her life. The last person she expects to be bonded to by the Academy's ancient Partnership System is the Crown Prince himself, a man armored in ice and responsible for the most significant loss she has ever survived. The bond cannot be broken without consequences neither of them can afford, and it will not let them remain strangers. What follows is not a love story that begins in warmth. It begins in fury, in silence, and in the slow terrible discovery that the institution pairing them has a purpose neither of them was told. The romance is earned through friction and argument and moments where honesty costs something real. The conspiracy runs deeper than anyone inside it knows. And the grief at the center of everything refuses to stay where it was put. Dark fantasy. Slow burn. Interracial romance. Black female lead.

She was his personal assistant-professional, composed, invisible to gossip. He was power, authority, and a line she refused to cross. When silence becomes heavier than truth, love must be chosen without losing dignity.
