Have you ever felt something for a person you shouldn't feel? Sunny knows the feeling too well, she got a new teacher in literature class. Miss Austin is stern, demanding and playful but she hides something that will shock everyone.

Cassidy Faith always felt like the invisible sister. No matter how hard she worked, her mother only had eyes for Dianne. The golden child who could do no wrong. Even when Cassidy racked up honors at school, it barely registered. Dianne got all the celebrations. Cassidy learned to keep her head down and her feelings locked away, just aiming to finish high school near the top of her class. Then Dianne heads off to her dream university, and suddenly Cassidy turns the tables. She drops the news: she's earned a scholarship to study abroad. It stuns her family. As she gets ready to leave the Philippines, she pours her hurt into painting, using it to build a shield around her heart. But once she lands overseas, things don't stay simple. The new place, the new faces, they push her out of her comfort zone. Cassidy has to decide: does she keep everyone at arm's length, or finally let people in? And somewhere in the middle of all that, there's the question of her family. Can she patch things up, or is it time to stop looking back and start living for herself?

"Before you, the world existed only in shades of gray" Allaine Yzobella Cortez has spent her entire life surrounded by perfection, discipline, and people who know better than to test her patience. Then there is Wynn Quenn Javier, a broke and annoyingly persistent artist who lost her inspiration long ago, only to find it again in Allaine herself. What neither of them knows is that their meeting was never accidental. Their lives were already intertwined long before they realized it.

Michelle Pearce has always known one thing about her life, that every breath she takes is something she can never take for granted. Living with cystic fibrosis, Michelle exists between limits: between strength and fragility, between hope and fear. Yet despite a body that often betrays her, she chooses to keep smiling. She refuses to be the reason for anyone's sadness especially not for her twin brother, Michael, who guards her like she could disappear at any moment. But there is one thing she has never been allowed to have the freedom to return to the city she longs for: London. Until one day, fate brings her face to face with someone she never planned for. Benedict Clarke. A painter who lives in a world of his own, filled with colors, canvases, and unfinished dreams. To Ben, life has never needed anyone to complete it. Until Michelle comes along, bringing something he cannot quite put into words... or onto a canvas. Something that slowly begins to fill a space he never knew was empty. Between the rain, a city full of memories, and time that seems to be slipping away... they find something that might not last forever. Love. Because sometimes, the person we need the most... is the one we cannot keep.

Cerise Laurent does not do messy. Not in her work. Not in her image. And definitely not in her love life. She is a creative director with too much ambition, too much pride, and too much to lose to become someone's headline. Every move she makes is intentional. Every room she walks into is calculated. Cerise knows how to control a frame, protect a reputation, and keep people at a safe distance. Then Malik Johnson happens. Heavyweight boxer. Nike athlete. Public obsession. A man with discipline in his bones, pressure on his back, and an entire world waiting for him to slip. Malik is used to being watched, studied, and turned into whatever story people want him to be. But Cerise sees him differently, and that might be the most dangerous thing about her. What starts as work turns into quiet conversations, almost touches, private jokes, and the kind of tension neither of them can explain without making it real. But privacy is fragile when everyone is looking. One blurry photo is all it takes for strangers to start guessing, brands to start circling, and people close enough to know better to start paying attention. Cerise and Malik both know what control costs. The problem is, they might want each other more.

What if you woke up with no memory but just a name? What if that name belonged to a dead man who left you a voicemail from beyond the grave? What if a scar on your palm opened doors to a magic library where memories are currency and you have to trade pieces of yourself just to learn who you used to be? What if everyone wants something from you, some to save you, some to erase you, some because they loved you in a life you can't remember? And what if the only person with all the answers is dead? Waiting for you to find him. This is Kang Yeorim's story. And it starts with a dead man's voice in her ear, "I loved you more than the sky loved the dawn." --- [A huge thank you to the artist for this stunning Taehyung painting used as my cover art.

"I must have hit my head a lot harder than I had anticipated, or maybe breathe too much smoke because this is definitely nut-case crazy. Or a very creepy dream that feels way too real for my own good. I can pat my subconscious on the back for that one, but at the same time, it might be a little over the top." When Melody set fire to a museum she didn't expect to hit her head on the pavement and wake up in a nightmare. But she does. And this nightmare is not a nightmare apparently--it's a curse. A curse that traps her into paintings. And there's no escaping from the wrath of a possessed painting out to teach an art-hater a lesson.

World by world, and with the help of some of the strangest creatures from art, Amadeus must find his way back through the painting and return to the world he knows...

"Every masterpiece leaves a scar." ───────────୨ৎ─────────── Lee Areum stopped chasing dreams the day the world told her they were useless. Now she paints smiles instead of canvases, serving lattes instead of colors. Then she meets Hwang Hyunjin- a painter with eyes that see everything she hides. He's all the chaos she once ran from, and all the beauty she secretly misses. Between paint-stained hands and unspoken words, something begins to bloom. But love is fragile. And when the past returns dressed as truth, one misunderstanding is enough to tear them apart. Months later, under midnight lights and hidden faces, fate gives them one more brushstroke. A story once left unfinished... waiting to be painted again. ───────────୨ৎ─────────── est. - 19/10/25 end? - all credits to @need_hyunjin & @zoeyrainxo_

She was never meant to stand out. He was never meant to look her way. Nova lives in the background-quiet, sharp, and armed with enough sarcasm to keep the world at a safe distance. After a past she refuses to revisit and a body that doesn't always cooperate, staying invisible is easier. Colton lives in the spotlight-college quarterback, arrogant, infuriating, and everything she's learned to avoid. They clash. Constantly. Banter turns into arguments, arguments into tension, and tension into something neither of them is ready to name. Because for Nova, football players don't get second chances. And for Colton, Nova was never supposed to matter this much. But when lines blur, walls crack, and secrets surface. What happens when the one person you can't stand becomes the only one you can't lose? This book is a part of a series but can be read as a standalone Tropes Contemporary romance Rivals to Lovers (Personality Clash) Quaterback x nerd Equal Energy Couple Chronic illness Banter-Heavy Romance Mutual Annoyance → Mutual Obsession Verbal Sparring as Foreplay Hidden Vulnerability Push-Pull Dynamic

सुना है कि उनको शिकायत बहुत है नज़र भर के वो देखते भी नहीं हैं हमारे लिए सोचते भी नहीं हैं गुज़रते हैं हम रोज़ राहों से उनकी मगर वो हमें रोकते भी नहीं हैं A tale of love vs hate She is just a broken piece crushed by many legs. He is the one who wasn't expected in her life. She is filled with hate and guilt. When cries turn into lies. A battle of blood, pain and grief. "ना वो मोहब्बत थी, न ये नफ़रत है... बस एक अनकही सी कशमकश है।"

Ivy Sage Adamson's life revolved with loud music, liquor, parties, lavish lifestyle... and men. The type of a girl who doesn't get into serious relationships-she jumps from one man to another. Kieran Arc Sandoval's life was complete opposite of hers: quiet, calm, dull-boring as party people like Ivy describe it, but for him, it was his abode. Is it really possible for two people with complete opposite lives to match? Or it will only lead to a disaster none of them would want to happen? - she was the storm while he was the calmness, and growing close to each other would only lead to nothing but vainness.

I don't know, why she deleted all of her accounts; I respect her decision, but I'm extremely into her this narrative. I desperately want this to come back here, but it is not possible because she removed her account 😭😭. But I have this narrative that I'd want to share with you all so you all experience what I experienced when I read it for the first time.
