When the Crown Prince of Gomai, Jonathan, goes on his Royal Burgeon, the customary trip all crown royals take before ascending to the throne, he meets Nadia Goodman. A free, untethered, captivating woman with a whispering nature. Who knows nothing of crowns and customs or the pressures of being a royal that Jonathan’s shouldered his whole life. It allows Jonathan to put down that weight for a while, finding solace in the freedom and anonymity his Royal Burgeon has granted him . . . and with her. But will she show him a life so rich and full, one that shines more than a crown ever could, or will the weight of the Crown, and hundreds of years of tradition, silence the life he could have before it even has time to take shape?
A Story Like Ours
Roe Carter and Levi Wilton were unwilling friends at first, then they became inseparable. A spark ignited between them that later bloomed into much more, until Levi left without a word.
Six years later, Levi comes back into Roe’s life as abruptly as he left the time before; circumstances put them in close proximity, yet they couldn’t be further apart.
But there’s a story between them begging to be finished.
Every chance Levi gets, he tries to pull them closer together and weave a few new pages of their story, but Roe’s confusing emotions and new tough exterior charge her with the opposite task of keeping them apart. It seems like a losing battle, but as they spend time around each other, they find themselves drawn to one another, subject to the fundamental pull of two opposite poles that will inevitably attract, and to the sweet, yet sometimes taxing, pull of love.
Can they overcome their fears and pride, or will the truth steal their possibility of a storybook ending?
When fake dating isn’t fake anymore how do you excuse the other things that are?
School is just something to endure for Malachi Levens. He spends his days in a silent solitude he’s become accustomed to. He’s okay with his reality yet when his mum asks him about his social life, he lies to keep her worrying at bay; but when he’s caught in a lie, he accidentally crafts another and drops Kenedi’s name right in it.
Kenedi Hill’s life is the exact opposite of Malachi’s, where she spends her days surrounded by friends and love; her home life is filled with tension. Her relationship with her mother has recently reached an all-time low and she’s looking for a lifeline.
Kenedi and Malachi meet by chance. They’re opposites in nearly every way with their similarities just under the surface and they soon become unlikely friends; but when Kenedi is thrown headfirst into one of Malachi’s lies, instead of running for the hills she agrees to help him.
What starts as a one-off, swiftly turns into a full-blown fake relationship, filled with café meet-ups, meeting the parents, hours spent together, merging friendship groups, evening walks and late-night calls. And when real feelings start to mix with fake ones, how do you differentiate between the two?
