In a world of money, fame, and all the champagne that came with it, Camsy Colbert, the famous wedding planner, was alone. But it was fine; she was totally cool with being single. Men could never hold a steady relationship anyway. She's invited to her cousin's wedding, a wedding she's planning, and so is Parker Wellington, the guy who almost changed her view towards men. Almost. The heat of this three-day event mingled with all the buzz in the air forces, the two of them together, and reignites an almost forgotten flame. Five years ago. |Wattpad featured| #1in adultromance #1in romcom #2in newadult #17in humor ©AOFunke 2021

(First DRAFT in The Crimson Series) A Missing Girlfriend, A Dangerous Adoptive Father, A Lustful Adoptive Mother, and A girl with longing eyes. When Asher was young, he stumbled upon Juliet as she twirled through the vacant halls of Rosewood Academy. Her beauty was enticing, so in hopes of getting a closer look, he stepped out of the shadows, and while her eyes captured him, her feet never stopped moving. For once, his mind wasn't occupied with his anger for his sister, or his mother's final screams, and before he knew it, Juliet fell into his arms. A smile reached her lips, and at that moment, Asher knew he would never let her go as she guided him across the hall in a tight embrace. Every tragedy that ever happened in Asher's life flashed before his blue irises, but Juliet, in all her splendor, brought to life every fantasy he ever imagined. Juliet took Asher's hand, and she didn't release him until he was clothed in diamonds, expensive suits, and Clive Christian's Imperial cologne. Only the best for the boy she loved more than her own life. Their love was cosmic, but the Goulding's molded Asher into their image over time until he walked with luxury. The dreadful night of Asher and Juliet's engagement took Goulding Manor by storm as Juliet's car drove over Hell's Gateway bridge, sending the lover's miles into an endless lifetime without each other. When Asher wakes up in the hospital, he has no memory of Juliet except for a beautiful nightmare. Now Asher has to protect Juliet's latest project, Margo Kennedy, in hopes of remembering the beauty of Rosewood Academy without dying at the hands of her father. Will Asher's love for Juliet conquer the wrath of David Goulding, or is their love already tainted?

"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.

Tae Shin is a simple boy with simple dreams, who likes to hide his half-forgotten past into the shadows of his low self-esteem. Kim JaeHwan is a sole heir to a gigantic multi-billion conglomerate, who likes to reminisce the ghosts of his happy childhood a little more than what is healthy.

Only JaeHwan remembers the pretty parts; Shin is left with hollow nightmares of his childhood abuse and a crippling case of amnesia. When fate places them together once again, in the elite school of Royal Boys High, JaeHwan's memories blur and fuse with his fantasies. Where he dreams of loving his lost childhood friend once again.
