Graham Russell and I weren't made for one another. I was driven by emotion; he was apathetic. I dreamed while he lived in nightmares. I cried when he had no tears to shed. Despite his frozen heart and my readiness to run, we sometimes shared seconds. Seconds when our eyes locked and we saw each other's secrets. Seconds when his lips tasted my fears and I breathed in his pains. Seconds when we both imagined what it would be like to love one another.

It was easy to call us forbidden and harder to call us soul mates. Yet I believed we were both. Forbidden soul mates. When I arrived in Edgewood, Wisconsin, I didn't plan to find him. I didn't plan to stumble into Joe's bar and have Daniel's music stir up my emotions. I had no clue that his voice would make my hurts forget their own sorrow. I had no idea that my happiness would remember its own bliss.

I've had many moments in my lifetime, moments that changed me, challenged me. Moments that scared me and engulfed me. However, the biggest ones - the most heartbreaking and breathtaking ones - all included him. I was 10 years old when I lost my voice. A piece of me was stolen away, and the only person who could truly hear my silence was Brooks Griffin. He was the light during my dark days, the promise of tomorrow, until tragedy found him. Tragedy that eventually drowned him in a sea of memories.

There once was a boy, and I loved him. Logan Francis Silverstone and I were complete opposites. I danced, and he stood still. He was quiet while I ran my mouth. He struggled to find a smile, and I refused to frown. The night I saw the darkness that truly lived inside of him, I couldn't look away.

Once upon a time, I fell in love with a boy. A beautiful, broken boy who had his own world of struggles. People warned me against our love, but I didn't listen. We looked weak. Young, foolish. Dangerously in love. We didn't care. In order to keep our hearts protected from the opinions of others, we became each other's secret. We shared stolen moments. Tender touches. Secretive embraces. It was our twisted love story, and it worked for us up until our lives changed forever.

Greyson East left his mark on me. As the young girl who first fell for him, I didn’t know much about life. I did know about his smiles, though, and his laughs, and the strange way my stomach flipped when he was near. Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again.

Each day I prayed for my husband to love me again. After 15 years together, he walked away from me, and into the arms of another. I didn’t know how to cope. I didn’t know my worth. I didn’t know how to exist without him by my side. All I wanted was for him to come back to me. Then, Jackson Emery appeared. He was supposed to be a distraction for my mind. A summer fling. A confidence boost to my bruised heart. We were perfect for one another, because we both knew we wouldn’t last. Jackson didn’t believe in commitment, and I no longer believed in love.

Falling in love wasn't the plan. But how could I resist his promises of hope? Of forgiveness? Of a future I had stopped dreaming of? We were shattered. We were scarred. We were something strange and beautiful. We were two lost souls holding on to the only thing that could keep us together. Each other.

I was warned about Tristan Cole. "Stay away from him," people said. "He's cruel." "He's cold." "He's damaged." It's easy to judge a man because of his past. To look at Tristan and see a monster. But I couldn't do that. I had to accept the wreckage that lived inside of him, because it also lived inside of me.

Die neue Reihe von Brittainy C. Cherry. Als ich meine neue Stelle als Nanny einer reichen Familie antrat, konnte ich nicht ahnen, dass es Greyson Easts Kinder waren, die ich betreuen würde. Und auch nicht, dass der Junge, den ich einmal geliebt hatte, zum Mann geworden war - ein eiskalter, einsamer, unnahbarer Mann. Alles an Grey war in Schmerz versunken. Doch ab und zu sah ich den Jungen von damals in seinen sturmgrauen Augen - und ich wusste, dass es sich um ihn zu kämpfen lohnte. Auftakt der herzzerreißenden CHANCES-Reihe von SPIEGEL-Bestseller-Autorin Brittainy C. Cherry.

Shay Gable hated my guts, and I hated hers, too. We went out of our way to avoid one another at all times. When she came in my direction, I went the other. When we locked eyes, she’d turn and walk away. All of that changed the day I was presented with a challenge. It started out as a stupid bet: make Shay fall in love with me before I fell in love with her first. That was an easy bet for me to win. I didn’t love. I hardly liked. Yet slowly the game started to shift. Shay made me crave things I never knew I wanted.

Każdego dnia modliłam się, żeby on znów mnie pokochał. Zostawił mnie dla innej, nie wiedziałam, jak sobie z tym poradzić, jak bez niego żyć. Chciałam jedynie, by do mnie wrócił. Ale pojawił się Jackson Emery. To miał być tylko letni romans. Zastrzyk pozytywnej energii dla pogruchotanego serca. Byliśmy dla siebie idealni, ponieważ oboje wiedzieliśmy, że nasz romans nie potrwa zbyt długo. Jackson nie wierzył w związki, a ja straciłam wiarę w miłość. Wszystko było dobrze, aż pewnej nocy moje serce zgubiło rytm.

Er glaubte nicht an Versprechen. Und sie glaubte nicht mehr an die Liebe. Er war nicht der Richtige für sie. Sie war zu zerbrochen für ihn. Sie waren perfekt füreinander, weil sie wussten, es wird nicht für immer sein. Bis sie nicht mehr ohne einander sein können, als der Moment zum Abschiednehmen gekommen ist.

Sich in Jasmine Greene zu verlieben, fühlte sich an wie ein warmer Sommerregen. Leicht und unbeschreiblich schön. Aber als wir uns Jahre später wieder gegenüberstehen, ist von dem Sommerregen nichts mehr übrig. Stattdessen sehe ich in ihren Augen einen tosenden Sturm. Wie lange tobt er schon dort? Wie lange hat er sich schon in ihrer Seele zusammengebraut? Ihr Herz ist für immer gebrochen, und ich hasse mich dafür, dass ich es jetzt erst bemerke - wo es vielleicht schon zu spät ist.

Notre vie est faite de moments. Certains terriblement douloureux, d'autres merveilleusement optimistes. J'ai connu beaucoup de ces moments dans ma vie, des moments qui m'ont changée, des moments de défi. En tout cas, au cours des moments les plus importants - des plus déchirants et des plus incroyables - il était toujours là. J'avais huit ans quand j'ai perdu ma voix. Une partie de moi m'a été volée, et la seule personne qui pouvait vraiment entendre mon silence était Brooks Griffin.

Tristan et Elizabeth sont voisins, ils n'ont rien en commun à part leur passé douloureux. Elle a choisi de continuer à vivre ne serait-ce que pour sa petite fille Emma. Il a choisi de s'extraire du monde. Mais Elizabeth ne l'entend pas de cette façon. Elle sait qu'ils sont tous les deux en miettes et qu'ensemble ils seront plus forts pour affronter leurs fantômes.

Deux amis que tout oppose en apparence, mais qui au fond se ressemblent, brisés par des relations familiales difficiles, tombent amoureux jusqu'à devenir une drogue l'un pour l'autre. Elle a toujours été la femme de sa vie, et lui pour elle, son plus douloureux échec. Parviendront-ils à vivre l'un sans l'autre ?

Graham Russell et moi n'étions pas fait l'un pour l'autre. Mes émotions me dirigeaient et il était apathique. Je rêvais tandis qu'il vivait dans les cauchemars. Je pleurais quand il n'avait aucune larme à verser. Malgré son cœur glacé et mon envie de fuir, nous partagions parfois des instants. Des instants où nos yeux se rencontraient et où nous voyions nos secrets. Des instants où ses lèvres goûtaient mes peurs et où j'aspirais sa douleur. Des moments où nous imaginions ce que ce serait de s'aimer.

Cooper Davidson is a famous photographer and reality television star trying to flee from his own life filled with paparazzi, mental health clinics, and a cheating wife who is pregnant.

When I first met Jasmine Greene, she came in as raindrops. I was the awkward musician, and she was the high school queen. The only things we had in common were our music and our loneliness. Something in her eyes told me her smile wasn't always the truth. Something in her voice gave me a hope I always wished to find. And in a flash, she was gone. Years later, she was standing in front of me on a street in New Orleans. She was different, but so was I.
