Hey Put On A Happy Face

I was in the office bathroom stall when I heard them trash-talking me. The intern I'd trained for three months whined, "She's a heartless witch—like a robot with zero brain cells." I was about to swing the door open when another voice jumped in, laughing. "Documents incomplete." "Receipts don't match." "No signature? Denied." "Seriously, we've all memorized the freaking rulebot's script!" Once they were gone, I headed back to my desk. The intern stormed in and slammed a fat stack of reimbursement forms in front of me. "Don't go on another power trip and block everyone's claims." I skimmed the obviously fake receipts. Normally, I'd tear into her. But this time, I just smiled. "My head's killing me. Can't read the fine print."

Amelia Carter has always believed that some lines exist for a reason. At twenty-one, she is focused on finishing university, working late evenings as a library assistant, and keeping her life quiet and predictable. Love is the last thing on her mind until Ethan Brooks walks into her world and turns everything upside down. Ethan is confident, guarded, and completely forbidden. Their connection is instant, undeniable, and dangerous in ways Amelia never expected. What begins as harmless conversations and stolen glances slowly deepens into something intense something neither of them should want, yet cannot resist. As emotions grow and boundaries blur, Amelia is forced to confront a painful truth: the heart does not obey rules. With secrets threatening to surface, loyalties tested, and consequences closing in, loving Ethan may cost her everything she has worked so hard to protect. Love They Shouldn’t Have is a slow-burn, emotionally charged forbidden romance that explores desire, restraint, and the aching question of what happens when loving the wrong person feels more right than anything else.

I fought my sister, Anna, for two lifetimes to become the Donna. In my first life, I got what I wanted. I became Lorenzo's woman. People said he loved me as if I were the air in his lungs. When he learned that I loved to dance, he bought an entire ballet company to keep me onstage. Then he broke my legs. He confined me to a wheelchair and displayed me like an ornament. One day, he brushed his fingers across my face and finally told me the truth. "I've seen enough dancing," he said. "And the one I truly love was never you." I died in that room, swallowed by despair. In my second life, I stepped aside and gave the Donna's seat to Anna. "You go," I told her. "The one Lorenzo really loves is you." I believed that choice would save us. I believed Anna would have the happy ending I never did. Five years later, they sent her back. Her legs were intact this time, but she couldn’t move them either. Lorenzo no longer treated her as a person. He had turned her into a ballerina statue, encased in plaster and posed at what he called her most beautiful moment, frozen in place. His men delivered the message without a trace of feeling. "He got tired of watching the younger sister dance," they said. "So he preserved her at her most beautiful." When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in my third life. Once more, the Don's men delivered a ballet invitation. Anna and I stared at it. The same question burned in both of us. If neither of us was the one he loved, then who was Lorenzo really watching?
