There’s something magical about reading when the world goes quiet — when your heart feels wide open, and the only thing you need is a story to get lost in.
If you’ve been craving fiction that feels like a warm bath for your soul (or a little red wine in literary form), this one’s for you.
These seven stories, all written and published by Lee on Wattpad, are full of emotion, mood, and magic. From poetic slow burns to mysterious thrillers and soft, intimate reflections, they’re made for readers who want to feel every page.
After catching her fiancé cheating, a pregnant hotel critic escapes to a wild, cliffside guesthouse run by a former flamenco dancer and her fiercely loyal chosen family—queer women who once defied a dictatorship with rhythm, rebellion, and love. Grilled sardines, old secrets, sunset dances, and one unforgettable summer await. → Found family. Flamenco at golden hour. A birth, a death, and the fierce joy in between.
Selena travels to Thailand to recover from tragedy. What she finds instead is a strange stillness, a kind caretaker named Than, and a love story told more through silence than words. But in a hospital where time slips and memories shift, reality begins to unravel. → A poetic, dreamlike story of grief, healing, and unspoken love. Content warning: themes of loss, medical trauma, and emotional complexity.
A tender collection of poems about soft love, brown skin in golden light, late-night longing, and the sweetness of staying—even when it hurts. → For lovers of softness, slowness, and skin-warmed poetry.
Poetry for the ones who fell quietly, loved almost, and remember too much. Every page is a soft ache—a hallway glance, a missed moment, a memory you can’t let go. → Gentle, sad, and beautifully intimate.
Hana wakes up missing a tattoo—and the memories tied to it. As the ink reappears, so do fragments of a buried secret she swore to forget. But some marks aren’t meant to fade… and someone else wants the truth hidden again. → A sharp, atmospheric mystery with memory, magic, and a supernatural twist.
What starts as a craving for snacks turns into a chaotic, hilarious trip through space—complete with talking fruit, emotional frogs, and goodbye wrapped in glitter and weirdness. → Whimsical, trippy, unexpectedly tender. Feels like crying from laughter and love at the same time.
There’s no record of Room 404—but Nawin gets assigned there anyway. He wants quiet. What he gets is Top: cocky, half-naked, and always in his way. Tension turns electric. Arguments get too quiet. And soon, the line between hate and want blurs into something neither of them expected. → A steamy, slow-burn roommate romance set in a room that doesn’t follow the rules—and neither do they.
