A Heartbeat Hidden in Time

[Coming-of-age + secret crush + school life + city life + love that grows over time]

At thirteen, Lin Yiyi fell in love at first sight with the handsome Li Li. Everything he did made her heart flutter, and so began her long, secret crush. But all her affection earned her was Li Li's indifference.

Then another boy appeared, changing everything. Before she knew it, Lin Yiyi had fallen for someone else.

When Li Li saw that Lin Yiyi was going out of her way to avoid him, his possessiveness spiraled out of control. He forced his way into her life and forbade her from seeing anyone else. Once, when Lin Yiyi refused to meet him, Li Li cornered her. His eyes reddened as he said, domineering yet tender, “You can only be mine.”
