Conor Kavanagh. The heartthrob of Tommen College. The biggest playboy in the school - cocky smirk, rugby jersey practically sewn onto him, always with a smart comment and that maddening wink. He's friendly, charming, flirty as hell. The kind of lad who'd carry your bag for you and somehow make it seem like your idea. But don't let that fool you - he's trouble. All sharp jawlines and swagger. And somehow, he's decided I'm his next bloody charity case. I hate it. I hate how he shows up when I don't ask, how he looks at me like I'm breakable. I don't need saving - I've got it sorted. The drink, the pills, the temper - all of it. My mess, not his. And every time I tell him to back off, to leave me be, he just gets closer, like I'm speaking in code. I don't need his pity or his perfect face. I don't need him. So why does part of me keep hoping he'll show up again tomorrow? *** Sinead Biggs. The reigning queen of Tommen. Sharp-tongued, sharp-eyed, and terrifying in heels. Everyone thinks she's just Cath's little sister - until she opens her gob and makes half the school cry before lunch. She walks those halls like she owns them, and honestly? She kind of does. The lads are scared of her. The girls want to be her. And me? I'm hopelessly, pathetically into her. Everyone knows it. My mates won't shut up about it. Even when she's tearing strips off me with that mouth of hers, I'm there grinning like a gobshite. Because deep down, I remember. I remember when we used to be best friends. When she used to laugh like a lunatic at my stupid jokes, when her hand would brush mine and neither of us would move away. But then came Owen Rice - the prick. Then came that night. The accident. The hospital. And when she came back, she wasn't the same. She'd built up walls with barbed wire. She'd become someone colder, louder, crueler. But I still see her. The girl I knew. And every once in a while, when no one's looking, I think she sees me too.

Rory Kavanagh. The best rugby player Tommen has ever seen-well, besides his da, obviously. Johnny Kavanagh. The Johnny Kavanagh. Our parents are basically joint at the hip, best mates since they were kids. And naturally, me and Rory just... became mates too. That's the deal. That's what we said we'd be. Friends. Right? Friends. But like-come on. Have you seen him? His abs? That man has a six-pack like he's sculpted from marble. His hair? Brown and silky, like-like a shampoo ad or somethin'. And those eyes? The kind of blue that makes you forget your own name. I swear to God, I'm not even being dramatic. So yeah... maybe I've a teeny, tiny, miniscule crush on him. Can you blame me? No. No, you can't. I won't hear it. But I'm not saying a thing. No way. What if he just laughs? That'd kill me. So for now, I'll just pretend I don't stare at him for longer than is normal when he talks. For now, it's just friendship. Grand. ...But what if he does feel the same? *** Bethany Gibson. Jaysus. She's been my best friend since we were in playschool, like actually since nappies. She's pure chaos-loud, mad, always in trouble for something-but I wouldn't change a thing about her. Not one thing. She's class. Gorgeous too. Not just like "oh she's grand," no-proper gorgeous. Her blonde curls bounce when she laughs, and I swear it's like the sun's just following her around. Her eyes? Silver. Like not even grey-silver, like a flipping fairy or something. Every time she looks at me, I forget what I was saying. Which is not ideal when you're trying to seem normal, right? I've fancied her since I was about seven. Maybe six. But what am I supposed to do? Tell her? What if she just laughs and goes, "Ah you're gas," and then pats me on the head like I'm some lost puppy? I'd actually evaporate from shame. But then again... what if she does like me back? What if all this time I was too scared to see it?

Sierra Esposito knew three things well. One- People were inherently evil and selfish. Two- Words are what got you hurt. Three- Sometimes it was easier to accept the situation, rather than fight back. These three rules got her through life-- not unscathed, but alive. Even when she didn't want to be. ... Giuseppe De Santis had been searching for his missing daughter, ever since she was taken all those years ago. When he finally gets the phonecall saying she's been found, he's ecstatic.

And when she isn't speaking to him or her brothers, it's almost impossible to get her to open up. They must learn to be a family again, but that's almost impossible.

On Tide Road, everyone knows the rules: boys grow up, things change, and you don't ask questions you aren't ready to survive the answers to. Elliot Sparrow Rivers has spent her whole life in the middle of two boys she loves-Quil Ateara, all sharp smiles and reckless heat, and Embry Call, quiet-eyed and gentle, the one who knows her too well. They've been inseparable since first grade. The Tide Road Trio. A joke. A given. A constant. Until it isn't. Embry disappears first. Quil follows. And Elliot is left behind-human, angry, and done waiting. When she finally confronts them, demanding answers and refusing to be excluded from whatever dangerous, secret world they've joined, fate answers back. Harder than anyone is prepared for. Imprinting was never supposed to look like this. Now Elliot is bound to two boys who are terrified she'll choose between them-boys who are hiding truths even from each other. The pack watches, waiting for violence. The elders whisper. Mothers worry. And the tide keeps pulling, whether they're ready or not. This isn't a love triangle. It's a knot. Hot, messy, emotionally feral, and a little doomed-Where the Tide Holds is a slow-burn Twilight AU about fate that refuses to be simple, love that won't stay quiet, and three hearts caught in the same current, daring not to break. Some things aren't meant to be chosen. They're meant to be held. #1 - BellaSwan 1/16/26 #1 - JaredCameron 1/16/26
