It wasn't their choice. Sloane Everly and Rafe Cameron were brought together by family names, summer parties, and expectations neither of them wanted. Every smile was measured, every laugh rehearsed, every touch a careful performance. They moved through sunlit beaches and glittering boardwalks, pretending a love they hadn't chosen, while the town whispered and their friends rolled their eyes. And yet, amidst the sun and the whispers, their hearts began rewriting the rules they had been forced to follow. Some hearts are found in the tides of a summer you never wanted.

Emerson Wilmore was an exemplary Ravenclaw student, known for her unwavering dedication to academics and an unyielding moral compass. However, things took a twisted and deviated turn in her life after her boyfriend, Cedric Diggory, was murdered by Lord Voldemort during the Triwizard Tournament. Now, in her Fifth-Year at Hogwarts, she is trying to navigate through her overwhelming and mind-numbing grief. Unexpectedly for Emerson, she finds herself caught in an unwanted storm of chaos that is brought by Mattheo Riddle, the Slytherin son of the man who destroyed her entire world. With his rebellious yet enigmatic, bad-boy attitude, Mattheo is everything that Emerson despises. For Mattheo however, he cannot help but be drawn to the perfect and unblemished Ravenclaw. Despite her palpable disdain for Mattheo, an unusual interest flickers. As he tries to unravel the mystery of the girl in any shape or form he can attempt, their hostile exchanges finally burn into a magnetic connection. Amid their blinding animosity towards each other, the two slowly start to discover that the line between love and hate is precariously thin, a line that they both find terrifying to cross. #1 slowburn #2 enemies to lovers #4 Mattheoriddle #2 harrypotter

Brooke Routledge has always been told to act upon risk. She regrets it all. The love, the vulnerability, the true form that she provided to him. It wasn't worth it, and the cruelest part was the act of throwing it back into her face. She doesn't think he ever loved her. How could you? It runs so much deeper than that. Neither of them knew what they were doing, how they were feeling, and how to fix it all-though, under everything, they wanted to fix it. Risk. It's what destroyed Brooke Routledge. But in a strange way, she wondered, could risk be what saves her? OBX ␥ Rafe Cameron & JJ Maybank © elegancies

𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇, Nicole Sterling and Rafe Cameron were once the Outer Banks' most infamous couple who was magnetic, dangerous, and completely addicted to each other. Their love was intense and reckless, built on secrets, late-night deals, and the kind of passion that blurred the line between love and destruction. Everyone knew they were bad news together, but neither of them could walk away. Then, a year ago, everything imploded. After a major incident that left Rafe arrested and alone, Nicole vanished without a word, leaving behind questions, betrayal, and a silence louder than any fight they ever had. Now Nicole's back and her return feels like a spark dropped in dry grass. Rafe, fresh out and trying to keep a grip on his sanity, can't ignore the ghosts she brings with her. The past lingers between them: the nights they swore it was over, the mornings they fell right back in, and the lies they told just to keep each other close. She looks the same, talks the same, but something in her eyes is different. Rafe has a decision to make... does he fall back into the chaos with the only girl who ever truly matched his fire, or walk away before the past consumes them both again?

They say nothing hurts more than a woman scorned, but heartbreak? That was just the start. Olympia Malfoy has always been the calm in the chaos, the youngest of the Malfoys and the quiet glue that held her circle together. She loved hard, especially when it came to Mattheo Riddle, the boy who vanished without a word. Two years later, he's back. Older, darker, and carrying more scars than stories. But Olympia isn't the same girl he left behind. As old feelings resurface and buried truths come to light, she's torn between the past she clung to and the future rushing toward her. With graduation looming and her world shifting, Olympia has to figure out if love is enough to patch what's been broken-or if some things are better left behind.

"why? you pushed me into dating him in the first place" "i hate him because he has you and i can't fucking stand it." "oh fuck you, riddle" - gabriella nott is basically a walking sunbeam, if sunbeams came with dimples and a habit of noticing everything you'd rather she didn't. mattheo riddle has spent years thinking he's totally fine with that... until he isn't. suddenly, she's everywhere, laughing at all the wrong things, dragging him into nonsense, and making him panic in ways he's sure are unnatural. which makes mattheo's most recent fuck up even worse - he may or may not have gotten involved in theo's quest to set her up with someone else, and mattheo decides that subtle sabotage sounds easier than admitting the truth to his friend. spoiler: it's not. mattheo riddle x f!oc social media x irl 'Could You Call This Love?'

- When the Pogues suggests using Briar to get information out of Rafe, it sounds simple enough. Pretend to care, get close, find out what he knows. Easy. Except Rafe isn't what the Pogues described as a crazy killer. Beneath the anger and the psychotic mess, there's something human there, something soft. Something broken that she can't help but want to mend. - After two years away, Brielle Logan Langley thought she'd left her non-biological family in Outer Banks behind. But when she moves back, nothing is the same. Rafe Cameron is a murderer, John B gets thrown into jail, and now they're on a new quest to find the cross of Santo Domingo. Through the journey Briar's caught between loyalty and the one person she swore she'd never fall for again. But she can't help the undeniable pull between them. She doesn't want to admit it, but her heart aches for Rafe Cameron. Set in Outer Banks, following the plot from s2-s3 tropes: - forced proximity - betrayal - angry love confession - one bed - mean to everyone but her - lovers, to enimies, to lovers - cleaning wounds !Read intro for disclaimers!

Adelina Hughes- a Kook with a Pogue heart. She sees the Outer Banks through a different lens, embracing those who feels like they don't belong. Her world is vibrant, filled with butterflies and the unwavering love of a father who supports her every dream. But one day, everything shatters. With no one to turn to, she's left with only one person who understands her pain- the one she despises most. Will this be the start of a new world for Addie? Or was betrayal inevitable all along? - He tenses, eyes flashing, but he doesn't fight back right away. Instead, he leans in slightly, lowering his voice just enough that only I can hear. "Easy, sweetheart," he murmurs. "At least let me buy you dinner before you try to kill me." I tighten my grip on his shirt and jerk him forward-not enough to actually hurt, just enough to keep up the illusion. "Shut up and make this convincing," I mutter. He grins, a devilish glint in his eye. "Oh, I plan to." - (forced proximity trope) (enemies to lovers trope) (best friend's brother trope) 😘 started writing: October 8 2024 ended writing: March 12 2025 *RATED MATURELY BECAUSE OF VIOLENCE* *COMPLETE* 🥇 rosecameron (03-10-25) (03-06-26) 🥇 enemiestolovers (03-27-25) 🥇 cleoanderson (04-09-25) (05-22-25) (07-05-25) 🥇 cameron (05-01-25) (07-04-25) 🥇 wardcameron (06-14-25) 🥇 obx (07-20-25) 🥇 p4l (02-19-26) (05-09-26) 🥇 johnbroutledge (03-10-26)
