College football star Reid Donahue's comeback is documented by sports media head Jo Lawrence, but as sparks fly between them, Jo must navigate both her career ambitions and growing attraction to the reserved athlete. *** When college football superstar Reid Donahue is ready for a comeback following a gruesome injury, the university tasks their head of sports media for a season-long piece on Reid's return to glory. Jo Lawrence knows that doing this piece is her in for a post-grad job at ESPN and is determined to make her way through a notoriously male-dominated industry. But Reid - reserved and withdrawn since his injury - is making things difficult for Jo at every turn...including the wind sprints her heart seems to do every time he looks at her across the football field. *** [2024 WATTY WINNER] [Wattpad HQ pick January 2025 & June-July 2025] [6x featured story] [18+] Copyright 2023-2025 | Taylor Romagnoli [moonraess]

Since skyrocketing to the tops of the charts after the release of their critically-acclaimed debut album, there's a lot of pressure to prove their worth with their sophomore effort, on top of keeping everyone in the band on the right track. And though Stevie, a woman set on committing her efforts to her burgeoning career, has had no plans on jumping into any sort of relationship, her growing friendship with Brendon Ellis derails that idea. As two highly-regarded figures in their respective fields, juggling their careers and feelings for each other requires effort. Stevie and Brendon must decide if they're willing to drive a thousand miles until their tyres wear out -- 'cause it's lights out and away they run. » featured on @FreeTheLGBT, @lgbtq, @StoriesUndiscovered, @Music, @ChickLit, and @Ambassadors « All rights reserved © Stephanie Midorii, smidorii

Keely Staub has grown up. At least that's what she thinks has happened. No longer a naive eighteen year old being introduced to a music industry that's equal parts grandeur and grime, she might even be considered a veteran. At just twenty six, she's lived almost too much of a life in the intervening years since she first came to New York. A great love and a great band, not to mention more than a few unsavoury addictions picked up along the way in the time honoured traditions of the rock stars before her. And she gave it all up - except the rock star part, of course. That was a different Keely Staub, a more innocent and wild one all at the same time. She's determined that person and all the things that came with her will stay in the past, and has a very clear path laid in front of her. A measured, smart, hopefully one day respected, path. The problem is the past refuses to remain the past.
