[Watty Awards 2019 Winner - New Adult!] Damian Ryker is something of a nomad. In his 22 years of life he's moved a grand total of 14 times. But he's here to stay this time, honest. He's already got himself a cushy new job in town and he's exploring the popular local shops, like that coffee shop down the road. It seems nice enough, perhaps a little too hipster for his taste and the barista is awkward, if not the slightest bit weird. But there's something strange about the innocuous café, like-oh I don't know-earthquakes that seem to destroy it every morning before miraculously repairing themselves and leaving him with the only memory of it. And just when that sounded a tad off, things start to get...a little out of this world. ------------ This was my 2017 Nanowrimo story that I couldn't quite fall out of love with. Inspired by the fun and fascinating world of fan fiction AUs, I hope you'll have as much fun with this as I had writing it!

Have you ever had a secret crush on someone who you'll probably never have? Adam has. He has a crush on John, the schools most popular manwhore. John is as straight as a board...at least that's what he tells everyone. Adam, the sweetest boy you'll ever meet. He'd never hurt a fly. He's the innocent one of the school, the one all jocks and popular kids love to beat up and torment. He only has one or two friends in the whole 11th grade. Not that he minds. The issue is he's openly gay. The only thing he wants is a boyfriend, anyone would do. Preferably John John, the most popular guy in school who tends to be a manwhore. He slept with every girl in the 11th grade, most in 12th, a decent amount in 10th and only a handful of 9th graders. He's straight, that's what he tells everyone at least. John wouldn't waste his time trying to be gay, therefore he can't give Damian the time of day. There are many ways this story can go. Will it be happily ever after? A bumpy road? Absolute hell?

Setting his lawn on fire wasn't exactly how Garrett Grimaldi planned to start talking to his best friend's neighbor, Silas.

Growing unease with his boyfriend, looming responsibilities of adulthood, and his expanding relationship with Silas quickly begin to overwhelm Garrett. All he wanted was a good summer with his closest friends and some fond memories to look back on.

River Kelley is smart, perceptive, almost calculating, with an alluring smile and irresistible eyes he always takes advantage of whenever needed. He knows how to play his cards and likes to feel desired, nonetheless he will never entirely open his heart and mind to anybody. The only exception is represented by his best friend Aleksandr -Sasha- Lebedev, who seems to understand him deeply. Yet, River has secrets even with Sasha, who constantly represented his only special person. Why can't he open his heart completely and admit his true feelings? What has driven him to guard himself and always use his attractive, playful smile as mask? Trusting another person can often bring pain and disappointment, and River doesn't wish to taste such bitter feelings once more. What will happen if he meets the only person capable of melting his guard and matching all he wants and needs in a partner? At first River might not be able to let go of his inner fears and ghosts, and it will take a courageous, rather controversial decision to make him open his eyes and be true to his feelings. Nicholas Lucas is very intelligent and attractive, playing his cards openly, without any secrets or regrets. With a sensitive, understanding, yet confident disposition Nic might be the only man River can completely love with all his heart; he might be the only one becoming the true special person, seeing beyond those irresistible eyes, discovering the secrets hidden there. But will it be possible for Nicholas to break the mask and wall River has built around himself? Will he be able to make the young man love him unconditionally with complete trust? It will take a strong act of love and selflessness, and Nic is ready to take the risk to conquer and keep River's heart, because he never gives up on what or whom he wants. And definitely he will never give up after having met River, for when those irresistible eyes glanced at him the first time Nic knew he wanted to see what was hidden beyond them.

"There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable" Anatoly Denisov, or Tolya, used to be a delinquent and member of a gang, as the tattoos on his skin testify. After leaving the gang, Tolya had to work hard to re-build his past relationships especially with his twin brother, Dima. Nothing was simple, but he realized how his family and friends were more than ready to give him a second chance. Oleg Azarov, personal assistant and bodyguard of Tolya and Dima's father, was the man that made Anatoly open his eyes and face reality through harsh and effective methods and bike races, the only common passion they apparently share. But something happened when following the duties. Oleg grew attached to Anatoly in a way he could not afford, as he could not develop feelings for someone 14 yrs younger, and especially not for the son of the man that gave him a new life. There is a line clearly marking duties and loyalty and Oleg is not man to cross it. Anatoly calls Oleg a "sadistic and scary bastard" and cannot stand the fact he always speaks of duties whenever he refers to him, but there is something he can't deny: the burning physical attraction he feels for that man. Yet, he totally refuses to listen to his desire. But what happens to this equilibrium when Anatoly, the forbidden fruit and sweetest temptation, decides that he wants Oleg and will have him no matter what? What happens when constant temptation is first offered unintentionally and then deliberately, slowly scratching the line marking borders forbidden to cross? What will happen when forgotten past comes back to taunt Tolya? Duties, desires, principles, remorse, lust, attraction, obligation, guilt, rules, forbidden, allowed, bike races, adrenaline, excitement, resolution, need, gangs war, possessiveness, unleashed emotions, uncontrollable feelings and love. The love you cannot resist, the love you cannot fight. All clashes and fuses and confuses in this story of forbidden love.

The story is NOT edited; I apologize for the problem, but I shall edit it as soon as possible. Jasper Lucas is a shy, sweet and easily blushing, 17 years old student who loves to skateboard with his friends and spend time with his best friend, Travis Henderson. He is gay and his family hasn't accepted the fact and treats him coldly. His older brother Nicholas, however, is proud of him and loves him dearly. Thanks to Travis and his burning enthusiasm and persistence, Jasper's life is now brighter and happier. Thanks to Travis, Jasper has met and made new friends at school, which all like him and call him "cutie". But, what comes next? Jasper has an incredible and huge crush on Dmitri (Dima, for his friends) and he doesn't know what to do. Jas is too shy and timid to take matters in his hands. Perhaps he needs some advices from Travis and his well-known dirty mind... Oh boy, what to do? Dima is completely straight and horses around with girls, never getting serious about any of them; he is an outgoing, funny and easygoing Russian guy of 18 years, which resembles a huge blonde bear. He loves to play ice hockey with his best friends, to snowboard and sometimes to skateboard. He loves "Star Wars" and so does Jasper, and that's how their friendship started. Dima likes very much Jasper and his sweet and calm side, he finds himself wanting to help the little kid when he sees him down or sad. Dima likes Jasper, but just as a friend. Or is Dmitri only terribly dense? What will take Dima to realize Jasper isn't just a friend? Maybe a push from his friends, especially River and Travis. Maybe an unexpected rival; a new classmate who likes Jasper and keeps trying to flirt with him. Did I say one rival? Oh, my bad. Two new unexpected rivals. Will all of this make the funny grizzly finally realize he likes the cute koala more than a friend? Cover designed and made by Azer90
