Not everyone gets lucky enough to find their soul mates. Even fewer people are lucky enough to keep them around. Corey and bailey have been inseparable since 1993 and after a few years of having to be apart they don't themselves in a new city living out their dreams. Together they find adventure and sweet memories in the Windy City. And they rediscover a love that's been there the whole time but never spoken of. Never acted upon. Not until it was too late to say anything. Together they learn to try to control their feelings for each other, too afraid to lose what they already have. But sometimes it's easier to take the bridge over troubled waters than to try and run through it.

Caroline is the daughter of the greatest goalie to ever play the game. Even though her mother passed years before, she followed in her parents footsteps to write, and to write about hockey. She meets up and coming goaltender Corey Crawford on the way to training camp and they quickly become friends. Corey finds her interesting and she sees a lot of her father in him. They hit it off but there's a few problems. One is that Corey is in a relationship whether he wants to admit it or not. Another is that Caroline's sweet and soft personality does not match Corey's dangerous and outgoing one. But in times of need it's each other they lean on and support. Eventually their true feelings come out but the fear is that it is too late. Can they be together or will fate find a way to keep them apart?

🅦🅐🅣🅣🅨🅢 ➋⓿➊➑ 🅢🅗🅞🅡🅣🅛🅘🅢🅣 (𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 2) **Incomplete/on hold** During a terrible nationwide drought, desert--land stretches as far as the eye can see. Corbin is a Water Witcher, who can sense and find water beneath the ground, but doesn't advertise it due to fear of being enslaved for government purposes. Drifting through the wasteland, he runs into a pair of siblings desperate to survive and learns that first impressions are deceiving. Especially Everleigh. There's a child-like innocence about her, yet she shows zero hesitation in murdering a desert thief. Thanks to past betrayals, Corbin keeps to himself, but a barbaric new law forces him to step out of his comfort zone. There are ways around this law, some are legal, but most are not. Either way, he's is not losing sight of the two siblings and will even risk revealing his gift of water witching if it means helping them. Limits are tested, loyalty is questioned, and trust becomes fragile, but if there is one thing threading their lives together, it's the determination to survive living in a time of thirst. ♡♡ What the critics are saying ♡♡ "I just wanted to tell you that your first chapter was one of the best intro chapters I've read on Wattpad.

During a massive drought, a Water Witcher goes trekking across several states to visit a friend but finds himself in danger when a group called The Hounds begins hunting him down. 𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 1 ~ 🅦🅐🅣🅔🅡 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 Corbin has been witching water since he was a young boy. It's a skill his grandfather taught him to survive living in a time of thirst. He also taught him never to venture farther than their property because the world had become too dangerous with people fighting over water. As an adult, however, he finds himself alone. The home he once shared with his grandfather feels more like an empty shell with echoes of memories. Deciding to head for the road to visit a friend, he sets out to wander what's practically become a wasteland. Except, he soon discovers that since his last adventure north, Water Witchers are being captured and sold to high bidders by a group called The Hounds. With his friend Coyote living up north, a few states away, he'll have to figure out how to get there safely, but it won't be easy with danger at every turn. * * 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧: ~Editor's Pick - Oct 7, 2022~ @Wattpad - Adrenaline Rush @WattpadExplorer - Adrenaline Rush @WattpadDarkFantasy @Adventure - Featured Stories @Fantasy - Featured Fantasy @Mystery Featured Mystery @Adultfiction - Featured Adult Fiction @Action - Featured Action Stories

He thought he'd buried the past. She just wanted coffee. Neither expected fate... or a dog with matchmaking ambitions. Blake McAllister is a quiet rancher with calloused hands, a guarded heart, and a secret fortune he keeps as well-hidden as his pain. After losing his father and the woman who walked away when he needed her the most, Blake chose solitude over second chances. His only companion? Rex-a loyal, oversized dog who may or may not be meddling in his love life. Emma Carter is juggling too many jobs and not enough sleep, splitting her time between Prairie Ridge Hospital as a physiotherapist and Prairie Perk Café just to stay afloat. The last thing she expects is to literally run into a mysterious cowboy... especially one grumbling about scarves, fender benders, and his "clean driving record." Their accidental encounter sparks more than just mild chaos. But trouble isn't far behind. Carrie-the woman from Blake's past-is back in town with secrets, smiles, and a hidden agenda. And as emotions rise, truths unravel, and sparks fly, Blake must decide if he's ready to fall again... or if he's destined to keep running from the very thing he needs most. *Copyright ©️ *Mature Content
