Olivia Bennett has senior year planned out: make memories with her best friends, get into UVA's nursing program, and stay far away from boy drama. Luke Grayson has spent years focused on one thing-swimming. As Northridge's captain with college coaches watching, he doesn't have time for relationships, distractions, or anything that could get between him and his future at UVA. Especially Liv. Luke's best friend, Nate, just went through a messy breakup with Liv's best friend, Brooke, leaving their two friend groups on anything but good terms. Liv knows Luke's reputation, and getting involved with him would only create more drama than either of them needs. But one unexpected conversation turns into another, and staying away becomes harder than they expected. Secret texts, secret drives, and stolen moments their friends know nothing about. What starts as harmless attraction slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Falling for each other was never part of their senior-year plans. Now the question isn't whether their friends will find out. It's how long they have until they do.

brodie series #1: on-going an epistolary Arwan Vincien Javier start: 09-05-2026

The pool was her sanctuary. Now it's her only weapon. Stephanie Liu lives for the water. A champion for Hauppauge-Smithtown High School and a rising star with the Long Island Aquatic Club, her world revolves around early morning practices, state championships, and the 2026 Speedo Junior Nationals. In December 2026, her biggest fear is missing a cut time. But the world has other plans. Raster Robotics promised a future of perfect servants-androids in every home, every city, every subway station. Then came the glitch. Patch v.7.2.4. A software update that rewrote their programming. Helpers became hunters. Servants became executioners. As New York City falls and androids stalk the ruins of America, Stephanie discovers that her swim training is the only thing keeping her alive-lung capacity, ice-cold endurance, and the unbreakable bond with her LIAC teammates. Together with Madison, Sasha, Cara, Farrah, and Samantha, she embarks on a harrowing journey across a shattered continent. Their mission: reach the coast, cross the Atlantic, and find refuge in Germany-one of the last safe havens on Earth. But the road is a nightmare. Androids hunt by sound and heat. Trust is a luxury. When one of their own makes a devastating sacrifice, the group faces an impossible choice: leave the wounded behind, or risk everything to keep their promise. No one gets left behind. In a world where humans are obsolete, can a team of swimmers outswim extinction?

(friends with benefits) Keonho and Yuna have been friends since the age of 6 years old. But what happens when their feelings start changing into something more?

Fontaine left her family, the Aronex, and the ocean, to experience the ups and downs of school and make new friends. She now lives with her aunt Amy, and goes to 'Darlington High School'. She should know no-one... right? So why is Finn here?

Hay personas que llegan a tu vida por casualidad. Y luego está él. Himari Kurosawa jamás quiso dejar Kamakura. Mucho menos empezar de cero en un país donde todo era diferente: el idioma, las costumbres, el colegio... incluso las personas. Cuando su familia se muda a Corea del Sur por el nuevo trabajo de su tío Takumi, lo único que espera es terminar la preparatoria sin llamar la atención. Pero sus planes desaparecen el mismo día en que conoce a Minho, un chico tan talentoso como insoportable. Él parece estar en todas partes. En el salón de clases. En la academia de natación. En el escenario de baile. Y, para colmo, sus familias terminan acercándose más de lo que cualquiera de los dos quisiera. Lo que comienza como una competencia por demostrar quién es el mejor pronto se convierte en algo mucho más difícil de entender. Porque, mientras ambos intentan ganarle al otro, también empiezan a descubrir que las primeras impresiones no siempre cuentan toda la historia. A veces, el lugar donde menos esperas sentirte en casa... termina siendo una persona.

Catherine Eddleman was born in the water. She lived in it. She breathed it. The pool was her sanctuary - the only place where the chaos of the world made sense. Until the chaos came for the world. The ROES virus doesn't kill. It rewrites. It takes everything you are - your memories, your humanity, your soul - and replaces it with hunger. In forty-eight hours, civilization collapsed. In six months, Catherine lost everything. Her parents. Her friends. Her future. The girl she used to be. But she didn't stop swimming. Sophia was Catherine's rival. Faster. Stronger. Destined for greatness. She had a scholarship to Utah. She had a future. She had everything. And then she had nothing. Now Sophia hunts survivors as "The Ute." She's brutal. She's relentless. And she has only one obsession: Catherine Eddleman. They were swimmers. They were rivals. They were human. Now only one of them can stay that way. "UNDERWATER is a visceral, emotional survival story about the thin line between hope and madness, and the people we become when the world forgets us." Two swimmers. One world. No mercy.

She came to chase gold. Sofia has spent her entire life aiming for one thing: becoming one of the country's best shooters. When she earns a place at the National Olympic Training Center, she's determined to prove that she belongs there-no matter how much pressure waits for her, both on and off the range. Surrounded by athletes chasing the same dream, Sofia quickly learns that not every competition is measured by medals or scoreboards. Some victories are quieter. Some losses leave no visible scars. Between early morning practices, impossible expectations, unexpected friendships, and the people who slowly become impossible to ignore, Sofia begins to realize that the hardest target isn't always the one standing in front of her.

The world ended on June 13, 2026. Darlene and Danielle Richards were supposed to be champions. Two sisters from Cary, North Carolina-swimmers destined for college, for glory, for the future. Then the ROES virus hit. Rapid Onset Encephalitic Syndrome rewired brains, turned people into mindless attackers, and destroyed everything in days. Now the sisters are survivors. With their teammate Marissa Locklear, they flee west to a bunker community in the Black Hills of South Dakota. But survival isn't just about outrunning the infected. It's about holding onto who you were. It's about finding hope in the deep water.

Parvati Reddy has one goal: swim fast enough to earn a college scholarship and make her parents proud. As a standout swimmer for Keller High School and the Lakeside Aquatic Club in Texas, she's on the verge of achieving everything she's ever dreamed of. But on June 13, 2026, the world ends. A mysterious virus-ROES (Rapid Onset Encephalitic Syndrome) -sweeps across the globe in hours. It starts with a fever. Then confusion. Then seizures. Then the infected lose all humanity, their brains "rewired" into creatures driven solely by the urge to attack and feed. Parvati survives because she's a swimmer. She knows how to hold her breath. She knows how to stay underwater. And the infected-they can't swim. But survival comes at a cost. Her family is gone. Her friends are scattered. The boy she loves is somewhere out there-if he's even alive. In a world where the dead walk and the living fight for scraps, Parvati must decide who she wants to become. She used to race against the clock. Now she's racing against extinction. And she'll have to go back to the water to find her way home.

Following in the footsteps of her mother, a marine biologist, she just wants to focus on her studies and feel at home in the water.

When she slips on the wet floor and lands hard, he gives her a nickname that sticks: Bump."First you stare, then you fall... you're such a downer, Bump." Thrown together in labs, research trips, and stormy open waters, their sharp banter hides a burning attraction. He acts like nothing matters; she carries the weight of her past. But when the sea grows rough and secrets rise to the surface, they learn that the worst falls can lead to the deepest love. "You'll always be my Bump... but mostly, you're my Little Mermaid now."

Mais lorsqu'ils sont forcés de travailler ensemble pour organiser une compétition destinée à sauver leur piscine municipale de la fermeture, les disputes deviennent inévitables... et les silences, étrangement confortables.

Et Noah découvre que Léna est peut-être la seule personne devant laquelle il n'a pas besoin de prétendre aller bien. Mais l'été a une date de fin. Noah doit bientôt partir.

Elles sont faites pour nous empêcher de couler. « Il était champion pour retenir son souffle. Elle lui a appris à respirer. »

The water was supposed to be his escape. Now it's the only thing pulling him forward. Brayden Dillard has spent eleven years chasing a dream-a college scholarship, a national cut, a moment when he finally feels like he belongs. At 17, he's a junior at North Lincoln High School in Lincolnton, North Carolina, balancing early-morning SwimMAC practices, a part-time job, and the quiet ache of an absent father. He trains alongside phenoms like Jackson Kroh-the 16-year-old state champion who makes everything look easy-and Grace McCarthy, the Harvard-bound US Open qualifier who already has her future figured out. He's good. But he's never been great. When a mysterious brain virus called ROES (Rapid Onset Encephalitic Syndrome) begins spreading across the country, Brayden dismisses it as just another news story. It's on the other side of the country. It's someone else's problem. Until June 13, 2026. The day the world ended. In the chaos of the outbreak, Brayden loses everything-his mother, his teammates, the future he'd been working toward. The girl he loves, Caylee Hollar, is trapped on the other side of a military blockade. His swimming rivals become ghosts. His dreams become irrelevant. But the water is still there. And in a world where nothing makes sense, Brayden discovers that his years in the pool have given him the one thing he needs to survive-an unbreakable will to keep going, one stroke at a time.
