Playing with Fire
A grumpy/sunshine duo. A motorcycle rally. A slow burn MM romance with sparks, scars, and second chances. Carlos // The thing about fire is, you never notice how close you're standing until it burns. Chuck's that kind of fire-short fuse, sharp tongue, and the kind of stare that pins me in place. He drives me crazy, which would be fine if he didn't also make me laugh, listen, and look twice when no one else does. I told myself helping him plan this rally was just a favor for a friend. Then the late nights started feeling like something else entirely. Chuck // I don't do sunshine. I do engines, late shifts, and keeping my head down. But Carlos has this way of worming into my space, bright and relentless, until I start looking forward to the sound of his laugh more than the roar of my bike. He's everything I don't deserve. He's soft, open, good. And somehow, he's the one thing I can't seem to stay away from. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds. Each book can be read as a standalone, but together they weave a larger story of friendship, healing, and love in all its forms.

What Comes After Quiet
A companion to The Quiet Between Us Eli Hayes has always known how to live quietly-how to survive the sharp edges of high school, how to disappear into the corners of classrooms, how to bury his heart beneath poems no one else reads. But everything changed the day he stood his ground... and found that he wasn't alone. Now, after winter break, Eli returns to school not as the invisible boy, but as the one who spoke up. The one who was hurt. The one who kissed a boy and didn't look away. Navigating the halls is different now. There are eyes that linger. Whispers that follow. But there are also new voices-brave, kind ones-like the girl who stood in front of him when he needed it most. Eli begins to build tentative friendships, tiny bridges toward a world he never believed he could belong to. At home, his world remains divided. And in the quiet refuge of August's arms, love still blooms-warm, real, and no longer hidden. But as their relationship stretches into the open, the question looms: what happens when love is no longer a secret, but a stand? Tender, honest, and achingly real, What Comes After Quiet is a story about learning to speak, choosing to stay, and discovering that strength doesn't mean going it alone.Zakończone

READ FULL BEFORE STARTING THE STORY: TW: This book is written lightly, but has also some really serious themes that I want you to know about before reading. It talks about abuse and there are some scenes where a character is having a panic attack. If this is too close for you and you don't feel comfortable reading things like that then It might be best to not start reading /genuine <3 I want you to know before reading that this is a book with a good ending! I'm saying this because I know how devastating it is for some people after reading a story all night. If you've made it this far, thank you for reading! Much hugs to everyone:)Zakończone

The Snowy-haired Genius
Jason Williams didn't think going out to dinner with his family was going to be any different than usual. Comments about his sexuality, some teasing from his brothers, and lots of paparazzi. You know, nothing strange at all. But a fight with his father made Jason storm out of the restaurant, down an alleyway, and suddenly his life isn't the usual anymore. He woke up in an unfamiliar dark room, and a handsome boy opened his door to explain. The snowy-haired genius was holding him captive until he got what he wanted. Life couldn't be worse. Warning: This book contains mental issues such as depression, schizophrenia, and others. If you're sensitive to that kind of thing, then you should probably think twice before reading this. Of course, if you want to read it and you're sensitive, I'm not stopping you. This book only touches upon the subjects; It doesn't go deep into suicide attempts and voices. Remember despite the hate these mental illnesses receive, I believe you. Mental illnesses are no joke, they're not something I try to use for views. I am not hating on the illnesses. I know it's hard, but they are relevant to the book so I had to include them. If you're feeling depressed, please talk to a counsellor. Or, if you're too scared for that, I'll happily listen and give you advice. Thank you! (I needed to include this because I didn't want people thinking I thought the mental illnesses were stupid. I don't, I promise. I love you, and I need you to keep fighting!)Zakończone
