The Will To by woodlander8

Will is a slut. At least, according to everyone else she is. With a past that both defines her and won't let her go, Will has had enough of the name-calling and assumptions. She's decided to use it all as fuel to get what she wants: to take down Reid Reynolds. Reid is a "bad boy" (a term that makes Will's eyes cross into oblivion) and he represents everything that Will despises. He is a TA in one of her university classes, making her plan even easier. She has an entire year to follow through with her agenda. No problem. It's all under control. Except it isn't. When women start getting assaulted on campus, everything Will is running from begins to catch up with her. She will inevitably have to face it--and decide if getting revenge on the bad boy will actually get her what she wants. NaNoWriMo2021 Warnings: sexual assault, mentions of rape, and stalking.

What If I Was Nothing? by FearghalLorcan

They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.

Emma thought her life was already too busy with college and her part-time job, but everything changes when she befriends Ryan-a quiet, sleepyhead with a mysterious charm. Their friendship begins with stolen moments in the storage room, quiet naps during lunch breaks, and the occasional banter. But as winter deepens, so do their feelings, and Emma starts questioning why her heart skips a beat whenever Ryan is near. Ryan, on the other hand, isn't sure what's happening to him. Emma is his first real female friend since middle school, and the warmth of her smile lingers in his thoughts far longer than he'd like to admit. He tells himself it's just friendship, but can it really be that simple? As they navigate their growing bond, secrets are shared, misunderstandings arise, and moments of unexpected closeness leave them both questioning if they're just friends or something more. Will Emma and Ryan have the courage to face their feelings, or will they let their unspoken emotions drift away like the last snow of winter? Get ready for a heartwarming, slow-burn romance filled with cozy moments, emotional twists, and the kind of love story that feels like home.
