If You Love Me by slybatspidow

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐤, 𝐁𝐮𝐠 by SojourningGhosts

𝐀𝐧 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭, 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐫, 𝐚 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐛𝐚𝐛𝐲 𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥. Sorrow, lust, fear, and impulsivity. These visceral emotions are bleeding anthropology; cut the wrist of humanity and watch them seep out. A small seaside town on the hazy coast of Newick, Washington understands the poetry of life better than anywhere else. The ocean rumbles and groans for the bitter, while the backroads carry away the renegades to the tune of cicadas and rain. It's a tired hollow, a place to rest your head on the outskirts of the world. But... word travels fast. Incandescent rumors turn to wildfire - all it takes is a morsel of gossip to feed a starving town, and curious night fellows are often the most hungry. That's an unfortunate truth for a girl with scarred hands, a man who made a mistake and a woman who he begs for forgiveness from, a strange, tattooed foreigner, and a quarterback that walks the streets with a stroller. What will become of them? Only time can tell, and she's the most ravenous of all... tragically, she already knows all their secrets.

Every Little Thing by SueLou66

Mallory finds herself brokenhearted when she loses the love of her life in a tragic accident. She's left to pick up the pieces of her life with the help of her best friend, Kendall. Her job as a neonatal nurse helps to keep her mind off of her broken heart when something unexpected happens; she comes face to face with Dr. Samuel Daniels. Will she find love again, or will her grief blind her from her second chance at love and happiness? *** "Kendall is under the illusion that you're in love with me. Can you believe that? I just buried my fiancé seven months ago. She told me not to be blinded by my grief, not to see that you love me," I sigh. I notice Sam lower his head. "I'm guessing that must have pissed you off." "It did! I don't want her to ruin the friendship that we have. I like how we are. You throw the love word in there, and it freaks me out." I fight back my tears. Sam raises his head to look at me. "Listen, Mallory. I would never do anything to jeopardize what we have. Please don't let other people's observations of our relationship mess that up, okay?" *** 1st Place in The Candy Cane Awards 🥇 2nd Place in the 2020 Universal Awards 🥈 2nd Place in the Books and Beyond Awards 🥈

Two Wrongs by daisydanielle33

This is not a love story... He doesn't believe in love. Or forever. Or soulmates or any of that shit. She believes in love. She just believes it will ruin you and she's sworn it off. Forever. If you're forced to coexist, you may as well enjoy it, right? What's the harm in a little fun if you already know that's where it ends? Because two wrongs definitely don't make a right.
