I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life.

Just right for me (Bwwm) (Complete)
Ariana Davis is back in New York. College life should be her chance to start fresh, but there's one problem-Quinn Ryans. The same Quinn who made her life a living nightmare throughout high school. The school's golden quarterback. The guy who always seemed to take pleasure in making her suffer. Now, years later, he's even more irresistible than before. Hot, confident, and with a reputation that has every girl at school swooning. But Ariana isn't fooled by the charm or the popularity. Not after everything he's done to her. Still, despite her best efforts to keep him at arm's length, there's an undeniable pull-one she can't ignore. He makes her feel things she thought she'd buried long ago. Things that stir up her anger, confusion, and-maybe-something else. Can she trust herself around him? Are these feelings real or just leftover resentment? And what happens when she realizes that maybe, just maybe, Quinn might not be the enemy she's always believed him to be? One thing's for sure: Ariana's not ready for the storm Quinn Ryans is about to bring into her life again. --- "Quinn? Quinn Ryans? The same Quinn who gave me a lollipop his baby cousin had thrown up on and me being ignorant happily licked it? The same Quinn who tied my shoelaces together and made me fall flat on my face? The same Quinn who pushed me into muddy waters with my white dress on awards day? The same Quinn who took the note I wrote confessing my feelings to my crush and read it to the whole school on the intercom? The same Quinn who dressed up as a scary beast and jumpscared me at night when I was five?" ...And it just got worse. -----Complete
Don't Fall Not Yet
Moving from Mexico to the wealthy, perfect suburbs of New York, María Hernandez's plan was simple: finish high school, keep her head down, and blend into the background. That plan lasted until she met Marcus Whitmore. Marcus is the town's golden boy-the star quarterback, popular, and untouchable. But the easy smile is a lie. His eyes hold a constant, dangerous storm, his home is full of secrets, and he has sworn off feeling anything real for anyone. The moment their worlds collide, they don't just fall; they break open. María is the calm he never knew he needed, and he's the dangerous chaos she should have run from the second she saw him. This is Don't Fall, Not Yet. Told in dual POV, this story is about the fight for identity, the ugly price of loyalty, and the devastating violence of secrets. It's about the impossible choice between protecting the people you love... and destroying them completely. Mature Audience Warning: 18+ Although María and Marcus's journey begins in high school, it will follow them into adulthood. Expect explicit content, strong language, messy emotions, and raw moments that don't shy away from the real challenges of growing up. I'm doing my best to reflect the richness and challenges of both Mexican and Anglo-American Elite experiences with honesty and care. If I ever miss the mark, please (gently) let me know-I'm always open to learning and doing better. Please read, share, vote, follow, and leave a comment. I'd love to hear your thoughts as you join María and Marcus on this unforgettable journey. © Scarlett Moon, 2025 This is a work of fiction. All rights reserved.
