Ryan Lewis is known as a lot of things: a wife, a mother, a co-worker. However, the one thing she is not known as is weak. At 27 years old, she has gone through more than most people will in their entire life. When her past begins to creep up on her, will she give up or will she emerge resilient?

This story follows Ryan, her wife Eden, and their two adopted children, Blake and Zuri. Resilient explores topics such as homophobia, racism, mental health, and bigotry. I do not recommend this story for children under the age of 16 and this story is marked as mature.All Rights Reserved

Uncompromising (Age Gap, gxg) by Loiosh

With her almost 20 year marriage beyond repair, Demi Meadows is sick of playing games and being taken for granted. She needs something real, and someone who truly loves her instead of cheating on her for years. Her kids are almost out of the house, so it would be a perfect time to find a person to share her life with, and this time she isn't going to settle for anything less than the perfect person and the perfect love. But could that person be someone that she would never expect, like a one night stand that turns into a frequent visitor? Or is it too risky to go after someone who could rip her heart in two because of the different places they are in life and the similarities to her ex? What if perfect is an illusion? What if finding a perfect love is an illusion, because sometimes you can make your own perfect?

Pieces of Us by jmgwriter

Bailey is 14 and has endured a life of severe abuse, neglect, and trauma. He remembers bits and pieces. A house with soft blankets. A lady who smiled a lot. A boy who let him play with him. He remembers the way his dad used to hold him, like he mattered. But that was a long time ago. People leave. That's what they do. Bailey has always felt disconnected from the world, being Autistic and needing stability is something he once had and needs again. Caspian Elwood, a successful actor with a thriving career and a loving family, thought he had his life figured out. Married to his wife Lauren for twelve years, they've built a beautiful home with their two children, Finn, 14, and Eden, 8. But when a late-night call from a social worker shakes the foundation of his world, Caspian is faced with a devastating truth: his son Bailey, the one he's been supporting from a distance, has been neglected, possibly for years. Because maybe this time, someone came back. Will this make or break the family, or will this be the piece they were missing?

Broken Silence by U-niike101

Noelle was a normal, happy eight-year-old with two loving parents. But in an instant her world was shattered when a man came into her home and brutally murdered her parents in front of her. Orphaned due to the "Killer", she was left traumatized and unable to speak. Mute. Eight years later, she lives with two women that treat her like nothing and a man who wants to be more than just a loving father - a foster family that can't be called a family. When Gabriel Edwards, a peculiarly nice boy with stunning blue eyes, comes into her life, she finds her pessimistic view of the world slowly begin to change. But with her past constantly coming back to haunt her... Will she ever find happiness?

Rinse [manxman] by emily_dominique

As a former military man, Blake Sabriel understands that his best friend, Dakota Hart, has a duty to serve the realm. Perhaps that's why Blake doesn't mind looking after Dakota's three rambunctious children, or perhaps it stems from the fact that Blake is in love with him. Regardless of the reasons, Blake knows that he wants Dakota to return home quickly and safely. However, it's hard to concentrate on raising three kids and praying his best friend stays safe when his past is constantly lurking and just itching to sink its teeth into him again.

Fragile #Wattys2015 by marrleeee

Indigo Peterson lives in a fragile home with her fragile family. Her life is a constant struggle and she barely manages to keep herself alive. What will happen when more and more problems get thrown at her? Will she stay strong or will she crumble? "Growing up in a fragile home isn't romantic. It's not cute and it's definitely not desirable. When you hear your mother stumbling in at 2:17 AM with her "co-worker" and a bag of weed it isn't funny. When your younger brother flinches every time your father looks at him, it isn't comedic. When your little sister is always scared and muttering to herself and constantly getting thinner it isn't adorable. When your drunken father gambles away your college funds it isn't comedic. When you have to become the mother of your younger siblings it isn't brave. What it is, is tragic." WARNING: This story has some mature themes. Reader discretion advised.
