It only takes one moment to change your life forever.

It only takes one decision to alter the course of your future.

It only takes bravery to open your heart.

But once your heart is open...it's open to being shattered.

Lyra and her mom had little in the way of monetary comfort, but much in the way of love.  Lyra was happy, loved and joyously free when she was able to fly...to skate.  As long as Lyra had her mom, a home and a rink to skate at...life made sense.

One moment shattered it all.

Now Lyra has been sent to live with her absent father-the father that left her and her mom when she was a baby for another woman.  Far away from everything she has ever known she desperately tries to come to grips with the confusing and scary changes in her life.  It seems hopeless...it seems too difficult...and then life throws her another curveball in the way of her new stepbrothers.  

Xavier, Zachariah, Trenton and Tallis...The Parrish 4, the unmistakable kings of all they survey, and her new stepbrothers.  They don't like change.  They don't want an intruder in their lives.  They don't like their stepfather, and they definitely don't need his bratty kid moving in.  They don't want to want her...but what if what they want is not the same as what they need?

It only takes one moment to change your life forever-but it might take four guys to define it.

The Way Love Changes You; Book One: Love's Firsts by redisle_love
45 parts Complete Mature
Love can feel empowering. Love can be deadly. It can be the greatest thing to ever happen. It can be the biggest mistake that can't be reversed. It can feel like a dream come true. It can feel like a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Love changes people in many ways, from mild to severe, whether it's beneficial or detrimental in anybody's life, no matter if you're lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, or a person who just loves people without a label. How does love change you? ******* It's like your basic high school love story, except it's with adults in their early-mid 20s, and they're either still in college or have graduated from college and have jobs. It's a modern slice of life narrative novel about lesbians trying to find true love or wanting to get back into the love game. Five of these lovely characters share their own little tales of how love changes them first go, or their first time in forever! Their perspectives on love as it takes effect either get sensual, dramatic, or to the extent of a slow burn, as they also deal with life's obstacles along the way and share a part in each other's stories. There are ups and downs as their own stories go along, and it all gets more suspenseful towards the end where problems unfortunately arise. Will things get better or worse from here for these lovestruck lesbians as the story goes on? [Content/Trigger Warnings- the main warnings are scenes of sexual activity, and suicidal talk/attempt, along with mentions of said attempt. Everything else is listed inside the book! Please read the list before reading the book!] [Word count: +140,000 words...I write a lot, but enjoy anyway!]

Mrs Julia Robinson, the wife of American figure skating Olympian Adrian Robinson, is nervous about finally meeting her husband's family. After two years of marriage living in Amsterdam, they've decided it's time to move back to Virginia and give Julia the opportunity to meet the rest of her husband's family. The most important of them all is his close sister and best friend, Adreanna Jones. The flight to Virginia was long, but the car ride to Adreanna's house was short. Despite the short distance, the couple never made it there. Julia wakes up in a hospital, broken and alone. She learnt that they'd been in an accident that claimed her husband's life and sent her into a coma for 12 days. Heartbroken, depressed and disabled, she found herself stranded in a foreign country with no one to lean on. Or so she thought. Adreanna loved her brother more than anyone in the world. He was her father, mother, and best friend. He was her everything. Then he was gone. Julia was the closest thing left to her brother. Adreanna's intentions were to just get to know the woman her brother married, look after her on his behalf until she could look after herself again and eventually return home. But life wiped out those plans before they even cemented as the two women, in a time of hurt and grief, seeking closure, companionship and love, formed a bond they didn't even realise was growing until it was too late. Now they're stuck at a crossroads, having to decide between love and ethics. The sequel to Drea is out now. It is called Mrs Jones. You can find it on my profile. <3
