Isabella Darling craves only one thing - her parents approval. Never being particularly academic, sporty, or thin, her childhood was full of disappointing grade cards and juice diets. Not to mention her shameful secret girlfriend. Now, as a 22 year old working in early childhood in Oregon, she must return to her hometown in Mississippi when her father becomes ill. There, she'll discover secrets about her family and things about herself that she wouldn't have known if she continued to run away.
A story about family, acceptance, and loving yourself for who you are. Because no one's perfect. Especially not the Darling family.

A Different Kind of Love
Max was very different -- but in a unique way. That much Justin could figure out. He just couldn't figure out what was different about her. There was something about her that drew him closer and he just had to figure that out. But what happened when he found out? Did he discover he was way in over his head? Max tried to stay to himself for the most part. He hated the idea of someone calling him a girl to his face. Just the mere thought sent him in a spiral -- he wanted to take the thing out of his pocket to make him focus on something else. But he didn't. Often. Especially since he noticed the kind-eyed kid in the front of his class noticing him more and more. He didn't know what the boy wanted -- he didn't think it could be good. But what happened when he decided to trust him? Would he regret it? *Rated mature because of the topic -- there will also be self-harm and cussing and other things like that.

Rock Bottom (BL)
ORION GRAVES has always been on top. A straight-A, high honors student. Top of his class on the path to valedictorian and an Ivy League school. Until suddenly, that all changes. Orion was outed as transgender at his old school, and became victim to relentless harassment. Not to mention that in June of his junior year, his mother lost her battle with cancer. Now, he must move in with his father-whom he hasn't seen since his parent's divorce when he was 8. Moving all the way from Red, California to Lakeview, Maine, he has to start from the very beginning. But, as he starts his senior year in a brand-new school he's quick to learn that it's not going to be easy to get back on top, nor keep his head down and stay under the radar like old times. Because there's Caleb. CALEB MITCHELL, the star child of Lakeview. Honored for being so well-rounded he probably shouldn't get too close to a hill. Not only that, but he's nice. And funny. And surprisingly good-looking. And Orion's new best friend. But Caleb's lost someone too, and is struggling just as much; this perfect kid suddenly not so perfect anymore. He's got his own demons, and pressures, and a heavy depression holding him back. And yet, through these shared struggles, their friendship somehow manages to blossom into something so much more sacred. ---------- Cover and story by me, @devenwrites Official Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2XONF7xeRhcFwDBWpbxmsB?si=7s4Whhq-RlewQIiya3UwQwLengkap
Driven to Distraction
Alex Thompson was due to marry her high school sweet heart Eric Ramirez. Period. That's it. It's about as exciting as her life ever got really. She had a job, a good job but an unconscious reality was that she was bored. She had her back blown out once every three months, if that, and an overbearing mother who made her life hell. *enter Mitch* Eve 'Mitch' Mitchell. An outgoing, strong minded, independent, raging homosexual, lover to all, charming British soul. They meet by accident after a tough day at the office for Alex. A mistaken identity was all it took for a tiny little kiss. A moment blown all out of proportion for the Christian-bred Miss Thompson and her life turns more miserable than she anticipated for every time she turned around...Mitch was there behind her. Something about Mitch was new and fresh and her soul was just what Alex needed (little did she know). Secrets from the past are brought to the surface. A sad ending to a young lady's life. A realisation that family isn't always blood related. Alcohol isn't a medicine. Violence isn't a key. Hearts were never meant to be broken. Two things to take away: you never know what is going on in someone's head and the most important thing...you never know what happens behind closed doors. A/N just a random story about two people who meet accidentally. Plays with gender norms and very inclusive of LGBTQ (being a member myself). Could be triggering I'm not sure as some identity questions are thrown around. It does include smoking, drinking, some homophobia, profanities, violence and smut. Also anything in brackets with A/N means authors note and that's just me leaving a little comment.

Chrysalis Days & Butterfly Nights [Wattys 2023 Shortlist]
Luke had always struggled with a sense of himself, fighting to reconcile feelings that threatened his relationships and his identity. After years of pushing those feelings deep down inside, and after losing his wife in a tragic accident, those feelings he thought consigned to the past begin to reemerge. When a night turns terrifying and traumatic, he is saved by the statuesque Helen, who recognises his struggle and supports Luke on a spiritual journey in search of his true self. But his search for meaning in the bittersweet emotions that are blossoming within threaten to destroy his friendships, his home life and his resolve to become the person he had always known himself to be. Or, rather, who she knew herself to be. A sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes heart-lifting, sometimes harrowing and sometimes touching tale about accepting who you truly are. 🏵Wattys 2023 Shortlist🏵 🏵Featured by FreeTheLGBT - Diverse Literature - July 2023🏵 🏵Featured by Stories Undiscovered - Jan 2023🏵 🏵Featured by @WackyWriters - Undiscovered Gems Under 1k - Feb 2023🏵 🥉3rd Place - General Fiction Category -Pretty In Punk 'Punk Rock Awards' Apr 2023🥉 Cover created in Canva, using an AI generated picture.Lengkap
Redrawing Alessia
Sometimes, life whispers who you truly are from childhood. For Samuele, that whisper had a name: Alessia. But when the world responds with a roar of misunderstanding and a red rain washes away all certainty, that name becomes a secret to protect, a wound to hide. Thus begins Alessia's journey, a soul in desperate search of a body that feels like home and a place in the world that doesn't force her to shrink. From the first, painful awakenings of childhood, through the narrow and judgmental corridors of adolescence, to the complex challenges of self-affirmation in adulthood, this is the story of a fight for authenticity waged with heart and soul. A novel that explores with raw honesty and profound empathy the pain of dysphoria, the joy of self-discovery, the strength of resilience, and the healing power of unconditional love. Prepare to meet Alessia: her story will break your heart and sew it back together with golden threads, leaving you with the awareness that true belonging is, first and foremost, to oneself.
