You and Me (Plus Everyone In Between Us), écrit par esosazuwawrites

17-almost-18-year-old Ezra Thompson is tired of two things. First, is constant chatter about Dilemma, an all-boy rock band, led by the supposedly-dreamy frontman Andre Robinson that somehow has a universal grip on every teenager in the world. Personally, Ezra doesn't see the appeal. Second, being in the shadow of her more smart, successful, and popular twin brother Emmet. Ezra couldn't ask for a better life. The thing is, Ezra, can sing. Like really sing. Only her parents who are occasionally proud of her, treat it as a juvenile hobby and she could never sing in front of people. So for now, her shampoo bottles get front-row access to her once-a-night concert in the shower. But when Ezra's younger sister, Maria, signs her up for a singing reality show called Finding Solstice, she is both angry and grateful. To her surprise, she passes the audition and is invited to Los Angeles for the show. Suddenly immersed in the cutthroat music industry, Ezra faces a whirlwind competition against fame-hungry singers, all fighting tooth and nail for the same prize. Amidst the manufactured forces of the industry, she must stand her ground and protect her passion for music. As if that wasn't enough, Ezra finds herself suddenly encountering a pretentious rockstar and is unexpectedly drawn to him. As the competition heats up, Ezra finds herself at the center of a brewing scandal that could end her career before it even starts. The pressure is on, and Ezra is torn between her passion for music and the fear of being dragged down. The stakes are high, and people are unforgiving, but Ezra knows that her music is worth fighting for. With her future on the line, she must navigate the twists and turns of the music industry and stay focused on what really matters: her music and her dreams.

Walk With Me, écrit par AJ_Readley

Tommy Sallow is onto better and brighter things. After working a small hometown beat in upstate New York, he's finally in sunny California. As expected, it's the same shit in a different town. Except, you know, now he's near the ocean and miserable NY winters are a thing of the past. So, it's cool. He thought finding love would be simple. The guy who's always there for everyone else just wants someone to meet him halfway and things are looking grim, to say the least. Never one to believe in fate, what he definitely didn't see coming was Amber, a small and complicated piece of home he's never quite been able to forget about. ~♡~ Amber Hill always dreamt of having the perfect family.

Heart & Soul, écrit par mistyrider921

Erika Taylor is the complete opposite of her geeky, science- and technology-driven family. She writes songs and creates the backing tracks for them, but no one in her family knows that. Especially her sister, who is obsessed with a show called "Choosing Right", and of course, secretly applied for her sister to be in it, while Erika had dreams of attending a small school for producing music outside of her parent's knowledge. And, as it so happens, she gets chosen to be one of the competitors on the show. Now, she has to spend a long thirty-two weeks convincing a boy to either fall in love with her or make sure she never catches feelings for him. When it comes down to it, can she keep the hundreds of secrets from everyone she knows or does time tell all? DISCLAIMER: please don't steal my idea, storyline, or the alternate universe I've created (although I'd probably be flattered), and most of the songs in this book are mine (you'll know which ones aren't but those aren't mine to begin with), so please don't steal those either because those are really hard to write

HAZEL FINE SINGS ALONG (WATTYS 2022 Winner!), écrit par KatieWicksWriter

New and improved version of Hazel Fine Sings Along is now published as a Paperback, and E-book with W by Wattpad Books! As Wattpad reader you can read the original version and find the link to published version inside. ****** [COMPLETE] Lights! Camera! Action! Everyone feels like they're playing a part sometimes. But Hazel Fine has played so many roles, for so many people, she isn't even sure who the real Hazel is anymore...much less whether she still has a chance at achieving any of her dreams. When she lands an improbable audition for the competition show The Sing Along, she knows she has to give the producers what they want, because this is her last shot. If only she could figure out what that was. Of course she's going to sing her heart out, but should she let herself fall for Benji, the "Crowd Favorite," and give them a showmance they won't forget? Can she fend off the advances of the powerful celebrity judge without getting eliminated from the competition? And what about that incredibly grumpy musical producer, Nick, who is always criticizing her? Ok, he calls it "advice" as if he's trying to help. But he's driving Hazel crazy. When the curtain is unexpectedly pulled back on Hazel's past and all the things she has pretended to be begin to spill out into the spotlight, is there any chance the real Hazel Fine can still find what she's looking for?

Five's A Crowd, écrit par ur_anus_

"𝔼𝕍𝔼ℝ𝕐 𝔽𝔸𝕄𝕀𝕃𝕐 ℍ𝔸𝕊 𝕊𝔼ℂℝ𝔼𝕋𝕊" - - - "My name is Hazel, but most people call me Ze. I'm from Melbourne, and love Taylor Swift." I cringe at my own words, and think back to a time where Fletcher was one of the only people calling me Ze. "Does anyone have questions for Miss. Bolivi?" Fletcher asks, and I hate the way my father's last name sounds on his lips. Lots of students raise their hands, and I feel overwhelmed. People actually want to learn something about me? "Yes, Miss. Abbott. Ask away," Fletcher says to one of the girls who is seated at a table at the front of the class, with other kids who all look bitchy like her. "Are you related to the Bolivi brothers?" Her disgustingly sweet voice pukes out. "My last name is Bailey," I say coldly, hating how that was her only query about me. - - - Hazel Bailey. She's your typical Australian teenage girl. From going out with friends every Friday night, to crushing on university boys. But what happens when this seemingly normal girl experiences the loss of her mother? Fearing that she's going to go into foster care, Hazel begins to stress, but she quickly discovers that she's not going to go into the system. Instead, her five older brothers have gained custody of her. The same five older brothers she never knew existed. Something about them seems off, and Hazel can't help acting wary. But they're not the only ones with secrets. Join Hazel in a journey of lies, love, attachment, and humor.
