A College Distraction (A College Tale #1) by fridajak

*COMPLETED* Ella: College is overwhelming for everyone. Add being a freshman here on a scholarship from Sweden, trying to make a new life for myself, I have no time for any distractions. I need to be on my A game at all times, even when 'mr QB one', or Adonis himself, enters my life. Nothing more can grow between us than friendship. I have to make sure of that. Mac: I have always been a believer at love at first sight and when I see her I know she is it. She insists we can only be friends but I plan to show her how good we are for each other, and as the sizzling attraction between us only grows stronger, it is harder and harder to stay away and I know she can feel it too. Love is never easy and sometimes we do stupid things in the name of love. One devastating decision leaves them both despair and the question is if they are going to make it out of this stronger than ever, or forever at loss. (Can be read as a standalone)

Keeping Secrets by BlueEyedSwede

Peyton has always been the girl who flies under the radar-ordinary, average, never one to stand out. But that all changes on her first day of college when she's struck by a football and knocked to the ground in front of the football team, and even worse-her over-the-top, dramatic mother. The one good thing to come from the humiliating event: she meets Max, the campus' charming and popular football star. Their unlikely friendship pulls her into a world she's never known, giving her all-access to exclusive parties and the popular crowd. But it also sparks jealousy and draws the kind of attention she never asked for. Things get even more complicated when Peyton falls for Beau, the irresistible guitarist of Trudge Lite, the up-and-coming band everyone's talking about. She knows he's the ultimate heartbreaker and tries to keep things casual. Caught between wanting what she shouldn't, navigating shifting friendships, and keeping secrets that grow heavier by the day, Peyton soon realizes that some lines aren't so easy to draw, let alone keep. Trying to balance it all, Peyton and Max keep up careful charades, not only from those around them but also from each other. Soon they'll learn that secrets have a way of unraveling, no matter how carefully they're guarded. Peyton will have to decide what and who she's willing to risk it all for.

Things Left Unsaid | ✓ by infallibles

❝That's the thing about love. It isn't going to be easy, it isn't going to be smooth, but it's going to be worth it. Because sometimes you have to take the plunge. And you never know if you'll make it out again.❞ Maybe it's the way he looked at her that day in kindergarten or maybe it's the way he was there for her all those years. Whatever it was, somewhere along the way Kaylee fell for Dylan - hard. She soon realizes, however, that feelings can be misinterpreted and fate often doesn't play in her favor. When a rift forms between the two, all hope seems lost and Kaylee is forced to move on. But later, when fate finally decides to twist in her favor, Kaylee is given a second chance to fix their romance. As the two work through resetting their relationship, they soon learn that friendships often don't go as planned, relationships aren't actually that simple, and words are not always easily said. And in the end, everything may just crash and burn. ******************************************* Warning: Read at your own risk! This is my first story on Wattpad (which I wrote when I was 14), so you know what that means - cringe, plot holes, and errors. It's not the most well-written; there are decent chapters and bad chapters. I hope you decide to give this story a chance anyways, though.
