"Listen, son. You've got a great girl waiting for you. Do her a favor and don't mess it up this time." I start to nod, but realize that didn't make sense. Who is he talking about? Josie M-Josie, or Brooke?

"Care to elaborate a bit more? Who do you mean?"

"I don't know. Who do I mean? You're the hotshit lawyer. Figure it out."

-

All Josie wanted was to live out her dreams with her childhood sweetheart Colt, a force of arrogance, hot-headedness, and southern charm. They had been through everything life had to offer together, so what was one more tragedy?

Apparently to Colt, everything. 

Seven years later in Boston, he is the epitome of smooth and steady with a new girl on his arm that he fixes to marry. The only problem is that he already is.

Join Colt on a trip down memory lane in Georgia as he struggles to figure out which part of himself holds fast. The fearless small-town boy with the hot head and quick mouth, or the man who has made something of himself in a big city.

Jamie Miller is an average trouble maker at school, a liar, and she's the kind of girl that gets the guys but she don't want them. Not snobby, just herself. When she makes up a facebook for fun . . . as a guy, she meets a guy that's supposed to transfer to her school tomorrow. He asks if she wants to be friends, but Jamie lies and says she's sickly and can't come to school yet so they can only meet on here right now. She blows it when he asks when she's coming and she says 2 weeks. Now Jamie Miller and Cameron Sampson are both his friends and he doesn't know their the same people. Jamie's dumb move of not telling is now getting her into more trouble than she wanted and more heartbreak than she needs. With her crazy friends changing up her life and making things worse or better, she's living through hell/heaven with this awesome guy that she likes and can barely even touch from the fact that she's dating someone already . . . someone she's regreting every moment of her life now.

Don't Fall in Love with the Flirt by jeylalynn

WARNING! Don't fall in love with the flirt. You're bound to get your heart broken... Growing up, Jasmine Lopez has always been the pretty one. Her stunning features and natural charm have made all the boys flock at her feet and all the other girls hate her. She's that girl who'll steal your date and make your boyfriend's eyes stray. But here's a secret - Jasmine is not the consummate flirt everyone believes her to be. All the guys she dates only see her as a challenge and not as girlfriend material. So she dates a lot but never commits to one guy. It's her way of pushing them away and keeping her heart safe. Until her childhood BFF Sebastian moves back into town. Sebastian is the friendly guy-next-door (with six-pack abs!) who's just too good to be true. And for the first time in her life, Jasmine feels like she can be herself around someone. No games. No pretenses. As they spend more time together, Jasmine thinks that maybe, just maybe, she's starting to catch feelings for him. Can Jasmine let go of her player persona and finally open her heart? Or is Sebastian just playing a game of his own? -- This story has 20 Chapters! (COMPLETE) #1 BESTSTORYEVER in just 1 week! 24 June 2022 - 25 July 2022 #13 BOYNEXTDOOR - 29 June 2022

The drop off line at school was filled with many interesting people, and Nadine Clarke was definitely not one of them. Even if the rumor mill was buzzing about her husband ditching her and her two children, she was far from the talk of the town. There were others more interesting than herself like the leather jacket guy. She had her eye on him for a while, along with every other mom during drop off. He somehow always ended up in front of her every morning, until one afternoon when he ended up on the pick up line not looking so hot. His son had puked all over himself in the car, and leather jacket guy was beside himself. Nadine had seen that look from her ex before in the face of vomit, so she did what any mom would do and helped him clean up. Amidst the chaos of angry parents, Nadine introduced herself to find out his name was Lawson Bailey and he was a recently single father of one trying to figure out how to navigate divorce. Later that night at the bar Nadine waitresses at, she comes to find that Lawson was in the new band performing there. Upon realization she tripped over a chair leg and tumbled to the floor. Lawson jumped from the stage, stopping the show before it began, only to have Nadine's nervous stomach become upset all over him. Somehow their not so meet cute didn't deter the two from getting to know each other better, but when her son Jackson and his son Henry get into a fight at school, can both parents deal with the consequences of their children's actions while also falling madly in love with each other?

Playing The Game by just-A_potato

Not every blonde is stupid. In the South if you're a beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed girl high expectations are made. Either you're not extremely smart, so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. Or you are smart and you just pretend to be dumb so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. All her life Avery Skinner has been told what to do and how to do it- by everyone. By her mother, the girls she calls friends, the guys in school, teachers, family, even Mark the mailman. Needless to say, she's sick of it. Its time Avery took control of her life or at least get a firm grip on the sucker. She's loved football ever since she was a little girl. Yet she could never play because ladies aren't supposed to do such barbaric things. Especially in the South- unless its a rodeo and you're wearing those ridiculously tight outfits that show you're navel or showing you can hold your liquor. Avery has longed to be on the field, throwing the ball instead of cheering on the team her dad coaches that can't seem to win. Then her best friend Austin forces Avery to and for sometime everyone is fooled. But the truth can only be hidden for so long. The moment the townsfolk of Stonehenge, Alabama learned it was a girl under that helmet, was the moment true colors showed. It hasn't been easy and it won't get any better but Avery is here to play. * Avery is going to face REAL life problems, and not nice people. She's going to deal with sexual harassment, mean words, rude people, pregnancy, injuries, steroids, etc.. In this story I want to exemplify how sexist and cruel humans can be. There will be hard moments, but I want to put it out there because it IS a serious problem. Harsh language and such will be present. You have been warned, don't read it then complain.

Second Chance Romance Love-at-first sight--faster-paced love affair Single father Surprise baby HEA standalone Five years ago, my life changed when my wife left my two-year-old son and me in the middle of the night-breaking my heart.

That was until a beautiful blonde-haired, green-eyed beauty moved to my town--changing my life forever.

But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at and became jealous whenever Jack, the town's annoying wanna-be cowboy, tried striking a relationship up with her. I always felt my wife, Hailey, would return to Maverick and me, and we'd be a family again. But the more time I focused on the new girl in town, the more I wanted Hailey out of my life, and the more I wanted Josie in mine. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesign

Everything Has Changed by paperandpen444

"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey.
