Visions of Remembrance by hahastr2

Landon Lockett's life has been defined by gaps-memories lost, questions unanswered, and a father who disappeared without a trace. Now, working as a repairman in a quiet corner of Brooklyn, Landon has resigned himself to a life of solitude and mystery. But when a teenage girl named Simone arrives at his shop with a broken nutcracker clock and a plea for help, everything changes. Simone is an orphan battling her own demons, desperately seeking answers about her mother's past. The clock she carries is more than a keepsake-it's a relic steeped in secrets, capable of unraveling time itself. Drawn together by the clock's inexplicable power, Landon and Simone are thrust into a journey where visions of the past collide with the dangers of the present. As their fates intertwine, Landon must confront the shadowy truths of his forgotten life, while Simone fights to uncover the family she's never known. Together, they'll navigate a labyrinth of betrayal, grief, and hope, racing against time to uncover a legacy that could destroy them both. Visions of Remembrance is a gripping tale of identity, memory, and the unyielding bonds that connect us across time. Perfect for fans of dark mysteries and time-twisting adventures.

My Heart for Yours by StephCampbell725

For Tobin and Delia, everything was always equal. A bargain, a trade, a deal to be struck. A kiss for a kiss. Your shirt for mine. Break my heart, I'll break yours. Their disastrous split was no different. Tobin's spent the last year pretending Delia never existed, and Delia's been in D.C., pretending to be anything but the country girl that she is. When tragedy brings her back to town, Tobin and Delia realize that time apart hasn't healed either one of them. But staying away from each other is harder than they imagined, especially in small town Louisiana, and old feelings are quickly brought back to the surface. In the mess they've created, is there anything to be salvaged of a love that they both thought would be forever?

Forbidden Love by AnnaMoon138

Filled with dreams and hopes, Mia was a girl who fiercely believed in love. But years spent in a loveless marriage slowly dimmed the brightness she once had, taking away everything her heart had to give until there was nothing left. Her husband, a man who awoke her love without the intention of loving her back, wove illusions, abusing and manipulating Mia until there was nothing but a shadow of the girl she was before. When Mia was finally given the chance to return to her hometown, a place she had always longed for, it seemed like the salvation she desperately needed. Or she thought so until Noah, a man with a soul as deep as the ocean, awoke something inside Mia, something that began to burn brighter than she ever thought possible.

Ending by Mia_is_ok

A town with no history. A girl with no name. An end with no beginning. My oldest memory of this place was blurry. It faded in and out of my dreams and subconscious. The details edges had been rubbed smooth long ago, but the feeling of complete and absolute terror had remained as distinguishable as the day it happened. fifteen or so years back... That fear has always kept me grounded to the forest that isolated me from the rest of the world. It kept me safe from whatever I had to run away from. Tricking me into thinking what was best for my survival, was to stay hidden. But when dangers from the outside seep into the safe haven I had created, all sense of security shatters. Suddenly the safety net is gone, and other people exist again... Some that had definitely thought I was dead. (as of 2/25) Hello! I have been writing this book for like 6 years and some parts may be iffy. I still have to finish and revise the final draft, but it is very close to being done. The plot and story beats will remain the same from here, while details may be subject to change in the final edit. If you enjoy a good mystery (and romance), I would ask you to please consider reading. Thank you so much!)
