When it rains in the desert by NailahSyedd

I won't lie to you and tell you that this is a happy story because that would be a lie and I want to be real with you.

Now that we're straight with each other let me introduce you to the characters. First of all, Jacob Mendoza (that's me) and for now that's all you need to know;) Have you ever felt like your going backwards and the rest of the world is going forwards. It's like everyone's moving and you're just stuck. I'd felt like that my whole life. That is until I met my Celia. God she was so beautiful. She was breathtaking. Her smile tasted like fireworks. Every time. I never understood how another person could make me feel like that. But if I sit here describing her I will be here all day so let's not get ahead of ourselves. I was 23 when I met my Celia, the rest of my life is irrelevant because none of it actually mattered until I met her so let's begin.

Memorıes Lıke These by IAmNoSalad

"Tristan, I'm scared." And then I froze. Just like the first time I met her, my body went into complete lockdown and my heart beat irrationally fast. Who would of ever thought three words could scar me? To anyone else, it would mean nothing. But to me it meant everything. Lorna was fearless. She wasn't scared of anything. The words 'I'm scared' never left her mouth. Until now. I guess this sort of pain can even scare the fearless. Lorna Smith isn't your typical teenage girl, she's battling a deadly disease. But she doesn't let that get her down. She lives life fearlessly, taking it as one big journey. Then she meets Tristan Coleman, a popular guy who is fixed in his orderly life. Lorna's fun, high spirited personality soon changes Tristan and as their friendship slowly turns into romance, Lorna becomes a huge part of his life. He's prepared for love, but he's not prepared for what he gets. And that changes him forever. ~Cover created by @ceilteinte~

Don't give up // justin bieber by xHemmohugs

Riley is that kind of girl that doesn't give a fuck about school or about what others think, that loves to do her own thing and that always gets in trouble. But that all changes when she's forced to work at the local children hospital. At first she doesn't like it at all. She thinks it's boring. Until she meets Justin, a 16 year old boy who's been in a coma for almost a year. He has no one left. Everything he ever had is gone. No one believes in him anymore. They don't think he'll wake up. But for some reason Riley believes in him. She doesn't give up on him. Riley has never cared about anyone, yet she cares about that cute 16 year old boy who she just met. "Why didn't you give up on me when everyone else did? Why do you care about me when no one else does? Why did you believe in me when no one else did?" I sighed and looked into his eyes. "Because everyone deserves to live no matter what. Everyone deserves someone who cares about them. Everyone deserves to be loved. That's why, Justin." *Completed* *Not edited*

As I Fell ✓ by beeyunxx

*CURRENTLY EDITING! This version may or may not contain harmful stereotypes and I had been meaning to revise them and change them so better messages are communicated. Also, chapter numbers may be repeated due to newer chapters that I added after originally finishing the story. Thank u!* Owen Watson isn't what others consider a people's person. Introverted and bookish as he is, Owen is known to be grouchy and easily annoyed, especially with people who treat him as someone who is only defined by their disability. He was in a wheelchair, but he was fine anyway. Being in one means standing out, and one of the things Owen hates the most is attention. He just wants to sit back in the shadows with a good book. Everything changed when Athena Calimeris stumbled into his life and made things more complicated. Athena is your typical, bubbly, girl next door. Child at heart, people wouldn't think twice to know that she's a former child prodigy. Though her recent past tells a different story, she is as fragile as any other person can be despite her playful, sunny personality. Due to a not-so typical meeting, Owen and Athena aren't exactly instant partners in crime. With a little sprinkle of blossoming friendship and a tiny pinch of eye rolling, falling for the other might seem impossible, but not entirely.

Paralyzed by how_to_be_awkward101

WARNING: THIS BOOK IS A WRECK. PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN RISK (I even cringe at the stuff I wrote). *Highest rank #2 in Chicklit* "You're a girl?!" He asked in disbelief. "No, I'm a panda," I said, sarcastically. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Jasper Banks is a girl who has been paralyzed for six years because of an accident. She goes to college and realizes she's sharing an apartment with 3 guys. The worst part, these guys are so freaking hot. There's Elliot Avlet, who is really mysterious and flirty. Quinn Ryder, who is obsessed with anything Disney related. And of course, you can't forget Reese Kinny who loves onesies. One apartment + Three Greek Gods + One paralyzed girl in a wheelchair = One heck of a ride.
