Playing Poker [BEING REWRITTEN] by moorewrites

Everyone in life is dealt a hand of cards. The player can't control if they are dealt a good or bad hand but the player can control the outcome if they play their cards right. A bad hand doesn't automatically mean you lose, it just makes the game harder to play. This story isn't about cards. Rayland was dealt a bad hand. She always had the support of her loving family until her mother and brother left when she was nine. Her life was never the same. One day, she gets into a car accident which leaves her father dead and her losing most of her memory. She gets placed with her aunt and abusive boyfriend. When her aunt gets married, she finds out she has 6 step-cousins. Will her bad hand be enough to win the game or was she doomed to fail? Trigger Warning: Includes Self-Harm, Drugs, Abuse, Language, etc (The self-harm portion of the story is not to the protagonist.) NOT A STEP BROTHER LOVE STORY Warning: Somewhat Cliche Started: 4/1/21 Ended: 9/17/21 Still writing bonus chapters.

Life of a little sister - available on Amazon by Anna_kayy

****Edited Version Now Available on Amazon****** 16-year-old Lydia Tonelli has six overprotective, overbearing, and overly involved brothers. Born to two hardworking immigrant parents, their tight-knit sibling bond has gotten them through everything. Now, however, she is beginning to resent the domineering attitudes of her brothers, especially the eldest-Felix. Felix has blurred the lines between parent and sibling and dictates her everyday life. She's not allowed to date, not allowed to dress a certain way, and can barely go anywhere without one of her brother's supervision. What the boys believe is out of love and consideration for her wellbeing and her future, is the driving force behind Lydia's desire to rebel. When Damon Rodriguez, the bad boy in school, shows a special interest in Lydia, she is tempted to disobey her family and dive into her first real relationship. A tragic occurrence followed by a silver lining allows Lydia some breathing room to explore the new romance. But every action has a consequence, and now Lydia has found herself in a web of lies she can't seem to see herself out of. Friendships, relationships, and sibling bonds are all put to the test. That's high school, right?

Twin At First Sight |✓| by LoveFoodAndSleep

I felt the tears rise and I looked down for a minute, gathering all of my resolve. I looked up again and stared him right in the eye. "You know what? I trusted you!" I jabbed my finger in his chest and he recoiled. "I trusted you and you broke my trust. I trusted you to keep the secret. I trusted you enough to tell you everything. I trusted you to keep my trust. I trusted you." I told him and he flinched as my voice broke in the end. I looked away from him and at everyone else in the room. "And you wonder why I never trust. You know what? I can't do this. I'm done." I scoffed and shoved past Aiden but paused at the door, not looking back. "Oh, and if you are still curious? Go ahead and hack into the file. Don't say that I didn't warn you." ************************************************************** Alexis and Aiden are siblings with Aiden being 11 months older than her.
