***Read the first chapter of Lili Grouse's Leap of Faith for free right here on Wattpad!***
Faith Thompson never thought she'd see Chase Stevens return to the small town of Mercy. She certainly didn't expect him to come back as her new landlord, set on selling the home she's had for the past seven years. Faith never found the courage to tell Chase how she felt back when they were still friends, and she's determined to keep those old feelings dead and buried now that he's back. After all, it devastated her the last time he left, and Chase already has plans to leave again for his life in L.A. But the more time Faith spends with Chase, the harder it is to ignore the way she's always felt about him.
With potential heartbreak looming on the horizon, Faith has a decision to make: does she take a leap of faith and tell the only man she's ever loved how she feels, or does she push him away and let her heart heal for good?

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Завершенная история
Tethered To You
One summer. One rule. One man she was never supposed to fall for twice. Willow's new college roommate has one rule: Don't date her brother. Easy enough... until she realizes he's the man from her unforgettable summer in Italy. What was meant to be a carefree, no-strings-attached fling beneath the Italian sun turns into something far more complicated when Willow starts college and discovers her mystery man is now completely off-limits. Maverick-her roommate's older brother, her secret summer flame, and the guy everyone warns her about. He says he's changed. That she's different. That what they had was real. But with friendships on the line and a heart already tangled in what-if's, Willow isn't sure she can trust him-or herself. Because falling for him once was reckless. Falling for him again might ruin everything.
Head Over Heels

"What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes.
