Stranger Not So Danger by rosegolden_

"When I first met you, you were a complete stranger. But through time, I thought I really started to get to know you. To know the way you react to things, the way you look to the side when you're nervous, and ultimately, the way you feel about me. But, right now, after all that you've said, you feel more like a stranger to me than you ever did before." I can't believe those words just came out of my mouth. I was hurt, and my heart was shattered like a hammer colliding with a mirror. Broken, by one of the only people I trusted would never break me. ~~~~~ Lindsey Grey was regretting going to the basketball game in the first place.

Discovering Mack by prettiestoflies

"Not screwing as in ongoing. It was a one time... or two time thing," I cringe at how slutty that makes me sound. "I was a little drunk... the second time. Whatever, the details aren't important because it's not going to happen again." "Twice? Honestly Mack, I thought you were better than to fall for his shit. I've watched him churn through women, fuck em and dump em. I know he's my boss but he isn't a good guy! And you work with him too! Scarlett was one thing, but now he's got you both in his bed!" Note to self, don't tell Tristan that neither time was in a bed and we only had sex once. You know what, let's just keep the details to the bare minimum, he can fill in whatever blanks he wants to. **** Mackenzie has been living a life for everyone else, mainly her long term high school boyfriend. She doesn't seem to know who she is anymore, what she wants, or how to stand up for herself. When she starts a new job she never expected to meet people like Tristan, Scarlett and Alex. People who changed her life, encouraged her to be herself and chase her own dreams. These friendships help to heal her heart, but could they turn to something more?

Every Little Thing by SueLou66

Mallory finds herself brokenhearted when she loses the love of her life in a tragic accident. She's left to pick up the pieces of her life with the help of her best friend, Kendall. Her job as a neonatal nurse helps to keep her mind off of her broken heart when something unexpected happens; she comes face to face with Dr. Samuel Daniels. Will she find love again, or will her grief blind her from her second chance at love and happiness? *** "Kendall is under the illusion that you're in love with me. Can you believe that? I just buried my fiancé seven months ago. She told me not to be blinded by my grief, not to see that you love me," I sigh. I notice Sam lower his head. "I'm guessing that must have pissed you off." "It did! I don't want her to ruin the friendship that we have. I like how we are. You throw the love word in there, and it freaks me out." I fight back my tears. Sam raises his head to look at me. "Listen, Mallory. I would never do anything to jeopardize what we have. Please don't let other people's observations of our relationship mess that up, okay?" *** 1st Place in The Candy Cane Awards 🥇 2nd Place in the 2020 Universal Awards 🥈 2nd Place in the Books and Beyond Awards 🥈

3.1 | What we Fake by Evelynfrost23

❝I was crazy in love, and love makes you do crazy things.❞ "So, does that mean if I-if I kissed you tonight, you wouldn't feel a thing?" Emily barely reacted, focused on trimming her nails, but his question jolted her enough that she almost nicked herself. Without looking up, she replied, "No." Then, with a sharp breath and a smile, she met his eyes. "Absolutely not." ~*~ Liam Wyatt never had the life of an ordinary boy. Between his absent parents, a wildly popular twin, and an even more famous best friend, he always felt like the one who had to keep everything in order-even when nothing was. But despite all of that, he loved his life for what it was, imperfections and all. There was just one thing he wished he could change: the way his heart raced every time he saw Emily, his best friend, look at her girlfriend. He wished, late at night when no one was around to notice, that she would one day look at him that way. But Liam wasn't selfish-her happiness always came first, even if it meant pushing his own feelings aside. What We Fake explores the tender and raw complexities of unrequited love, self-identity, and the things we hide from the world-and from ourselves. In a world where we think we know ourselves best, sometimes, we're the ones wearing the best disguise.
