CountryCore Series: From Osaka to Paris (WLW) by Sora-The-Runaway

Three years ago, Remi Lavigne lost her wife to tragic circumstances, leaving her to raise their children alone as she tends to her giant corn, wheat and dairy farm. Feeling as though she's fallen short of what her wife always dreamed, she's dedicated herself to making sure the children have everything they'd ever want or need. Although with her busy schedule, taking the time to watch the sprouts bloom hasn't been her top priority. She knows she has to do better, but what she hadn't accounted for was the arrival of her new au pair to spark sensations within herself that she's held back since her wife's passing. Devon Yamada was born in Texas and spent her first six years there until her father's job took him back to his home country of Japan. Now as a full grown biracial adult, she's ready to go home. Unable to have children of her own, she's dedicated herself to becoming the best caregiver to them since she was only fifteen and now as an adult, she's ready to put her skills to the test. Where better to start than just outside of her birthplace of Fort Worth, Texas? Finally home for the first time in almost two decades, she's ready for her life to truly begin. What she hadn't anticipated was just how stirring her new employer is with her stern disposition, yet kind eyes. After only a short while, Remi can already see changes in her children. Primarily in her son as he finally speaks to someone aside from his older sister for the first time in literal years. Her hope is beginning to restore and it may all be due to Devon, though this wasn't something she expected. Devon has a way of seeing straight through her at every opportunity. Drawn in by the beguiling allure they both share, Devon can also feel herself changing. ⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains depictions of grief and child development. ⚢ Lesbian/Queer Romance with Mature Content 📚 We're nearly done! !!!My novels are completely off-limits to any adaptations and if plagiarized, you will be rep

Oh, My, Addison by chickensarerad

This is a MATURE girlxgirl story. This can be a standalone novel, but there are characters from my book, I Hate You. Melanie Canon loves the idea of no commitment and no consequences, which is why she feels it necessary to have sex with any attractive person that's willing to play a game of cat and mouse. Because of this, Melanie essentially knows every girl on campus. Which is why Melanie is confused when Addison Cruz, a beautiful girl she had no idea existed, introduces herself one day and offers to have non consequential sex despite never even being kissed. Addison is bold, intelligent, and a tad-bit weird(an understatement). She's not afraid of telling it how it is, and she's definitely not afraid to say anything she was thinking about - whether or not it was appropriate to public ears. And besides - if this girl was offering a sexual relationship without the consequences of love, attachment, and relationships - then why did Melanie feel uncomfortable and guilty about using her? A quirky story revolving around lust, witty remarks, a lot of awkward conversations, and learning that it's okay to be yourself - you won't be disappointed as you follow the love story of how Addison Cruz and Melanie Canon fall in love.

My Summer of Firsts by jms777

Summers in Arizona can be brutal. So can finding love in a small town when you aren't straight. At twenty-years-old, Steven has just about given up on the prospect. Instead, he saves his money, dreaming of the day when he can ditch his small town life for something more exciting. Preferably somewhere with guys who would actually be interested in dating him. But everything changes when a handsome new guy arrives in town and starts flirting with Steven. Being woefully inexperienced, Steven is excited-and equally nervous-by the opportunity to finally check some firsts off his list. Perhaps the one first he wasn't counting on will end up being the best of all.

So it goes [Breakable Heaven #1] by TheComet13

After the summer break, Sasha goes back to Seville and to work with a broken heart and pretty much no idea what the future holds for her. The only person she's ever considered family has abandoned her after a seven-year relationship, and she feels completely lost. The only thing she knows for sure is that she can count on the support of her colleagues and friends. What she has never expected, though, is to find that support in Rory, with whom she's always had a very controversial relationship. Day after day, Rory helps Sasha getting over her heartbreak, but as their friendship grows, so does Sasha's attraction toward her technically straight co-worker. But at some point, Sasha starts doubting that Rory is still as straight as she claims to be, as she keeps flirting and joking with Sasha in a way that must mean something more.
