Noah, once her partner in crime and now the most popular guy in school, is no longer the boy she remembers... or is he?

As their bond deepens, love blossoms in whispered conversations, shy hallway glances, prom dances, and sneaky late-night talks. Together with their close-knit group of friends-Emma, Zane, and Zoe-they navigate the chaos of high school, college, growing up, and finding their forever. But life isn't always fair. Love doesn't promise to stay. Years pass, memories blur, and fate delivers an unexpected twist that will test everything they believed in. From innocent friendship to soul-deep love, this is the story of Ava and Noah. Of laughter, loss, homecomings, and promises whispered across time. IT'S ALWAYS BEEN YOU (forever )

The Weight of Us by ShoshannaBlackAuthor

Elena Morris has spent her entire life trying not to take up space. Quiet, bookish, and plus-size, she's mastered the art of invisibility at college-especially around guys like Jace Carter, the charming star athlete who leaves a wake of attention wherever he goes. So when Jace ends up in her creative writing class and-worse-asks her to tutor him, Elena braces herself for disaster. But Jace is nothing like she expected. He listens. He shows up. And beneath the swagger is someone surprisingly sincere... and maybe a little broken too. Over long nights in the library, shared stories, and too many vanilla lattes, something real begins to bloom-something that terrifies Elena even as it makes her feel more seen than ever before. One explosive kiss shatters the fragile line between them, and just as they begin to build something honest and beautiful, Elena discovers she's pregnant. What follows is a tender, raw, and deeply emotional journey-through fear, through love, through the ache of learning to believe she's enough. With Jace by her side, unwavering and all-in, Elena begins to find her voice not just in writing... but in life.

When seventeen-year-old Aniya is beginning to give up on her silly crush, fate brings them together in the same house after a freak accident. Aniya has been through a lot but this was the most unexpected. Victor Simon is your typical student. He gets good grades, respectful to his teachers, and does well in school. He wasn't interested in wasting his time with many friends or girls. His agitation then grows when he finds that the girl he rejected two years ago comes to live with his family. Little did he know how much his life would change in that exact time frame. - "I hate you," I gritted my teeth, a tear daring to slip out. I stepped backwards tying to get away but my back collided against the door. He took another step trapping me in between his arms. My heart thudded loudly in my chest as he brought his face closer to mine with a proud smirk playing out on his lips. The room was dark but I could still see the outline of his face, his eyes, his lips. Fuck. His alluring cologne graced my senses, but clouded my brain as he inched closer to me. "You sure about that?" He raised an eyebrow, amusement evident in his tone. ----- #1 - interracial - 1/27/22 #1 - hot - 2/26/23 #1 - drama - 6/2/22 #1 - cold - 3/3/23 #2 - teenromance - 5/21/22 #2 - tutor - 2/21/22 ----- This book is inspired by the manga series Itazura Na Kiss.

It doesn't matter how he was when they were kids...things change. But when drama class casts them as the two main leads, Brianna realizes that he hasn't changed much from who he used to be; He's still that goofy caring kid she remembered. But she's afraid...somehow she's still afraid to be disappointed by him again, to commit to something that will only bring pain later. Yet she can't turn away from him completely. One chance, Emerson. You have one chance. #1 in Production (thank you guys!) 5/1/19 1k reads 6/14/19 2k reads 8/10/19 3k reads 9/18/19 4k reads 10/26/19 5k reads 12/18/19 6k reads 1/25/20 7k reads 3/2/20 8k reads 4/4/20 9k reads 5/8/20 10k reads 6/4/20 11k reads 7/10/20 13k reads 9/10/20 14k reads 10/8/20 16k reads 12/25/20 17k reads 2/14/21 18k reads 4/6/21 20k reads 6/27/21 30k reads 9/2022
