When your girlfriend gives you a gym membership for your birthday, your relationship is probably doomed. Too bad Jenny didn't realize this before proposing. Rejection stings, but it's the catalyst Jenny needs to move her stagnant life forward.

For Juliana, well-padded women frequenting the gym she works at are potential clients. But she can't help noticing how cute this one is. And determined. And a number of other things she shouldn't notice. She doesn't, however, want to be attracted to gym clients, so she does her best to keep it professional. If only her attraction to the woman would do the same.

🌈【𝒶𝓃 𝓂𝓂 𝓁𝑜𝓋𝑒 𝓈𝓉𝑜𝓇𝓎】 Andrew Parker's life has always felt like a series of tough breaks. Growing up in the remote stretches of Alaska, he came out to his parents only to be kicked out, and his high school graduation was marred by the heartbreak of his first love and best friend leaving him behind. Loneliness became Andrew's new normal. But after years of struggle and a recent battle with depression, Andrew decides to chase a new dream... He moves to sunny Los Angeles to start fresh and open his own yoga studio. Life seems to be on the upswing-until he meets Vince. Vince is everything Andrew didn't expect from his lighthearted coworker who roasted him on screen every day: a Minnesotan with two kids, separated from his wife, with a stunning girlfriend on his arm. Their friendship hits off quickly, and soon Vince becomes Andrew's running buddy in Warner Park. To Andrew's horror, their friendship quickly turns into something deeper for him... Vince already had it all. He was out of Andrew's league. He was surrounded by women. He didn't feel the same way...

Noah (5th Street series) by elizabethreyes__

Veronica Cruz has been through hell and back. After disconnecting with the world two years ago to be at the side of her dying mother, she's left alone, unemployed, overweight, and feeling a decade older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend coaxes her into joining the local gym to ditch her depression and rejuvenate her life, she meets Noah. Assigned to help Veronica lose weight, Noah is everything she expected a young trainer to be-perfectly chiseled, supportive and motivating. Add to that, he's incredibly sexy. He's everything she's ever looked for in a man. What she least expected was for him to fall for her, but he has. There's just one glaring problem: Noah is eight years younger. Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title-someday. Down for a few months with an injury, his maintenance-boy pay at 5th Street Gym won't cut it. He's finally given the opportunity to train. The catch? His trainee is an out-of-shape woman with a free week pass. Taking on the challenge, Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships he's ever known, and before he knows it, he's in love. But Veronica's not having it-the age difference is too much. Their platonic relationship means having to watch her date other men-something that would make him crazy. Believing he's the man for her, Noah sets out to prove that age is but an illusion, and there's more to him than just a number. Adult Contemporary - The story you are about to read is intended for mature readers due to its sexual content and language. It may not be appropriate for all audiences.

Chicago (GXG) by OnnieMonnie

In the outskirts of Chicago lives young Jessica, so full of life and a need for love. A student who has waited her whole life for love at first sight; true love as they say... What happens when Jessica meets her dream woman? Valeria Garcia, a bartender at the new bar opening nearby, but is that all she will be? (Like four chapters worth of graphic smut. The chapters will not have warnings because I chose to keep the book as unmarked and clean as possible, but it will be obvious when it's coming. No graphic violence. Some difficult topics but nothing insane. FOR MATURE AUDIENCES)

Second Ave Offices: First Time for Everything (WLW) by Sora-The-Runaway

This is book one of a novella series, mostly consisting of shorter stories of 50k-100k word count. Ju Garcia hasn't ever felt the need to become entangled with another romantically, much less hop into bed with them. In fact, she's never even felt attraction in the true consistence of the word her entire life and now that she is nearly thirty-two, she has even less interest, focusing on the career she loves. However, things can't always go the way they're planned and when a comic book creator, Hayden Weller, signs up with Ju's studio, things begin to stir within herself and the call to romance may just take the helm. Hayden Weller is a geek through-and-through, wearing it like a badge of honor her entire life. She also happens to be a creator herself, working with her best friend to create a highly decorated and critically acclaimed webtoon. Still, that project is over as is their previous contract, so they begin interviewing potential companies and run into a woman with whom Hayden is immediately taken. However, Hayden has a dark past filled with regret, abuse and addiction and fears her own emotions may end everything she has worked for in chaos. Fear controls many aspects of people's lives. Some defeat it, while others internal struggle is endless, but can Ju and Hayden overcome their inner demons and rise above? Better and perhaps together...? ⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains elements of drug & emotional abuse and Borderline Personality Disorder. ❤ Mature/Erotic Content ⚢ Lesbian Romance/Lit 📚 Complete and undergoing editing. First draft. Second coming soon. As of 06/25/2024 I am working on making this series into a possible webcomic as well, so for those of you who like GL, keep your eyes peeled for updates on my Instagram. Adaptation will have multiple stories with minor changes running congruent. !!!My novels are completely off-limits to any adaptations and if plagiarized, you will be reported!!!
