Freya: 
I thought being dumped by my boyfriend right before I left for college was the worst thing that could happen before I arrived in Colorado. Then, I met him and he turned my world upside down. He held all the power and I knew he would break me, but something told me it would be worth it. 

Jensen:
My life was as good as it was going to get considering all that I'd been through. I didn't expect this college girl from Kentucky to tear down every wall I built to save myself. I swore to myself that I wouldn't feel this way ever again, but this girl had me breaking all kinds of promises to myself.All Rights Reserved

Promises we made (BWWM) by FigHollis

One campus. Two brothers. A girl they swore to never want. Danielle Hayes didn't come to college alone. She came with the two people she's closest to in the whole world: her best friends. Tristan hides a razor-sharp temper behind unshakeable loyalty. Alec wears his heart so openly it almost feels like a trap. Everything was perfect... until one drunken night changed the shape of their world. A slip in judgment. A life-altering mistake. Whispers. Lies. Manipulation disguised as friendship. This isn't just about love. Someone isn't playing fair. Love was never supposed to ruin them. Loyalty was never supposed to hurt this much. Choosing one might mean losing it all. Sometimes the promises you break are the ones that break you.

But when the guy I thought I knew turned abusive, everything changed. I found myself stuck in a toxic relationship, trapped in a cycle of manipulation and hurt. The one night I thought I could escape it all, I ended up in Aiden's room, a stranger who saw me for who I really was, not just a pretty face and a hot body. But Aiden isn't just any guy-he's kind, compassionate, and unlike any guy I've ever met. Now, as my abusive relationship threatens to swallow me whole, Aiden is the only person who makes me feel safe. But can I let go of everything I thought I knew about love? Or will I risk it all for something real? Even if it might cost me my life? Rankings #1abusiveboyfriend - 14/03/25 #1 bookworm - 22/03/25

Starting With You by AngieMahlke

Romance trope: best friends to lovers. "You're supposed to be my best friend, but all I can think about is kissing you again." TEDDY: I somehow got stuck in the unfortunate "one of the guys" category. It was on accident, naturally falling into this role since my childhood best friend was a boy. The crush on my best friend was also an accident. He's always seen me as one of the guys. That is, until the one drunken night he didn't. The one that nearly ruined everything a decade ago. JENSEN: It was much easier when I didn't notice how hot my best friend is. It would be even better if the rest of the jackoffs in our small town would stop noticing too. I can still remember all the details from our night together years ago. The night we never talk about, yet it's still so fresh in my mind. But will a secret scar from a past relationship ruin everything? [This is BOOK ONE of the WITH YOU series, a small town romance series set in Minnesota about the lives of the dysfunctional, blended Anderson family - with an interwoven mystery built into the background that spans the entirety of the series.] **Title formerly The Rest of Forever**
