Mature

Felicity has a secret, one that would make her college roommate extremely jealous - she knows one of the hottest stars in the music industry: Sawyer Reeves...or rather, she knew him, as they used to be best friends. She would never forgive him for stealing the fame that was meant to be hers.

                                                                      *****

When Sawyer Reeves was signing his name on a lucrative record deal, Felicity was mourning the loss of her brother. When Sawyer was playing sold-out arena shows to thousands of adoring fans, she was attending therapy sessions to cope with the trauma she'd experienced. Felicity vowed to never touch a piano again, and to never forgive Sawyer for betraying her - no matter how close he tries to get to her heart.

Rules to Feeling Lonely by LoveForPie7

Alone. A simple word that has always held many meanings to Ella, and starting her senior year at a new high school, solitude had seemed the easiest way to go. A week passed, bland and unnoticed, before her plans quickly get thrown overboard. Losing one of her most priced possessions, she finds herself making a rather simple deal with someone from school. His name, for her book. There's only one little problem; she has no idea who this person is. Laughs and tears, friends and heartbreak, and the past that comes knocking on the door. Ella faces it all as she takes on the search to find her secret admirer. ___________________ "I can't believe him after the texts, the letter, the flowers. All these months and he just tells me 'we'll talk later'", I told him, feeling absolutely frustrated. I am so damn stupid, thinking this was gonna be something special or whatever. "It isn't him", he suddenly spoke and I just rolled my eyes. He doesn't even know what he's talking about, the imbisile. "It is, you don't even know what you're talking about so shut up", I cried out, walking forth and back for the hundredth time. "Listen, I do and it isn't him", he yelled this time and I stopped walking, angrily turning to him. Can he stop just pissing me off even more? "Oh yeah? And how are you so sure?" "Because it's me"

Where Silence Sings by IndigoKat25

She hasn't spoken a word in years. He's got a reputation that screams trouble. Anya Thorne's voice was stolen by a past she can't escape. Kidnapped, abused, and left for dead, she survived, but her words died with the trauma. Now, her only solace is the college music room, where, after hours and utterly alone, her unique, hauntingly beautiful voice can finally sing, a raw whisper of who she truly is. Jasper Knox is the campus bad boy. Tattoos, piercings, and a rebellious streak a mile wide. He's constantly butting heads with his strict father and has no plans beyond dodging expectations. But late one night, leaving detention, a melody drifts from the music room-a voice that stops him cold. He hears her. Really hears her. Drawn by the secret beauty of her song, Jasper finds himself obsessed with the silent girl. As he slowly, patiently, chips away at Anya's deep-seated trauma and fierce paranoia, a tentative trust begins to bloom. He shows her his own hidden world-a raw, emotional talent for the piano, a passion he's always concealed. But their fragile connection is threatened by every side: Anya's overprotective parents who fear Jasper is too dangerous, his demanding father who sees Anya as a distraction, Jasper's manipulative "bad girl" girlfriend, Cassidy, who's determined to tear them apart, and the whispers and rumors that follow them across campus. And for Anya, the shadows of her past are always lurking, threatening to pull her back into the silence. Can the bad boy and the broken songbird find a harmony together, or will their combined scars leave them more shattered than before?

Ending up in her father's hometown a few months after the day her life changed forever, Morgan finds her life changing once again, and she only hopes that this time will be for the better. It isn't until after a run-in with the town's golden boy, Jack Crawford, that Morgan realizes no amount of starting over will take away the memories of the past. What Morgan doesn't know is that Jack has a secret of his own that's eerily similar to hers. And what neither of the two know is that their secrets will unintentionally bring them together, reminding the duo that they aren't as alone as they often feel.
