Haven Pickering has started on a new path after her divorce. She wants to become a funeral director and embalmer.

She would never guess the situations she would find herself in or the friendships she would make along the way. She certainly never dreamed of the relationship she would find herself in the middle of.

Her new experiences with death, the horrifying sites, the beauty of helping others, friendships and love; the highs and the deep lows. 

Haven has a lot of important decisions to make. With her special sensitivities and a little help from the other side, hopefully she will make the right ones.

Phoenix LeFlore: She is alive. Her brother is dead. People are moving forward. She is standing still. He was everything. Now she has nothing. Aza Ainsworth: She is a soft girl who acts tough. She is a warm girl who was treated coldly. Someone made her heart beat faster, then broke it. Can a broken heart help a broken soul? _____ Girl meets girl. Girl doesn't like girl. Then girl likes girl. Could she like her back? Two girls. One story. _____ "I like: The soft side underneath her tough side. Her mind. Her wit. Her cute awkwardness. The way she bites her nails. The way she dresses, like a 90s character, like someone in a movie. The way she smells, like mint, spicy but sweet, like her personality. Her green, serious, sexy eyes. Her laugh. Her name. Her hand in my hand. The stars on her face. The X on the back of her neck. I want to make her laugh all day, want to say her name, whisper it, scream it. Phoenix. I want to hold her hand, want to kiss all the stars on her face, and want to cherish the X on the back of her neck. I want to cherish her. I don't like: Phoenix."

Virgin Lips de TheWritingWolf1

Joanna Brooks had her life all planned. She'd have graduated in time, got a great job, had a successful career. In the middle there would have been a relationship or two maybe, but by the age of 25, she'd have been happily in a stable relationship, working for a well known newspaper as journalist. She'd have never guessed, when she was 12, that none of these plans would work out. 28 years old, stuck with a crappy job and no love life whatsoever. Future seemed as bleakas ever. With two new kittens, Joanna was readying herself to start her life as crazy cat lady...but her new neighbor, handsome and lovely photographer Ben Harris, doesn't seem to think it that way, as he gets ready to revolutionize her whole existence. Trouble is, his own life is not as crystal clear as he pretends it is. Add two pervasive friends determined to close the chapter in Joanna's life called "virginity" by hooking her up with their cute brother, plus an unsettling return, and you get Joanna's adventure of a lifetime. DISCLAIMER This story is intended for all those girls that have troubles seeing themselves as the beautiful beings they are. This is for you, beautiful girls. Be yourself. Don't be ashamed of you are. Just embrace your own unique nature. Be chubby, skinny, shy, introvert, extrovert, weird, crazy, lovely...whatever it is, just BE YOURSELF.

Southern Charm de anj6232

Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations for a twenty-four-year-old. While others her age might be in college or embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!

Sex, sexual assault, assault, abusive relationship, obsessive and possessive behavior, depression, self-harm, suicide, violence, blood, gore, horror, murder, death, stalking, torture, harassment, drug usage, and strong language. I would like to thank @tofuu-chann for the original story idea of a sex-crazed apocalypse, as well as some details. I would also like to thank @tofuu-chann for creating and allowing me the use of Original Characters Nael and Seren. The cover was created utilizing Canva for editing purposes. It all starts in a lab with an acne medication trial. Then chaos ensues. Everyone is obsessed with sex and spreading their disease. Follow Kane, one of the original study participants, Jason, the crazed obsessive doctor, Colours, the object of Jason's obsession, and a bunch of sex-crazed, zombie-like people as they all try to navigate a new, darker world. Excerpt...A mewling sound and a weight on my lap awakens me. I am startled to find that a green haired, yellow eyed, pink faced woman is sitting on my lap straddling me. She leans forward and forces me into the most disgustingly fierce lip-lock that I have ever encountered. I struggle, but she won't let go. Right as her tongue forces its way into my mouth, I bite it off on instinct. She throws her head back in a scream. I flex my arms, breaking the restraints the rest of the way, and shove her as hard as I can. She falls off of me and slides over to the wall as I spit out her tongue onto the floor. She sits for a minute, then gets up and hurries toward me again. I hold my finger up and point at her, "Stop!" To my surprise, she comes to a hard stop and just stares at me. "How'd you do that?" Jason asks.

CountryCore Series: From Osaka to Paris (WLW) de 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

Always light the candles de dddfakeddd

We are too drunk and he is too close and even though we are in a room full of people, we are too alone. -------------------------- Notes: This fan fiction is dedicated to people who have experienced loss, people who were bullied, who struggled with their sexuality and or their race. People who use humour as their coping mechanism. People who feel like outcasts and freaks. People who fell in love with their best friends. You are not alone. You are Albus. And this is our story. It is also dedicated to grief, for showing me the true price for love. And most importantly dedicated to my one and only best friend. This story would not have seen the light of day, had our paths not diverged and our friendship not quietly scattered to the winds. In the closing of chapters, I made sure that the echo of our promises that we once held were not just words, but something truly heard. I will never not think of you during storms. Make sure to leave your thoughts and enjoy ;) This story can be also found on Ao3.

The Way It Should Be de MinaComplex

"How strange is it to love the thing - no, the place - that ruined your life?" He asks me, of course, rhetorically. "You're a mad woman that needs to be put down, but not before I get that vampire kid." My name is Alicia Tux Woods. This is the story of how my best friends and I manages to single handedly ruin not only our own lives, but everyone around us. No... not even just that, we ruined life for hundreds of thousands of people. On accident, of course, it just goes to show how such a small soul can change everything, within seconds. (Based on the book series Cirque Du Freak)
