Country Dream [Completed ✅] by Estella_Dean

"What'cha looking at?" I asked, in a cheeky tone. "Uh.....nothing......you just look nicer, that's all...." Mattias muttered. I grinned smugly. That's right, Mattias - never judge people on their first appearance. Liz is on her way up to a swim carnival in the city when her family is forced to stay for a few days at a famers house. At first, she is rudely ignored by the two sons, and decides to ignore them back.... but then she finds herself falling for one of them. Does her really like her back? And in the end, is it worthwhile for her to get emotionally invested? Read on and find out! ⚠ Short Disclaimer⚠ I wrote this whole plot when I was about 15-16, so my age will be reflected in the writing style & quality of this story. This is written from a romanticised viewpoint of a teenage girl who was living in the country at the time. That's apparently where I was at this time in my emotional maturity (and yes, I may have known a boy a bit like Mattias). So, bear with me - you've been warned. Buckle up and jump on board if you're ready to enjoy a classic, cheesy country romance with a short plot twist!

Submerged in Your Love (✔️) by SignorinaAnon

Cover by @AndiApplexoxo ****MATURE CONTENT IN BOOK**** ****YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED**** Her world is dark. His is bright. She is like a ray of sunshine. He is like a dark storm cloud. To get involved with each other would certainly end in disaster.... Or would it? Put in each other's lives when they both desperately need someone can't be a coincidence... Or could it? What are the odds that he understands her and she understands him? Can their unlikely friendship turn into something more or will others intervene? With so many odds against them can they find a way to power through together? Or will they be struck down? You know what they say. If you can't run then walk. If you can't walk then crawl. If you can't crawl.... Then maybe try swimming.

Dive by H__Blanca

SOPHIE BROOKS: Party, hook-up, hangover, repeat. I don't do rules, responsibility, or monogamy. So when the chance to sleep with the hottest Olympian swimmer in the country presents itself, you can be damn sure I take it. And sneak out before he wakes up the next morning. This has been my way of life for years, and nothing has challenged it. Until him. Charming, ambitious, he draws me in and then refuses to leave. He's persistent, annoyingly so, keeps coming back like a damn boomerang. And he's getting a little too close, asking a little too many questions. Questions I refuse to answer. Some things are just supposed to stay forgotten. JAYDEN SENNELS: Swimming is my life. I basically breathe water. Growing up the way I did, going to the Olympics seemed like an unattainable dream. But here I am, just fresh out of my first games, and I messed up. Big time. Everything was riding on me doing well. Failing wasn't an option. Now I have one last year at college to redeem myself. Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me. From the moment I saw her, I knew. This woman is trouble in high heels. She will destroy me. And I am going to love it. 🏊‍♂️ WARNING: Strong language and sexual content. This is a book about when the past comes back to haunt you. Book #1 in the Medley series

asphyxiate by EscapeYourMisery

"Drowning is not the worst part. Lacking the courage to breathe is." No one saw her struggle. No one saw her scars. No one saw her bleeding. No one saw her tears. No one saw her depression. They never realized the deep waters she swam. If only someone would. What if someone did? Completed 11/07-17 ©EscapeYourMisery
