Fire and Ash de RayaJean

While being crushed by the weight of poverty, violence, hierarchies, and the odds that always seem stacked against them, Ringer and his friends struggle to stay afloat. When a girl from the other side of town forces her way into their tight-knit group, the narrative shifts as they form an unusual bond. But tensions run high in the streets, and when someone they love is ripped away, they're willing to burn everything down around them in the name of vengeance. And she becomes the bait. When you don't know who to trust, who's out for your blood, or what threat lurks around every corner, how do you keep your sanity intact? The instinctual need for survival, the feral need for revenge, or the desperate need for love... Which one is powerful enough to prevail? (18+ violence, explicit language, sexual themes, racial themes, violence, references to self-harm)

The stag hunt with the scarlet heart de mariansangroniss

There are four pillars of destiny. The day, hour, month, and year of our birth are used to predict someone's future. Did this determine my life, did I condemn myself to events that shaped me forever, or do we just assign a name to what we can't control, the actions of others, or how we are triggered by our history. This is my story, I'm Saffron Avery. Don't expect it to be motivational or romantic. There is nothing motivational about me, but I did fall in love. It didn't end well, there were very few pieces left intact. Callum. A yeti with long blond hair, he didn't see what my eyes were screaming. Pain. But I saw his. In them was the love I lost years ago that neither he nor anyone else could bring back. He thinks he can hurt me, but he can't, because I am the villain in this story. This is what I am, what I was, and maybe what I ever will be, but it is my story, not ours. MINE. Don't expect me to be feminist or empowered or take over the world. I'm just fighting to survive... Just like you.

Start All Over × Luke Hemmings de cuddlinghemmings

New Country. New School. New Friends. New Life. New Beginning. Fresh Start. Clean Slate. Start Over. Have you ever wanted to move away and start all over again? That’s all Vanessa has ever wanted. She wants to move away from the life she has grown to hate and start her life all over again. Bullies. Abuse. Depression. Self-Hatred. Weak. Useless. Pathetic. Lost. Feeling unwanted and under-appreciated aren’t new feelings for young Vanessa Bell, living in constant fear and worry isn’t either. It can take just a few words to bring someone’s self-esteem plummeting for the ground and add a few bruises here and there and all self-worth will be lost. Feeling numb from all the pain is usually a good thing but when you’ve been hurt so much to the point where you don’t feel anything anymore. You’ll often find yourself asking “What is the point?” or “Why do I even bother?” Maybe Vanessa will find her way, maybe in a place called Sydney, maybe with the help of a boy named Luke. When Vanessa chooses to “Start All Over” maybe she’ll find it’s the best decision she’s ever made. {Warning: Will contain triggering thoughts and action and involves sensitive topics like depression, death, suicide and abuse} **This is very poorly written because when I wrote it I was 13 so please read knowing that I was a very dumb 13 year-old or read later when I've finished rewriting which is a slow process but I'm getting there, sorry** UNDERGOING EDITING COPYRIGHT © 2012-2013 CUDDLINGHEMMINGS

Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
