Ella:
College is overwhelming for everyone. Add being a freshman here on a scholarship from Sweden, trying to make a new life for myself, I have no time for any distractions. I need to be on my A game at all times, even when 'mr QB one', or Adonis himself, enters my life. Nothing more can grow between us than friendship. I have to make sure of that.  

Mac:
I have always been a believer at love at first sight and when I see her I know she is it. She insists we can only be friends but I plan to show her how good we are for each other, and as the sizzling attraction between us only grows stronger, it is harder and harder to stay away and I know she can feel it too.

Love is never easy and sometimes we do stupid things in the name of love. One devastating decision leaves them both despair and the question is if they are going to make it out of this stronger than ever, or forever at loss.

"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.

Connections | ✔️ by CxTannir

[COMPLETE] Soz this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

Ice To Meet You by mrigankac

"What else do you want me to say, Mia?" "Did you mean it?" There is a pause and I just-I feel exhausted, the kind that 12 hours of sleep hasn't been able to fix. "Hannah said I don't deserve to be loved, is that how you feel too?" She might not have said it in as many words but that's exactly what she meant. He takes my hand in his and kisses it. "Between the both of us-it's I who doesn't deserve to be loved." "Too bad you already are." "Please stop saying it!" he may not have screamed the words at me but he might as well have. "You think I am lying?" He holds my face with both his hands and looks deep in my eyes. "Mia, I will say this for the last time. I don't do love. I don't want to be loved by anyone and I will never fall in love with anyone ever. If you love me, keep that love to yourself. Please." "Why?" "This is the deal, Mia. Take it or leave it. I will give you my loyalty and my time but I will not have you telling me you love me ever again. I don't believe in love and I can't give you love. Can you live with that?" "What if I can't?"

Second Lanark by RElizabethM

Drama. It was the one thing Elizabeth wanted nothing to do with during her first year of university. She'd had enough of that in high school. At first, it seemed like it was going to be a smooth year: she liked her roommates; the varsity swim team was fun and there was a cute British guy on her floor who made her heart sing. Then, the British boy began spending a lot of time with another girl; the swim team took a risk that could lead to the team's cancellation and two of her roommates started to argue all the time. Suddenly, Elizabeth's first year of university becomes fraught with problems she couldn't have foreseen. It's going to be a heck of a freshman year.

Back For You ✔︎ by braedencoxauthor

❝ Maybe I was meant to come back for you. ❞ We're all used to hearing the typical stories of two people falling in love - they get through life together and wind up with a happy ending. There are endless books, movies, and even real life stories about those love stories. But what about the ones that don't last? What about the stories about two people finding each other and falling head over heels, but they weren't meant to be? Because not everyone who falls in love end up together. Reality isn't always so good, and fair, to everyone. Not every ending is a clichè fairytale ending. Not everyone is that lucky. Ariel Winter and Aiden Maddon are one of the unlucky ones. • • • 「 A UNIVERSITY ROMANCE 」「 COMPLETE 」 DISCLAIMER: This is the first book I wrote after five years of not writing, so it's not my best work. I've grown and learned since then so this story has lots of flaws. If you are looking for better writing, check out my newer books!
