Leila is a lovesick flower, a lily of the valley, a young woman who unwittingly blossoms through the events of this night.  Stirred by her passionate desire to reunite with her love, Leila embarks on a treacherous journey filled with an otherworldly villain who relentlessly pursues her, her own rambling thoughts that both torture and encourage her, and sublime apparitions of her love that only temporarily satisfy her longing.  But after the night's end, Leila will discover a magnificent new reality, one her anxious mind could never have imagined.  She will learn the real identity of her love while tasting the surprising sweetness of a new, higher love.

PEAK is a poetic novel, set in the thick of winter, told through a love-struck young woman seeking to find her love who seemingly vanished after eight years together.  St. Claire's writing is rife with beautiful descriptions and free-flowing movement of the protagonist through various scenes, such as a wintered forest, a frozen river, and an enchanted boardwalk.  

This fantasy fiction serves as a meditation on the Song of Solomon, a book in the Christian bible.  As the scriptural Beloved sings of her love for the Lover no matter his whereabouts or her journeys to search and find him, PEAK's Leila sings just as sweetly for her love.  Yet in Leila's journey, she attains many virtues in her nightly trek, all of which enable her to mature, to understand her love's words, and to finally see him as he is.All Rights Reserved

Mr Kingston's Roommate | ꪜ by XFiction_GoddessX

Highest ranking: #1 in Short Story *Rewriting and Editing on hold* It was a race to leave behind her toxic past, the past that demolished her image, her family, and her sanity. Moving and starting fresh was Leila's number one priority. She desperately sought to avoid the people that constantly reminded her that she was worthless, but never had she thought she would meet someone who made her feel things that she thought she would never experience. . . Extreme anger. After the night that two lives were taken right before her eyes, one of her brother and the other of a little girl, nothing for her has been the same. Being neglected by her own parents and being shoved to the side by friends, falling into depression and self-harm had forced the once extrovert into a dark abyss who chose to finish college in silence. However, after an unfortunate mishap on her first day of school, Leila is stuck sharing a dorm room with no other than Professor Kingston. To Leila, Blake Kingston was nothing but a narcissistic, intellectual spoiled brat who sought to make her life a living hell. However, beneath the surface Blake was more than that, he was a damaged little boy who moved away to escape his troubled past. He never planned to meet a young, stubborn woman such as Leila Hart, who barged into his life with no warning. He never planned to let her see right through his cold and distant facade. For Blake Kingston was the most caring and loving person anyone has met, and Leila Hart knows an empath when she sees one. Little did they know they were both two broken souls who not only needed healing from themselves but from one another. Little did they know they were going to be ROOMMATES. What happens when these two collide? Fireworks and lethal wounds.

Mirai, the Witch of Sight by High_Priestess_Elena

Mirai comes from a long line of witches who have been particularly gifted in using their inner sight. As such, she's trained her sight from a young age. She's always been a disappointment, however, as the only thing she's ever been able to see is the vague image of a girl. On her 18th birthday, Mirai discovers a mark on the back of her neck displaying the number thirty. From her first proper vision, she deduces that unless she finds the girl before the number reaches zero, both of them will die. Only being able to depend on her less than mediocre skills in seeing the future, Mirai sets out to find the girl before the time is up. Little does she know of the trauma the girl has suffered, nor that finding her is only the beginning. ---------- Mature rating due to: smut, violence, suicide (happens in the prologue while POV-character has her back turned), rape (happens in chapter 30 and will be mentions of it afterwards, fade to black, there will NOT be a trigger warning at the beginning of the specific chapter), violent death of babies, some rather bloody scenes, self-harm, extreme guilt. Note that a major part of this story focus on healing from and learning to live with trauma, so though you could potentially read it but skip some specific parts, if you're not comfortable reading something that deals with the listed topics, then this book won't be for you. ---------- This series will contain the following volumes: Volume 1 - Zoe, the witch of innocence (completed) Volume 2 - Crimson, the witch of night (completed) Volume 3 - Morana, the witch of life (completed) Volume 4 - Mirai, the witch of sight (completed) Volume 5 - Danae, the witch of light (ongoing) Volume 6 - Rheseis, the faerie of love

This was real life... this was my religious bisexual life experience. And I take pride in what I wrote here. Of fucking course religious bisexuals go "back and forth" in a homophobic era. You won't have to teach me wrong from right. I'm just sharing one experience to relate to other's similar experiences. We will not be silenced. 🏳️‍🌈❤️‍🔥

At 20, Leila Thompson is still finding her place in the world, navigating college, friendships, and dreams of becoming an artist. At 35, Evan Carter, a successful but jaded architect, feels like life has become a series of unfulfilling routines. Their worlds collide one rainy afternoon in a quaint bookshop. For Leila, Evan embodies the stability and wisdom she craves amidst her chaotic life. For Evan, Leila reignites a passion and spontaneity he thought he'd lost. As their bond deepens, they must navigate the complexities of their connection: the weight of judgment from friends and family, the challenges of balancing their vastly different life stages, and their own internal doubts. Through laughter, heartbreak, and vulnerability, Timeless Hearts explores the question: Can love truly conquer the barriers of time, or are some differences too vast to overcome?

Oops, I'm a Teenager Again? by Honeypie222

Leila Bowen, 27, is done with adulthood-heartbreak, and the existential dread of it all. She wishes she could just be 17 again-no stress, no drama. Then poof-she wakes up 17. Again. But there's a catch: her 27-year-old mind is stuck in her teenage body, and high school is exactly as awkward as she remembers. Enter Matthew Corbin-ridiculously hot, impossibly familiar, and someone Leila's pretty sure she's never met before. Being 17 again? Yeah, it's not as fun as it sounds-especially when you have the maturity of an adult but the social skills of a 17-year-old. Oops.
