You only get one shot at true love, right? The kind of love that leaves its mark on you forever, changes you and prevents you from ever being the same again. 

Lexi was prepared to live the rest of her life without that kind of love. The one she had with Brandon. 

Instead, unexpectedly, a man falls into her life, thanks to her daughter's unwitting matchmaking. 

Colton sweeps her off her feet, literally, making her question everything she thinks she knows. Maybe her heart really is stronger after someone else puts it back together.

When Did It Go Wrong? by TahaBoualami

In the midst of his teenage years, a 14-year-old high schooler found himself falling deeply in love for the very first time. However, there was a catch - his beloved was far away, and their relationship was bound by distance. Despite the odds stacked against them, the young boy refused to give up, fighting valiantly to keep the flame of their love burning bright. But fate is a fickle mistress, and three years later, tragedy struck. The boy received the heartbreaking news that his long-distance girlfriend had passed away. Consumed by grief and struggling to make sense of his loss, he turned to his diary for solace, seeking answers to the question that haunted him day and night: when did it all go wrong? As he embarked upon the daunting task of unraveling the enigma before him, our protagonist found himself confronted with an array of formidable obstacles that threatened to entangle him in their grasp and impede his progress. These challenges, which were to prove more insurmountable than he had anticipated, weighed heavily upon him, shackling his life and casting doubt upon his ability to overcome them. Thus began a journey of self-discovery, as the young boy poured his heart out onto the pages of his diary, reliving the memories of his past and grappling with the harsh realities of the present. From the highs of first love to the lows of crushing loss, his story is a poignant reminder of the power of love and the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.)

Embers of Us by koikodama

Lexi has never needed anyone-not even when life forced her to grow up fast, joining the Navy to escape homelessness and a broken home. Now, as a single mother with a guarded heart, Lexi is determined to rebuild her life on her own terms. But when Ethan-a rugged, dangerously attractive mechanic from her past-reappears, her carefully constructed walls begin to crumble. Ethan has always been the quiet, brooding type, content with his tools and his fast motorcycles. He's never been one to chase after women-until Lexi. She's the one who got away, and now that she's back, he's not about to let her slip through his fingers again. Their chemistry is undeniable, sparking every time they're near each other, even after years apart. But Lexi's not ready to let go of control, especially not to the man who knows how to unlock every part of her-body and soul. Ethan doesn't play by the rules, and when they reconnect, the heat between them becomes impossible to ignore. Nights spent tangled in sheets, stolen kisses in the shadows-each moment with Ethan is a temptation Lexi can't resist. But falling for him means risking more than just her heart. As their connection deepens, Lexi finds herself torn between the desire to protect her daughter and the undeniable pull toward a man who makes her feel alive in ways she's never known. In Ethan's arms, she's free-free to surrender to the passion burning between them. But trust doesn't come easy, and when old secrets and new fears threaten to tear them apart, Lexi will have to decide if she's ready to risk it all for the man who just might be her forever. Embers of Us is a steamy, heart-pounding romance that will leave you breathless. Full of fiery passion, second chances, and a love worth fighting for, this story will take you on an unforgettable journey of desire and redemption.

They say time heals all wounds, and in some ways, it did. Four years after his M&M walked away, Elijah has his life on track. The scars were still on his heart and skin, but this was as close to living for something other than her as he'd ever get. Then the call comes. That punch to the gut, time stopping call that could send him right back into the hole that'd taken him two years to climb out of. Hearing about her engagement was one thing. It hurt, but knowing she'd found happiness after all the heartache gave him some measure of hope for himself. But this? This could be his salvation or his end. *Mentions of suicide and drug and alcohol addiction.
