**first draft**
Gwyneth is your average socially awkward bookish 17 year old with a big vocabulary. Problem is, she's illegally moved away from her alcoholic parents and sour childhood environment in search of the life she wants for herself.
Magnolia, Gwen's younger sister, hopes to escape her frustrating parents. She's determined to be exactly like her older sister, but Gwen worries that she's not enough for her.
Finn moves away from his parents in hopes of pursuing his dreams, and opens Booked for the Year, the local corner bookshop on Main Street.
Gwyneth struggles with her multi-faceted daily life: being a teenager in college, the sole breadwinner, a book lover, and a responsible mentor-figure for her younger sister's life. Throw in the adorable bookstore owner who just moved in and a plot to reunite her with her mentally-unstable older brother, and she has herself in quite the tangle.

✅ My Cousin's Keeper [NaNoWriMo 2021] de kittyangelabdl

Gabby wants a little to look after, so she and her girlfriend Ffrances can have the joy of playing with a child. When her cousin Tess comes to stay with her for a year, it looks like a perfect opportunity. Gabby will help Tess to find a childlike headspace, and everyone will have what they want. Unfortunately, Tess is more than a little reluctant, but Gabby knows how to work around that. It might take a little more time, but she's sure that Tess will realise how happy she is to be a baby by the end of the year. --------- This book and The Last New Start tell the same story from different perspectives. Both of them will be complete stories in their own right, but reading them together might give a little more depth. I will be writing these for NaNoWriMo 2021, which means that I will attempt to post at least one chapter of one of the stories every day in November; and if I can write faster than that, then any remaining chapters will be available to all my Patreon supporters (including the $1 tier) for this month. If there's anything in particular you would like to see in this story, please leave me a comment.

Learning How to Bend de micamoney

Liliana "Lily" Hamill is just your average working woman. 5'5" with wavy brown hair the color of milk chocolate and blue eyes, she's never been described by anyone as "a catch." She's pretty enough, what with her athletic frame and well-proportioned face. She rises every day, runs almost every morning, and gets ready for work just like many twenty-something-year-olds in the United States. She's been working mostly in the marketing department at Andino Incorporated since she graduated from a college in Texas at twenty-one, and she's lived in New York City for the past two. She doesn't think she's anyone special. But she is, because Lily has been blind since birth, although her disability has never held her back. That burden has fallen on her insecurities. Now, though, she's attempting to face her fears. Her closest childhood friend, Joseph Montran, has invited her to a company social event, and Lily grudgingly has agreed to go. All she knows is that it's informal, that she and her guide dog, Chelise, can mostly hang out with Joe and his wife, Katherine, if that's what Lily wants, and that she shouldn't be afraid to "act natural." What she doesn't know is that social event will change her life forever. //// I KEEP EDITING AS I'M WRITING.

The Will To de woodlander8

Will is a slut. At least, according to everyone else she is. With a past that both defines her and won't let her go, Will has had enough of the name-calling and assumptions. She's decided to use it all as fuel to get what she wants: to take down Reid Reynolds. Reid is a "bad boy" (a term that makes Will's eyes cross into oblivion) and he represents everything that Will despises. He is a TA in one of her university classes, making her plan even easier. She has an entire year to follow through with her agenda. No problem. It's all under control. Except it isn't. When women start getting assaulted on campus, everything Will is running from begins to catch up with her. She will inevitably have to face it--and decide if getting revenge on the bad boy will actually get her what she wants. NaNoWriMo2021 Warnings: sexual assault, mentions of rape, and stalking.

Why Can't I Be Yours? de joyolokungboye

|| featured @newlywrittenbooks 29/12/2022. *** Michelle Thompson, the eighteen-year-old workaholic is bent on earning her boss's attention at all costs. Though not pushy or... flirty, she's soaked in solid sex dreams which gets worse with each passing day. Slowly and unnoticeably, she develops partial-obsessive tendencies; one that kept her dwindling in the thoughts of having sex with him-even as a virgin! Forgoing his harsh countenance, overly exaggerated reactions, she envisions Charles in the portrait of cold-nineteenth century men that spew flavors of love to their lovers-in the door. And Charles Jackson, built on grace and glamor, could win a medal in egocentrism, pride, rudeness, malevolence, prudishness and of course, beauty! Lurking in the shadows of her emotions and fated to be bewitched by perfect blue eyes that defied everything morality, she might discover that Charles Jackson, heir to Jackson Companies PLC and CED of Westland Airlines was truly born of STONE and FROST. And worse, everything that she believed might just be a lie! ••• Yo guys, quick message. This book is under a critical rewrite, like... at present as I want to complete this writing project before college resumption. I'll be leaving updates about rewritten chapters in the first page of the book, here on Wattapad. The message should come like this "chapter 7 is out, don't read beyond", and kindly oblige to avoid confusions and spoilers.

Unless her mother has her way and manages to pair her off with a local who, to hear her tell it, could solve Julie's man drought.

Torn between a residual love for both men, Julie tries to keep up appearances with her family while allowing Ronan a chance to redeem himself.

The Player & The Pauper | ✓ de Ashley_Mariex

Peyton Church is a city girl by anyone's standards. Born and raised in New York City, she grew up wanting for nothing. She attended the most prestigious preparatory schools, shopped on Fifth Avenue, dined with the rich and famous and was adored by everyone she met. But when Peyton's parents announce they're getting a divorce her senior year, her life turns upside down. With her mother earning sole custody of Peyton and her brother, Peyton is faced with the biggest challenge of her life: leaving her perfect big city life behind and moving to small town Rock Valley, Arkansas.

Out of Time de theeternalscribe

Danielle Carpenter has lived a life some might call boring, but she'd always loved language, and however much her parents might say specializing in Old English is a useless waste of life, it was her passion. But things are about to change. A seemingly harmless pastime leaves her life in shambles; with all she had ever held dear gone, her life is boiled down to just struggling to stay alive. When, months later, she is rescued, it isn't to return to the life she once knew, but to one she's wholly unprepared for. She scrambles for a grasp on things as legend and reality blend. Should she let the legend play out to its foregone conclusion? Or should she try for a happily ever after for all, and the consequences be damned... *This is my 2016 NaNoWriMo project, so enjoy and as always, any feedback is greatly appreciated.*

Don't Write Me Off de marwritesalot

Erika Gonzales is getting better but her best friend thinks otherwise. With a Sharpie-scribbled phone number she copied from the back of a restroom door cubicle, Paula Rivera is determined to solve two problems at once: 1. Help Erika graduate on time by (finally) passing Math 11, and 2. Distract Erika from the almost year-long heartbreak of getting over Gab Rallos--with a complete stranger, romantic-wise or not. Jasper De Jesus, on the other hand, is on a mission to get Corinne Soliman back. The last thing he needs is to tutor someone he barely knows: the girl he remembers as the one who accidentally spilled her drink on him at Walrus, on the night of the break up. When Erika and Jasper finally agree on an arrangement that involves a lot of long nights at the library and writing letters to the one that got away, they form a friendship that could be something more; if only they knew how to make the past stay behind them for good.
