After a hard divorce, Ada's life changed into one of maturity and responsibility. Taking care of her younger, troubled sister, making dinner, cleaning the house, keeping files organized all became Ada's life while her mother went out to fill the hole left by her father in the workplace. Rather than fantasize about hotties, go out to a drinking party, or even play sports, she concentrated on cleaning, working part-time, and schoolwork. Distractions were not welcome. 

In contrast, Cristian looks for distractions of any form--especially female. Flirtatious, suave, and fun-loving, Cristian's a huge party wrapped up in one convenient person. He has traveled around the globe with his parents and has had opportunities in life many could only dream of.

So what happens when the debonaire Cristian transfers to Ada's school and they intermingle? What happens when they each learn about the secrets hidden within each other's past? Will they burn out or help each other turn on the light?All Rights Reserved

Beyond by annadavid17

Thomas is a shameless guy of an outstanding beauty, rebellious and greedy for life. Transferred for misconduct from London in a private school in the outskirts of Milan for his father's order, he looks like an alien at a country fair: him, conscious of his superiority but disoriented, and the others, especially the fairer sex, staring at him open mouth. During his exile he's entrusted to Anna, his new classmate; the hope is that she could help him to recover at school, but not only this. Anna is a young wounded angel. About the life, until that moment, she has mainly knew hardness and suffering, becoming the guardian of a terrible secret which doesn't allow grandstanding or distractions. She's an expert on battles against monsters, she identifies Tom's one and in the silence of a discreet friendship she takes care of his weaknesses until healing him. He's impressed, also grateful, and wants to return the favour, but to help her is much more difficult. Very different Annie and Tom's worlds, but equally troubled by challenges worth a lifetime. Guys animated by the yearning to fully enjoy every moment, to accumulate experiences without worrying too much about consequences, from high to the first heartbeats, where moments of collective exaltation are followed by small and large personal dramas. An alternation of funny and touching landscapes, a bittersweet recipe to savour again the most beautiful and free years of the life. To know more, look for me on Facebook.

The Way We Fell in Love... by Vaishnavi_Patil08

Lily never expected high school to be anything more than books, competitions, and a small circle of friends. But when she meets Nick-handsome, mischievous, and just as smart as he is annoying-everything changes. Along with Maria, the sweet and cheerful friend she quickly grows close to, and John, their ever-dramatic partner-in-crime, the four of them form an inseparable gang. Between endless teasing, pranks, and playful banter, something begins to shift. Lily finds herself falling for Nick-only to realize that Maria might feel the same way. Choosing friendship over love, Lily distances herself, breaking her own heart in the process. But what happens when Nick starts noticing the space she's put between them? As misunderstandings grow, feelings become impossible to ignore, and one confession changes everything. Through awkward moments, laughter, and stolen glances, Lily and Nick's love story unfolds in the most unexpected way.

NANOWRIMO 2019, LET'S GO! :) U.S Army veteran Alessio Milani never asked for the hand fate dealt him. He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, which led him into the depths of NYC's criminal underground. Now, as director of the infamous smuggling and counterfeiting syndicate known as "The Flight," he commands respect from his people with a just but iron fist, operating with only a few cardinal rules: 1) Keep it clean. 2) No dealing in people. 3) Never touch women without their consent. Alessio takes care of violators personally. He never desired marriage. Considering his clandestine (and illegal) profession, the notion never crossed his mind. The less people known to be associated with him, the less individuals he puts at risk. He finds himself at the altar, however, with a shy bride because his best friend, Thaddeus Andino, asked Alessio to protect his niece...and, well, Alessio's instincts kicked in, and he couldn't say no. He doesn't know how he's going to make this work, and neither does Vasilisa Andino--nay, Vasilisa Milani. Alessio tries to keep her life separate from his as much as possible...but Murphy's law seems to rule differently. Only God knows what'll happen next.

Learning How to Bend by 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.
