When Alya finds her boyfriend of 2 years in bed with someone else, all the insecurities she had tried to keep at bay come crashing down on her at once. But Alya isn't the type to let things happen... No. She doesn't give herself the opportunity to feel bad about it for longer than a weekend.

How to Fall... Without Trying To (GirlxGIRL)
Being gay is hard. Like really hard. Especially for a socially awkward introvert like Queen, who grew up single for fear of being out there. When Queen's friends make her a dating app profile, it all starts to change for her. She meets a few people that interest her and give her a little light of hope for her dating life. Lana is a high strong girl, with a dark past that she'd rather forget, who knows what she wants and knows how to get it, but when she meets Queen? That all changes. She starts to doubt who she is, a straight female that wants to marry a nice guy and live in a white picket fence home one day. Lana was only looking for friends on the dating app, but has she found more than that? This book has multiple characters in it with different points of views. It's not based off the two characters alone, but more on a group of people surrounding their lives. This book contains a lot of sexual content, strong language, and some mature content such as abuse. Read at your own discretion, I make no apologies ;)Complete
