Fragments of Him by wok_lee

She thought she'd let it all go---until the memories came back. Years after middle school, the past still lingers in unexpected ways. Through dreams and quiet moments, she starts to remember pieces of a time she thought she'd outgrown. A boy. A friend group. A version of herself she hasn't seen in years that she almost forgot about. What begins as nostalgia slowly unravels into something deeper---a quiet ache she never named, emotions she buried before she understood them. As she sorts through the fragments, she begins to realize: healing doesn't always come from forgetting. Sometimes, it comes from remembering. A reflective and emotional coming-of-age story told through memory, loss, and the subtle power of looking back. Based on a true story

REBOUND by JanilseElizabeth

Sierra thought moving to Sterling would be a fresh start. New campus, new opportunities, and a relationship that felt like it would last forever. Instead, she finds herself stranded in heartbreak, hiding out at her best friend Bianca's apartment and replaying memories she can't unsee. One long evening seems to change everything, and Sierra must choose between staying trapped in her ex's shadow or trusting a different light to guide her. A story of friendship, betrayal, and the messy, beautiful journey of reclaiming yourself after the fall.

Taunt by meepsahir

"Can we stop feeling guilty, Amelia? Guilty for all the things that weren't our fault." "We can Leo. Maybe someday." "That day isn't far off Amelia. I'll make sure of it." ___________________________________ There is a lot to think about when you find out your best friend has been raped and murdered. There is even more to think about when you're the last person she saw the night she died. But that's not what caused me to black out in the middle of a rocking party scene, surrounded by all the people I had known all my life. It was when I saw who had killed her. Hilarious, charming, the guy with the perfect quiff, and star quarter-back of the football team. He was loved by everyone. He was the guy you couldn't stay away from. Levi Harrison. My brother. ____________________________ #1 for General Fiction in The Grace Awards 2019 #1 College Romance 11/19 #3 Bullyingawareness 04/20 #2 Assault 06/20 • Started: August 2018 Ended: - January 2020 (Unedited) • WARNING: this book contains a mature theme, not suitable for all audiences.

FAVORITE COMMENTS: ** "One of my all time favorite books, I'll never forget it" (@sedaoriente) ** "I love how easily the chemistry built up between them" (@RuthySinger) ** "It was like a modern day fairytale and there were so many moments when I just needed to stop reading and squeal!" (@fairyluver) ** "Your books are exactly how I expect a romance novel to be!" (@mahajuba) ** "It's unique, simple yet amazing. I actually had a big smile on my face while reading." (@Eman_Othman) ** "One of the most lovely stories that I have read so far on this platform. It's perfect." (@Luxami) ******************* Catherine Rogers found it hard to reject her best friend's brother, who was set on winning her over. He embodied everything she hated in a man, pushy, shallow, and selfish. But, Taylor and she had been friends for over 10 years, and Catherine's constant rejection of him was putting a strain on their long term friendship. Moreover, Catherine's heart was already fluttering for someone else: the endearing stranger she meets on the bus. He was kind, patient, and charming. She didn't even know his name, yet there was just something about him that made her swoon. When this mysterious stranger disappeared, she was left with an aching heart, and nothing more than sweet memories of a man who made her smile every time they met. She feared she would never see him again. Until one day, the most unexpected thing happened. --------- A biiiig thanks to all those who loved, voted and commented on Catherine's story. I'm taking the story down from Wattpad because I'm working on publishing it. It's hard work, but it would be a dream come true, please cheer me on. Thanks again for all the love and support! ^^ #42 in chicklit 13th Nov. 2017 Text Copyright © 2017 by Oluwaseun Agunbiade

I Loved You Blindly [Complete] by Water_Lili

'Accidents happen'. That's what people say. Yet, some accidents take away from us more than others. Ethan had it all. Everything was lined up in front of him. Popularity, looks, friends, a hot girlfriend and a promised future in football. In one incident that resulted in a horrible accident, he lost it all. The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable. Skye saw through the walls that Ethan has built around himself. Drawn to him, slowly, their friendship started to turn into something else.

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Whispers of us by Grace63662

When tragedy strikes her family, Jasmine and her mother struggle to move forward. As a last resort, the family decides to move out of town, searching for peace away from the city that holds their worst nightmares. Making up for the year she lost, Jasmine enrolls in a dual program for her first and second years of med school. She however, didn't anticipate learning more than just medicine, and finding much more than what she came looking for. Liam Damien Myers has decided to never rely on anyone since he lost his mother to the big C. Navigating life alone, steering away from other people's business, the last thing he expected was to get caught in the new girl's world. A journey of healing, friendship, and a chance at love. ----------- P.s. since I'm a new writer the first couple chapters might sound a little cringe, but I swear it gets better so soon. It'd be nice if you keep reading till the end and I'd appreciate your support for this new hobby of mine. You're free to call me out on any errors or scenes that you don't like in the comments, be nice though. I really would love to read your comments on the book, so keep commenting, I'll try to always reply. Luv u. Enjoy.
