Braylin's life has been hard. But now, with her father put in prison for all the abuse he has put her through, she is working to find a better place. As she waits for her aunt to finish moving to town, she is staying with her life-long best friend, Jonah, and has a feeling that this is her chance to change things for good.
But it's hard to stop flinching everytime she feels a hand on her back or open up about all those years stuck with her dad. Memories haunt her like a ghost from her past and it's hard to believe in this God that Jonah keeps telling her about, with unconditional love and mercy.
One fateful night, Jonah's kindness breaks open a door to something Braylin would never have seen coming. Somehow, this stranger that Jonah offers a meal and bed to will turn Braylin's life toward something bigger than she could have ever predicted.

*4th story in Beauty of God series: While I would love for you to read the other three stories, you don't have to read them to understand this one!!* Kason loves his sister more than anyone in the world. So when her abusive boyfriend leaves her broken and pregnant, his only goal is to make sure she and the baby are okay. But it's hard when he doesn't have any control over the situation and when Kaybree is close to being unfixable. Add in ex girlfriend problems and the stress of college, and Kason's life just seems close to collapse. But then there's Sav, the kind, calm, sarcastic nurse intern that somehow makes everything slightly less stressful. Not only does she seem to be one of the only lights in Kason's life, but she also introduces him to someone that he's been hearing more and more about recently: Jesus. With everything stacking on top of each other, will the small graces like a new best friend and a Savior that might be the answer to it all be enough to keep Kason from going under? **REVIEWS** "Oh my goodness I just HAVE to say Golden Rain is definitely my favorite book on WattPad." ~ @SmileyRiley_1 "The story overall is AMARZING!!!

One Shots! by TheBlaisse

I decided that if I'm going to be writing one shots for a lot of my stories, then why not make a new book for it?

A Girl Named Callie by MidnightRose55

*sequel to A Boy Named Jasper* ~~~~~ When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to get well?" (John 5:6) ~~~~~~ Jasper has been in L.A. for almost five years. Not a day went by where he wasn't plastered on the cover of some tabloid or another, mostly for things that would've made Callie's brown eyes droop in disappointment. He hadn't seen her beautiful eyes in person in years, the touring life having taken him away from Texas most of the time. She didn't seem to mind though; she stopped calling as frequently, stopped video-chatting him for hours on end. Her life seemed just as busy as his was. Callie was about to graduate college. Full-ride scholarship, honors and a 4.0 GPA all culminating in a psychology and counseling double-major degree. She has a job lined up at a non-profit and a head full of unrelenting optimism. Not a day goes by that she doesn't think about Jasper and his new life in L.A. His blue eyes still live in her memory, immortalized in her lock screen, but she hasn't seen him in person in years. Callie didn't mean to stop calling and Jasper didn't mean to close himself off like before. Life just got in the way as it always does. They weren't unrecognizable, exactly, but they definitely weren't the same people. Callie was still a ray of sunshine with her relentless positivity and Jasper had reverted back to being a thunderstorm with a penchant for things he swore he'd never get involved in. All it took was one night for him to get back to square one. But things always get worse before they get better.

But Ella wasn't expecting to meet Jordan, and she certainly wasn't expecting to feel the need to help him. She wasn't in Edwards County to share her faith, but God works in wonderful ways, especially in the most crucial of times. For Jordan, it's exactly what he needs because his time is running out. *This is a sequel to my short stories called Indigo Skies and Maroon Nights.

When Jake came into her life, he changed everything. She knew from the start that theirs would not be a fairytale romance. They came from two different worlds but could Jake find a way to make her part of his? ******** The thought of him going to the other room and leaving me, literally made my body ache, didn't he know how much I needed him? I wasn't going down without a fight. Slipping my t-shirt off of my shoulder, I gave him my best pouty face and pleaded with him, "You wouldn't leave me all alone in this big, cold bed would you?" He shot me a look that I can only describe as a warning, "Fight fair Sky, I am only human!"

Little Red Robin Hood by NightsOfFog

"You've seen him? The grey wolf?" Raine Swann has always been an outsider, now more than ever. Homeless and jobless in a strange town where people are oddly suspicious, he considers going back home and taking up an offer from an old friend. But he can't. He can't because his truck is attacked and his secret discovered. Instead of taking the hate, the glances, the judgement, like he used to, Raine tells a new "friend" about his past, along with the weird dreams he's been having. But that's when things start to get weird. Apparently, dreaming about a mysterious god in a town full of magic users who worship said god isn't normal. *Warning!

Stranger Not So Danger by rosegolden_

"When I first met you, you were a complete stranger. But through time, I thought I really started to get to know you. To know the way you react to things, the way you look to the side when you're nervous, and ultimately, the way you feel about me. But, right now, after all that you've said, you feel more like a stranger to me than you ever did before." I can't believe those words just came out of my mouth. I was hurt, and my heart was shattered like a hammer colliding with a mirror. Broken, by one of the only people I trusted would never break me. ~~~~~ Lindsey Grey was regretting going to the basketball game in the first place.

The Girl with No Emotions by vloria_vines

I was just thinking. I swear. But maybe my mind over thought. It's weird that everything can seem so simple, straight forward. Black and white. Two colors. So obvious. So there. Him and Her. Two people. So obvious. So there. But once you add gray, things get kind of complicated. Then you add color. And it's a wonderfully complicated bright world. She's two in one. The storm and the shade. No one ever stops to thank the storm for shading them from what's above it. What if the sun was too strong, too powerful that day and the storm came along just to protect us all from it? It was this epic battle between the two and the storm was hurting and it cased all this damage to the earth. No one thanks the storm for its sacrifice when it finally loses the battle and the sun shows its smug face. We all hate the storm for the disaster it created and praise the sun, when the storm just wanted to protect us. The storm and the shade. She's the storm and the shade. She's the chaos and the calm. Only I can't see the chaos. Not fully. She's keeping it all inside. All I see is the calm. I can tell though. I can tell there's chaos. I just can't see it. It's not so black and white. It's not a simple boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. It never was. But I like her. I do. The storm and the shade.

What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.

Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

The Light House Girl. by Growling_moon

17-year-old Abigail Wells, known as Abbie, is shipped off to live with her estranged mother. The same woman whom Abbie has not seen since she was about three years old. Abbie's dad, Keith, is not a good guy and hates her passionately. Her home life was not good growing up yet he was the only parent she has ever known. Her only constant. Adeline Cobwell, Abbie's mother, lives in a small town, Reef's Paradise located in Florida. As the name indicates, the town is sort of a paradise for people residing there. Hidden alcove of a town, separated from busy cities surrounding it. The local saying, 'once you are here, you never want to leave,' is something all townsfolk here adhere to. Just like any other small town, Reef's Paradise has its own stories and secrets. Most of such stories are known to all the residents but unknown to the newcomer, Abbie. One such intriguing story is about the Light House, located at the far end of the town on a deserted beach. There is something about the stories, and the Light House itself that attracts Abbie even before she finds out a secret, hiding in it. This is a story about Abbie's journey to self-discovery, to learn what love and care truly mean. Being a teenager is not easy nor is peeling off layers of masks, especially when you have them on for so long. When anger is the only emotion Abbie's known to express for so long things are bound to explode. This is my first story here. Comments and feedback are appreciated. Disclaimer: The people and places mentioned here are fictional. Warning: Use of Foul Language.

Still the Storm (Chasing the Storm, #2) - PUBLISHED by NayaRS

If you have read the book and would like to leave a review, thank you! Please do so here: https://amzn.com/B01GWB8Z6G ----------------- He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" - Mark 4:39 *** Is love blind? Does love deny the existence of wounds? Of scars? In the eyes of Chase Jones, these questions and more are all that ever stay within the storm that is his life. All else in its path either runs or faces its demise. To survive this path alone, he first had to accept the word as truth. Alone. Until his butterfly returned, rippling his sea with each flutter of her wings, stirring new hopes, dreams, and the dangerous possibility that the word alone may be yet another thing he will have no choice but to let go of. To let go of such a reality would be a risk, one he is unprepared for. While it is the answer to his most desperate prayers, it is also the fear that strengthens the storm.

Angels | Ghosts Of The Past 2 [BoyxBoy] ✓ by Pinkrainbowcorn

"Why are you acting so weird?" "Well, you're kind of naked." I say matter-of-factly. "Nothing you haven't seen before." Sky says casually. I feel a blush rise to my cheeks. He does remember. Sky never talks about that time. "You remember." I mumble. "Chase, I can't hear you from all the way over there.." I walk into the bathroom feeling awkward and like I'm intruding on his privacy or something. But Sky just keeps on showering like nothing's going on. × × × Chase and Sky had sex. It happened two years ago on a whim. Sky (who's also the father of Chase's niece) seems to have forgotten all about it. Chase definitely hasn't. Anxious loner Chase Chambers was never popular in high school. In his third year, this suddenly changes. As the girls begin to notice him, he begins to notice an emptiness inside. Desperate for real connection Chase seeks it in the darkest of places. Oliver Sky, Chase's longtime crush and sister's baby daddy goes through his own struggles as he reconnects with a ghost of the past. Chase and Sky help each other through difficult times and grow unbelievably close. ...Maybe even too close. Love, trauma and a complicated family. The story of Ghosts of the Past continues. =TRIGGER WARNING: Depression (and everything surrounding it), abuse and more=
