22-year-old Emery was already feeling directionless before the pandemic hit, and now that it's in the midst of the spring of 2020, things couldn't get much worse. She's laid off, single, and living with her older sister's family while dealing with her annoying (but also kind of cute) sister's brother-in-law, who's always hanging around. She wasn't prepared for any of this.
But the thing she's LEAST prepared for?
Motherhood.

The Slowest Kind of Love 3: All This Time [MilkLove]
A story about timing. About liking someone when you're not supposed to. About falling for a friend when things aren't simple. About confusion and self-doubt. About staying close even when your heart wants to run. This story follows Pansa and Loveruk. Two people who were almost something for a long time. They become real friends. The type of friends where you share snacks, show up without asking, and pretend it's nothing when it's obviously something. 📌✦ Author's Rights Notice ✦ This story is an original work.

The Cowboy in Aspen
A teacher turned volunteer. A quiet cowboy and his little boy. One accidental introduction - and two lives that start to find each other across continents, time zones, and fate itself. Because sometimes, the right person is waiting in a place you never planned to go. ************************************* For Isla Cohen, this year is about saying yes. Yes to adventure. Yes to helping others. Yes to something more. Teaching can wait - but volunteering in Sri Lanka and backpacking across Europe with her best friend, Hazel, can't. Meanwhile, halfway across the world, Hazel is working a ski season in Aspen, Colorado - where she befriends three brothers: Asher, Reid, and Finn Calloway, visiting from their family ranch in Canada. Between snowstorms and coffee shifts, stories start to travel both ways. The brothers hear about Isla - bright, stubborn, and full of sunshine - and can't help but imagine how perfectly she'd suit their brother, Levi, a quiet cowboy and devoted single dad who hasn't smiled the same since everything changed. And Hazel agrees. Maybe fate just needs a little push. With one meddling best friend and three matchmaking brothers, two strangers who've only heard about each other begin to fall for a love story that feels written in the stars. Because sometimes, even across oceans, the heart knows where it belongs.

To Capture A Bride
|Updates every Tuesdays| "Come with me." I laugh and wipe the beads of sweat off my forehead. "And why would you think I'd go anywhere with you?" I ask. He fills his cheeks with air and glances at the time on his watch, before slipping his hands slowly into his pocket. "I might have told everyone at the party that I'm engaged..." I chuckle and sprinkle extra flour on the dough before continuing to knead it. "And you want me to come with you to see if she's a good match for you? Since when did we become acquaintances?" I laugh. He lets out a guilty laugh. "No I... I told them I'm engaged to you." ✄------------------------------------------------------------ Baker, Aileen Wilmore, will do anything to preserve the legacy of her parents.

Always Almost
Emery James has spent most of her life loving Wesley Hayes quietly. Best friends since childhood, they've shared late-night pizza, prom slow dances, and one unforgettable night they never talk about. Now twenty-four, Emery's a Brooklyn-based columnist with a carefully curated life and a heart full of unfinished feelings. When a new love interest enters the picture-someone who sees her fully and actually shows up-Emery is forced to confront what she's spent years avoiding: the truth about Wesley, the weight of what they almost were, and what she really wants now. Caught between a boy who's never claimed her, a man who might actually mean it, and the complicated threads of friendship, family, and self-worth, Emery must decide: hold onto the comfort of almost, or risk it all for something real.Complete
