When one of her customers, Celeste, loses her job, a late-night conversation leads her to ask River to join her on a journey that could take them around the world, seeking out new teas for River's shop. A journey that River cannot turn down when the prospect of new teas beckons.

But, tea isn't all that River wants.

Along their adventure, she learns that there are more things in life than tea. And more things to love.

Nobody Like You by AziaElga

Yeju Hwarng no longer believes in love. After breaking up with her long-term girlfriend and watching her parents divorce over the summer, all her passion disappeared, including her passion for science that got her into her microbiology Ph.D. program. When a new roommate moves into the apartment, Yeju recognizes her as more than just a familiar face; she is an enemy that needs to be chased out of her life. Lia Choi does not need love. Her parent never gave her any, and confessing to her childhood best friend over the summer only caused a fall out. Love has proven to be both unnecessary and a liability, and all Lia needs instead is to do well in college and get into a prestigious research position in the microbiology department. Unfortunately, her research mentor turns out to be her new roommate. And she is hell bent on ruining Lia's life. Tension escalates both at home and in the lab, but the more they work together, the more they realize: they have a common goal, and they need each other to achieve that. All they need to do is to open their hearts. Love is hard, but a life without love is harder. *** THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS meets DELILAH GREEN DOESN'T CARE; a STEM-oriented college sapphic romance about struggling adults navigating love despite their broken hearts. *This is a stand-alone spin-off to Cherry On Top. 💫 2023 Watty's Winner! 💫 Editor's Choice, 26 May 2023 - 29 June 2023 💫 Featured on Wattpad's Summer Loving Days reading list, 21 Jul 2023 💫 Featured on the official @lgbt, @Romance, @FreeTheLGBT, and @WattpadAfterDark profile First Published: 2 Feb 2023 Completed Date: 24 June 2023 Edited Date: 22 July 2023 Word Count: 55,000-60,000 Cover art by Sarimopi on Instagram

The Lost Ship (Englot GirlXGirl) by ToriAnne851

"Of course, it is very limiting to be labeled a lesbian or queer writer. We live in a homophobic culture, and even people who aren't hateful per se assume they won't get anything from a queer book." - Michelle Tea She wasn't fond of her when they first met, she hated pretty girls. Pretty girls are always deceiving her, always leaving her in misery. And most of all, stupid. Like the wife she has, sometimes she is lesbian, and other months she can be straight. The woman she once loved turned into her nightmare. But this pretty girl turns out to fill her life more than anybody else could. She makes her smile, she is lovely, and she always knows how to make a good joke. Until a very tempting affair entangles them. She warms her bed, and she fills her life. She makes her feel loved, and she cherishes her with all her life. Her words are her commands. She is her everything. Ava fall first, but Celeste falls harder.

Millie by SPenBooks

Whilst dealing with their own issues solo, they both hope to make it back to each other one way or another... both wanting the same thing. To be healed from their recent family revelations and to be enough for one another. Whilst Wren and Millie's dating ends... and all feels lost, it's the familiar face of Willa Jameson, Wrens grandmother, who sends Millie right back into the family's orbit. It seems, that once the family get attached to a person, they really don't much like letting go. Millie was about to be sucked right back into the thick of it, whilst Wren was somewhat none the wiser. No, Wren was no longer dating Millie... but her family sure were. An email answered, a sibling discovered, a job offer accepted, a feral cat, three new puppies, an incident on a boat, sisters squabbling, baskets being made, goals being scored, family, friends, love interests, new faces, old faces, some hellos and some goodbyes... Heading right back to the family we've come to know and love ... *Autumn 2023* *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE*

Bleeding Color by aciv147

Cameron "Cammie" Bailey is used to moving every few years, so spending her senior year in a new place starting over once again doesn't seem to faze her. The completely boring and mundane last year before college that Cammie expects to spend under the radar seems to be ruined by distractingly beautiful women surrounding her. All Cammie wanted was a peaceful senior year of high school before she could leave for Boston and finally be happy. Cammie wasn't expecting to find someone to make her black and white world start bleeding color.

Anyone But Her by LorPhoenix

Wren and Kenna hated each other in high school. Now mature-ish adults, they still hate each other. The problem? They're engaged. A year away from marriage, according to two of the most powerful people in the world: their parents. ***** Wren Castile and Kenna Gold are engaged...because their parents say so (and no, they're not kidding). Wren has one year to marry her former nemesis, or else. The fact that Kenna emulated her infamously anti-gay father throughout high school seems to be irrelevant--even to Kenna herself. Suddenly Wren and the girl she never wanted to see again are on the same (bickering) side as they face mandatory dates, disastrous family get-togethers, and their unhappy past. Wren is filled with mistrust, but to protect her heart, she might just have to sit back and let it lead the way. Content/Trigger Warning: This story contains references to and/or scenes of homophobia, childhood trauma, bullying, violence, and suicide.
