41 parts Complete Mature
Billy Miller is not gay. He's not even sure he's anything at all because he doesn't like people. But that's alright. His parents, his fish and his clingy neighbor he can't quite get rid of since middle school are enough for him. For now. --- Billy is a Junior in high school and he likes to think he's pretty cool. He enjoys making lists and he adores animals. He doesn't bother people and people don't bother him back, at least that's what he would expect. Until, as he hides in a closet at a party he was forcefully dragged in, he witnesses two boys french-kissing in there. One of them is Tavish McCloud. The other, it doesn't matter. Billy's mind spins and spins. Tavish is a perplexing hot mess that Billy doesn't know much about. His only choice is to make a list. - He knows his name is pronounced as Thomas. - He knows he's tall and handsome. - He knows he's Scottish. - He knows he's a senior with two grade retentions. - He knows he partakes in a crazy amount of lifting competitions. - He knows he has won a crazy amount of lifting competitions as well. - He knows he might enter the Olympics in a few years; everyone has been talking about it at school. - He knows he's hotheaded; everyone talks about it too, but behind closed doors. - He knows he has fucking nice hands. And, what he doesn't know yet but he's about to learn soon, Tavish can be annoying as fuck when he makes pestering you his life mission. --- Somebody's in the closet. Somebody hasn't even had the courage nor the will to step into the closet. That makes for a pretty neat love story.

Featured on @Romance in September 2024. Cover art by the fabulous LNRoberts1. It's 2019 and university student, Olivia O'Shea, doesn't possess the luck of the Irish as her name might suggest. Instead, she's feeling like she might just be the unluckiest girl on the planet. Her high school sweetheart, Daniel Burns, whom she continued to date in college, was found with his fingers, and a few other more salacious body parts in someone else's cookie jar. Now it's summer vacation and Olivia is back in her hometown licking her wounds and trying to forget it all. At their old high school's international food festival, Olivia runs into Daniel with his new girlfriend, and a storm is definitely brewing. But this storm is a real one with thunder, lightning and rain, and Olivia, caught out in the open, is suddenly struck by lightning. She wakes up in the high school infirmary only to find that she's been transported back to high school with the chance to do it all over again. Olivia is determined to ditch Daniel, in spite of his stubborn advances, and instead tries to rekindle an old flame with the shy introverted Jack Garcia, with whom she'd shared one very spectacular kiss back in high school. As Olivia attempts to pursue Jack, Daniel keeps getting in the way and frustrating her plans. Can she really change her future for the better, or is history only meant to repeat itself? If you liked the iconic 1980s rom-com Peggy Sue Got Married, then you'll love this modern retelling of the classic, time-travel, do-over, second chance at love.

A reflection. Do you like yours, love yours or hate yours? There's many people in this world who dislike theirs, not because of the physicality that they see in a mirror, but because they know what's lurking behind the eyes that stare. So much can be seen in yourself from your own pair of eyes, things that others don't seem to see. Do you know why that is? That's because no one knows you better than you know yourself. A pair of eyes could seem so kind, warm and innocent to the world, but only yourself could know the true darkness behind them. There's one person in this world who knows exactly what I'm talking about. He knows the infuriating, angering feeling of the painful suffering he experiences when his own eyes meet his reflection's. Deadly, severe, menacing: is what he sees. Everyone who looks into them simply see a bright pair of ocean eyes. Blue. That's all they see. But only himself knows he's drowning in the tidal waves of their deep ocean. And no one cares enough to notice, to help, or to save. Until her. She used to think fire was more murderous than ice. Little did she know, that would all change at first glance. She saw the eyes, she noticed their blue, she stared for a second too long, and now she knows that there's no going back. He'll claim her. ~If I take a step away from him, he takes a step closer to me. If I run, he'll find his way back.~ ~I'm trying my goddamned hardest to not act on the ache I'm feeling to place my lips on hers, just to have a little taste, because I don't want to appear as some sex-driven teenage boy who just wants to claim her body. Because I don't. I want to claim her heart.~ *Mature content: Strong language, aggressive behaviour, sexual content etc.* Note: Don't skip past the prologue. A bit of the dialogue or description in the first half of the book may seem slightly immature; I'll have to edit that when I get the chance. Started: 31/08/18 Completed: 02/04/19

Twenty-year-old Rachel West has dedicated her life to her one, big dream -- to become a respected journalist. Fresh out of university and over the moon to be starting her new job at a national newspaper, Rachel feels that her dream may soon be a reality. But when it becomes apparent her new employers aren't interested in hard hitting exposés, Rachel finds herself having to write about the one thing she knows nothing of -- relationships. Although largely sceptical and somewhat terrified of what she'll uncover, Rachel is determined to prove herself. So, with her small group of friends acting as guides, she embarks into the uncharted world of dating. And as her journey takes her deeper into the pursuits of love, Rachel starts to wonder if maybe she shouldn't have been so quick to judge. *This book is being severely edited, please excuse any/all mistakes, errors or general weirdness*
