In the tranquil waters of Hawai'i, Hokulani and Nikau wonder if it's possible for a song to go on forever. 


                                                                  	                         *****


For as long as Hokulani can remember, she's always felt like she's treading water. Everything she loves becomes a means to escape from what's happening around her or, worse, the unsteadiness of her mind. She even finds her passion for music slipping through her grasp, though she tries her best not to completely let that go. And even though the arrival of an up-and-coming musician from Aotearoa causes waves, she's unable to fully enjoy her life. Unable to release that breath she feels like she's been holding onto ever since her father passed away. 

When her family is hit with complicated news, the Kahananui woman must make difficult decisions for themselves, including one Hokulani isn't sure she fully understands. But even when their choices are made, they bring up memories they've all been trying their best to forget, forcing them to face the reality deep inside the family's hearts.

Hokulani takes refuge in the comfort her shared feelings with Nikau bring, but just because she wants something, doesn't mean it's enough. She knows she has a lot to work through on her own, and with the understanding that his year on the island will eventually come to an end, the two of them spend endless nights wondering if they can somehow make a song go on forever.

Because Of You ✔️ by letiiciaa331

❝ I don't have time to waste thinking about a boy who will only destroy my future,❞ I say getting closer to him with every word, maybe a little too close. I feel his breath fanning my face. He licks his lip as a sneaky smirk slips onto them, his greenish-gray eyes shift between my lips and eyes, making my traitorous breath hitch. ❝ You saying you think about me, Torres? ❞ ~ Mariana Torres is the first in her family to go to college. Being the first in a Latinx family comes with more pressure and stress than usual, something Mariana is used to. She wants nothing but to make her family proud, even if it means pursuing something she's not interested in. Now heading off to UCLA on a full-ride with her best friend, she's finally getting the chance to get a strong education and become a successful doctor. But every perfect plan has bumps in the road, and this one just happens to be a beautiful one. Aiden Grey lives life like he's dying. He parties, drinks, smokes, burns through his money, and sleeps around with every girl at UCLA. He isn't attracting the ladies by being a brooding bad boy, but by being so carefree you feel your problems slip away when you're with him. Too bad Mariana can't afford for her problems to slip away. *** Warning: Book contains swearing and mature content. WARNING...

Aloha Voltron! (A Moana Voltron AU) by BlackmetalLyoko

When the home of your people is in danger, and the ocean entrusts the fate of all into your hands, there are three things that must be done. Find the Trickster God. Return the Heart. And sing like there's no tomorrow! What? It's a musical universe, cut this writer some slack.

So expect some of your favorite characters and Paladins to be classed in as some very fun characters. *wink* Side note: You ever get these moments when you realize you could do so many ships in one go that could be classed as fan service? And you could also do your own art for it when the time is giving? *whispers to the side* And finally get back on track with all these incomplete stories I never finished?... HERE IS THE (MY) ANSWER!!! WRITE ANOTHER ONE! What's one more story to the added list?! *internally screaming*

If I Take The Risk by QueenBreezie

Formerly known as 'His Saving Grace' Welcome to Western Sydney. Not the safest, not the happiest and not the best place to live. Rivalries between the innerwest and greaterwest gangs. Organised riots and brawls happening every month was something normal. Break ins, vandalism, domestic violence, racism, was expected. The pacific islanders where judged harshly, some of them even had the community fearing them. The government was corrupted, and the police had no intentions of protecting their community. So in a world like this, love was something that was ignored. Stepped on, spat at. The word was abused so many times and it got to the point where barely anyone knew what true, genuine love is. No body fell in love anymore. Everyone was looking for a good time, no one was serious. Did people fight for what they love anymore? Did anyone want to graduate school anymore? Or was life one long party for most people? So this is the story of Kaea and Treymaine. Love? Or loss? Is it worth it? To take the risk and fall entirely. ____ The first book of the 'If I ' series.

Out of my Control by LexiRein

Book 7 in the It just Happened Series. (Can be a stand alone but to better understand it read Never Say Never.) Love is supposed to be great and for awhile it was, until it wasn't. I had it all! The perfect husband, well for the most part. Everyone has their flaws but Johnny he was the best. Then I lost him and my world fell apart. How can you move on from your other half? Then there is River Fox the one person who will just not leave. Just because he made a promise to my husband doesn't mean he owes me anything. He infuriates me to no end! I just can't get him out of my mind, and it kills me! "Katrina." He never calls me by my name. It's always princess, stubborn, a pain in his ass. "Look at me." I can't because when you call my name it does things to me, I know it shouldn't! "Please, just stop!" Do. Not. Cry! I can't take the guilt anymore. "Just go. Please!" The first tears fall as the door slams shut. I'm betraying him by wanting his close friend. Even though I try to fight, I can't resist him. I hate it! I hate him, but mostly hate myself for the desire I have for the one man I shouldn't. How did everything get so out of my control?

FRAGILE (enhypen Niki ff/English version) by _nightlvr_

"Whatever you do, don't fall in love with me," she says,without any kind of emotion. "Why? Why..why??" I ask, my voice becoming more and more frustrated she stares at me..."to protect yourself...from even more pain.." ----- Niki, a 19-year-old boy, spends a lot of time with his friends and hobbies in his free time. He is the funny and cheerful one in his group and makes everyone laugh... However, since he was fifteen, he has been suffering from mental problems, and who knows about it? No one. Aliyah,she is 18 and...emotionless. That's how most people describe her. Instead of socializing with others, she prefers to read or listen to music while staring out of her window into the dark night. Her thoughts and feelings have consumed her completely, to the point where she no longer really believes in true love. Since she was 13, she has had numerous mental problems, and who knows about it?...no one. If someone confesses their love to her...she laughs in their face. None of them believe in love...yet it's what they desire most.

The Butterfly Effect by MrsDarcy___

"I want how it was before. I want it all with you in my life again... I'm asking you to stay." Miles Cobain-Smith An aloof and detached logician, he scrutinizes the simplest things through microscopic lenses. Academic validation, family expectations, and unwavering care for the few people close to him sum up his life, and he certainly doesn't have time for love... yet. Juliet Everly A hopeless romantic, she sees the world through rose-colored glasses. According to her, love is magical and the purest thing one can ever encounter. Her world revolves around her dad and friends, and she's very content in her small-town life. She finds solace in romance books, nature, music, and her quiet attachment to bygone eras and everything vintage. Their paths cross. Clashing is inevitable, but there's something more... underneath the teasing remarks, stupid jokes, and laughter, an undercurrent too perplexing to decipher. When ignoring the spark becomes too much, their lives take a whole different turn. Hopes get crushed, dreams get shattered, and hearts get broken as the unexpected hits like a whirlwind. Gentle walks in the rain, soothing ocean breezes, hushed revelations, and an idyllic small town as a tranquil backdrop - how long until the picture-perfect expectations crumble into a mess of feelings too hard to hold back? All we can say is, it will be something unforgettable. Featured on @romance @storiesundiscovered @YA

A Summer Affair (SAMPLE! NOW PUBLISHED ON AMAZON) by JeniRaeD

The best decision I ever made was when I moved to paradise nine years ago. I've met and entertained many beautiful women while living here in Hawaii, with those women changing what I first thought would be paradise and making it to be more of an erotic heaven. I love women, and I love satisfying them. But the only way they make it to my bed is if they're tourists. Why? Because there are no ties, no feelings hurt, no strings attached, and I'll never see them again-just pure innocent sex satisfying both our needs. Now I'm on an airplane, going back to the one place I always said I would never step foot in ever again. Las Vegas. All because Vegas is where my best friend wants to have his bachelor party. Just because I'm not happy to be back in my hometown doesn't mean I can't have fun, right? After all, I can still do what I've been doing in Hawaii here in Vegas as there are always tourists roaming the casinos. Before my friends and I hit the casino, I made a thousand-dollar bet with my best friend that I couldn't land a woman in my bed before we returned to Hawaii-a bet I want no part of after meeting who I did. That bet will come to haunt me after we get back home, especially when we cross paths at my best friend's wedding. I was happy to see her, but she wasn't too pleased to see me, and let's just say somewhere I screwed up because my face not only saw her fist once, but it saw it twice. She just lit the fire in me, and I never thought I'd say this, but I guess my entertaining women days are over because right now, there's only one woman who I want to chase, and that's Leilani.
