LUNE ASTILLO has an average life that others might rightfully call 'boring'. But she doesn't mind the mundane cycle after a lifetime of danger with her biological parents. Her adoptive parents provide her with a sense of stability she didn't know was missing. Yet they misread her behaviors of trying to keep the harmony and security as indifference. And when her friend, Nailani, tricks her into staying out late - that becomes the last straw for the household with only one solution: a summer therapy program. And that's when all her 'stability' comes crashing down.

Hearts Don't Break Forever by luvrkate
58 parts Complete
Alana Riviere grew up fast, and not by choice. Born to teen parents who somehow made it work, she spent her early years in the buzz of New York City, surrounded by ambition, love, and a little bit of chaos. Her mom was a whirlwind of creativity; her dad, the steady rock. Life felt golden-until it didn't. At 14, she lost her older brother, the one who always had her back. Two years later, her younger brother-sweet, shy, and only nine-tried to take his own life after relentless bullying. Then, just when Alana thought things couldn't get worse, her mom cheated, the family split apart, and everything she knew fell apart. Fast forward to 21, Alana's living in LA, modeling for top brands, sipping overpriced matcha, and decorating her apartment with vintage posters and candles she'll never light. She's finally out of a toxic relationship that nearly broke her, and she's found a friend group that feels like the family she lost. Her mom is a stranger now, remarried with two stepdaughters back in New York. But her dad? He's still her favorite person, living in Cape Cod with his kind, considerate fiancée and her now 16-year-old brother, who's doing a lot better. Alana's got her independence, her career, and a hard-earned sense of peace. But when old wounds start to reopen and her friendships are tested, she begins to wonder: is she really as healed as she thinks? Can this new life actually stick? And somewhere in all of this-between heartbreak and healing-is there still a chance for real love?

❝People like you don't get happy endings, not after that.❞ **** Childhood best friends Étienne LeRoy and Louella Rey were once inseparable-two halves of a perfect whole. Where Étienne was steady, Lou was wild, filling every moment with laughter and light. But that was before. Before Lou disappeared. At twenty-two, Louella has become a ghost of her former self, retreating into a world of silence and secrets after deferring her college dreams. She's mastered the art of blending into the background, hiding the pain she carries like a bruise that never fades. When Étienne returns home after a year abroad, he barely recognizes the girl he used to know. Lou's spark is gone, replaced by hollow eyes and a fragile shell of who she used to be. Haunted by the change and unwilling to give up on her, Étienne sets out to uncover the truth behind her withdrawal. But some truths are better left buried. There's something she's not telling him, something dark-something that involves the one person Étienne trusts most in the world. The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes, until Étienne is forced to confront a devastating question: How well do you really know the people you love? **There are serious themes discussed in this book. Please do NOT read if you might be triggered. Your mental health comes first before any stupid book.** Part I is complete. Part II is ongoing.

Bow-Legged by MalloryHayes1999
17 parts Ongoing Mature
Shall we do an experiment? Hear me out: an enemies-to-lovers where love is complicated but never toxic. Where the female lead knows what she wants and takes it. Where the male lead doesn't growl, rage or slam her into walls. A journey with all the angst, secrets, spice and heartbreak of dark romance without the abuse. Are you ready? ******************************************** It's 1984, Queen on the radio and rage in the streets. Moira Bourne, stretched thin between her nanny job, family drama and university classes, fights for the recognition she deserves. Evander Ward, fresh from a gap year in Europe and eager to prove himself, is ready for redemption. Two people whose paths were never meant to cross. When they do, the collision blows their life to smithereens. ******************************************** "Pass the tea, will you?". It came over me - it being it all, the shame, the anger, the sense of injustice and the nine hours I hadn't slept the night before. Those, maybe, more than anything else, because I reached for said tea and, possessed by that mighty cocktail of resentment, spat in it. I did so making sure he could see it, he could hear it. Then I passed it over to him and waited. His smile, at this point, had turned overjoyed, putting the previous ones to shame, revealing their graft. He had received the answer he was hoping for. He took the cup and chugged it down. Looked me straight in the eye and drunk it all. ******************************************** Fair warning: mentions of racism, ED, assault, sexism, and classism ahead. You know where your limits lie. If you find yourself growing uncomfortable with the content, stop reading. Feel free to reach out in the comment section or via private chat. ******************************************** Updates every Tuesday and Friday.
