A self-proclaimed ordinary average girl meets the one larger than life person who will make her yearn for so much more.

Natalie Benton has nursed more than enough heartbreak in her twenty-one years. But she doesn't like to complain, even though her parents' marriage might be falling apart, and she's still mourning her brother, who committed suicide five years ago. On top of that, she was recently ghosted by her lover, an emotionally detached tattoo artist who ran off to California. She's ready to graduate college in a few months but not sure what her next steps will be. For now, she'll take each day as it comes, which has become her mantra as an ordinary, average girl in Albee, Pennsylvania where nothing exciting ever happens.

But fate has other plans for Natalie, when a very not ordinary-average girl enters her life. It's the larger-than-life Gem Grove, one of the most popular singers of the past decade. Gem's been hiding out in Albee while she tries her best to take each day as it comes, but her addiction to bigger fame and fortune could lead to her downfall. The public may think she's entitled and spoiled, but she's ready to prove them all wrong. She's more than just a singer who performs on demand. She wants to create art with her songs and gain the respect she's always wanted. Natalie and Gem shouldn't fit together, but they do. The ordinary-average girl and the larger-than-life diva might be destined for more, but only if they can achieve it together.

This is book one of a novella series, mostly consisting of shorter stories of 50k-100k word count. Ju Garcia hasn't ever felt the need to become entangled with another romantically, much less hop into bed with them. In fact, she's never even felt attraction in the true consistence of the word her entire life and now that she is nearly thirty-two, she has even less interest, focusing on the career she loves. However, things can't always go the way they're planned and when a comic book creator, Hayden Weller, signs up with Ju's studio, things begin to stir within herself and the call to romance may just take the helm. Hayden Weller is a geek through-and-through, wearing it like a badge of honor her entire life. She also happens to be a creator herself, working with her best friend to create a highly decorated and critically acclaimed webtoon. Still, that project is over as is their previous contract, so they begin interviewing potential companies and run into a woman with whom Hayden is immediately taken. However, Hayden has a dark past filled with regret, abuse and addiction and fears her own emotions may end everything she has worked for in chaos. Fear controls many aspects of people's lives. Some defeat it, while others internal struggle is endless, but can Ju and Hayden overcome their inner demons and rise above? Better and perhaps together...? ⚠️Trigger Warning: This novel contains elements of drug & emotional abuse and Borderline Personality Disorder. ❤ Mature/Erotic Content ⚢ Lesbian Romance/Lit 📚 Complete and undergoing editing.

Eighteen-year-old Iris Howell thought she was living her best life until those two pink lines showed up on the pregnancy test. In a flash, all her future dreams went up in smoke. Ten years later, she's now a single mom to a rambunctious little girl who has become her world. It wasn't easy having to grow up so quickly without the support of her high school sweetheart, but she's doing her best. Dating was the furthest thing on her mind, but her best friend still insisted she sign up for a dating app to see if Mr. Right Now was out there somewhere. Little did she know, one of her first matches would be Monty King, her high school boyfriend's older brother. She can't deny her attraction to him or how he makes her feel, but she knows this is a mess just waiting to happen. Montgomery King may have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but that wasn't the life he wanted to live. He never fit in with the lifestyle his upper-class parents tried to force him into and he never got along with his lazy brother who was more than happy to lazily mooch off the family dollar. He took the first chance he could to join the military and do something better with his life. His years in the military are well done and he's still avoided his family and their money-hungry ways until his company relocates to his hometown. The only good part about the move is reconnecting with Iris Howell, even if she is his brother's ex-girlfriend. Iris isn't looking for a relationship and certainly isn't trying to find herself tied down with another King brother and she has good reason not to. However, Monty is making it his new mission to show her that she was with the wrong brother before.

Are they going to be able to further their careers, get married, or have kids? Can Cambria and Mia's love for one another rise above whatever may come their way? _____________________________________________ This story is a sequel, but I have written it in a way that allows for it to stand alone. Nevertheless, I still recommend that you read 'Mia' first before reading 'Bri' to understand this book better. Either way, the decision is entirely up to you. Please note that none of the photos I've used for the characters in chapter one are mine; they belong to their rightful owners. I only used them as a means to show you how I feel they should look like. But, of course, you are free to imagine the characters as you see fit. All that matters, in the end, is to enjoy the story! =) ⚠️ Warning: ⚠️ This story contains strong language, possible trigger moments, lesbian material, and mature sexual content. Be aware that homophobic comments will not be tolerated. Read at your own risk.

After losing her job and her girlfriend, it's time for Annie Abraham to admit defeat and move back in with her parents. She has hardly been back to her tiny Montana hometown since the unforgettable summer before her senior year of college, when she agreed to babysit for Laurel Jacobs. Annie didn't expect to fall in love back then, and she never thought that after all this time she'd still be in love with the woman she walked away from when she was twenty-one. Laurel Jacobs has never gotten over Annie Abraham. It's been almost a decade since their fling and she can't move on. She has her kids to think about - at least, she tells herself that's why she hasn't been on a single date since Annie left. Her life was different back then: when they met, she was in the middle of a divorce with two young kids and no idea how the future looked. Now she owns a bookstore, her kids are growing up, and she's too busy for romance. Annie thought she would have more time to settle back into life in Deer Pines before being confronted by the love of her life, but she's not that lucky. After all this time, she's back for good and Laurel is the first person she sees, when she has just spent seventeen hours on a train and she's desperately in need of caffeine. It's the first time they've seen each other in eight years and it isn't long before all those old feelings come rushing back to the surface. They weren't buried as deep as they thought they were. A lot has changed since they last saw each other, more than either of them realize, but life hands out second chances for a reason. The first time they fell in love, the timing was wrong. Now's their chance to make it right. © Elle Carrigan 2023
