"What can I say? I'm completely like other girls."

"That's cool, but I've never met another Marigold before."

Marigold Reynolds is just a little basic, with a Starbucks latte and a rose gold-cased iPhone in either hand. Quitting her job to be a full-time online craft store owner is a dream far across the horizon, but that has never been a reason to quit the pursuit for Marigold. But when something (or someone) else on the horizon catches her eye, she might have to make time for another challenge.All Rights Reserved

Flour and Flower by JambonJames01

Anthony Finch is a 22-year-old florist with a need for control and a life built on routine. Focused, sharp-tongued, and perfectly composed on the surface, he's quietly wrestling with the emotional weight of his past: grief, shame, and a silence he's grown too used to. He's friendly with everyone and knows exactly what to say but when it comes to his own feelings, he's still figuring out how to say anything at all. Avery Madison is a 23-year-old soft-spoken baker preparing to open her first shop. Her hands are steady in the kitchen, but inside she's balancing pressure, fear of failure, and the growing need to prove herself, while trying not to get too flustered around a certain handsome stranger who keeps showing up for breakfast with just the right amount of charm. Their first meeting is simple-carrying boxes on a grey morning-but it sparks something neither of them saw coming. Through flour-dusted mornings, crocheted hats, awkward banter, and quiet moments that speak louder than words, something begins to take root. Flower and Flour is a slow-burning story about how love doesn't always arrive with fireworks. Sometimes it slips in quietly, steady and patient, and stays long enough for you to bloom. ⭐ JambonJames01© Started Writing: 18/4/24 Finished Writing: Ongoing

In Case You Missed It ✔ by MoniQuill_

Jace 'Go Away' Parker, purely standoffish with a pierced brow and cold grey eyes is packing his bags to leave and for some rare occasion, it wasn't because of his fluency in sarcasm and raw truth. Moving into a new town wasn't his choice and to his dismay, Gold Wood High is no different... Now he's counting down his freedom from the stereotypical cliques highschool can never be without. But what's worse than dumb shirt stealing jocks is the town sheriff's daughter, one massive hair-pulling irritation takes the form of alluring green eyes, pink manicure and pompoms that is Whitney 'The Brat' Fallon. It all started because of one stupid request-- something that goes beyond everything the tattoed badboy brunette is against. What happens one heroic night takes a different turn when he realizes there's more to the blonde cheerleader than what meets the eye. Could Jace finally scratch his middle name and 'Lean Closer' for a change? In Case You Missed It, sometimes you gotta trust the ripples of the water instead of paddling your own canoe to take you where you needed to be. •︎──≫•◆•≪︎──• 🐚1st Place Teen Fiction - Banana Awards 🐚1st Place Humor - Guilded Raven Awards 🐚1st Place Chicklit/Humor - The Deli Awards 🐚1st Place Funny - The Valentine's Awards 🐚Best TeenFic Cover - Banana Awards 🐚Best Title - Phosphene Awards 🐚Most Romantic Couple - Banana Awards 🐚2nd Place in Best Blurb - Glow Awards 🐚3rd Place in Best Title - Banana Awards ©All Rights Reserved 2021 | MoniQuill

You Like Me?! | ✓ by stillclo

"So, let me get this straight," I looked at him weirdly, raising my hands slightly in exclamation. "You like me?!" I asked him in disbelief. "Like or like-like?" I really can't get my head to process his words at the moment. "Is it weird that I don't." He simply replied, his voice sounded calm but serious at the same time. "And for your question, I do. I do like-like you. Like, I really like you. To the point that you're the only thing that's on my mind everyday and I can't seem to get you off it." I was literally standing there like an idiot, slowing blinking my eyes in a slow pace, still can't believe what's actually happening in front of me. ______________________________ ( Partially Edited.)

Pumpkin Patch Princess by juliecdao

A fairy godmother internship is just what Noelle needs to escape her family's pumpkin business . . . until she starts to question her own happily-ever-after. Perfect for fans of The Princess Diaries or Ella Enchanted! * * * Noelle Simpkins is sick of working for her parents. Sure, her dad runs a booming pumpkin business and her mom's the greatest shoemaker in the land. But pumps and pumpkins get OLD after a while, and she's ready to see more of the world. When she hears about a fairy godmother internship in the city, she jumps on it. The goal? Make sure royal clients get happily-ever-afters . . . all while battling goblins, curing curses, and figuring out how to use a magic wand. Not to mention shutting down a rival godmother and avoiding Kit, a distractingly cute guy who sells pie and keeps turning up. But as exciting as her new gig is, Noelle is surprised when she realizes . . . she kind of misses making shoes and growing pumpkins. Has she gotten closer to her own happily-ever-after, or farther away? And when the glass shoe's on the other foot, can she stay true to her heart?

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul by gemmalanebooks

[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...

Love And Lattes [DISCONTINUED] by begumsuaksu

"I have a question... Why do you work here? Isn't it hard to handle work and school at the same time?" I asked. He chuckled. "I accidentally chucked Wesley's PlayStation out of the window so I err... Kinda have to work for a few weeks to replace it." I laughed. "Accidentally?" "Actually, I did it to get back at him for dropping my phone into a bowl of soup, but don't tell him that," Levi whispered to me. ~ Every other day Alyssa ends up at Starbucks ordering her weekly latte. It's the same old situation every week, except this week there is a new barista at the till. A ridiculously good looking barista, may I add. Alyssa and Levi speak to each other every week and begin to get to know one another: there will be love, and there will be lattes.

A Perfect Fit by lilyvictoriawrites

[Wattys 2023 Grand Prize Winner] After an eight-hour flight sitting next to her high school nemesis Jackson Carter, fashion designer and barista Isabelle Curtis thought that would finally be the last she would see of him. But as the saying goes, famous last words. * * * Isabelle Curtis and Jackson Carter were fierce academic rivals in high school, up until Jackson moved to the UK in junior year for boarding school. Eight years later, Jackson has returned from abroad to take on the role of CEO at his late father's company. When Isabelle and Jackson meet again, there's a war of words, banter and a passionate dislike towards each other. Throw in a high school reunion, some more chaos, and a 'deal' in the mix-one that might just involve a little faking and pretending. It's all fun and games and tit for tat, almost just like in high school, until real feelings become involved...

What happens when the universe makes her bump in with the newly moved single father who also owns one of the biggest and richest companies in the country? Will Londyn Smith and his wonderful personality crack the stone cold woman? Will the brunette accept his offer? Will they manage to build a stable relationship without having a person from the past destroy their connection? Read to find out. *** "Why is there glitter in my daughter's hair and in your eyes?" Is the first thing Londyn asks me as soon as he walks in to the room. "Kat is the best nanny ever!" The curly haired child squeals while hugging me as I turn to her father with an apologetic look. "Sorry.." I nervously say, afraid that he might get mad but I surprisingly get met by his charming smile. His smile that always makes my stomach do flips. He drives me insane. *** FINISHED but STILL UNDER EDIT
