Juliette Smith is aware that everything she does is on borrowed time. Her popularity, her relationship with her father, with her friends... all of it is on borrowed time.  Her existence as she knows it is so fragile.
With the revelation of one secret, all of it could go up in flames, but there's never been any reason for her to disclose it, and there has been every reason for her to hide it; it protects her image.
Esme Panchak is, by definition, a poison to her image.  She is everything that Juliette isn't. She's undermotivated, crass, and unapologetically her own person.  She's everything that Juliette has trained herself to loathe, and everything she has successfully avoided for three years... but she's enchanting, enticing.  Whenever they're together, she can feel her grip slipping bit by bit.
So, when Juliette ends up stuck with Esme as her lab partner, she realizes just how quickly the secrets she's trying to outrun can catch up with her.All Rights Reserved

What he doesn't know | Billie Eilish by mommyb1ll1e

Juliette Smith has always been the girl with the big heart. The one who puts others first, the one her brother swore to protect at all costs. Living under Jonathan's roof in LA was supposed to be temporary, just until she found her footing again. But then Billie Eilish walked into their world. What starts as harmless, the superstar hanging around her brother's studio, late-night conversations in their kitchen, quickly turns into something dangerous. Something neither of them can afford to feel. Because Billie is Jonathan's best friend. And Juliette? She's the one person Jonathan would never let her be with. Loving her means lying to him. Wanting her means risking everything. But some things are impossible to hide.

Stung By You by SBFors

I just close my eyes. Feeling him. Smelling him. Just existing close to him. My fingers clutch at his shirt, like it's the only thing keeping me from doing something reckless. Something completely, irrevocably stupid. Like kissing my son's best friend. And it feels so wrong. Oh God. So damn wrong. But then- His thumb shifts against my skin. A slow, lazy stroke. And suddenly, it feels so right. SO DAMN RIGHT. I breathe in too sharply. Mistake. He notices. Of course, he notices. His grip on my hips tightens. "You always this tense?" I force out a breath. "You always this annoying?" Leo laughs under his breath. "Only when I'm right." I tilt my head, and his eyes are already waiting for me-dark, unreadable, impossibly close. His fingers brush just above my waist. Barely there, but enough. Enough to make me hyper-aware of how easy it'd be to- "You wear this every night, don't you?" It takes me half a second to register what he means. The hoodie. His hoodie. *** 💔 She never expected to fall for him. 🔥 He never stopped waiting for her. 🏡 But some love stories don't follow the rules. Jenny Thompson moved to start fresh. A new neighborhood, a new home, a new beginning. What she didn't expect? Leo Mitchell. Her son's best friend. Fifteen years younger. And looking at her like she's something he's never stopped wanting. She tells herself it's nothing. She tells herself it can't happen. But then- 💬 "I don't know how to stop wanting this." 🔥 "Then don't." 📖 A slow-burn, emotional age-gap romance about love, healing, and the risk of wanting more. ** Taboo. Age gap. Off-limits tension. A love that shouldn't exist-but try stopping it.**

One Night Only by Smuttttygirl

*Lesbian Smut A few years back, Courtney and Emilia shared a brief connection in an airport. Cancelled flights turned into a night that felt like it belonged in another life. It was just one night, and then Emilia was gone. No last name, no number, just the memory of her that Courtney could never forget. When they run into each other again, the woman that she remembers isn't the same. She's quieter, guarded, and clearly hiding something. Reconnecting should feel like fate, but instead, it feels like a risk. As Courtney pushes for answers, and Emilia tries to protect the fragile life she's built, the past begins to creep closer. The spark between them is still there, but so are the secrets. The closer that they get, the more Courtney begins to wonder: did she ever really know her at all?

And after seeing each other for the first time in fifteen years, Parker and Astrid use this as an opportunity to catch up more from their previous conversation at Cafe Royale.

But things take an interesting turn when Parker and some friends they've made through unexpected reunions invite Astrid out to a night of fun at Bronze Brew. Though Astrid seems hesitant by the invitation and the guest list, she decides to try her best to be there to spend more time with Parker before they leave her. Again. However, things may not go as planned when Astrid finds herself working through old feelings and caring about things in Parker's life that she worries may just not be any of her business. Not anymore. And after a fun night gone wrong, she accidentally goes too far to defend them. Especially since it seems like they don't want her help in that department.
