I have a lot of secrets. 

Trying out for my new school's football team disguised as a boy is only the beginning. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm developing a disturbing crush on a teammate. 

But that's not my worst secret. 

Nobody here knows I have a twin brother named Pax. Or that he died last year. And that I might be delusional because I see him and hear him, everywhere. 

Or maybe it's the guilt that haunts me. Because I know deep down that my father is the one who killed him. And keeping that secret somehow makes me complicit. 

But my biggest secret of all is that I'm afraid that I'll never be able to forgive my dad for Pax's death. 

Until I can put that ghost to rest, my brother's spirit will be forever lost in the liminal space between this world and the next. And I am lost in this world without him.All Rights Reserved

Queen Geek by bobatonic

My name is Crystal. I always dreamed of escaping this small little town (also known as Enchantment) in New Mexico (and yea, that is in the USA) I mean, seriously. I'm going to the high school that everyone in my family has gone to. It's so repetitive. My life I mean. Get up. Go to school. Cheer. Homework. Bed. See how I actually said homework? Yea, I thought so. That is why I'm a geek. But a popular one at that. Yes, I am head cheerleader, and no I'm not Snotty McSnottypants. I'm actually really nice. ********** His name is Chase. (And btw, I absolutely despise him!) He does anything anytime and anywhere, and he is kinda the quarterback. Ya. Now. We kinda got teamed up for a project, and I seriously wished I was dead. I am probably the only girl in the town who can't stand him. He should go die in a pit. But I have to work with him, or I will fail. So, I guess I'm gonna have to live with it (or at least pretend to) before he drives me insane, wait. He already did.

Our Flor by Cely-124

"I loved you like there was no tomorrow yet you left like yesterday didn't mean a thing" All my life I wished for was a family .A happy home to come to I've had it but it all came crumbling down when my mom took me from my only happiness and she would be the reason the world showed it's dark side at a young age. Sneak Peek: "Wow" "she's a goddess" "who is that" "she is a beauty" "what an attention seeker" I walk down the ball smiling softly at all the guests.I walk behind my brothers and papa while Lucas is beside me.I don't miss the lust from men or the jealous glares women are giving me.But what surprises me the most is I see a face I never thought I would see ever again.... Under editing 👋 READ MY BOOK TO FIND OUT July 15😊 Sequel will be out in a while😘

Their Treasure by aficchi

Alessandra had always been in the dark about her family. Her mother made sure of it. She never told her anything about her father, her mysterious job, or the fact that she had six brothers. Six mysterious, wealthy, and dangerous brothers. One day, they came to her life, trying to take her home. But an unforeseen tragedy happened, causing her to be far from their reach. She was left with a man who claimed to be her uncle that wanted to take her in. But unfortunately, he is not a 'family' he claimed himself to be. So, she has to survive. Until fate brought her to meet them again. **The following story contains things which some readers may find distressing. Such as curse words, as well as violence / abuse and suicide (I'd put TW for this one) in future chapters Start: July 12, 2020

TAINTED (book II) by oopsydaisy95

Five siblings, catapulted into chaos. Striving hard to create a grounded foundation amidst a cruel world, hoping that building walls will protect them against the hungry hands trying to tear them into pieces. They only ever wanted to love and be loved but life carved its marks into their hearts. Poisoned people and a series of misfortunes left their souls tainted. 🌼 🌼 🌼 ❗❗❗ This book is a PREQUEL which means that the story takes place several years before the first book, 'FADED'. This work is a part of a backstory that focuses on the events that occurred before the original narrative. It is not necessarily required that you read FADED to understand this one, but I do strongly recommend it to get a better understanding of the characters and setting. 🌼 🌼 🌼 ⚠️ Trigger Warning! ⚠️ This is not some fairytale about falling in love and living happily ever after. This story is a reflection of reality, it's about real characters facing real hardships and struggles in life. RATED M (Please read the tags for more info about the story. No cliches, I promise.) 🌼 🌼 🌼 Book published June 2019. Book cover created with Canva. Disclaimer: I do not own any of the photos used in this story.

He's my brother's best friend, I've known him my whole life. Why do I feel like this?

Perish by nina_louelle

They were split apart as children. Reunited by force. Bound by secrets no one dares to name. At seven, Elisha was dropped into the foster care system, cold beds, colder hands, cut off from her twin sister and older brothers without explanation. Aurora stayed behind, raised by a mother who sold her body and a stepfather who promised to come back and never did. Eight years pass. The brothers return, dragging both girls into a home that barely feels like theirs. But this isn't a reunion, it's a collision. Elisha hides her trauma behind silence and sharpened edges, a hidden fire in her. Aurora masks hers with perfection, hunger, and a constant need to be chosen. Neither of them talks about the past. Neither of them knows how. Love simmers in forbidden places. Truths unravel in dangerous ways. And while the family tries to rebuild, they do so blindly, each of them hiding pieces of the story that might save the others, or destroy them. This isn't about healing. It's about surviving what no one else sees and what happens when survival isn't enough. Until everyone perishes. *Includes a good amount of smut. (MAJOR PLOT TWISTS) *************************************************** * MAJOR TRIGGER WARNING. * Rape.Abuse.Suicide.Death.Violence.Psychotic. Killing. Obsession. Deranged thoughts. * There will not be any warnings before triggers appear in the book. You have been warned.
