Luísa has always been a dreamer, and when she got a new job, she felt she was about to finally accomplish one of them. By landing a position as a screenwriter for a new period TV show portraying the Montenegro's household, a rich and prominent Brazilian family from Rio Grande do Sul, she moves to Santa Maria with the writer's team in pursue of a real immersion in the verdant rural area of the pampas' gaucho.

Dealing with her anxiety disorder, she'd have to adapt to a new city, a new job and all the challenges that would come with these changes. But she just didn't consider one tiny thing. Her talent for disaster. In one of her clumsy forays into one of the farm's rooms, she found old poems hidden beneath the floor and decided to investigate who was this mysterious writer.

With the help of Júlia, one of the grumpy owners of the farm she's been working, she'd have to deal with not only her challenge as an inexperience writer in the pursuit of her dreams, but also overcome her suffocating fears, battling against the most ruthless one: the fear of falling in love.

An LGBT+ story, filled with poetry and with something the world needs a little bit more: love!

Heartsong for Dr. Montgomery (Book 1 Gavine) by CVanderbutch
29 parts Complete Mature
What started as a no-strings-attached arrangement between Princess Alexa, the next in line for the British crown, and Gavine, an American Olympian with dreams of medical school, quickly spiraled into something neither of them anticipated. Their casual connection deepened, their emotions caught them off guard, and before long, they realized they were falling for each other--hard. It may sound like a cliché, but the saying about timing is painfully true. Even when you find the right person, the timing doesn't always cooperate. And when your relationship involves the entire British Commonwealth as an uninvited third party, it can be more than a little daunting. But love is never simple. As Alexa grapples with the weight of royal expectations and duty, and Gavine tries to balance her burgeoning career, relentless paparazzi, and meddling friends, their journey becomes one of resilience, self-discovery, and navigating a world determined to keep them apart. This is the first installment in the "Sapphic Starwood Love Series," a sweeping tale of love, ambition, and the courage it takes to rewrite the rules. *** Authors Note: This is an adult novel with sexual female-on-female content.

Friendless and timid, Guinevere is stuck in her socially anxious shadow, content to let her sister lead and live a sheltered life. Without Natalie pushing her to break out of her comfort zone, she'd be trapped in fear. The world is scary, even her own family conflicts terrify her; she needs Natalie's support. But what happens when Natalie, her big sister, her mentor and only real friend, suddenly can't be there for every moment of her life? Lola, raised to be a hardworking farmer, when all she wants is a bit of agency over her life, the freedom to do what she wants. And yet, she is perfectly willing to let Natalie handle conversations for her. For as much as she wants to be free, she wouldn't know what to do with herself, get meticulously caught up in planning the details and never end up doing anything. And Natalie, who has no personal desires, simply living in moments and finding the best in whatever is going on. Freely engaging with her friends and helping them, as she lacks her own internal drive, the self awareness to know what she wants. After a long childhood struggle with her self esteem and valuing herself, that has become what she "needs," her coping strategy with rough situations. Being complacent with what happens to her and simply accepting, with no real goals of her own, no idea that her friends are just as directionless as she is. When health complications arise for her, and her friend group is falling apart around her as she can't guide them, she'll have to ask the essential questions that she can't simply answer in a quick sentence. The questions that she has long dismissed as unimportant. Is this what she truly wants, to be solely fulfilled by everyone else depending on her for support? And where does she draw the line? This story touches on potentially triggering content, including the use of slurs, toxic family relationships, anxiety, anger, and death. Any real people, brands or places are only used to further realize the environment.

The river by River5043
1 part Ongoing Mature
Nova is nineteen, in love, and quietly unraveling. On the outside, she's starting a new chapter of her life: college, independence, and a small apartment she shares with Hazel - the girl who makes her feel seen, safe, and loved. But inside, Nova's mind is a violent tide. Manic highs swallow her in electric energy she can't control. Psychotic breaks pull her into shadowed corners of reality. And the constant, crushing weight of mental illness threatens to drag her under before she ever gets the chance to breathe. Haunted by memories she can't outrun and emotions she can't always trust, Nova tries to keep her footing in a world that often feels like it's moving without her. Therapy sessions chip at the walls she's built. Creative sparks give her brief moments of clarity and purpose. Hazel's gentle steadiness becomes an anchor she wants to hold onto - even when she fears she's too broken to deserve it. But recovery is not linear, and the currents of Nova's mind are unpredictable. Some days she feels unstoppable, full of light and possibility. Other days she sinks so deep she can barely remember the surface exists. As school pressures build, old wounds reopen, and the past begins to seep into the present, Nova must confront the truth she's been avoiding: healing is messy, survival is brutal, and loving someone while fighting your own mind is its own kind of battle. Raw, intimate, and profoundly emotional, The River is a modern coming-of-age story about navigating mental illness, queer love, trauma, and the quiet bravery it takes to keep choosing life - even on the days when it feels impossible. Through lyrical prose and unflinching honesty, this novel invites readers into the aching beauty of Nova's journey as she learns that even when the water rises, there is still strength in reaching for the shore.
