2023 Watty Winner! 🖤🤍💜❤️ Happy endings aren't one-size-fits-all. It's the first day of senior year and Dot just heard the most perfect piece of news: Joshua Jameson, the guy she's madly in love with, is single. While Dot's fantasy life with Joshua has been building with intensity since the two of them swam naked together the summer before eighth grade, she's been denied the 'real deal' for years, thanks to new girl Ali swooping in, stealing her dream lover, and keeping him captive for an eternity. Dot finally has a chance to make something happen, but her friend group's constant demand for her amateur therapist skills, Joshua's angsty post breakup healing process, and her own lack of romantic game in the 'real world', is making that nearly impossible. So, when Bud shows up, with his special brand of social awkwardness and sexual ambiguity, Dot discovers she likes being distracted by the quirky guy who isn't projecting sex fantasies in her brain 24/7 or asking her to solve all his problems. Bud vows to help Dot get the guy she's always wanted, but the two soon find their budding friendship blossoming into something more. And just as Dot starts to lose herself in funny love with Bud, he takes a big step toward understanding his own romantic identity, leaving Dot to wonder where she fits in a love story that leaves out a key ingredient in her recipe for a happy ending: Sex. Brimming with heart, humor, and a hefty dash of heat, "See Dot Smile" is a scintillatingly sweet story about a tight-knit group of teens navigating their last year of high school together, and what happens when one girl's quest for love and sexual conquest takes an unexpected turn into uncharted romantic territory. Content Notes: This story contains profanity and sexual situations.

Love can feel empowering. Love can be deadly. It can be the greatest thing to ever happen. It can be the biggest mistake that can't be reversed. It can feel like a dream come true. It can feel like a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Love changes people in many ways, from mild to severe, whether it's beneficial or detrimental in anybody's life, no matter if you're lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, or a person who just loves people without a label. How does love change you? ******* It's like your basic high school love story, except it's with adults in their early-mid 20s, and they're either still in college or have graduated from college and have jobs. It's a modern slice of life narrative novel about lesbians trying to find true love or wanting to get back into the love game. Five of these lovely characters share their own little tales of how love changes them first go, or their first time in forever! Their perspectives on love as it takes effect either get sensual, dramatic, or to the extent of a slow burn, as they also deal with life's obstacles along the way and share a part in each other's stories. There are ups and downs as their own stories go along, and it all gets more suspenseful towards the end where problems unfortunately arise. Will things get better or worse from here for these lovestruck lesbians as the story goes on? [Content/Trigger Warnings- the main warnings are scenes of sexual activity, and suicidal talk/attempt, along with mentions of said attempt. Everything else is listed inside the book!

✬ 𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝔻𝕒𝕣𝕜 & 𝕃𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕊𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕤 ✬ There is a crucial moment in one's life that determines the outcome of everything; well, as books and movies would have you believe. But Monica McCaslin didn't think she would ever be one of those people, would ever have one of those moments. Brought up in a small suburb, with everything she could ever ask for, there wasn't much left for her to want. Monica's ordinary life was to go as such- follow her high school sweetheart to college, graduate, get married, have two kids; the cookie cutter life. White picket fence included. What she did not expect was to meet a dark-haired stranger sitting all alone on a park bench, at that very same school she was to attend with said future husband. After a brief conversation, just a handful of words between them, Monica decides to go on a cross-country road trip with him; putting her faith and future in the hands of a stranger. Thinking she'd soon regret her decision and the life she left behind, she realizes she doesn't at all. Free of expectation and a future that she thought was set in stone, she begins to find the woman she was truly meant to be. State by state, with each border they cross, Monica liberates her true self. 𝔹𝕠𝕠𝕜 ➃ 𝕠𝕗 ➃ - ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕥𝕖 - ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ This is a work of fiction.
