Emophilia: a tendency to fall in love too quickly
Falling in love is something that has always been hard for Jesse. You could even say he has never been in love. Always whisked away by the wind he can never stay in one place at one time for too long, his fear of commitment always leaves the same result, her saying she's in love, and Jesse leaving.
Her entire life, Laura always fell in love too quickly. After the one she loved most left her with more scars than she can bear to carry, she's completely closed herself off, now becoming the one who leaves first, instead of being the girl who always stayed.
When Jesse and Laura cross paths working together on a ranch, Jesse puts on his charming ways, infatuated by Laura's beauty, but itching to leave her longing for him. What he doesn't expect is for her to leave him first, and play him at his own game. Making it impossible for Jesse to get her out of his head, making her the reason he wants to stay. The roles are quickly reversed as Jesse begins to fall first, Laura's coldness inviting him to stay. Jesse and Laura are soon caught up in a passionate romance, Laura in denial of her feelings toward Jesse, but also unable to deny her habits of running away. That all changes when the pair give themselves over to one another, and a small act results in an ocean of grief.
As the pair navigate a new world marred by loss, their crossed paths soon become a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the capacity to find beauty amidst the ashes.

*EDITORS' CHOICE 2021*After falling for her senior year teacher, Louise learns a harsh lesson on what adulthood isn't. Louise has some trauma to unpack. Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."Complete

Love with strings detached
I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear.
