Saving Grace
In Northvale, Vermont, appearances are everything-and silence is safer than truth. Riley swore she'd never go back. After Grace ghosted her the week she left, after the countless moments under the train bridge where Riley told her best friend, Grace, that she loved her, and Grace said nothing. She moved weeks later and never heard from Grace again. Northvale became a place Riley only carried in memory-a place that hurt. Years later, Riley is building a life far from it all in Chicago. But when something deep and unnamed pulls her back, she finds herself standing once again in the town that made her feel small. And standing face-to-face with Grace Whitmore's parents-who, with haunting familiarity, invite her to stay in Grace's house. The place where she practically grew up. Grace has spent the last seven years trying to forget. Forget how she froze. Forget how she let Riley leave. Forget who she really was before the expectations of her family, her church, and her town hardened into something unrecognizable. Riley's return threatens all of it. As the two women are forced to navigate a shared home, buried feelings resurface-and so do the forces that drove them apart. In a town that still watches their every move, Riley and Grace must decide what's more dangerous: pretending to be something they're not, or choosing each other and facing the consequences. ⸻ ⚠️THIS BOOK IS STILL IN THE MAKING AND MANY EDITS ARE TO COME⚠️Complete

I won't give him the satisfaction that I'm enjoying this. 'Feisty, huh?' he taunted, before his fingers slipped to my folds.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart.
