"Felix found comfort in the little cafe near his new house. People there were kind and friendly. They seemed to be stuck in some sort of haze, like the harshness of reality meant nothing to them there. They were just happy and content to be away from everything for a moment. If Felix really tried, he could slip into that haze too for a bit. He'd stop worrying about the move and all he'd left behind. But most of all, he didn't have to think about the life he now had to face, and the fact that he couldn't go on in denial forever."

A unique cast of characters all share one thing in common - they all go to the same place for coffee. This single fact is the one thing that brings an otherwise completely unalike group together.
Discover the stories of Kam, Kiara, Tallie, Wyde, Cedrick, Felix, Aileen, Drey, and Maeve through their unique and comical experiences revolving around a quaint, cozy cafe. Secrets lurk beneath the acts they put on display for others. Is it possible these nine extremely different people may have more in common with each other than they think?

Destined to be Together by lonely_lucifer31

Being a loved one isn't that difficult, is it? Some people believe it's easy. Ironically, many do not know how it feels to have people around who care for them. Some people grow up accepting the cruel world around them, forcing them to show off a tough personality and acting harsh as well. These people are often considered 'heartless' even though they might not be. While some find out reasons to be happy in every possible situation. Making new friends, ready to face challenges with a smile but not a frown and trying to understand others' problems is a small part of their personalities. Everyone in this world deserves someone with whom they can forget the rest of the world around them. It can be your family, your friends or maybe someone more than a friend... But can a cold and arrogant person ever receive any kind of affection? When a mysterious person, known by no one, starts getting attention from a transfer student, where would this lead the story? What would be the identity of this mysterious person? Trapped in a troublesome friendship, will they realize their love for each other? A simple and sweet love story of two souls, completely different from each other. Where would their destiny lead them?

Mea again by marysezoran

"No matter your problems, face them with a bright smile and a bucket of chocolate ice-cream," nana once wisely told me. At the time, I was barely twelve and thought that I could summon a unicorn if I just believed in myself. A decade later, despite my massive student loans and almost nonexistent love life, that piece of advice was all I needed to maintain good mental health and earn myself some lovely padded hips. Little did I know that a horrific monster was lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike and scare the living daylights out of my naïve and helpless self. 'There she goes again with the metaphors and literary witchcraft...' Did you really have to make an entrance right now, conscience? I was about to get to the exciting part. As I was saying, that hideous monster popped out of nowhere and there was no ice-cream bucket big enough to vanquish it. Hence, I only reacted the way an average person such as myself would. 'You gathered your forces and made it creep back into the shadows? It realized that you were too nice and boring to be messed with? Or did Prince Charming arrive, on his white horse of course, and saved little helpless you?' Nope, not exactly and definitely not. I ran away and left everything and everyone I ever cared about behind. 'Remind me again why we're having an emotional trip down memory lane?' Because it's about time I went back and fixed everything. - 🏆 1st place winner in The Duck Awards (Romance Category) - 🏆 1st place winner in The Chaos Awards 8 (Humor Category) - 🏆 2nd place winner in THE ROMANCE READS CONTESTS (Lovers Category) - 🏆 2nd place winner in The Sparkle and Shine Awards 2K19 (Romcom Category) - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Romance - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Cupid - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's NA - ✨ Featured on Wattpad's Multicultural -

"And you're stupid, ignorant, a- and, a hooligan!" I yell back, with a stutter hidden in my voice. Who does he think he is? I don't need him! "And you're aggressive, have bad communication skills and suck at expressing yourself! When are you gonna learn that you can't rely on your smarts, books and determination to get you through life." Sighing, he rubbed the back of his curly haired head. I? I tried to keep myself from kicking him into another country, and not letting him see my bothersome, unnecessary tears. ☕︎ Welcome to Café la Partenariat.

Heart Buffs, Coffees & Cats by afluffycatandrabbit

'You and I, with our cats and coffee.' ____ Ocean's semester was supposed to be simple: study, graduate, keep her head down. Instead, she's stuck sharing a house with four guys she barely knows. Three are easygoing, but Ayden Xerlott? Infuriatingly handsome, maddeningly aloof, and constantly stealing the last cup of her peace-and her coffee. What begins as quiet frustration soon shifts. Lazy mornings blur into late-night arguments, stolen glances, and moments she can't ignore. The boys are hiding something-secrets tucked behind casual smiles and easy banter. But what surprises Ocean most isn't their mystery. It's how much she's beginning to care. Between shared silences, cozy corners, and the unspoken comfort of cats and caffeine, Ocean finds herself discovering something more-something that feels a lot like home. And when Ayden's walls start to crack, she realizes he's less a pain in her side and more a quiet promise she didn't know she was waiting for. ____ 'Who knew the best part of my day would always be you?'

Starting With You by AngieMahlke

Romance trope: best friends to lovers. "You're supposed to be my best friend, but all I can think about is kissing you again." TEDDY: I somehow got stuck in the unfortunate "one of the guys" category. It was on accident, naturally falling into this role since my childhood best friend was a boy. The crush on my best friend was also an accident. He's always seen me as one of the guys. That is, until the one drunken night he didn't. The one that nearly ruined everything a decade ago. JENSEN: It was much easier when I didn't notice how hot my best friend is. It would be even better if the rest of the jackoffs in our small town would stop noticing too. I can still remember all the details from our night together years ago. The night we never talk about, yet it's still so fresh in my mind. But will a secret scar from a past relationship ruin everything? [This is BOOK ONE of the WITH YOU series, a small town romance series set in Minnesota about the lives of the dysfunctional, blended Anderson family - with an interwoven mystery built into the background that spans the entirety of the series.] **Title formerly The Rest of Forever**
