In 1874, in the quaint coastal town of Provincetown, Massachusetts, the ocean's waves echo with tales of lost love. Lizzy Darby, a resilient young woman with a heart marked by past sorrows, seeks refuge in the familiarity of her parents' general store. Scarred by the loss of her first love to the unpredictable sea, Lizzy strives to find solace in the routine of her daily life.

Joana Maria Pascoal is a spirited immigrant from the Azores Islands. In her quest for a brighter future for her family, Joana adopts the guise of a man to secure a lucrative position as the town's lighthouse keeper. As Lizzy and Joana's lives become intertwined, an undeniable connection forms, one that transcends the boundaries imposed by their society.

Haunted by the wreckage of her past romance, Lizzy grapples with the fear of opening her heart again. Joana, trapped by a disguise that shields her from prejudice but endangers her livelihood, battles the urge to succumb to a forbidden love. Her dual identity hangs in the balance, a secret that, if exposed, could shatter the financial support crucial for her family's survival.

Clandestine meetings, stolen moments, and the heart's yearnings collide with the harsh realities of a world bound by tradition and familial expectations. Will the secrets that Lizzy and Joana harbor tear them apart, or can their burgeoning relationship overcome the circumstances that threaten a promising new love?All Rights Reserved

How to Fall... Without Trying To (GirlxGIRL) by QueenNiccy

Being gay is hard. Like really hard. Especially for a socially awkward introvert like Queen, who grew up single for fear of being out there. When Queen's friends make her a dating app profile, it all starts to change for her. She meets a few people that interest her and give her a little light of hope for her dating life. Lana is a high strong girl, with a dark past that she'd rather forget, who knows what she wants and knows how to get it, but when she meets Queen? That all changes. She starts to doubt who she is, a straight female that wants to marry a nice guy and live in a white picket fence home one day. Lana was only looking for friends on the dating app, but has she found more than that? This book has multiple characters in it with different points of views. It's not based off the two characters alone, but more on a group of people surrounding their lives. This book contains a lot of sexual content, strong language, and some mature content such as abuse. Read at your own discretion, I make no apologies ;)

English Version: Dandelions in the Wind by AeonGray

Dionne has always had a simple rule: no strings, no attachments, no exceptions. She dates for fun, never for keeps. Commitment? Absolutely not. Love? A fairy tale for fools. Handsome? Rich? It doesn't matter, she dates, she moves on, and she never looks back. Love is a game, and Dionne refuses to lose herself in it. But her carefree world is turned upside down when she meets Charlotte Del Pierro, the fiercely protective sister of Marcus, one of Dionne's many flings. Charlotte doesn't dislike her; she outright loathes her. To Charlotte, Dionne is nothing more than a gold-digging heartbreaker out to ruin her brother's life. Dionne has no patience for Charlotte's holier-than-thou attitude, and Charlotte has no time for Dionne's reckless charm. They clash at every turn, cutting words, icy glares, and walls built too high to climb. Yet, against all odds, an undeniable tension begins to simmer between them, blurring the line between hate and something far more dangerous. Charlotte, a hopeless romantic with no patience for Dionne's carefree ways, has no interest in giving her a chance. And Dionne? She wouldn't dream of getting involved with someone so uptight. And neither of them has any idea how to handle the fire they've ignited. Can love grow between two women who seem destined to destroy each other? Or will their differences burn them both? How can two women so utterly wrong for each other discover a love neither of them believes in?
