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! Please read the list before reading the book!] [Word count: +140,000 words...I write a lot, but enjoy anyway!]

Two hundred and fifty years after the world ended and the vampire's reign began, Hadley's pregnant mother Aadya, and her mother's sister, Aunt Zenobia, are Wildlings captured and brought into a Compound to reinvigorate the gene pool of genetically modified humans bred to supply the vampires with blood. They are sworn to secrecy of the outside world under threat of losing their tongues, their lives, or worse, their daughters' lives. However, Aunt Zee breaks the rules and tells curious, intrepid Hadley everything about the Wildlings, training her to survive the outside world. And when Hadley turns twenty, only weeks away from Conception Day, she becomes the first human in history to ever escape a Barn, determined to give birth to her daughter in the company of her mother's people - the only truly free humans in the world - The Wildlings. It was supposed to be a simple plan: escape the Compound, get her bearings, then use Aunt Zee's map to locate the Wildling tribes. And if Hadley ran into a vampire, Aunt Zee's one and only rule was "incapacitate and run". But what happens when Hadley meets the dangerous and devastatingly gorgeous Ruqwik and has to break the rules by forming an uneasy alliance with the vampire? Because, after twenty years, everything beyond the Compound walls has changed, and vampires are the least of her worries.

It was torturous, and before I would ever get to confess it, another came along who dared to be braver than me and fell in love with her and all that she was too, my older brother Ben.

Yeah that one. Their wedding day would mark the day I left Utah, the church and my family, the month I announced I was gay and was sent away... there was no room for gay here...and in turn no room for me. Allie wouldn't understand, my absence, or my silence...and five years would pass...painfully for us both. Allie had a child, I went to college, feelings got left buried, but thoughts were daily, and she never left my mind...not for a day, and what I didn't know was that she was in that same place...lost and waiting for me to return. And I would return... one christmas five years later... and with me every feeling and emotion resurrected. Our teens were only the beginning because the journey to Alberta was about to span through our twenties and into our thirties. A journey home. *** Willa Jameson.
