This is a stand alone book but also can be read after The Curse Of Fantasy. (Also a cute book if I do say so myself!) 
These are the same characters and sort of a continuation of the first book but this story is about Manny and Chuck, Simon's friends. I had no intention of writing this book but it sort of happened.
	Manny quickly became one of my favorite characters who didn't get enough page time and I wanted to see what would happen if I kept writing about him. I wanted to watch him grow with Chuck. This story has a lot of fluff. Just a warning. What else could they have to do with their day! Wink!

Monsters by AmouraLucinda
35 parts Complete Mature
They're falling in love with their best friends, but past trauma and current taboos have a way of making everything more complicated. Will they be able to heal from their pasts? Or will they always see themselves as monsters? This story can be read as a standalone, but it is the sequel to both Light in the Darkness and Hashbrown and Crow. *There will be darker themes in this story and sexual content. The main characters all suffered abuse and neglect in some form, and they will reference it throughout the story in one way or another. People cope with trauma differently, and I hope that I respectfully represent that while still telling a story that is romantic fiction. --
Inspire: Book One (bxb) ✔️ by PsychoSunbaenim
27 parts Complete Mature
Book One of Five in the New Beginnings Series. **You do NOT have to read Inhale, Exhale, & Breathe to enjoy these stories** #1 in bxb tag: 09/21/2024 #4 in friendstolovers tag: 9/21/2024 CYRUS PIERCE: I'm content in my almost soundless world. I prefer to live through the romance stories I weave and post online. Hardly anyone reads my books, even if they're free, but I do have one fan, and he's supported me since I started writing two years ago. Except, my writing started to take a depressing dive when I realized that you simply couldn't prevent nor protect your heart from falling for someone. For him. For the one who had no interest in me. When I fell in love with him, I thought we had a chance. It was an accident. Turned out, I couldn't be more wrong. He doesn't want me, and I wasn't supposed to have him. It didn't matter if he showed up in the bookstore every day, talking to everyone else except me. Nor did it matter at all because he didn't know sign language. He couldn't learn. We couldn't communicate. But after I go on a date and it ends in putrid disaster, he makes his appearance known, and he's angry. Then he's doing things for me that confuse me. My stories are filling up with pages of content, dreams that I want to come true, and my mystery commenter encourages me to continue-to reach my happiness. To take what I want. But the activities planned start sparking familiarity-like I lived it before, or maybe dreamed it. Or maybe, just maybe, I'd written it before? My mind is spiraling, but I can't stop myself from getting closer and closer to him. I'm not supposed to have him, but my heart craves him. Sage Monroe, I'm in love with you, and I'm scared now because I have a feeling that you've been communicating with me in more ways than one.
Snowbound by greyxry

{COMPLETE BxB} Cole Parker Blane. He's known for being stuck up and short-tempered and an emotional wreck, and if you asked him he'd probably agree with you. But when certain circumstances land him Snowbound with his so-called "enemy" Leroy Katz, it leaves the two isolated from the outside world and forced to indulge in one of their own. One that includes a trip to the past and uncovers a lot of what led their relationship to this point, and possibly move it forward. ~ ~ ~ This is a story I wrote for a competition with the prompt. "Focus on one chapter of a much more complicated and longer story" so it's pretty short, but I really enjoyed trying a new writing style and it was actually quite good for my skills. I hope you all enjoy this story and love the characters. as much as I do.

Yore isn't expecting to find an injured Companion of all things on his way back home, and he's immediately suspicious.
