CountryCore Series: Her Lady of the Lake (WLW)
From birth, Trinity saw the world differently than her peers. Not that she knew much of her peers in her childhood as she was home-schooled. However, that's all in the past. She has her own business, works hard and all-in-all, she's happy. For the most part, that is. As long as she still has her seclusion for which she has worked hard and values above all else, then she will be fine. If people would just stay away... Leah has been blind her entire life but never let it hold her back as she embraced it with open arms. She hasn't ever known any differently and life is great. Or at least, it could be with these new changes. Moving to a new town, Leah is excited to begin a new life, but her family isn't exactly shy about their protectiveness of her. If only she could be somewhere, anywhere where people would treat her just as they would anyone else. As their paths cross, Leah and Trinity's lives are forever changed, some changes for the better and others still up for debate. People can sometimes surprise us in the most exhilarating of ways, however, and they are just about to find out exactly why.

Break Away (wlw)
When Amelia books a last-minute flight to the tropical island of Cacuna, it's meant to be a bold act of spontaneity: a rebellion against the dull reputation she's tired of wearing. But the sunny beaches and vibrant streets of Cacuna offer her more than just an escape from her life in England. As Amelia immerses herself in island life, she begins to peel back the layers of who she thought she was and who she might still become. Between unexpected romance, new friendships, taking risks and the freedom that comes with being far from home, she starts to ask herself the questions she's spent years avoiding: What do I truly want from life? Whose expectations am I really living by? Every day, Amelia steps closer to becoming a version of herself she never thought possible. Yet as her holiday draws to an end, she must face the hardest choice of all: whether to return to the life she knew or to carry her newfound courage and identity into the future. Join Amelia on her journey of self-discovery, love and the empowering magic of taking control of your own life. - Winner Pride Awards (2026)Complete

Her
Phoenix LeFlore: She is alive. Her brother is dead. People are moving forward. She is standing still. He was everything. Now she has nothing. Aza Ainsworth: She is a soft girl who acts tough. She is a warm girl who was treated coldly. Someone made her heart beat faster, then broke it. Can a broken heart help a broken soul? _____ Girl meets girl. Girl doesn't like girl. Then girl likes girl. Could she like her back? Two girls. One story. _____ "I like: The soft side underneath her tough side. Her mind. Her wit. Her cute awkwardness. The way she bites her nails. The way she dresses, like a 90s character, like someone in a movie. The way she smells, like mint, spicy but sweet, like her personality. Her green, serious, sexy eyes. Her laugh. Her name. Her hand in my hand. The stars on her face. The X on the back of her neck. I want to make her laugh all day, want to say her name, whisper it, scream it. Phoenix. I want to hold her hand, want to kiss all the stars on her face, and want to cherish the X on the back of her neck. I want to cherish her. I don't like: Phoenix."Complete
