Brave Enough To Love Again by CalliopeBlythe

I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"

Camp MondCove by ItzAshh_31

After months of relentless searching, Nico, a Spanish teenager, arrives in America, ready to embrace his new role as a counselor and lifeguard at MondCove-a prestigious camp nestled deep within the ominous Zirconia forests. What he anticipates as a summer of adventure quickly spirals into a nightmare. From the moment he steps onto the campgrounds, an unsettling presence wraps itself around him like a cold shroud. The laughter of campers fades into an oppressive silence, and he feels unseen eyes watching him from the darkness. Campers begin to vanish without a trace, their echoes haunting the stillness. Gruesome discoveries of mutilated animals become disturbingly frequent, as if some primal force is playing a macabre game. Whispers surround the camp's sister site for girls, a place shrouded in dark secrets linked to MondCove by a shadowy fate. Campers speak of the "lost ones," young girls who vanished years ago, their fates entwined with the very land. Shadows stretch longer as day gives way to night, and the forest seems to close in, whispering ancient curses that chill him to the bone. As Nico unravels the tangled web of secrets binding MondCove and its mysterious sister camp, he grapples with his own fears and the horrifying truth lurking beneath the surface. Each investigation pulls him deeper into terror, awakening dormant horrors that have long slumbered in the woods. With the camp's malevolence closing in, Nico races against time to uncover the chilling secrets that haunt him. But as he delves deeper, he wonders: is he revealing the truth, or merely digging his own grave? Will the encroaching darkness claim him before he can piece together the elusive truth, or will he become just another whisper lost to the shadows of MondCove?

Taking Rein by vlover261

"Run!" Julia exclaimed before grabbing a hold of her bag and bolting away as soon as we heard the sound of sirens approaching us. I ran behind them before my foot got caught in a branch and I tripped, leading them to catch me. Not my best friend and my boyfriend, no. Those two ditched me. Letting the police only catch me. ***** Seventeen-year-old Sophie Reynolds thought she had her life all figured out-until a reckless decision gets her exiled to her grandfather's ranch for the summer. Trading in her designer wardrobe for dusty boots was never part of her plan, especially at a place like Equestrian Creek, where the horses outnumber the people and the only excitement comes in the form of chores. Enter Liam Parker, the easygoing stable boy with a wicked sense of humor, a captivating British accent, and a look that could stop hearts.

Forced to work side by side, their constant bickering sparks something unexpected, a slow-burn connection that's impossible to ignore. With every stolen glance and late-night conversation, Sophie realises that maybe, just maybe, her perfect world wasn't so perfect after all. One summer. One chance to rewrite her story. And one boy who just might change everything.
