We're all about to start something huge. Callie and Andrew, you two are going to crush it in med school. And me... well, I'll make sure all your legal troubles are taken care of. Daniel said with a smile.


My mom's voice was a fragile... Daniel's gone. Your twin, he-he died during a law school hazing.


I wanted Andrew-God, how I wanted him-but I wasn't sure if we could really go back. Could we rebuild something out of the ruins of what we once had? Or was it too late?


I'm sorry, I whispered, my voice breaking. I didn't mean to hurt you, Andrew. I was...I wasn't okay. After Daniel died... after everything, I didn't know how to be. I thought leaving was the only way to survive.


I spent years wondering what I did wrong, he finally says, his voice soft but filled with hurt. I couldn't understand why you left, and I never got closure. Do you have any idea how that feels?All Rights Reserved

BROKEN HOPE (Lucas & Emilia Book 2) by ArianaClarkAuthor

I was so damn naive it's no wonder I've ended up here. Kidnapped by the man who promised me forever, just as I'd begun to understand the depths of his betrayal. It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak. I was a fool to believe in the vows and promises they made. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 2 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc. For the complete experience, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.

Somebody Like You by LethalDreamer01

Step one: graduate. Step two: accidentally sleep with your best friend. Step three: get trapped working summer camp together because your other best friend has no sense of boundaries. Now Enya and Maddie are sharing a cabin, pretending nothing happened, and doing a terrible job at it. It's hot. It's messy. It's gay. * * * The summer before college was supposed to be chill; sunburns, iced lattes, maybe a mild existential crisis. But when Skylar signs everyone up to be counselors at a middle school camp, Enya and Maddie find themselves trapped in a mosquito-infested nightmare... together. One small problem: They may or may not have ACCIDENTALLY hooked up after graduation. And Maddie is convinced Enya planned the whole thing. Between canoe races gone wrong, s'mores that end in arguments, and bunkhouse confessions they swore would never happen again, both girls are about to learn that feelings aren't something you can logic your way out of-or yell your way past. Because sometimes the person who drives you craziest... is the one who feels like home.

A Safe Place To Land (My Journey Series Book 1) by MAF9898

After turning twenty-one, Maya sets out to find the birth mother who might explain everything. A violent encounter with a mysterious man plunges her into a darker world.

Love becomes both lifeline and liability-can redemption survive, or will the darkness destroy them both? What will Maya uncover about herself and his past as she tumbles down this dark path? Is he her safe place to land? Chapter 21 Peek: "Another one?" My eyes shot to Miles, who stood in the doorway, his silhouette framed by the faint light. I licked my lips, dry and cracked from anxiety, glancing at Grayson, who was still out cold, oblivious to the storm raging inside me. 'Denial. Deny, deny, deny.' The mantra echoed in my head, a feeble shield against the truth. "What are you talking about?" "You know EXACTLY what I'm talking about, Maya. Trey is taunting you. He texted you when we arrived- I SAW the message. Don't try to hide it-it's completely obvious." Miles stepped closer, his voice low but insistent, his eyes searching mine with a mix of concern and frustration.

SAVE ME by vickkyzzle

He was a song I heard long before the world began to listen. Before the stages. Before the screaming. Before he forgot how to breathe without being watched. I knew Luca when his voice shook more than it soared. When his dreams were still small enough to fit between us. And then the world wanted him. Took him. Rewrote him in lights and noise and silence. There are things I'll never say aloud- The nights he didn't come home. The way he looked at me like I was gravity, and then, like I was a ghost. The moments I held him so tightly I almost believed I could keep him from vanishing. But you can't save someone who's already halfway gone. You can only love them in the ruins. In the silence between the songs. In the parts no one else sees. This is not a fairytale. It's the after. The ache. The truth we don't put in interviews. The story of a girl who loved a boy the world tried to worship. And the boy who forgot how to be anything but adored. We were never built to survive the noise. But for a moment, we almost did. *Dear Readers, bear in mind that all the situations from the story are FICTIONAL. They NEVER happened.*

After all, seventeen years would not let him forget... Would he survive if she didn’t want the same thing?

No Broken-hearted girl (Crushing Hard Series Book 2) by nokxygirl

Dear: Diary 02/04/2013 Then Kevin smiled at me. And I felt my heart beat for the first time in a very long time. All he did was smile, and suddenly this very dead heart of mine started beating very fast. The beating was so loud, I felt it ringing in my ears, and reverberating all over my body. His eyes bore into me, and I felt my cheeks heat up. Everything faded around me, I forgot that I was in class, and that there was a lecturer infront prattling on about Business Management. Everyone just ceased to exist. I don't know what it was about him, he wasn't the most handsome guy I'd ever seen, he wasn't the best dressed, but it was the confidence in his smile. His lips had curved into a closed lip smile that spoke so many things. I don't know what it was saying, but it was saying something and I had a feeling that he knew that his smile was bringing this girl back to life. I felt the inkling of a spark of attraction(okay, it wasn't an inkling, it was a whole lot of attraction), my back straightened and my body quivered with excitement. No, Diary! Not THAT kind of excitement, I mean the kind of excitement you feel when there's someone you know could be watching you and when there's someone new to crush on. I'd been floating around for so long, trying to avoid feeling anything because I didn't want to deal with the heartache of losing Scott and now on a random Tuesday afternoon, I was slammed back down to earth and I was suddenly experiencing all sorts of emotions. And then one thing became crystal clear... I was broken-hearted girl no more.

The Way We Used to Be by TVDfanforInfinity

I lost my mom at 11, that's when it started. My dad became a drunk and I was left to take care of my 3-month-old baby sister.

She never fully understood when I needed someone to and I didn't have many friends that stuck around afterwards. Until I met him. We were friends first, then the feelings got deeper. He asked me to be his girlfriend. He was my first kiss, first date, first real friend, first love, everything. I loved him and I do. I've said it. Now all we do is fight. I don't know why we can't figure things out, but I can't take this fighting. I just want things to go back to the way things were. The way we used to be... Happy, carefree teens that pretended we had the whole world figured out.

The Choices I've Made (By the Bay #1) by authorjlberg

Twelve years ago, he drove away with my heart in his hands. I've moved on since then. Or so I thought. Growing up in a small town, there weren't too many options when it came to friends. But, even in a sea of a million, I'd always choose Jake Jameson. I felt safe with him. Safe with my secrets, my dreams and eventually - my heart. I thought we'd have forever together. That was a long time ago. I thought I'd forgotten those piercing blue eyes and the sound of his laugh. I tried to obliterate the memory of his touch from my mind. But, one single glance, as he stands at my door, twelve years later, and I'm suddenly transported back to a simpler time when love was easy, and my heart was whole. The problem? I'm marrying his best friend.

Unwanted (BoyxBoy) ~Completed~ by xXPsychodicPandaXx

(WARNING!: DEPRESSING CONTENT, POORLY WRITTEN: READ AT YOUR OWN RISK) "I deserve just as much pain as she gives me." He said fully meaning it and crushing my heart all at once. "No you don't. You are just a broken person both inside and out and all you need is to be fixed. When you're fixed there is nothing but beauty deep in you." I told him truthfully as he looked into my eyes with his shining with tears. In that moment all I could do was feel my heart break for this beautiful boy. But something else was there and it was that I cared for him too. I was starting to fall for Andy. Before I could comprehend what was happening, I slowly leaned towards him and gave him a gentle kiss on his lips. It only lasted a couple of seconds, but it was enough to tell him that he wasn't alone. That he had me and together we could get through this. . *Attention:THIS STORY IS VERY VERY POORLY WRITTEN!!!!!! VERY VERY BAD!!!!!!!! It's gotten more popular than I thought it would be and for that I'm embarrassed because it's not my best work. You're free to be however critical you want to be on this<3
