Autumn's Embrace follows Elliot Sanders, a successful marketing executive from New York City, who relocates to the quaint countryside town of Willow Creek. Burned out by the relentless pace of the corporate world and feeling unfulfilled despite his success, Elliot seeks a quieter life. He buys a charming farmhouse, hoping the peaceful rural surroundings will help him reset. 

Elliot initially struggles to adjust. The town's slow pace feels foreign after years in the city. But as he spends time with Lily Harris, the local school teacher, he finds himself captivated by her warmth. Their chemistry grows, yet Lily is hesitant, having been hurt by men who couldn't commit to the country life. She fears Elliot may return to the city, leaving her behind. 

Autumn's vibrant colors mirror Elliot's transformation as he falls in love with Willow Creek and Lily. When a prestigious job offer from New York pulls him back to his past, Elliot must decide between his career and this new life.  

Elliot chooses Willow Creek, committing to both Lily and the small-town life that has brought him the peace he was searching for. Together, they embrace the simple joys of the countryside and build a life filled with love and community. 

The novel ends as winter approaches, and Elliot reflects on how much his life has changed, finding happiness in the place and with the person he now calls home. *Autumn's Embrace* explores the beauty of small-town life, the tension between ambition and contentment, and the joy that comes from love and belonging.All Rights Reserved

Anneliese || ✎ by pitifulkisses

As long as I have you. *Description still in progress.* Anneliese is a sweet, kind, empathetic, and outgoing young woman. Often looking for new ways to meet friends, she wouldn't pass the opportunity to chat someone up. Even a stranger at the diner she works at. Xavier was the opposite. He preferred to sit alone and neglect any open conversation. It's strange he's taking a liking to someone so opposite of him, but once he's gotten a glimpse of her contagious smile he can't seem to get enough. ~ ❀ ~ I can't help but stare at her. Her face, lips, and smile, and her nose. Even her long, curled lashes. "Let's do a butterfly kiss!" She exclaims, pulling my face close suddenly. Kiss? My heart hammers in my chest, my breath hitching. Her small hands hold my face close to hers. It's not very forceful, I could pull away if I wanted to, but I let her have control. Her hands are warm and soft against my jaw. Getting closer, her eyes lashes flutter and I find myself holding my breath. She brushes her lashes to mine, her breath fanning against my lips. Subconsciously, I lean forward, wanting my lips to be on hers. June flutter her lashes, grazing her lashes to mine. Out of nowhere she bursts out in a fit of laughter. I flinch back. Butterfly kiss. That was not a fucking kiss. ~ ❀ ~ *Warning* Mature themes will be covered (language, actions, etc).

Home is a Four Letter Word by hannagustin

(Book One) Jake Holmes hadn't put much thought into what home meant until Connor Morgan asked him to. He had settled with an idealistic fantasy. A life in the closet, complete with the girl he could bring home to momma, a house next to his best friend, and 2.5 kids. It didn't require thought, it didn't require confrontation, and it sure as hell didn't require him to reject everything he had ever learned about what life was and what made it worth living. But Connor did. Connor wasn't meant to happen. He ended up in Jake's life by chance, but Jake kept him there by choice. Connor was a pipedream stuffed away inside the ridges of Jake's mind that dared him to question everything for a life of authenticity. A life with Connor was something close enough to touch if he only knew how to reach for it. Jake's feelings for Connor become unmistakable, but the grip his past has on his ability to embrace the possibility of a life where he lets those feelings win threatens to leave him with a desperate choice he isn't equipped to make. As Jake struggles to find home within his identity, he is forced to combat the part of his heart that is stuck in the past with the part of his heart that yearns for a future. What is home if not where the heart is? Completed. Book 1 of 3. Sequel releases coming soon.

Main Character Vibes by adastrian

Adulting is a difficult journey fraught with stress, anxiety, loneliness, catching feelings, heartbreak, painful healing, routine, monotony... all to simply learn how to be the main character in your own life... Main Character Vibes follows the intertwining lives of an ensemble cast of millennials as they struggle to find meaning & purpose in the big city. It's October in Toronto. Autumn has exacerbated that sinking feeling that comes when winter is on the horizon. Elias & Tilly have been living together for three years ever since they met and graduated from college. As a Legal intern, Tilly is overworked and under-loved but has no time for anything else. Having been living the same day for the past three years, Elias is disillusioned by life after college...his frequent panic attacks are just one symptom of that monotony. Things take a drastic turn when Wayne (a retired investment banker turned art collector) injects a little bit of chaos into Elias's routine. Being Elias's mentor, Wayne persuades him that passion needs reviving every now and then and takes him to a plush brothel that he partly owns with madame Clara Desbiens, who herself came to the big city with plans of her own. Then there are Francis and Marie who are stuck in a stagnant marriage. But unbeknownst to Francis, Marie is having an affair with Wayne. Thus, the characters go through the motions putting temporary bandages on permanent wounds until an inevitable carnage unravels their lives on a cold October night in the heart of Canada's biggest metropolis.

Miss, Do I Know You? by badgalres

A stranger to her own existence, Kayla moves to a small town with the hope of finding comfort in fresh starts. But as she steps inside the unfamiliar classroom on the first day, standing in front of the class is a mysteriously familiar face, one that rouses memories of a time before everything had gone awry. With past baggage catching up in the most intrusive ways, she stumbles upon unexpected pleasures that breathe life into her soul -- comfort of new friendships, rekindling of old ones frayed by time and circumstance, unconditional love of found family, and the blossoming of a beautiful yet complicated bond between two hesitant souls. And when fate starts asking for more, people are forced to dig deep within. ────── "This book was like a warm hug, and I might believe in love again."

"This book has ruined Wattpad forever for me because everything else seems too plain now, too shallow." ────── CW: Drug abuse, harsh language, sexual content, mention of self-harm, mention of suicide. ────── Started in January 2018. Re-published in November 2022. First draft finished in April 2023.
