"Beyond Attraction"
---
Liyanna Johnson thought she knew love-until the boy she trusted shattered her spirit with cruel words. Now, she's starting over in Louisiana, leaning on her faith as she tries to heal. But moving forward isn't easy when the past still whispers that she's not enough.

Jamal Carter walked away from the streets, from the money, from the life that almost swallowed him whole. He knows God's calling him to something better, but the weight of his past still lingers. He's trying to stay on the right path, but some days, it feels like he's one wrong step away from falling again.

Then he meets her.

It starts with a few words, a fleeting moment-but suddenly, everything shifts. Liyanna wasn't looking for someone like Jamal. Jamal wasn't expecting someone like Liyanna. Yet, in each other, they find something unexpected: honesty, grace... maybe even a glimpse of God's love.

But faith is a battle. Love even more so.

She's still learning to trust again. He's still learning to believe he's worthy. And with their pasts threatening to pull them under, they'll have to decide-will they fight for healing, for faith, for each other? Or will fear keep them from the future God has for them?

The Other Side of Ordinary by childishgenius

In The Other Side of Ordinary, 18-year-old Elias Garcia has always felt like he lives under the weight of his own reflection. Born with a facial birth defect, he's been accustomed to the stares, whispers, and the feeling of not quite fitting in. Growing up in a small town, Eli was never able to shake the constant sense of being "different," and he doubts anyone could ever see beyond his appearance to the person he really is. Now, starting university, Eli is ready to keep his head down, focus on his studies, and avoid the social pitfalls that plagued him in high school. But when he meets Amara, a spirited and kind-hearted art student, he's caught off guard by her warmth and curiosity. Amara doesn't seem fazed by his appearance; in fact, she seems drawn to his sharp wit and gentle soul. For the first time, Eli begins to question whether he's truly unworthy of love and acceptance. As their friendship grows into something more, Eli is forced to confront his deepest insecurities and the walls he's built to keep people out. Through laughter, shared struggles, and small acts of courage, Eli learns that love isn't about being flawless- it's about being seen. And maybe, just maybe, he might be brave enough to let someone see him for who he really is.
