Lie to me by juliaXwritessss

Olivia Winters is ambitious, creative, and unapologetically herself. As a fashion design student, she has a keen eye for style and a natural talent for sketching women's clothing. She's independent, outspoken, and not easily impressed, which makes her a challenge for anyone trying to get close to her. Olivia has a sharp wit and isn't afraid to speak her mind, but underneath her tough exterior, she has a vulnerable side that she doesn't let many people see. Lucas Foster is confident, athletic, and effortlessly charming. As a college soccer player, he's competitive and driven, but when it comes to Olivia, she's the only game he can't seem to win easily. He's flirtatious and persistent, always ready with a cocky grin and a teasing remark. While he may seem laid-back on the surface, he's deeply loyal and protective of the people he cares about. ** Olivia and Lucas have a relationship filled with tension, banter, and undeniable chemistry. From the moment they met, sparks flew-sometimes in the form of heated arguments, sometimes in stolen glances that neither of them wanted to acknowledge. Their dynamic is electric, built on playful challenges and moments that gradually chip away at Olivia's walls. Lucas is relentless in his pursuit, but Olivia makes him work for every inch. She challenges him, keeps him on his toes, and refuses to fall for his usual charm. But beneath all the teasing and push-and-pull, there's something real-something neither of them can ignore. Their love story unfolds over the summer, a season of late-night conversations, unexpected moments, and the kind of slow burn that makes every touch, every glance, and every kiss feel like a victory. They may drive each other crazy, but at the end of the day, there's no one else who makes them feel more alive. Started-07/06/24 Ended - 02/21/25

More Than A Game by melyywrites

Genevieve Aldridge has it all-money, looks, popularity, and the kind of rebellious charm that makes her the queen of the high school scene. Her life is perfect-or that's what they thought. She's bold, impulsive, and always chasing the next thrill. And when boredom hits, nothing's off-limits-not even a reckless little bet. Ethan Carter is everything she's not. Quiet. Brilliant. Mysterious. The kind of guy who keeps his head down, his grades high, and his heart locked up tight. While others are partying, he's planning his future-far away from high school drama and girls like Genevieve. So when she makes a bet to get the school's most untouchable nerd to fall for her, it's just another game... at first. But the more time she spends around Ethan-the more she sees beyond the books and sarcasm-the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends and something real begins. He wasn't supposed to matter. She wasn't supposed to feel anything. And love? That was never part of the plan. But some games have unexpected endings, right? ⸻ Just a heads-up: English isn't my first language, so there might be a few small mistakes here and there. Still, I hope you enjoy the story-and feel free to let me know if anything sounds off!
