  "Stay, please don't leave me..."
  
  "That's the problem, I just can't seem to stay away from you..."
  -

Amelia Donovan has always struggled to seem normal and composed. She was just a normal teenager until a past experience ultimately changed her and perhaps keeping it a secret made matters worse. 

Fast-forwarding to summer, Amelia is determined to spend her summer the best way possible. But all her plans are canceled when she is forced to go and live with the Jacksons for a month.

 Her first impression of Coral Springs isn't at all that friendly, especially her encounter with the rude and cocky heartthrob, Austin Jackson. But isn't that the intimidating image every boy desires to present to a girl? Is he really who he sets out to be? She knows that living in the same house with him won't be easy, but truth be told, nothing in her life seems to come easy.
  
  So, what if her friends keep inviting him wherever they go?
  What if he's always around?
  Will he awaken any piece of trust left in her?
  Will she able to withstand the haunting grip of her past, or will anyone, in particular, give her reasons to keep living?

Accidental Alpha by M_A_Hartman
24 parts Ongoing Mature
When the goddess anoints a new alpha, he must claim a city. He must also choose a mate. ------------ Until recently, beta werewolf Lee Bloodmoon lived a simple life, working as a security guard for the Stillwater Casino in Hecate City, Oregon. But all that changed when he defended his sister from the mad former alpha, Owen Stillwater. Raised to the status of alpha by the goddess Hecate, Lee is told he must leave the only home he's ever known and claim a city to rule over. If that wasn't bad enough, he needs to find a luna before the next full moon. Who wants to marry a stranger? Certainly not a notoriously commitment-phobic man. Born into the lowest caste of werewolves, omegas, Kelsi Kohl is excited about the changes promised by the new Hecate City alpha, Ryan Stillwater. When her family receives an invitation to a ball hosted by Alpha Lee Bloodmoon, Kelsi begrudgingly attends with her older sister. She knows there's no way an alpha will consort with an omega, but the goddess Hecate has other plans. Invisible threads pull Kelsi and Lee together and soon Kelsi finds herself elevated to luna, a position she never imagined herself in. Finding your soulmate is wonderful, but life isn't all sunshine and roses. Especially when facing opposition from the citizens of Silver Rush, Nevada -- none of whom are excited to have a pair of werewolves take over their tiny town. Sequel to "Fall With Me", but may be read as a stand-alone. [Rated M for intimate situations, swearing, and violence.] Cover designed by @myie_laura

"He seemed like a puzzle to me, and I really liked solving puzzles. But somehow, I don't think that I would ever be able to solve this one." Amelia Heart, with her large smile and her infectious laugh, is what most people would think has the perfect life. They would watch as she went back to her beach house, as she went out of her way to stop and chat to her neighbours, as she would get the perfect grades. She was everything you wanted to be, and yet nobody had gotten close enough to her to understand her life in this small town at all. When her plans of leaving suddenly change, and she is forced to start attending the local school, her life takes a route that she hadn't accounted for. A new group of friends, a chance at a normal teenage life, even a potential love interest - things that Amelia had never even thought about happening after everything she'd been through. But happiness is only temporary in her life, and she knew that. It wasn't surprising to her when her past began to catch up with her present, it was simply a good thing that it had taken as long as it had. Things start happening in Amelia's life that simply don't make sense, even to her. They do say you should always keep an eye over your shoulder, especially when you know you're being hunted, but for Amelia, even an eye in every direction wouldn't be enough. Time begins counting down, fast. Did she want to involve her friends? Could the new people in her life be trusted? She wouldn't have long to make a decision. Not before her world comes blazing down, the final battle on the horizon. Tick, tock, Amelia. You don't want to be late to the party when you're the guest of honour. COMPLETED 06/11/20

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️ by geekiechicforall13
21 parts Complete Mature
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!
