Sofia never imagined she'd leave her small Romanian town to live halfway across the world as an exchange student in Seattle. But when opportunity knocked, she couldn't resist the adventure. With nerves and excitement coursing through her, she steps into a world of cozy porches, vibrant roses, and a welcoming host family that feels too good to be true.

As she navigates cultural differences, new friendships, and a blossoming sense of independence, Sofia finds herself drawn to Nathan, her host family's charming and unexpected son. With his quick wit, easy smile, and those dimples, he's not making this transition any easier-or less complicated.

Between adjusting to a new life and finding her footing in a city she's only dreamed of, Sofia learns that sometimes the best journeys take you far beyond what you planned and straight into the heart of the unexpected.

A heartfelt coming-of-age story about love, self-discovery, and the beauty of finding home in the most unlikely places.All Rights Reserved

And Sophia is content to stay in the radius of her hometown in Brookline, Massachusetts forever and ever. Change is not a word that exists in her vocabulary. Sophia doesn't take risks. She doesn't see the point. That is, until her free spirited sister, Abby, convinces her to take a trip to Hawaii. Then everything changes, because Sophia meets Jake... JACOB SULLIVAN JONES doesn't know who he is. His estranged parents have tried to control his entire life according to their plan. He has two options, and picking one would be like picking a parent.

What could possibly go wrong? WARNING: This book may cause bouts of nausea, anger, and loneliness. You may also experience sudden outbursts of excitement, and/or an overwhelming urge to squeal.

First Love, Forever Love | 🥇 2023 Amby Winner by SueLou66

"We were just kids in love." Nicole is an outgoing senior in high school, hoping to make this year her best yet. She is the new girl in town and is looking forward to new friends and experiences. All seems to be going smoothly until meeting Tessa. In Tessa's eyes, Nicole is stealing everything that Tessa believes belongs to her. And she is in no way trying to hide her hostility towards Nicole. William, a green-eyed boy who has his life planned out for him, grew up in this town. He knows everyone and is popular amongst his friends. He makes an effort to spend every bit of his free time hanging out with his friends at the lake. When Nicole and William's eyes connect for the first time, neither one can look away. Is there such a thing as love at first sight? I want to think so. *** First Love, Forever Love is the first story that I had the pleasure of writing for a contest. Little did I know that this story would be the catalyst of my passion for writing. I loosely based this story on my husband's and my love story. While much of it is fiction, there are snippets of truth throughout. I hope you enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed writing it and revising it for Wattpad.

Astrid pleaded, trying to convince Drake to tutor her in the brain-wrecking subject of physics. "Not my problem." He waved me off as he stood up, followed by me. "I'm making it your problem!" I blocked his way stubbornly. A sigh left his mouth. "Will you stop annoying me if I say yes?" "I'll try." I shrugged, getting a pointed look in return. "I promise! I'll be a good student." "Don't make me regret it." He muttered. "I won't. Thank you so much." Not helping his mood, my next action definitely complied with mine.

Fallen Too Deep by PrettyLiars123

MATURE CONTENT Enter at your own risk.... "I'm not expecting declarations of love, nor anything much, really. Hell, I don't even know if I want a relationship. But I can't deny that I want you. Really bad." I admitted it for the first time aloud. "I think it's pretty out there that we want each other, don't you?" A teasing grin played about his lips. "So what do you suppose we do about that?" I eyed his lips and sucked in my own. "Well, you're the first girl that I don't see as a one-time thing so it's not like we do it once and I can just let you go." He said. "Maybe you won't have to." I proposed. "We're both obviously not into a relationship right now, and that's why I think it would be best to keep it physical in that sense and we wouldn't damage our friendship because there was never a relationship to squash it." ******************************************************* With the inability to trust the male population, Sofia Vincenti goes into college with the thought that she would be strictly focusing on school...for a little bit anyway. Setting up her cousin/roommate, Kristina Vincenti, with Isaac Mulvaney turned out to be a little more complicated since she can't seem to get his best friend, Nathan Stone, out of her mind. He's sexy, he's sweet -- only to her --, he also just wants to be her friend. Until they realize they want each other, and begin the unhealthy relationship of a friends with benefits. The real question is: can Sofia really keep her heart out of it, or has she fallen too deep?
