Leon Kennedy and Blaire Deveraux were born into a world of privilege, but their story is anything but typical. From building sandcastles as toddlers to building billion-dollar empires as adults, their journey is a tapestry woven with friendship, loyalty, and a love that simmered beneath the surface for years.

As heirs to powerful dynasties, Leon and Blaire grew up side by side, their lives entwined by family ties and an unspoken bond. Alongside the rest of the Big Five-Matt, Chris, and David-they ruled the halls of Pentecost University, a world where wealth, power, and influence were merely the baseline. But amidst the glamorous parties, cutthroat business ambitions, and the expectations of their legacies, Leon and Blaire's relationship remained the steady heartbeat of their story.

"The Longest Wait: Beginnings" captures the slow, beautiful burn of a love story years in the making. From their earliest childhood memories to the pivotal summer that turned friendship into romance, this novel explores the small moments and grand gestures that shape their connection. Through high school football games, college parties, and summers abroad, readers will witness every glance, every touch, and every near-confession that led to their first kiss-and, eventually, their life-changing engagement.

But not all is picture-perfect. With new threats like Nick Gallant emerging and old rivalries simmering, Leon and Blaire must navigate the delicate balance between love and legacy. As their families react to their romance and their friends rally around them, they'll discover that while waiting for the perfect moment may be the longest wait of all, it is undoubtedly worth it.

Dive into a world where every chapter feels like a stolen moment, and get lost in a love story that proves that sometimes, the best things in life are worth waiting for.Todos os Direitos Reservados

You Belong With Me (Complete), de MyOwnWorld13

Author's note: Before you read this, I just want to let you all know that I have grown up now and I am no longer the same stupid teenager who wrote this with some of the offensive jokes and comments that you may see in here. Clearly, I was still very naive and lacked awareness. I implore you to please read with caution and at your own risk. Some statements will be offensive and I truly apologize (I literally died from cringe when I read this again). I will not delete this seeing as there are still numerous people who choose to read and enjoy it (surprisingly) but I trust that you know better and what is right. ________________ Penelope Myers a.k.a. Pel is one of the teenagers you could describe as a nerd, shy, timid and weird. Even though a lot of people don't like her, this couldn't stop her feelings grow for Jay Richards, the most popular guy in their school. She would do anything just to get him. But when Jay and Kate Jenkins (the meanest, most popular cheerleader in school) started dating, her heart was immediately shattered into a million pieces. She knew she couldn't beat Kate since she was a bully, perfect, popular and most of all possessive. She could be scary. Daniel Harper a.k.a. Danny is one of Pel's best friends. He was as nerdy as her and a bit shy too. He knew about her feelings for this Jay guy and he didn't like it at all. You see, he had a secret crush on Pel since they first met and no one knew it except him. But when he saw how sad and desperate Pel was after finding out Jay and Kate's relationship, he decided to help her get him anyway. He only wanted her happiness after all. But can Danny change Pel's mind along the way and be his instead? This story is a simple teen love romance that you would definitely want to read. It includes humor, heartbreak, best friends, crushes and most of all true love. It's cliche as it could get. But hey, life is one big cliche too right? (Trailer on the side)

Boring to Beautiful, de thepeetaphile

His face was only inches from mine, but yet it still seemed his confidence was beaming. "You seem to forget that I am the king of getting girls to fall for me, and I know that by the end of this year, you will hopelessly fall in love with me." I hoped he was wrong. But yet, he was probably right. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kennedy Everson was never anything but "average." And she was okay with that. But when she finds out she's moving to a different state, and her boyfriend is dumping her because he wants "a bad girl," she decides to take the opportunity to "reinvent herself." New clothes, new hair, new makeup, and new personality. Everett Jenkins was your typical jock/player. And he liked it that way. Using girls, that was what he was good at. But when a mysterious new girl shows up, and he begins to unravel all of her secrets, is she just another conquest, or something more? With all the late night parties, frustrating study sessions, and awkward family dinners, there is guaranteed laughs, tears, heartbreaks, and first loves.

Tangled Hearts | 18+, de RennyTee

[BOOK 1] What they have is messy, reckless, and impossible to walk away from🦋 ************* Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks. He's charming, infuriating, and a walking complication she doesn't need. But no matter how hard she tries to keep her distance, there's something about him that feels like gravity, pulling her closer with every encounter. Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.

Heartsong for Dr. Montgomery (Book 1 Gavine), de CVanderbutch

What started as a no-strings-attached arrangement between Princess Alexa, the next in line for the British crown, and Gavine, an American Olympian with dreams of medical school, quickly spiraled into something neither of them anticipated. Their casual connection deepened, their emotions caught them off guard, and before long, they realized they were falling for each other--hard. It may sound like a cliché, but the saying about timing is painfully true. Even when you find the right person, the timing doesn't always cooperate. And when your relationship involves the entire British Commonwealth as an uninvited third party, it can be more than a little daunting. But love is never simple. As Alexa grapples with the weight of royal expectations and duty, and Gavine tries to balance her burgeoning career, relentless paparazzi, and meddling friends, their journey becomes one of resilience, self-discovery, and navigating a world determined to keep them apart. This is the first installment in the "Sapphic Starwood Love Series," a sweeping tale of love, ambition, and the courage it takes to rewrite the rules. *** Authors Note: This is an adult novel with sexual female-on-female content.

HONESTLY, de sunnybirch

Nicky Peters sets out on an emotional roller coaster when she creates a melody from an old high school journal entry which develops into her debut song for her second album. Her personal and professional life become quickly complicated when she finds herself standing in front of the one person she thought she'd never see again, the same person who unfortunately understands all too well who Nicky's hit song is really about...him. ******** Nicky Peters' rise to fame in country music was fast, being plucked out of obscurity at seventeen after her YouTube videos went viral. After she pens a very personal song from one of her old high school journals called, "Honestly," for her much-anticipated second album, she realizes her feelings will be under a microscope for the whole world to see, including Nate Stanton, her ex-best friend from childhood.

While Nicky's misfortunes add up, she realizes fame comes with a price.

Beneath Her Brown Eyes , de SupriyaRSingh5

𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 1 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 ♡𝐇𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞♡ 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝐀𝐝𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞, the 𝑪𝑬𝑶 of 𝑹𝒆𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒆, on her path to achieving her goal of becoming the next diamond queen, suddenly faced an unexpected turn of events that sent her straight back to what she always dreaded: marriage. She wasn't gamophobic or philophobic, but the thought of sharing her space, time, and life with someone intimately made her nauseous. But life never goes the way we desire-especially not when we're stubborn enough to resist what it demands. She had dodged relationships in the past like a soldier dodges bullets, but now it seemed inevitable. She had dreamt many things-good, bad, lucky, unlucky-but never imagined being married at the age of 32, that too to someone younger than her. Enter 𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐡. Looks like a cinnamon roll, is exactly a cinnamon roll. He could've been the golden child of his parents if he hadn't chosen to be a 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒓. Coming from a family of diamond merchants, it was rebellious of him to take such a step-but sometimes young blood, in rebellion, makes the best decisions. He had planned his life perfectly: gain experience, earn money, buy land in North East India, and settle there in the peace of hills and greenery. But oh, my little boy-he is now tied to a marriage he never asked for. And the worst part? He has no idea why someone so beautiful, carrying the aura of buying tens of him, decided to marry 𝒉𝒊𝒎. Not his elder brother. Not any cousin. But him. It wasn't just a shock-it was disbelief. He saw her eyes, and those brown orbs captivated him enough to keep him from noticing the glint of victory behind them. He had never even held a woman's hand in his entire life, yet now being hers made him feel he was in love. But... is she too? What will happen the day he discovers the reason behind the marriage

The Choices I've Made (By the Bay #1), de authorjlberg

Twelve years ago, he drove away with my heart in his hands. I've moved on since then. Or so I thought. Growing up in a small town, there weren't too many options when it came to friends. But, even in a sea of a million, I'd always choose Jake Jameson. I felt safe with him. Safe with my secrets, my dreams and eventually - my heart. I thought we'd have forever together. That was a long time ago. I thought I'd forgotten those piercing blue eyes and the sound of his laugh. I tried to obliterate the memory of his touch from my mind. But, one single glance, as he stands at my door, twelve years later, and I'm suddenly transported back to a simpler time when love was easy, and my heart was whole. The problem? I'm marrying his best friend.

Picture Picture, de RightHer

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.

The Guy I Could Never Have , de Amisha516

Some people arrive quietly. No fireworks. No background music. Just a look. A name. A violet shirt in a white room. You don't realize it's the start. Not until you're too far in. I didn't fall for him the way stories say you should. There was no moment of knowing. Just a slow ache that built between library tables and half-finished coffee cups. The kind of love that feels like a question no one teaches you how to ask. We were never official. Never obvious. We were playlists. Eye contact. A sentence that almost sounded like confession-until it didn't. And somewhere in that space between almost and never, I became someone I didn't recognize. Someone quieter. Smaller. And then... someone who walked away. This is not a story about the guy I ended up with. This is about the one I couldn't have. The one who arrived too late. The one who taught me that not all love stories need a happy ending- Some just need a girl who finally chooses herself. And this time, I did.
