Remember Me ~ wlw
Ashley was the girl people warned each other about. The one you weren't supposed to get close to. She carried the weight of past mistakes and broken relationships like ghosts that refused to let her sleep. Quiet, observant, unreadable-her silence made people uncomfortable. So they filled it with rumors. They stripped her mystery and replaced it with a label: troubled. Lily was everything Ashley wasn't allowed to be. The golden girl. The name that echoed through hallways in whispers and headlines. Everyone watched her, wanted her, envied her. But admiration has a way of blinding people. They never saw the enemies she fought in private-her addiction, the ache of an absent father, the chaos she kept hidden behind perfect smiles. On a Saturday morning, in a room meant for confessions and second chances, their worlds collided. A meeting no one talked about. A place that demanded honesty and secrecy in equal measure. They were there for different reasons, carrying different scars-but the same need to be understood. And that's where they saw each other. Not as labels. Not as rumors. Just two girls with secrets no one else could touch. What happens when two hidden worlds collide? •••• She tasted good but intoxicating. Tasted like alcohol. Tasted like my addiction I wanted moreComplete
Untamed Flames 🔥
She left to chase her dreams. She never thought she'd come back... or fall for him all over again. Lily thought she'd buried the past when she packed her bags and left the small mountain town she grew up in behind for a costal cliffside California mansion: a place where privilege and perfection can be easily eroded. But when a family emergency pulls her back to the sleepy mountain town she once called home, old wounds begin to reopen, and one in particular wears a Stetson and a crooked smile that still makes her heart race. Ford never really got over Lily, no matter how many years have passed. Seeing her again is like striking a match, suddenly everything they had is blazing back to life. But between long-buried secrets, broken trust, and the life Lily swore she'd never return to, rekindling what they once had might come at too high a price. As temptation flares and emotions rise, Lily must decide: is her future the one she's built for herself in California or in the arms of the cowboy she left behind? Heartfelt, sexy, and full of small-town charm, Untamed Flames is a second-chance romance about the love that lingers, the choices that define us, and the courage it takes to come home.Complete
