When August Vaughn is forced to move cities yet again, she makes a promise to herself - no attachments, no heartbreak. She has spent the last seventeen years of her life guarding her heart, but when she meets Ciara O'brian, her walls begin to crumble. For the first time ever, August feels like she belongs. The only problem is Ciara's older brother, Ciann, an arrogant rugby star who seems determined to push her away. 

Ciann O'brian has his future mapped out- graduate, go pro, and leave the small town of Kilkenny, Ireland, behind. He can't afford distractions, especially not from his sister's sharp-tongued American friend. Determined to stay focused, Ciann makes August hate him, or at least he tries too. But no matter how hard he pushes, she keeps showing up, refusing to back down. 

As their final year of secondary school unfolds, August and Ciann find themselves caught in a turbulent dance of rivalry and friendship. But after their last summer, everything falls apart and they stop speaking altogether. 

Now, with their past and future colliding, the two must decide if some stories are meant to be rewritten, or if their last August together was truly the end.

BUT DADDY I LOVE HIM | boys of tommen by -luvvlia
14 parts Ongoing Mature
Romeo O'Brien has always known who he is. On the pitch, he's one of Tommen College's star rugby players-fierce, fast, and impossible to miss. Off the field, he's surrounded by a family that shows love like it's second nature. But even in that world of safety and strength, there's one truth he hasn't dared to speak aloud. Not yet. McKenzie Donahue is used to silence. Quiet by nature and more comfortable on the sidelines than in the spotlight, he plays hurling at BCS not because he loves it, but because it's expected of him. In his house, appearances matter, and anything outside the norm-especially who you love-isn't just unwelcome. It's dangerous. They meet by accident, thanks to a cousin who drags McKenzie to a Tommen rugby game. Romeo's energy is electric, his confidence magnetic-and for reasons McKenzie can't explain, he can't stop looking. And Romeo? He notices the quiet boy who doesn't quite fit in but sees everything. What begins as a few stolen conversations quickly deepens into something neither of them planned for. Friendship becomes a lifeline. And then... something more. But in a world where secrets are necessary for survival, falling in love isn't just risky-it could cost them everything. Torn between the safety of silence and the freedom of truth, Romeo and McKenzie must navigate growing feelings, complicated families, rival schools, and the harsh glare of expectation. One is ready to fight for love. The other isn't sure he's allowed to want it.

His eyes are set on making her the next victim of his playful games, just to piss off her dad. Even with her father's warnings to stay away from the new neighbors, Gabby finds herself breaking the rules for the first time in her life. It brings out the best and the worst of the people she trusts the most, including herself. Secrets she didn't even know she carried are brought to light, shaking the town to its core.
