At 23, she walks the shoreline of memory-
stepping through love once held too tightly,
heartbreaks that softened her voice,
and the echoes of a girl who felt everything.

This is not just a story of becoming.
It is a story of unbecoming-
of shedding old skins,
of leaving behind the pieces that once felt like home.

Gone Him Waiting Her by missv_fantasy

She was his first love. The girl who knew his laughter, his dreams, his fears. The one he swore he'd never let go of. Until one day, he did. Without warning. Without goodbye. He was her everything. Her first kiss. Her first heartbreak. The boy who carried her heart in his hands- and then shattered it when he disappeared. Years passed. Wounds turned into scars. She learned to live with the silence he left behind. He learned to live with the regret of leaving her. Now, fate has thrown Mason and Ella together again- in the most unexpected place, on the most ordinary day. But nothing about seeing each other feels ordinary. It feels like the past rushing back. It feels like the pieces of a love story trying to fit again. But can she trust him after the way he left? And can he prove that this time, he's here to stay? Because sometimes love doesn't end. Sometimes, it waits.

The Bosphorus Promise (Complete) by KindlingVerse

She's no longer the girl he once walked away from. He's no longer the man she thought she knew. Years have changed them both - but not the pull between their hearts. She built walls to keep him out. He crossed oceans to find his way back in. And now, in a city where secrets whisper louder than love, fate forces their worlds to collide once more. Will it heal the wounds they've carried for so long... or tear them open all over again? ************************************************* Time changes everything... except the heart.

Where Love Used to Live by Codyyyjy

A story of heartbreak, healing, and homecoming. "She thought love had left her. But it was waiting-within her all along."

Before Us, After Me by Acel89

A story of love that bloomed, broke, and left her to rebuild from the pieces. They met by chance. Fell hard. Built dreams between kisses and promises. And then- the slow unraveling. This is the story of a girl who loved deeply and lost quietly. Of betrayal whispered through late-night silences and heartbreak that didn't end with goodbye. It's about watching him become someone else's, while she was still holding onto the version of him he used to be. But it's also about becoming. Told in six parts-Before Us, Becoming Us, The Distance, The Ending, After Us, and Becoming Me Again-this is her journey from first glance to final goodbye, and the love she found on the other side of letting go.

What If I Was Nothing? by FearghalLorcan

They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.

Echoes of Us by venomserenity

He was alone, adrift in a life that felt empty, teetering on the edge of despair. She appeared unexpectedly-a stranger, yet someone who could see him in ways no one else ever had. One night, one moment, changed everything. Words were exchanged, hearts opened, and lives were altered but some encounters leave more than memories. They leave echoes. As time stretches on, love and loss weave together, shaping the paths we walk, the choices we make, and the people we become. How far would you go to hold onto someone... even when you know they can't stay?

BORDERLINE (18+) by plimble88

What happens when you fall in love while you're still breaking? 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 is officially at rock bottom. Her moods are unpredictable, her impulses reckless and healing feels like a mountain too steep to climb. She's forced to leave her wild and carefree university student life behind. June struggles to come to terms with her diagnosis. Finding herself living with estranged mother in a quiet and unfamiliar seaside town, where the silence makes everything louder. 𝐎𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞 knows what it means to lose someone slowly, and then all at once. Grief sharpened him into something rough. His tattoos are his armour, humour and charm his defences. He learned the hard way that loving someone sick can destroy you. Together they are a wildfire. Intoxicating and comforting, finding refuge in each other. As their lives collide, the line between love and self destruction blurs. Healing and falling into old pattens are balancing a tight rope. Some wounds refuse to heal quietly. "By the time you are reading this, I'm gone." 𝐴𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑛𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑖𝑡 𝑎𝑙𝑙, 𝑤𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑖 𝑐𝑟𝑜𝑠𝑠 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑑?

Mindscapes: Exploring the Depths Within by _MoonWriter01_

Sage Everhert's past love was anything but ordinary-raw, intense, and laced with moments of passion that blurred the lines between pleasure and pain. Their connection was a dance of vulnerability and desire, where whispered secrets and stolen touches left her breathless and changed forever. But beneath the heat of their intimacy lay tangled emotions-joy mixed with heartbreak, trust broken and rebuilt, and a fierce love that both saved and shattered her. Those memories still haunt her nights, stirring a longing she struggles to understand. Now, faced with the weight of loss and the harshness of everyday life, Sage is caught between escaping the past and reclaiming her future. This is a story of healing, hope, and the messy truths of loving deeply. #maturelove #18+ #selfprotrait #thoughtsonmind #loneliness

King of Hearts: Forever Young in Heart by DylanMedley2000

His story is released..but it is just getting started. It is just a new chapter to the fairytale. She released her past into my ears of visions of ways she was never truly loved. I still wanted her heart even if it was already broken. No one knows how long it takes to erase someone from their memory. Days, months, or maybe even years. See he was just different in the way he acted. All his life he had to fight. Had to act a certain way around certain people. He once believed it was a curse. But slowly he is starting to see it is a blessing. Whatever he sees or feels from an environment he adapted to. Every women he gave love to. All roads have lead to this destination.
