A simple coming of age, maybe coming out story.
Riley has been through the trenches when it comes to relationships. Evil, hair obsessed men, suicide threats and attempts, she can never seem to get it right.
When she decides to channel the other side of her sexuality that she doesn't give much attention to, she finds herself in a theoretically perfect relationship, or so she thought.
Is love really enough? Or are some people really just not meant to be, no matter the timing?

Together forever
At eighteen, Laura Quinn was abandoned and pregnant-but she never gave up. With fierce determination, she raised her daughter, Camil, forging a life out of nothing. But just as they began to find their footing, life struck again. A devastating illness left Laura fragile, and Camil-still a teenager-became caregiver, breadwinner, and daughter all at once. Laura's greatest sorrow wasn't her illness-it was the fear she couldn't give Camil the future she deserved. Then, tragedy. Laura's passing leaves Camil truly alone, barely an adult and drowning in grief. Until a ray of hope breaks through: her best friend helps her land a high-paying job with a powerful and enigmatic employer, Mr. Dvreis. But the job isn't what it seems. As Camil is drawn deeper into a world of secrets, shadows, and unexpected power, she begins to unravel truths about herself-and her past-that will change everything she thought she knew. Love, betrayal, and destiny collide in this emotionally charged tale of resilience, sacrifice, and the hidden strength within us all.
Hazy (wlw)
"What if Oliver's not your type either?" Emma Sinclair is trying to keep everything where it belongs. Oliver on one side. Violet on the other. Everything steady. Predictable. Safe. She thought she could hold it together. She was wrong. Something shifts-quiet at first, then all at once. And suddenly, what she's supposed to want doesn't feel right anymore... and what does feels like something she can't explain, can't control-and definitely can't let anyone see. Especially not Violet. Because some lines aren't meant to be crossed. And once they are, there's no going back. TW: strong language, abusive parents, depressionComplete
