They were almost everything.
Almost friends. Almost lovers.
Almost brave enough to admit what they really wanted.

Almost Yours
Book 1.

Jacob

We were never just friends.

Since I was thirteen, it's always been her-April Larson. The girl with the smart mouth and the shy smile. The one who made me feel like nothing else mattered.

Everyone says growing up in a small town is boring. They have no idea.

Because loving April has never been simple. We've been everything: friends, strangers, lovers. And no matter how hard I try, I can't stop wanting her.

But wanting someone doesn't mean you get to keep them.

This is the story of the nights we couldn't stay away, the mornings we pretended nothing happened, and all the times we were almost brave enough to tell the truth.

Almost Yours is about first love, second chances, and the kind of heartbreak you never really outgrow.

Riley and Devin by RoseAndBone
83 parts Complete Mature
"How many romance books do you read?" Devin asks me. I shrug. "I like them," I say. I keep browsing, running my fingers along the spines. "So, you like romance then?" he asks me. I nod. "What's your favorite part of a love story?" "I like the very first kiss, but I like the second one even more," I say. I bite my lip and look at him. Oh. My. God. What the hell am I doing? Am I flirting? I think that I'm actually flirting. With Devin. Devin, my best friend. I have officially lost my mind. I should probably stop. But I can't seem to. "Will you grab me that one?" I ask. I point above my head, my back's pressed against the bookcase. He locks his gaze on mine and reaches over me to grab the book I asked for. "Thanks." I don't move and neither does he. Riley and Devin have been best friends forever-since Kindergarten. It's Senior year of high school, now. And it's always been simple, Riley's got his back, he's got hers. But as life goes on Riley can't help but wonder if maybe he's not just her best friend, if she likes him as possibly something more. As her feelings deepen and become something greater it becomes more evident that she's falling, really hard. No matter how hard Riley tries she can't stop falling, she can't stop from loving him. Even if it tears her to pieces or even if it destroys their friendship. Pretty soon Riley is going to have to choose between walking the safe line of friendship or taking the unpaved path of love. Will she risk everything for love?

"They hated each other first. Then they learned what real love feels like messy, loud, and impossible to forget." Jacob Reeves and Olivia Wilde were never supposed to work together. He was the quiet, brooding type - the guy who kept his guard up and his feelings buried deeper than anyone could reach. She was all passion and fire, a hopeless romantic who believed that love could fix anything. So when they were forced to team up for a college project about love, it felt like a cruel joke. Their meetings were full of sarcasm, stubborn arguments, and frustrated sighs. He thought she was too idealistic. She thought he didn't have a heart. But late nights have a way of breaking down walls. Between stacks of notes and too many cups of coffee, their conversations began to shift. The project became an excuse to stay longer, to talk about things that had nothing to do with school - dreams, fears, regrets, and everything in between. Somewhere between the bickering and the laughter, Jacob and Olivia fell for each other. Not in a perfect, movie-scene kind of way, but in a real way - messy, unexpected, and impossible to control. But timing has never been kind to them. Life pulled them in different directions - heartbreaks, ambitions, and choices they couldn't undo. Still, what they shared never truly faded. It lingered in every memory, every "what if," every song that reminded them of what once was. Because some love stories don't end - they echo. And theirs? It's the kind you never forget, no matter how far you run.

I Hate Football Players

61 parts Complete Mature

Football players are assholes. I know - my brother is their king. Older and annoyingly overprotective, he's the star quarterback at Santa Cruz High School. I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life. Logan Hightower is a total player who expects me to drool at his feet while he uses me to burn my brother's game. If he thinks I'll fall for his gorgeous looks and shallow charms, he's totally mistaken. He'll never succeed because I hate football players. Note: Some of the chapters have mature content, as marked.
