How To Love by BlackoutParadise

Two broken souls. One city that forgot them. She's barely surviving. He's tired of pretending. But when pain meets pain-will it heal, or destroy? Tianna Kaliah Smith has nothing but her siblings and a dream. At just 18, she's been mother and father to two toddlers since her world fell apart-when her daddy went to prison and her mama ran off without looking back. In the heart of Detroit, she's doing hair in a run-down apartment, scraping by, making hard choices just to keep her little brother and sister fed. Kayden Jiovanni Wright is 20 and cold to the world. With no family, a cheating girlfriend, and a block soaked in blood and broken promises, he plays the game to survive-selling dope by night, fronting as a corner store worker by day. He's tired. He's angry. And he's searching for something real, even if he won't admit it. When Tianna and Kayden collide at the corner store over a pack of chips her baby brother can't stop reaching for, the spark is small-but enough. Enough to unravel secrets, tear down walls, and start a fire neither of them saw coming. But love in a city like this? It comes with a cost. And some costs bleed deep.

No One Sees. by KAubrie

Calla thought a new town meant a new start. But Pine Ridge has a way of turning hope into something cruel. Her mom's smiles are fake. Her stepdad's affection is unsettling. Behind closed doors, her home hides more than it shows. At school, the line between friend and enemy blurs fast, and as whispers turn to rumors, and kindness turns to inhumanity, Calla's grip on control begins to slip. Secrets surface. Lies spread. And the people around her? They watch, helpless-or indifferent. Raw. Real. Unforgiving. No One Sees is a dark coming-of-age story about trauma, girlhood, and the pain people look away from. ***TRIGGER WARNING*** This story contains themes and depictions of trauma, bullying, emotional abuse, sexual harassment, mental illness, and suicide.
