Three souls. One collision. A love that was never meant to be simple.

𝐄𝐫𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐜𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥
Erin has always kept her world orderly. Running an elite educational institution by day, pouring her heart into novels by night. But beneath her polished exterior lies a quiet storm of loneliness and grief she keeps hidden from everyone. Until one unexpected night splinters her perfectly curated world.

𝐍𝐨𝐚𝐡 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧
Noah is a therapist who thrives on stability and control. Calm, Grounded and Domineering in the ways that matter. He wasn't looking for a patient or a lover but Erin's vulnerability calls to something deeper within him. He wants to heal her, hold her and never let her go.

𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐬
Then there's Chris who is witty, wildly successful architect with a swagger that masks a soul as broken as hers. He's everything Noah isn't. Chaotic, irreverent, dangerously charming. And somehow, he sees Erin in a way no one else ever has.

Thrown together by circumstance, the three form an unlikely, fragile bond. What starts as emotional refuge turns into something far more powerful and far more complicated. 

Love. Desire. Trust. Jealousy. Secrets. Healing.

But when old wounds resurface and their bond is tested, they'll each have to choose. Whether to run from the storm or become each other's anchor.Todos os Direitos Reservados

Love We Never Said, de Angelinhell15

They were never meant to fall in love. Ava White and Kevin Ashton were born into two empires at war-rivals in business, heirs to legacies built on competition and silence. In college, they were just Kevin and Ava-two hearts laughing in shared secrets, two souls who fit too easily. But timing was cruel. And love doesn't always arrive when you're free to choose it. Kevin fell for Stella Ross-sunshine, gentle love, soft promises. And Ava hid her feelings behind smiles, jokes, pink dresses, and the name she whispered for him only in her diary: Teddy. One drunken night after graduation changed everything. One wedding shattered what was left. And one accident destroyed the world they thought was safe. Now grief ties them closer than love ever did. Ava is the only one who can pull Kevin out of the darkness. Kevin is the only one who sees the pain Ava tries to bury. They heal each other slowly-quiet mornings, shared breaths, wounds stitched with laughter and tears. But the world still sees them as enemies. And the media is already asking questions. How long can two broken hearts hide the one thing they never stopped feeling? This is not a love story that begins with falling. It begins with waiting, breaking, returning- and finally, choosing. Content/Trigger Warning: This story contains scenes of violence, and mentions death and suicide attempt

Enemies to lovers , de Abbie20js

Olivia and Evan met on the first day of college-and hated each other instantly. She thought he was arrogant; he thought she was uptight. But fate had other plans. Through awkward encounters, accidental proximity, and undeniable tension, their animosity turned to something more complicated: attraction. Over time, Olivia found herself falling for Evan-just as he started flaunting a new relationship. Heartbroken, she pulled away. But Evan noticed. Curious, then concerned, he began digging beneath Olivia's carefully built walls. When the truth finally surfaced, they faced it head-on-sparking the start of something raw and real between them. What followed was a slow-burning love story: from a painful breakup with Evan's girlfriend to quiet, intimate moments that bonded them deeply. As they navigated their final year of college, insecurities crept in-but so did laughter, shared dreams, and growing love. Graduation pulled them apart, and long-distance tested everything they had built. But visits, job changes, and one grand decision brought them back into the same city-and back into each other's lives for good. From moving in together to starting careers, their love deepened in the rhythm of everyday life. But love wasn't always smooth. Career crossroads and personal challenges-including fertility struggles-shook their foundation. Still, they chose each other, over and over again. Through engagement, steamy nights, wedding vows, and a honeymoon in Italy, Olivia and Evan learned that love isn't about perfect timing-it's about presence. Their marriage blossomed through laughter, vulnerability, and quiet resilience. Even when the future brought uncertainty-like the possibility of not having children From enemies to soulmates, All the Ways We Stay is a deeply emotional, often tender story about two people who choose love-over heartbreak, over distance, over time. A story that proves forever doesn't arrive all at once. It's built, one ordinary moment at a time.

Finding Obsidian, de RavensFlyAway

He brushed his lips against my jaw, his dark hair falling over his brow. "Open your eyes," he commanded. "Look at me." I followed his orders and looked into the raven-black depths before me. I saw my entranced gaze reflected in his glaring one. "Tell me what you see." I kept on looking at him, searching for something, anything, that remained of the person he used to be. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. But his eyes were so dark, so empty . . . "Nothing. I see nothing," I whispered. He smirked, his gaze still on me. He pulled away, leaving me feeling cold. "Exactly. You see nothing - that's because there's nothing there." ** How much can a person change in just three years? Short and full of fiery spirit, Hanna Jordan is a gifted college student who is enrolled in one of the most prestigious culinary programs in the country. She's just returned from three years of study in France and is anxious to reconnect with her longtime friend, Rian Aronhalt. However, when she does finally see him, she's startled to find that he's become an entirely different person. Cold, ill-tempered, and exceptionally attractive, Rian is absolutely nothing like his old self. Worst of all, he claims he doesn't even remember her. Despite their differences, both are haunted by dark memories of the past, which form a poisonous bond between Hanna and Rian that neither can escape from. Can they both heal from the scars time left behind, and find love in the process?

Breaking, de RaeganSalander

The edited version of this story is now available on Kindle . But this is the Raw version and you are welcome to it. Jenna Bradshaw's life looks perfect from the outside-a comfortable home, a successful husband, and two grown children. But beneath the surface, her world is crumbling. Over decades of quiet sacrifices, Jenna has lost herself, her voice drowned out by a loveless marriage, dismissive children, and the judgment of her husband's elitist family. She has become invisible in her own life, a shadow of the hopeful young artist she once was. When her best friend Sasha tragically dies in a car accident, leaving behind two foster children, Jenna is forced to confront the harsh truths of her existence. While taking on the care of Leah and Dylan, Jenna begins a journey of self-discovery and renewal, reigniting her passion for art and finding strength in her independence. However, her decision to walk away from her marriage is met with resistance from her husband, Troy, and their children, who fail to see the quiet pain she has endured for years. As Jenna builds a new life, she learns to confront her past, embrace her grief, and reclaim her identity. Along the way, she discovers that resilience lies in allowing herself to be vulnerable and in daring to demand the love and respect she deserves. Will Troy learn his lesson or is this goodbye forever?

A Scar Of Our Own (Now available on Amazon ), de Creesey1234

Allegra Westbrook thought she had forever. She and her husband were inseparable since their first year of college-best friends, lovers, soulmates. But forever shattered the night a car accident stole him away, leaving her a widow at just twenty-six, raising their infant son alone in a city where every street carried his memory. Desperate to breathe again, she packs up her life in London and crosses the ocean, searching for a place where her grief doesn't suffocate her. Isaac Molten knows fire, loss, and survival. For six years, he's run headfirst into flames as a small-town firefighter, saving lives even as he failed to save the only one who mattered most. His fiancée-his best friend since childhood-died just weeks before their wedding. Now thirty-one, Isaac lives with a hollow chest and a family that fears he'll burn himself out before he lets anyone in again. When Allegra and her son settle in Isaac's tight-knit Georgia town, neither is looking for love. What they find instead is recognition-in the way silence lingers, in the way grief leaves its mark, in the way scars can mirror each other across oceans. But falling for each other means facing the guilt of moving on, the whispers of a town that remembers too much, and the terror of losing again. Raw, heartbreaking, and redemptive, A Scar of Our Own is a story of second chances, of finding light in the ashes, and of learning that scars don't disappear-sometimes, they're what hold us together.

Half of My Heart ✔️, de koolkenz

how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems. One: her older brother goes to the same college, and it seems like he's everywhere, keeping her from doing everything she hoped to do as a college freshman. Two: her brother's devastatingly handsome best friend also seems hell-bent on ruining her college experience . . . but in a different way. Their paths keep crossing, and Scarlett is reminded of the powerful attraction that they've both ignored for far too long. Not to mention, a new face begins to occupy everyday Scarlett's thoughts. When Scarlett is paired with an allusive, darkly handsome stranger for a film project, her world begins to open in ways she never thought possible. But as his mystery unravels into dark secrets, she wonders if she's falling a bit too hard. Before long, Scarlett is forced to realize that balancing the hearts of two boys at once just might result in the breaking of her own.
