Niamh Lynch is used to surviving. She's the girl with fire in her blood, fists always clenched, and walls built so high no one dares to look over them - not even her twin brother, Joey. Between school fights, late shifts, and raising her younger siblings in a house ruled by silence and bruises, Niamh doesn't have time for softness. Or love. Or hope. She's burning herself out to keep everyone else warm.
Then there's Gerard Gibson.
Loud, ridiculous, golden-hearted Gibsie - the boy who makes people laugh without trying, who hides his own cracks behind chaos. He shouldn't see her. But he does. And worse, he stays. Even when Niamh gives him every reason not to.
This is a story about broken kids from broken homes, about anger and tenderness, violence and healing. It's about finding light in the wreckage - not because you believe you deserve it, but because someone refuses to stop giving it to you.
Niamh doesn't believe in love.
But Gibsie never needed her to.

FRANKLIN HOUSE - Tadhg Lynch
Tadhg Lynch has never liked Niamh Gallagher-not in primary school when her life seemed perfect, and definitely not now at Tommen College. After his father's violent rampage tore his family apart, Niamh was one of the few who tried to be kind, but he lashed out, shutting her down. Years later, she's unrecognizable. Once warm, she's now the Ice Queen, untouchable and ruthless. Forced to be around her thanks to their best friends dating, Tadhg is thrown by her transformation. She's not the girl he resented, nor the one who pitied him-she's Frost, sharp-edged and cold. But beneath their bickering and hostility, something simmers. As tension builds, old wounds reopen, and neither can ignore the undeniable pull between them. Hate was easy. Wanting each other? That's dangerous.Complete

𝗕𝗢𝗬𝗦 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗘𝗡 | Euphemia "Effy" Lynch wasn't supposed to exist-at least not in the way her siblings did. Born of a one-night mistake and raised in the shadows of a loud, messy household, Effy has spent most of her life in silence. Quiet by nature, and quieter by necessity, she's the ghost of Ballylaggin Community School-bullied, broken, and invisible to most. Except her sister Shannon. Except her brothers. But everything changes when she transfers to Tommen College on a scholarship, hoping to disappear into the background of a new school. Instead, she catches the eye of Johnny Kavanagh-rugby captain, school golden boy, and the last person she expected to notice her. He's loud. She's silent. He burns. She buries. But somehow, he sees her. Really sees her. And Effy? For the first time in a long time, she wants to be seen. ׂ╰┈➤. johnny kavanagh x fem!oc on going -will update when i can published - aug 12, 2025 ended-
