Gracie's world shattered the day she lost her parents. Now every choice she makes feels heavy with guilt, every smile borrowed from a life she no longer believes she deserves. Love, she decides, is far too dangerous-too fragile a thing for someone already broken.

Then she meets Harry. He's gentle where her heart is scarred, patient where her fear runs deepest. Being with him feels almost like healing... almost like happiness. But to Gracie, happiness feels like betrayal.

Caught between the shadows of her past and the fragile possibility of a future, Gracie must decide: will she let grief keep her chained, or risk everything to let love in?All Rights Reserved

And Still, I loved you. by ruins_and_roses

They were never supposed to meet again, but fate had other plans. They were never strangers. They just became people who knew everything about each other, Except how to fix what they broke.

But silence never erased the way they ended. And when fate threw them back into the same room, One bleeding, Other one breaking, The past didn't knock. It kicked the door down. This is not a story of falling in love. It's what happens after.

Maybe Someday [ON-GOING] by glaiza0525

She loved him for as long as she could remember. He was her childhood best friend-her first and only love. But to him, she was just a friend. Nothing more. Years passed, and still, her feelings stayed the same... even when he didn't feel the same way. It was a one-sided love she never gave up on. Through high school, through college, she kept hoping. Wishing. Waiting. Until after graduation... something changed. But sometimes, love comes too late. And some stories don't get the happy ending they deserve. "Maybe someday... he would love her too. But maybe someday... is not today."

Gone Him Waiting Her by missv_fantasy

She was his first love. The girl who knew his laughter, his dreams, his fears. The one he swore he'd never let go of. Until one day, he did. Without warning. Without goodbye. He was her everything. Her first kiss. Her first heartbreak. The boy who carried her heart in his hands- and then shattered it when he disappeared. Years passed. Wounds turned into scars. She learned to live with the silence he left behind. He learned to live with the regret of leaving her. Now, fate has thrown Mason and Ella together again- in the most unexpected place, on the most ordinary day. But nothing about seeing each other feels ordinary. It feels like the past rushing back. It feels like the pieces of a love story trying to fit again. But can she trust him after the way he left? And can he prove that this time, he's here to stay? Because sometimes love doesn't end. Sometimes, it waits.

A Bloom After Winter by Ms_WinterB

She thought she understood love. Until love became pain. After being hurt more than once, she stopped believing in second chances. Her heart was guarded, her smile no longer reached her eyes and she promised herself never to fall again. Then he came along. He was different. Patient. Kind. Unexpected. But after everything she'd been through, how could she believe in love again? A story about heartbreak, healing, and the quiet power of someone who chooses to stay - even when it's hard.

His Nightingale by WYLD_ROSE

Book 1 of the Jackson Series! Ella finally gets an opportunity to escape the clutches of her cruel tormentor before fate leads her to Ryder Jackson. Broken and bruised, she soon finds comfort in Ryder who is equally as hesitant to wear his heart on his sleeve. Both have pasts that they just want to forget and souls that need healing. Will they be able to move on together or will history catch up to them? *** I smile shyly and move closer to his face as my eyes sneak a peek at his lips. Meeting his gaze that has darkened with desire I curl my fingers around his collar and pull him closer. "Now, are you going to kiss me?" "Yes." He nods before leaning in until his lips are a breath away. I pull back which makes him groan in frustration. "Promise to never let me go?" It happens in a blur. His lips descend on mine in a hungry yet passionate kiss filled with longing. I whimper softly when his teeth bite down on my bottom lip and coax me to give in. And, I do. His tongue meets mine as we explore each other, tasting and savoring. I tangle my fingers in his hair and tug slightly which makes him kiss me feverishly. It's like he almost doesn't want this moment to end no matter how much air is becoming a matter of priority. I pull away first, dazed still. He follows and his lips trail over the heated skin of my neck, kissing across my jawline, teasing the corner of my lips before nibbling on my earlobe. I'm a mess as I crave more of his addictive touch. I feel like I'm flying. "I promise to never let you go, Ella."
