Love Letters I Never Sent by penandprayer_

"He said I was too much... but maybe I was just too real." She loved like the songs she cried to at night - deeply, hopelessly, and always a little too soon. He was the kind of boy who said forever but meant maybe. And she? She believed him. This is not just a love story. It's a story about falling too hard, begging for pieces of someone who was already gone, and learning that sometimes, letting go isn't weakness - it's power. This novel is for every girl who had to choose herself after being someone's almost.

Fractured Hearts by untitledliar

In a world where promises are as fragile as glass, Micah Grimaldi never expected hers to break so suddenly. After a betrayal that redefines what it means to trust, she finds herself carrying the weight of a secret-one that ties her to a past she can't ignore and a future she's still learning to face. Back in the comfort of the familiar, surrounded by the quiet presence of those who care, Micah begins to piece herself together again. As old dreams fall away and new realities take shape, she learns that healing isn't loud-it's slow, quiet, and deeply personal. This is a story of resilience, of finding strength in the people who stay, and of realizing that starting over doesn't mean starting from nothing.

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."

What We Never Said by TheCactusDiary

They were constants in each other's lives - the late-night study sessions, the quiet walks between classes, the endless group projects that somehow always ended with just the two of them. Somewhere between friendship and something more, he learned what it meant to feel too much, and she learned the weight of being someone's safe place. But when honesty collided with hesitation, their bond became a fragile balance between what was said, and what was left unsaid. A story about friendship, longing, and the ache of almost.

And In The End by DaniellaOth

She gave up her career, her dreams, and everything she was.. for a love that promised forever. But forever was a lie. When the truth shatters her perfect world, Amara is left with nothing. No husband. No job. Not even the son she gave up everything to raise. Everyone thinks she's broken. But they forgot one thing. You can't bury a woman who remembers who she is. And in the end... he may have walked away, but she's the one who survived. Trigger Warning: This story dives deep into grief, heartbreak, and the raw, unfiltered emotions that come with loss. Because healing is never a straight line.

Breaking by 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?

Noah (5th Street series) by elizabethreyes__

Veronica Cruz has been through hell and back. After disconnecting with the world two years ago to be at the side of her dying mother, she's left alone, unemployed, overweight, and feeling a decade older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend coaxes her into joining the local gym to ditch her depression and rejuvenate her life, she meets Noah. Assigned to help Veronica lose weight, Noah is everything she expected a young trainer to be-perfectly chiseled, supportive and motivating. Add to that, he's incredibly sexy. He's everything she's ever looked for in a man. What she least expected was for him to fall for her, but he has. There's just one glaring problem: Noah is eight years younger. Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title-someday. Down for a few months with an injury, his maintenance-boy pay at 5th Street Gym won't cut it. He's finally given the opportunity to train. The catch? His trainee is an out-of-shape woman with a free week pass. Taking on the challenge, Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships he's ever known, and before he knows it, he's in love. But Veronica's not having it-the age difference is too much. Their platonic relationship means having to watch her date other men-something that would make him crazy. Believing he's the man for her, Noah sets out to prove that age is but an illusion, and there's more to him than just a number.

Fragments of Forever by onem12

They were just kids when it all began. Back when summer afternoons felt endless, laughter echoed louder, and love was something innocent, fragile, and unspoken, when a single glance across the schoolyard felt like forever. Chris Sinclair never believed in happy endings. Not when his world at home was built on slammed doors, whispered fights, and the quiet ache of being unseen. But then came Mason Taylor, his best friend since first grade, the boy who became his anchor when everything else was falling apart. And with Mason came Yasmin. His twin. His sunlight. The girl who made the darkness bearable without even knowing it. Through childhood, through growing pains, through years of unspoken feelings, Chris held on to the pieces of her, the stolen smiles, the quiet moments, the memories that shaped them. To him, Yasmin was forever. But forever is fragile. And when one mistake threatens to unravel everything, Yasmin, Mason, Sophie, the friendships that built their world, Chris is forced to face the truth: Sometimes, all it takes is a single crack for forever to fall apart. Now, he must decide if he's willing to fight for the one person who's always been his light... Or watch as the pieces of what they once had scatter beyond repair. Because when love breaks, it doesn't disappear. It lingers, in the fragments.

When We Were Almost by Smalix39

Sarah Delgado never meant to fall for Alvin Reyes. He was her senior by one year, two seats away in art class, and miles away in the world he carried behind his eyes. She didn't know what it was about him maybe the way he wrote in the margins of his notebook like his heart bled in ink, or the silence he wore like armor but she knew she wanted to know him. Alvin wasn't looking for love. He wasn't looking for anything, really just a way to get through the days without falling apart. But Sarah had a way of noticing him, the real him, beneath everything he tried to hide. And maybe that was the beginning of everything and of the slow undoing that followed. When We Were Almost is a story of first love, quiet battles, written from both Sarah's and Alvin's pov. The spaces between words left unsaid.....
