Éabha Holland grew up learning to tiptoe--around glass on the floor, around her father's moods, around a kind of love that hurt as much as it held her. She's running out of ways to stay numb. Her dad's addiction taught her how to disappear; hers might finish the job.
AJ Lynch has his own shadows--a family name that carries both pride and wreckage, a temper that burns too hot, and a soft spot for the girl who never learned to ask for help.

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-

Be still, my heart." For the first time all day, Joey's mouth twitched - the ghost of a smile he refused to give her.

For Joey Lynch, the world was never anything but a rotten, cruel battlefield. Born on a holiday meant for light, he was instead forged in the darkness of an abusive legacy, forced to become a protector before he was even a boy. He is a creature of trauma and raw survival, forever battling the seductive, drowning pull of addiction that promises a final escape. But there has always been a light in the dark for him. Just a singular, defiant spark: Estella, his sister's best friend. She is a magnificent anomaly, a walking, breathing sunbeam in his grime-coated life. Her hair is a shock of bright, liquid silver, catching the light like spilled moonlight, framing a face that is dizzyingly, charmingly cute. Her eyes, wide and unnerving, are the colour of molten silver.When she stares up at Joey, meeting his trauma-hardened gaze with her impossible luminosity and a cheeky, uncompromising grin, he knows: she is trouble. The necessary kind. He has lost everything: his peace, his innocence, his stability. But she is the one thing that can never slip away. Not when he snarls and retreats like a cornered animal; she simply stares, her bright eyes unsettlingly steady, and deploys that silly, confident grin. God, he is putty in her hands. The temptation between them is a physical, humming wire, stretched taut for years. But when they finally give in-when the shadow reaches for the light, and the light does not pull away-things dare to take a turn for the worse. As Joey fights his darkest demons, trying to fend off his violent father and the relentless grip of addiction, he discovers that the girl who glows has been quietly burning, too. They need to decide if this fierce, hard-won love can genuinely tame all the anger and war within them... ... and if a single, silver light is truly the answer to all the world's rot.

Trusting 10||boys of tommen
Anna Lynch was fucking petrified of men. Not just uncomfortable- terrified.She'd flinch if one of us so much as walked too close. She was always keeping herself pressed to walls, eyes darting for exits like she was planning an escape. And it wasn't just the loud ones or the gobshites. Even Johnny Kavanagh-her sisters boyfriend -made her recoil. That's when it really hit me. This wasn't nerves. This was trauma, stitched into every muscle in her body. The only lads she wasn't afraid of were her brothers-Joey and Darren. She stuck to them like her life depended on it, like they were the only two people in the world who'd never let her down. The rest of us? We were threats until proven otherwise #1-hughbiggs #1-chilhoodtrauma #1-mentalhealth #1-mutismComplete

In her, he finds something real. Something raw. And as he begins to uncover the layers of the girl everyone overlooks, he finds himself captivated by the very imperfections she's been taught to hide.
