Abigail D. Edgar - the dazzling first-year student everyone can't stop talking about. Brilliant, beautiful, and effortlessly graceful, she earns a full scholarship and the admiration of the entire campus. On her very first day, dozens of confessions come her way. But tired of being seen only as an ideal, Abigail silences the noise with one unexpected truth:
"I'm a lesbian."
The declaration stuns the school, turning whispers into silence. For once, Abigail feels free - no more unwanted attention, no more pretending. She buries herself in her architecture studies, convinced that love is no longer a part of her story.
Until she meets Cassy T. Lee - a girl who radiates warmth like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. Cassy's laughter, her kindness, her light - everything about her begins to pull Abigail in. Before she knows it, she's falling.
But love, as Abigail learns, is never simple. Cassy's heart seems to lean toward Nathan, a kind and respected second-year student whose strong faith and gentle soul set him apart. As Abigail tries to stay close to Cassy, she finds herself drawn into a web of emotion, faith, and unspoken truths - torn between understanding her rival and fighting for her own feelings.
Between love and belief, courage and heartbreak, Abigail must decide:
Will she defy the odds and follow her heart... or lose it to a world that was never ready for her love?

Finding Demi- A Novus Orsa Story
Jay is a bit of a misfit. In fact, if it was the 1950s, you may even call her a 'greaser' with her signature leather jacket and '78 Trans Am. She spends her days working as a drum and guitar teacher at the local music store, and her free time playing guitar in her garage band, Novus Orsa. Beneath the surface, though, she hides a secret that has nearly ruined her life once, already. You see, Jay is a closeted lesbian in a military town. Between her ultra conservative parents and the ever-swirling rumors caused by the betrayal of her ex-best friend, Jay is ready for her senior year to be over before it ever starts. On her first day, however, a chance encounter (or collision) changes the trajectory of her life. Demi is a transfer student, upset that her father's job has torn her away from the city, her boyfriend, and the life she knows. It hasn't been an easy adjustment to such a tiny, boring town, and she doesn't even have a car to get away.

Two worlds collide and what awaits her below has her reconsidering everything she thought about this town. *Note- This story takes place in 2010 and is loosely based on my own high school experience. The more I got into writing it, the more I realized how much has changed in 14 years.Complete

Driven to Distraction
Alex Thompson was due to marry her high school sweet heart Eric Ramirez. Period. That's it. It's about as exciting as her life ever got really. She had a job, a good job but an unconscious reality was that she was bored. She had her back blown out once every three months, if that, and an overbearing mother who made her life hell. *enter Mitch* Eve 'Mitch' Mitchell. An outgoing, strong minded, independent, raging homosexual, lover to all, charming British soul. They meet by accident after a tough day at the office for Alex. A mistaken identity was all it took for a tiny little kiss. A moment blown all out of proportion for the Christian-bred Miss Thompson and her life turns more miserable than she anticipated for every time she turned around...Mitch was there behind her. Something about Mitch was new and fresh and her soul was just what Alex needed (little did she know). Secrets from the past are brought to the surface. A sad ending to a young lady's life. A realisation that family isn't always blood related. Alcohol isn't a medicine. Violence isn't a key. Hearts were never meant to be broken. Two things to take away: you never know what is going on in someone's head and the most important thing...you never know what happens behind closed doors. A/N just a random story about two people who meet accidentally. Plays with gender norms and very inclusive of LGBTQ (being a member myself). Could be triggering I'm not sure as some identity questions are thrown around. It does include smoking, drinking, some homophobia, profanities, violence and smut. Also anything in brackets with A/N means authors note and that's just me leaving a little comment. Enjoy...Complete
