Elmcrest is beautiful. Too beautiful. Its pastel streets, coordinated homes, and quiet rituals feel like a dream - or a warning.

Brooklyn and Noah arrive seeking a fresh start. Brooke curates the town's perfection through her freelance event and social media work, while Noah trains athletes at the local high school. But the town's obsession with balance, ritual, and order is subtle, pervasive, and suffocating.

Pets are revered. Children are raised with purpose. Every gesture is watched, every misstep noted. The residents smile, but the smiles are uniform, rehearsed - almost mechanical.

As Elmcrest's rhythm begins to unravel, the couple discovers that the town's perfection hides something far darker than they could imagine. In a place where curiosity can be dangerous and love is both a shield and a risk, survival requires cunning, trust, and an unwavering bond.

"Chaos rots communities. Order preserves them."

Temporarily Mine by SlyWords

Fake. That's what we are. That's what we agreed to be. I thought it would be harder, convincing everyone our school's star receiver was mine and mine alone, but we played our parts well. So well, the lines between us began to blur until they disappeared completely. The thing about pretending, though, someone's always better at it, and by the time I realized my mistake, there was no going back. I fell for our lie. And then everything fell apart. It turned out he and I were never playing the same game. He didn't have to break me to win. But he did it anyway. (Herophine Adaptation)

The Popular Girl by stephpanda

Looking at him from across the cafeteria my heart just stops. He bites his lower lip slightly as he reads the following words off of his new book, adjusting his hair from time to time. How can someone you've spent all of high school trying to forget still be the one to hold your heart?.. Stop staring! I look away and my eyes focus on something else... He's still the one I love. After all this time. I can't change that.. But he hates you. I wince at the thoughts coursing through me. You don't know that for sure.. Oh who am I kidding? Of course he hates me. If I was him I'd hate me too. A frown makes its way onto my face. Maybe just one more peek.. I glance back at him only to see his blue eyes no longer on the pages of his book but on me. We lock eyes and everything else disappears for a moment. My brown ones widen in shock. Shit! I try to look away but my eyes stay focused on him, and only him. ..Then something amazing happens.. He smiles. *currently editing some chapters* (This is sort of like the prologue. It is not in the book though. I wrote this so that you all can read it and see what's in store for this book. And I suck at descriptions so this is all I could think of. Also I curse a lot so yeah) (#14 in teen fiction)
Ashes Of The Withering by Evergreen_GL_Pine
19 parts Ongoing
Rosette Jordan's life has always been ordinary - quiet days in a small bookshop, surrounded by stories she'll never live. That all changes the moment a mysterious, untitled book arrives. Drawn by curiosity, she opens it... and falls into a world twisted by a curse called the Withering. Forests bleed ash. Creatures move like nightmares. The land itself seems alive, watching, remembering. In this world of danger and shadows, Rosette meets Prince James - someone marked by secrets, scars, and magic that comes at a cost. Together, they must navigate a kingdom on the brink of collapse, where trust is fragile, every choice carries consequences, and even friendship could be deadly. But the deeper Rosette ventures, the more she realizes the truth: she may have been brought here for a purpose she doesn't want - and surviving may mean losing everything she thought she knew about life, loyalty, and herself.

Luken Hunt is a virgin. A 23 year-old, NHL-playing, star-forward virgin. He's spent years dodging the post-game parties, the groupies, the endless opportunities that come with being a pro athlete. He's too focused on hockey, too awkward, too... completely out of his depth when it comes to women. Then Brooklyn Launder walks into his life. Sharp, stunning, and absolutely off-limits, she's the sports reporter who's seen it all-cocky athletes, bad pickup lines, and men who think they can charm their way into her life. But Luken? He's different. And when a flustered interview of his goes viral, turning the league's most unapproachable player into everyone's favorite bashful hockey heartthrob, Brooklyn finds herself just as intrigued as the rest of the internet. So when he confesses he's never even been kissed properly, Brooklyn makes a proposition-a few lessons. Just to help him out. A kiss here, a little guidance there. Nothing serious. Until the first lesson turns into two. Then three. And suddenly, Luken is learning fast-not just how to kiss, but how to touch, tease, and drive Brooklyn absolutely insane. But with the media watching, a locker room full of relentless teammates, and a career that demands all of him, Luken has to decide if he's ready to risk it all-for the one thing he's never had. A slow-burn, forbidden, scorching-hot hockey romance where the shy, virgin hockey star gets the ultimate education-and the woman he never saw coming. 𓅷 [SMUT Warning] [18+ Mature Audiences] Don't copy my work I will find you 🔪 4/14/25 1 in #sports 1 in friendswithbenefits 1 in hockey 1 in badgirlgoodboy 1 in nhlhockey 1 in nhlfanficton
