asl awareness deaf deafness fiction lesbian lgbt lgbtqa romance

Cameron Adele wasn't born deaf, but Elois Limboe was. After months of being apart, the two are brought back together, only this time, the tables have turned. Elois has gotten cochlear implants, and Cameron lost her mother and her hearing in an accident, while her younger sister remains in a comatose state. Cameron has lost Elois once before, and she's lost so much more along the way. This time, she is unwilling to give up. This story follows Cameron's journey as she comes to terms with herself and what it really means to be deaf. In a world where labels such as "Disabled" are stuck onto her, Cameron begins to believe it herself. It takes Elois, Family, Friends, and a little bit of light to show Cameron that her disability gives her abilities that "Normal" people could never dream to have.  "A Different World" is a story of acceptance and recovery and the struggles of adapting to new worlds.

Deaf [Adrienette AU] by eminole

She lived with her mother and father Nantes, a city in France. She was no different from your average girl. She went to school, she had friends. She was always happy and healthy, never letting anything bring her down. But one day, her life decided to take an unexpected turn. Being placed in an accident isn't fun. At seven years old, her fathers life was taken from her. But it wasn't just her father, it was also her hearing. Now severely deaf, she struggled to live out the life of a deaf girl. So many things had been taken from her throughout the span of a night. But moving to Paris seemed like a new opportunity, even if her father wasn't there to experience it with her. But would she ever manage to survive as a deaf girl in a hearing world? ー WARNING: this book can contain triggering topics for some readers. Read at caution.

Two Heartbeats on One Page by In-Decent-Pause

Jordan's in love with two people (who are in love with each other), he hasn't spoken to his parents in five years, and despite working almost sixty hours a week, he's still ages away from having enough to pay for the three surgeries he needs to complete his gender confirmation. This would be a problem anywhere, but particularly so in small-town, homophobic Arizona. He needs a vacation. Darcey's been discharged from the Army after knowing nothing else for eight years, he's unemployed, and, at twenty-seven years old, he has no choice but to move back in with his parents. Since his discharge was dishonorable, he doesn't even have health insurance to treat his PTSD. He just needs some time to get back on his feet and reconnect with his family. Instead, they find each other. When Jordan takes Darcey home from a party, they mean it to be a one-night stand, but they turn out to be too compatible to want to give each other up. Neither wants a relationship, but a straightforward, no-strings-attached friends-with-benefits setup will keep things nice and neat, right? Nope. Instead, everything gets messier. The third and final book in the Holding Our Hearts In Our Hands series. Cover by the super talented MargaretSmoke! Thank you!: https://www.wattpad.com/user/MargaretSmoke

Listen to the Water | FULL SERIES | Wattys 2022 Shortlist | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

[FULL KELS SERIES] When Ande wakes up on the bottom of the ocean with a fish's tail, she's not sure what she did wrong. Getting sacrificed by her island is a likely bet, but why---and why her---is a mystery. Out of her depth in an unfamiliar world, she soon finds herself wrapped up in the society of the Kels, the people who live under the sea. Desperate to get back to her island, she strikes an agreement with a squid-tailed boy whose sunny smile and knowledge of her language are a welcome assistance at first. Soon, though, she begins to sense that he's hiding something. Things take a turn for the worse when her way home gets complicated by the Kels' wars and several eerie myths about her people that may not be myths at all. The history of the Kels goes back farther than her own culture, and the harder she struggles to get back to land, the more the question arises: Does she belong in the water after all? ❖❖❖ Marked mature for darker themes and scenes, not spicy content.

Morgan by SPenBooks

Morgan *completed* A filler between (book 4-5) of the Alberta series. Morgan Keaton...unlucky in love, that is an absolute understatement. I'm cursed, beyond cursed and I should never, ever, look for it again. But love has a way of finding you... Don't miss the signs, they are always there, my own advice and yet I saw them and ignored them... Signs that love was finding its way into my life at a point in time I had given up looking for it, didn't want it and was trying to avoid it. Isn't that what they always say?! Love comes knocking when you stop looking or least expect it. Well it knocked, and it had a name, long legs, a beautiful smile and killer game. I guess this is the story of a love that had been long waited for... the one for me, the keeper... a love that would last the distance. A love my ex wife didn't want me to have, because if I wasn't hers, I wasn't anyones. Can it still find a way? When all the odds are against it... ⚠️ emotional/ physical abuse triggers warning ⚠️ *Completed July 2022* *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE*

Love, Taylor | TS by ireallylikekiwis

Dear Rory, I'm sorry about what I said. I'm leaving for LA in two days. Can we talk before then, please? We can just drive around as usual. I don't know how to do this if you're upset with me. Call me please. I'm staying at my parents' house. Love, Taylor *** Aurora Taylor has been living her best life for the past ten years or so. She works for Odyssey, a travel magazine based in New York City, New York, where she gets to go on dozens of trips a year to the most beautiful corners on earth to write articles about her journey. When she's not travelling, she also dabbles in fiction writing, a little secret passion of hers only few people know about. When the pressure of her two jobs gets a little too hard to manage, she decided to take a week off in a beautiful town at the beach in Northern Italy. A week full of unadulterated fun and relaxation, with unlimited glasses of chilled Prosecco and gelato cones. Or, so she thought. Her plans are completely ruined when she runs into someone she never thought she would ever see again. Not in person at least. A ghost from her past. Taylor Swift. Thirteen years and the universe decides to throw them together in a random town in Italy. Taylor does not believe that it is a coincidence. Aurora is a little reluctant to believe it. But thirteen years is a hard number for Taylor to ignore and she is adamant on making things right with the writer who finds it hard to forgive and forget all that was said and done thirteen years ago. *** This story is entirely my work of fiction. All characters and fictional places are from my own imagination except for real celebrities.
