The Secrets of Cedar Creek by aurora_rain

There's something right about Sylv. It's the way he makes Rose feel when he touches her. It's the way he can make her smile. It's the way they can be together for hours and still need more. But there's also something wrong. Rose shouldn't be feeling these things for Sylv. She shouldn't be feeling these things for her best friends boyfriend. But what happens when her best friend suddenly dies in an accident? What happens when the guilt doubles? What happens when rich and famous writer, Adrian Iris, comes to town? And what happens when the accident was never really an accident at all? It's hard finding out the truth. In Cedar Creek, everyone has a secret. | inspired by true events | ☾Completed☽ BEST RANKINGSSS #3 romance #3 love #3 drama #1 small town #1 bestfriendsboyfriend #1 murdermystery #1 accident #2 lovetriangle #2 friendship

Wind by AmyMarieZ

•• Wattys 2018 Winner •• Wattpad Featured Story •• One day, a wind blew into the town of Millstone and didn't stop. Slowly people moved away. It was like the town was trying to clear itself out, as though it was preparing for something sinister. When a strange man moves into town and purchases the old abandoned farmhouse on Clay Road, Harper suspects he might be up to something. As Harper and his best friend Jeremey investigate the man's activities, they end up discovering some frightening truths about their town, the newcomer, and the wind itself. But getting close to the truth comes with risks, and they soon find themselves in danger not only of the stranger on Clay Road, but also the dark forces within Millstone that have remained silent for too long. •• AWARDS •• 🥈2nd Place in Horror, The Chaos Awards (April 2018) 🥉3rd Place in Horror/Paranormal, The Literally Lit Literature Awards (May 2018) 🥈2nd Place in Horror/Paranormal, The Blossom Awards (June 2018) 🥈2nd Place in Horror/Paranormal, The Psychedelic Awards (July 2018) 🥉3rd place overall and best grammar, The X-Factor Awards Season 2 (August 2018) 🥇1st place in Horror, The Hidden Gem Awards 2018 (September 2018) 🏆 The Wattys 2018 Storysmiths Winner (October 2018) 🥇 1st Place in Horror/Paranormal, ILoveAwards (May 2019)

East by voyageur

/ complete / Life hasn't always been kind to East Winters, but for the most part, she's finally made peace with the incident three years ago that tore her family apart. The same can't be said for Edgecliff; half the town still won't look East in the eye, and the latest wave of petty crimes isn't helping. Two fires and a dead mom hardly prove her innocence. Even worse, Asher is back in town-but no matter how close they used to be, East can't forget what he did on that fateful night... As small incidents snowball into startling revelations, East begins to realize that there might be more to her family, more to her sleepy little town, more to even herself than she could've ever imagined. / best ranking: #25 in Paranormal / featured story in 2016, 2018 / Wattys 2018 longlist

Hidden Truths|✓ by PinkPreppyPerfect

When Olivia Parker is found dead at a high school party gone wrong, it seems obvious who her killer was. Wesley Owens was found next to her covered in blood. Obviously, he did it. The question was why. With the entire senior class attending the end of the year bash, it shouldn't have been that simple to get away with the crime. There had to be witnesses and alibis, especially in the tight-knit friend group found at the scene. Now, with the eyes of everyone on them, the group has to pick up their broken pieces and figure out what actually happened that night before one of them gets falsely accused. With each step closer to the truth, the friends start to get more and more hesitant to reveal the truth and start to realize no one seems to be innocent. (Featured on Wattpad Picks twice!) (Shortlisted for the 2018 Wattys!) In the process of a rewrite!
