Painted Sins by larryziamlulu

Some boys run from the fire. Kai West was born in it. Eighteen and half-wild, Kai's got fists that don't quit and a past full of bruises he can't scrub clean. When a court-ordered community mural project throws him into the orbit of Leo - a calm, fiercely kind twenty-five-year-old artist with a history of heartbreak - Kai expects to hate every second. Except Leo doesn't scare easy. He doesn't flinch from Kai's rage or his scars. And that pisses Kai off...until it doesn't. Until it starts to feel like maybe someone sees him for the first damn time. Leo knows better than to cross the line with the volatile kid whose eyes burn like storms, but the rules don't stand a chance against a connection this raw. As color spills across broken walls, Kai and Leo bleed for each other - through shame, desire, and every devastating truth that comes between them. In a world that calls him a lost cause, Kai is about to learn what it means to choose love, even when it terrifies him. Raw. Gritty. Slow-burn and breathtaking. Painted Sins will brand itself on your heart - and never let go.

Let Love Win by love_and_affection

Hadley Brian has been in jail more often than the average person and is proud to say that she still holds the top average in her entire musical arts program at the University of California. On top of all that, she manages to keep the secret of living under the care of an orphanage. She's been there as far back as she can remember and yet still the only other person who knows is her best friend Mel. Newcomer Zeek, like the typical guy in this neck of the woods, grows attracted to Hadley. But not for her looks or because of her willingness to put out, but for her musical talent and love for life. Unfortunately, there's one part of her that Zeek never saw coming through the front that Hadley puts up. An unexpected run in on a day out brings Hadley to the biggest decision she's ever had to make: let him in, or cast him out. The answer has always been the same but when it comes to Zeek and the unmistakeable pull that he ultimately has on her, she seems to be doing everything differently. No matter what the answer to her problem is, the question still remains whether or not she will throw out the last 18 years of her life never knowing what love really is, and give it a chance long enough to let love win. *references made to writing original songs but I DO NOT OWN THE SONGS AT ALL*

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

She's determined to seek him out and go live with him down on the West Coast, where he has a temporary job. The last thing April expects is almost being hit by a car. The owner of the vehicle? Her classmate, Dave Rivera, a troubled boy whom she almost never talked to before, and who can't be more different than her.

C.L.O.S.E HEARTS (Book 3) by CammyDen12

Elias and Alexander have spent the last few years tangled in each other's orbit, their love steady and unshaken. But as the future looms closer, the reality of change begins to settle between them. Elias has finally found his path-art. It's always been a part of him, but now he's ready to make it his future. He dreams of studying at an art school, of creating something lasting. Alexander, on the other hand, is still searching. With everyone around him settling into their ambitions, he feels stuck, torn between expectations and a desire for something he hasn't quite figured out yet. When Elias is given the opportunity to spend time in a small artist village east of their countryside town, it feels like fate. A chance to grow, to learn, to connect with other artists. But distance is a fickle thing, and leaving Alexander behind-even for a little while-feels heavier than he expected. In the village, Elias meets Leo, another young artist whose work is as intense as the walls he keeps up. At first, Leo is cold, unwilling to let Elias in. But as they spend time together, painting side by side, Leo's guarded nature begins to crack. He shares pieces of himself through his art-memories of a past he can't escape, pain etched into every brushstroke. Their bond grows, built on understanding and creativity, leaving Elias torn between admiration and the echoes of home pulling at his heart. Meanwhile, Alexander struggles with Elias's absence more than he expected. The quiet of their town feels different without him. He finds himself thinking too much, questioning everything-what he wants, where he's going, who he'll be without Elias by his side every second of the day. And with the possibility of them attending different schools in the near future, the uncertainty gnaws at him. As both boys navigate their own journeys-one of artistic discovery, the other of self-realization-they're faced with the biggest question of all: Can love stay the same when everything else is changing?

Connections | ✔️ by CxTannir

[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.
