From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes the second standalone novel in the Barnett Bulldogs Series- Friend Zoned.

Is it wrong to suddenly find yourself crushing on your best friend?  The one person who has always been there for you?  I'm kind of thinking that it is.  What I know for sure is that absolutely no good can possibly come from it.  My relationships tend to expire long before the gallon of milk sitting idly in my fridge.  So why would I want to screw up the best relationship I've ever had?

No brainer- I wouldn't.  

And yet I still can't stop noticing the way his piercing blue eyes pin me right in place.  Or the unexpected urge I have to drag my fingers through his short thick blond hair.  And those killer abs I sometimes catch a fleeting glimpse of when he stretches that big muscular body of his next to me in class?  And don't even get me started on the way soft cottony t-shirts fit across his ridiculously broad shoulders...

Nope... I should most definitely not be noticing any of this.  Nor should I want to claw out the eyes of the waitress who keeps flirting with him right in front of my face...

Clearly you can see why I'm starting to freak out here.  

So, exactly how do I go about getting rid of these traitorous feelings that have oh-so-unexpectedly taken root?

I haven't the faintest clue...  I just know that I have to try my damnedest to stop these feelings from becoming even more entrenched.  Because Sam is the one person I can't afford to lose.  He's my absolute everything.  Without him... yeah, I can't even begin to imagine my life without him filling it.  I refuse to throw away eight solid years of friendship on fickle feelings of sexual attraction.
So, no matter what happens, I can't give in to these feelings.

Piece of cake, right?

Wrong.

❝That's the thing about love. It isn't going to be easy, it isn't going to be smooth, but it's going to be worth it. Because sometimes you have to take the plunge. And you never know if you'll make it out again.❞ Maybe it's the way he looked at her that day in kindergarten or maybe it's the way he was there for her all those years. Whatever it was, somewhere along the way Kaylee fell for Dylan - hard. She soon realizes, however, that feelings can be misinterpreted and fate often doesn't play in her favor. When a rift forms between the two, all hope seems lost and Kaylee is forced to move on. But later, when fate finally decides to twist in her favor, Kaylee is given a second chance to fix their romance. As the two work through resetting their relationship, they soon learn that friendships often don't go as planned, relationships aren't actually that simple, and words are not always easily said. And in the end, everything may just crash and burn. ******************************************* Warning: Read at your own risk! This is my first story on Wattpad (which I wrote when I was 14), so you know what that means - cringe, plot holes, and errors. It's not the most well-written; there are decent chapters and bad chapters. I hope you decide to give this story a chance anyways, though.

One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart.

Meet Me After Class by LeighFrankie

So who will it be for this hopelessly unromantic girl? The brooding best friend? Or the young and unquestionably attractive substitute teacher? They say every person is worth the potential heartbreak of relationships not working out. That's why people still take that leap. But not me. Never been kissed, never had a boyfriend-I was pretty convinced by now that I was one of those mega-rare exceptions to the rule; the unlucky sap was just not worth the risk. And I'm totally fine with that. Romance and heartbreak? Not worth the hype in my book. Until life decided to get all snarky on me. "Fooled you, idiot! You'll get your love story...just not at all how you wanted it." Before I know it, I'm swept up in romantic turmoil more dramatic than anything my wildest playwright fantasies could dream up. Getting these very real, very adult feelings for the first time is bloomin' confusing. Lines will blur, tough choices will be made, and hearts will be deliciously broken. So who will it be for this once-hopelessly unromantic girl? My brooding best friend? Or my young substitute teacher?

DEVOUR by superdwy

Moving to a new city, attaining the job of her dreams, and building a new career all at the young age of twenty-three years old, Kameron Springfield really has it all laid out for her. But being single and heart-broken by a man whom she'd thought was the one, definitely made her personal and romantic life a lot more difficult than she'd anticipated. And what happens, when that same man reappears into her life five years later? The powerful attraction she has for him threatens to consume any and all rational thoughts. She struggles to hold on to her feelings of resentment, unable to deny that she wants to try and let go of the grudges of the past. And when he looks at her with a burning passion in his eyes, it is evident that only one thing had begun to devour her: the addicting feeling of his body against hers. + This is a sequel to the first book: "CONSUME." + In this book, Kameron and Axel navigate their lives as adults, as well as learn to deal with their newly, unexpected reconnection. Forced to be around each other due to their mutual friendships and close-knit families, facing the forceful magnetism pulling them closer together may just be inevitable. Will they forgive, and finally be able to heal their differences after all these years? Or are the wounds just too deep to be mended? + There is detailed smut in this book. However, if any readers are uncomfortable with that, don't worry! There are smut warnings and notices before any scenes like that. Yet, there is suggestive language throughout the book, along with explicit language, drugs, and alcohol use. Aside from that, this book is for anyone and everyone to enjoy.

Period! by amna_riaz

"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched. I could feel fireworks exploding inside my entire body. With my neurological system not responding anymore. ******* Depicting the hostility and vulnerability of a young woman to a society the story centers around a normal sophomore, Amy Cole, who had a normal life. Well way too normal for her situation. Amy's life was all good until one day, when her friends dumped her and blamed her for something she never even did. Her life takes a complete turn as her childhood crush, Brandon Mayhew, the Mayor's son, who once broke her heart, rushes back into her life through a series of events. With new friends, shifting thoughts, confused feelings and fighting anxiety and standing for the right thing. Amy makes her way to the top. Only to get at the top of everyone's hate list.
