Metanoia 
(n) the journey of changing one's heart, self, or way of life

Lily James is a focused student in her second year at Oxford.

She plays field hockey and competes on a rowing team, and on the weekends you'll find her doing homework instead of out with her friends. 
Always careful, people think that's just the way Lily is and always has been. But there was a time, 4 years ago, when Lily was a wild child desperate and recklessly trying to be free. 

She got her wish, but what we wish for is not always what's best and Lily's innocence was lost along with her heart. 

Lily doesn't think about her time four years ago if she can help it, which of course means that there are times she can think of little else. 

She shuts her eyes, focuses on her school, and pretends she was never sixteen and naïve even if being sixteen and naïve is the only reason she has the luxury to make believe.

Lily's world is turned upside down when she takes an unexpected trip to Paris with some friends and meets up with someone from her past. Her nightmares become reality as she works to ignore someone who clearly isn't going to let her. 

Pretending never hurt anyone. (Except for how it did.)Todos os Direitos Reservados

Your Ten Letters [Completed], de theresadedella

"Have you ever wondered how chance can change the course of your entire life?" In the realm of everyday life and boundless aspirations, Lily's world took a dramatic turn when she crossed paths with Marcus. He was a catalyst who flipped her world upside down, painting it with shades of both light and dark. Like a tempestuous force of nature, he swept into her life, leaving an indelible mark upon her heart, and love blossomed like flowers in spring, vibrant and full of life. However, their time together was as fleeting as a summer storm. As quickly as raindrops kissed the ground, he departed from her life, leaving behind a bittersweet memory - ten letters of the ten months they were together.

Temptations, de latenightreeads

Sadie and Colson are the reigning royalty of their college campus. She's the fiercely dedicated captain of the dance team; he's the star player and captain of the hockey team. Their worlds are already intertwined, thanks to Sadie's boyfriend, Mark, one of Colson's teammates. But Mark is hiding his true face behind the uniform. To the outside world, he's a charismatic jock. To Sadie, he's a cage of manipulation and quiet cruelty. She keeps his secrets hidden beneath a polished smile, and no one suspects the danger she's in-except for Colson. Colson sees the shadows in her eyes and the way she flinches when Mark is near. He burns to intervene, yet Mark's subtle tactics ensure no one will believe him over the beloved couple. As Colson watches from the periphery, his protector instincts ignite, and the casual friendship between him and Sadie begins to crackle with something deeper, something forbidden. In the high-stakes world of college athletics, where every victory is public and every mistake is magnified, Sadie must choose between the safe lie she's been living and the terrifying truth Colson represents. Colson knows he needs to save her, but doing so means risking his own reputation, his captaincy, and potentially Sadie's trust. She's trapped in a manipulative relationship; he's desperate to pull her out. But as their feelings reach a boiling point, will the courage to escape her abuser be enough to give Sadie and Colson the love they're both beginning to crave?

Nobody boils his blood as she does and when she's hired to assist his team during championship season, he discerns that there's more to her story than meets the eye. She was always the villain in his story. But, suddenly she's the plot twist he never saw coming. Each glare and scowl and insult piles up, put under tremendous pressure by their mutual hatred. Yet, peeking through their fury clouded vision, they find the centre of their relationship blazing. Like two rival stars gravitating towards each other, Nyx and Beckham can do nothing when the law of attraction forces them to accept that passion doesn't always mean hatred, but perhaps something more.

So when the University of Michigan's ice hockey team targets her in a prank gone wrong? She's ready to call campus security, drop-kick the nearest jock and move on with her structured little life.

"And why the hell not?" "I'm not going to kiss you," My lips graze the shell of her ear. "Until you beg me to." ➳♡➳ Slow burn. Enemies to friends to lovers. Banter like a whiplash. One anxious overachiever. One chaotic hockey captain. This was never part of the plan.

The Quiet That Burns, de AuthorEverleighBlake

He was her first everything. She was the only thing he ever wanted to keep. Four years ago at a high school party, Lilly St. James asked Luke Richards to take her virginity. No one ever found out. They never spoke of it again. Now they're both at Trentwood University. She's a rising ballet star with a killer body, flirtatious charm, and a reputation for keeping things casual. He's the stoic, unshakable goalie with an NHL contract to protect and desires he can't risk sharing with anyone. Except Lilly. Because she's the only one who knows what he really wants. And he's the only one who knows how dark it got in her head. They don't hide anything from each other. That's always been their problem. So when she asks him to help her explore the fantasies no one else has ever made her feel safe enough to admit, he says no. Until one reckless night, he doesn't. What starts as a private, no-strings arrangement turns into something messy, addictive, and dangerously intimate. She's supposed to be just a list. He's supposed to stay detached. But the more control she gives him behind closed doors, the more he unravels outside of them. Because the truth is-he never forgot the sounds she made that night. And now that he's had a taste, letting her go again might destroy him. But the real threat isn't what they do together in the dark. It's what happens when the whole world finds out. Secrets they can live with. Shame is another story. Especially when it goes viral.

I'll make sure of it." ___________________________________ There is a lot to think about when you find out your best friend has been raped and murdered.

Hilarious, charming, the guy with the perfect quiff, and star quarter-back of the football team. He was loved by everyone. He was the guy you couldn't stay away from. Levi Harrison.
