Georgia Stories

When Zinaida was eight years old, her family left Kazakhstan behind and moved to Wellsbury. Now, almost a decade later, she's seventeen-living a quiet life carefully built around the shadows of a past no one talks about. Her family is far from ordinary: An older sister, Yeva (20), who tries to protect her. A little sister, Ayla (9), too young to understand the truth. And a mother, Natascha (37), who's been holding everything together while silently falling apart. Their father, Roman (41), is locked up in Kazakhstan-a dangerous man with a violent past. But some wounds never stay buried. Zinaida has known Matt, Norah, Brodie, Maxine, Abby, Jordan, and Hunter since elementary school. They've grown up together, and they've always felt like her second family. Brodie is not just a childhood friend-he's also been her neighbor for as long as she can remember. But even the closest friends don't always know what you're carrying inside. And when Matt Press-charming, calm, and maybe just as broken-starts to mean more than he should, Zinaida begins to wonder if she's ready to let someone in. Because opening your heart often brings the darkest parts of your story into the light. A story about love, friendship, loyalty-and a past that refuses to stay in the past. -Photo not mine- -I am not very Perfect at english so if i ever make mistake just Write it Below and i make it then right.

A lifetime of love, loss, and coming home. Home follows the unforgettable journey of Jim Harlow - a Georgia-born Marine - and Allie Kennedy, the girl he loved since childhood, the girl who called him her cowboy. Through first loves, heartbreak, memory loss, and the long road back to each other, their story unfolds across decades of devotion, sacrifice, and second chances. Told through recovered memories, small-town heart, and raw emotion, Home is a Southern romance about two people who were never meant to be apart... and the hope that endures even when everything else falls away.

It's been a very trying year since Clarisse Ricci's world shattered dramatically. Her beloved father, Lorenzo, a larger-than-life billionaire that everyone admired for his kind, protective nature and savvy business management died suddenly. Everyone called it a tragic accident. Clarisse, however, isn't buying it. Now a senior in high school, with the looming thought of going to university and her future on the horizon, she cannot let go of the feeling that something darker happened. Her life soon takes a dangerous turn. Together with Joseph Samuels, her loyal (and occasionally stubborn) English boyfriend, and her creative thirteen-year-old sister, Camille, Clarisse dives into a mystery that threatens everything her parents built for them. The girls' mother, Isabelle, a world-renowned artist, tries to help, but even she is drowning in her own grief and distractions. Then the real danger steps out of the shadows: Harold Ward, Lorenzo's ruthless former COO, who's determined to claim the Ricci legacy for himself. Suddenly, Clarisse isn't just chasing answers but she is fighting to protect her family's future. If she fails, they could lose everything- their safety, their independence, and their chance at the lives they're just beginning to heal. Clarisse and Joseph thought turning eighteen meant gaining more freedom. Instead, it meant stepping up and risking it all. Will Clarisse and Joseph be able to succeed?

As a pastor's kid (2 pastors to be exact), the leader of a Bible study, and a star member of his church's college group, Martin Bo is ready to take his faith to the next level. Starting his summer after his senior year of high school, he has plans to take courses at his local Bible college to get ahead and spend some quality time with God and his Christian friends. When dance captain Terry Mao enthralls Martin's church with a freestyle performance, Martin is first in line to ask Terry about his faith and passion for dance. Turns out, Terry only performed to broaden his experience. And what faith? All he knows is his hours in the studio and his team members who dream of competing on world stages. When Terry offers to teach Martin some dance moves, Martin can't resist. After all, he was looking for an extracurricular activity. Maybe his dancing would be able to lead more people to Christ? After a lesson or two, Martin realizes that his idea might lead him down a dangerous path. Because Terry is not only talented and passionate, he is also everything that Martin has tried to avoid--someone that he might fall for. And if he truly wants to be the good Christian boy, he has to avoid Terry at all cost. Even if his heart is set on dancing with him, just one more time.

At Central Georgia State University, Friday nights belong to two kinds of legends-the ones under the stadium lights and the ones tearing through the rodeo arena. Jordan Hayes came here chasing more than a degree - a new start, a fresh arena, and the open space to breathe again. Riley Carson's been the campus golden boy since his first year, a quarterback with a heart he doesn't let many people see. A dorm mix-up puts them under the same roof, and what starts as irritation turns into quiet mornings, long drives, and the kind of friendship that feels dangerously close to love. She's the girl who runs barrels with fire in her eyes. He's the boy who throws passes like prayers. And somewhere between the rodeo grounds and the fifty-yard line, they learn that home isn't always a place - sometimes it's a person.

But everything changed when they started hooking up-kissing, touching, crossing lines without warning. They were still not a couple. No labels. No promises. Yet everyone knew one thing: Lacey was his.
