And three: make it into the NHL with no scandals. Piece of cake. What he doesn't expect is to find Lucy, a homeless girl, hiding from the winter frost in his dad's shed. Elliot's busy, complicated life doesn't permit room for error, and falling in love with a girl from a totally different world sounds like the opposite of a good idea. But Elliot can't help but be drawn to Lucy and her elusive ways--even when she seems to vanish from his life non-stop, each time leaving him with a bigger hole in his heart. But Elliot is determined to break down Lucy's barriers. And when he does, he discovers that her life is more complicated--and dangerous--than he could have imagined. With drafting season approaching, and Elliot's fragile mental health deteriorating, he's forced to face a difficult question: Is first love supposed to hurt so much? *** PLEASE DO NOT ADD THIS STORY TO GOODREADS.

    For fans of John Green and David Levithan. One suicide is tragic. Two is a pattern. Three is just negligent murder. Louis Lansing failed spectacularly at his own ending. Instead of dying, he wakes up inside Meadow Oaks Psychiatric, an underfunded treatment center where chemical restraints replace compassion, overworked staff struggle to maintain control, and survival often depends more on the other patients than the people paid to protect them. Louis plans to keep his head down until he's released. Then he meets Ike. Abby. Callum. As an unlikely family begins to form inside a place determined to break them, Louis is forced to confront the years leading to the devastating loss of his best friend, Thomas, and the guilt that convinced him his own life ended long before his suicide attempt. Told between the brutal reality of Meadow Oaks and the memories that haunt him, Beautifully Broken is a raw, darkly funny novel about survivor's guilt, found family, and learning to live in a world that has given you every reason not to. Can you build a future when your beginning is already ruined?

Her smile fades. "Don't say that if you don't mean it." My fingers play with her hair. "I do mean it. Lavender, I will be by your side for as long as you will let me. And even if you don't, I will still be there from afar, waiting for when you do." *** ~ To everyone who feels like they're not deserving of love. started november 10th, 2022 ended ??? *** RANKINGS: 9/21/24 β€’ #2 IN FRENEMIES 3/27/25 β€’ #3 IN LAVENDER 7/07/26 β€’ #2 IN TEENROMANCE

    Dean blinked, not understanding. Not fully. "Sick how?" Rosie pressed a hand to her chest. Pain flared beneath her palm. Sharp now. Wrong. "I'm sick," she repeated. Dean stepped forward immediately. "Okay. I'll take you home. You'll feel better tomorrow." The gentleness in his voice broke her. "No, Dean." Her knees weakened. Beau caught her elbow. "Rosie." She looked at them both through tears. For weeks, she had imagined telling them. Not like this. Never like this. Not in a bar with music pounding and her heart misfiring in her chest.

    Sincere Brielle White has always been the soft one-gentle voice, pretty smile, big heart. Everyone thinks she has it all together. Nobody knows about the insecurity she hides so deep she can't even say it out loud. She keeps her brightness polished and perfect... scared that if anyone looks too closely, they'll see the cracks underneath. Then there's Terajaie Imani Connell. Silent. Standoffish. Untouchable. The kind of stud who speaks with her eyes more than her mouth, who fights only when she has to, who carries her past like a weight she learned to hide. People fear her before they understand her-but she prefers it that way. Trusting people has never ended well. Until Sincere. A seating change puts them side by side, and Terajaie notices the things everyone else misses-the quiet tremble in Sincere's hands, the way her smile fades when she thinks no one is looking, the exhaustion behind her eyes. And Sincere sees past Terajaie's coldness, past her silence, past her armor... and finds the girl who's been alone for too long. What starts as awkward glances and accidental conversations turns into late-night texts, warm rides home, soft touches, and a connection neither of them were ready for. But loving someone means letting them see the parts you're terrified to show. Sincere's hidden insecurity. Terajaie's guarded heart. Two girls learning what it means to feel safe-really safe-for the first time. Because sometimes love isn't loud. Sometimes it isn't dramatic. Sometimes... it's just warm.

    I didn't plan on falling in love with Harry Styles. Now I have to figure out how to build a life with him. Turns out, "happily ever after" isn't a destination. It's a choice we make every single day. The fairytale ended the moment we said, "I do." Real life began the morning after. There are still sold-out stadiums, flashing cameras, and headlines waiting for us. There are still scars that ache, fears that linger, and days when loving each other feels easier than loving ourselves. But there are quiet mornings, too. Inside jokes. Sunday coffee. New dreams. A home we've built together. We fought so hard to find each other. Now we have to learn how to grow together. Because falling in love was only the beginning. Everything else happens Beyond the Bar.
