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.

    Warning: this book may cause emotional whiplash, dramatic snorting, and occasional re-reading of the same paragraph. Proceed with wine. Suzy Hilliard has a talent for chaos: emotional breakdowns, spectacular public meltdowns, and accidentally calling out the death of monogamy with a mic in hand. After a particularly unhinged work incident (involving a phone, a client, and a mild rage blackout), she ends up in a psychiatric ward-for "observation." Enter Dr. William James Hale: emotionally reserved, logically unshakeable, and her assigned psychiatrist. He believes in science, structure, and not falling for patients. She believes in sarcasm, caffeine, and not being told what to do. It's not love. It's not supposed to be anything. But between therapy groups, Nurse Kim's contraband snacks, new friendships, and the growing tension with the world's most emotionally unavailable man-Suzy starts to wonder: Is she actually crazy? Or is everyone else just pretending better? A slow-burn romantic dramedy about burnout, breakdowns, and the most unexpected kind of healing.

    When You Forgot Me (Read story info uploaded in part for better understanding) Pond Naravit Lertratkosun has everything money can buy-wealth, status, a powerful family name. Everything except peace. After surviving the accident that stole his parents and shattered his mind, Pond has lived trapped between past and present, feared by strangers and pitied by society. No doctor has ever been able to reach him. No treatment has ever worked. Until Phuwin. Young, patient, and far too gentle for a house full of broken things, Phuwin agrees to take on the case no one else could handle. What begins as duty slowly turns into something far more dangerous when Pond-fragile, affectionate, and starved for warmth-starts to cling to the one person who makes the nightmares stop. Inside the Lertratkosun mansion, hearts soften, jealousy sparks, and wounds long buried begin to surface. But healing has a price, and some recoveries demand more than anyone is ready to lose. With an overprotective older brother, a sunshine brother-in-law, old ghosts, unwanted rivals, and a love that grows in the unlikeliest place, this is a story about trauma, memory, second chances, and loving someone in every version of who they are. Some people survive an accident. Some people survive forgetting. Some people only learn to live when they're loved. (Note: This is going to be a long story..! So pls be patient)

    MATURE CONTENT - 18+ The war is over, but healing takes time. As the villages begin to rebuild, missions become survival, and survival demands teamwork. When Sakura, now one of the most skilled medic in the shinobi world, is paired with her former mentor Kakashi Hatake, neither of them expects more than routine work. But silent glances turn into shared silences... and something unspoken begins to grow. She was never supposed to look at him that way-he was never supposed to want her back. What happens when two comrades cross the lines they spent years pretending didn't exist? This is a slow-burn,Adult and mature story exploring the shift from comradeship to something deeper... and maybe even dangerous. Note- So for the story purpose Kakashi is currently 30 years old n Sakura is 18 years old. Contains smut when relevant to the story and character development...never without purpose. I don't own any Naruto characters or anything except this fanfiction.

    After attending the final night of Love On Tour at Wembley Stadium, Amelia - an ordinary fan - shares a brief but deeply personal moment with Harry Styles when he notices her sign thanking him for helping her feel less alone. What begins as an unforgettable concert experience unexpectedly turns into private messages and a quiet coffee meeting in London. But will it lead to something more? As their connection grows, so do the complications. Public attention, online speculation, and the pressures of fame quickly intrude on something that feels genuine and fragile. While Harry struggles with living a life constantly observed, Amelia must adjust to being pulled into a world she never asked to be part of. This story contains mentions of strong anxiety disorders as well as frequent panic attacks. I will try to include warning on these chapters that have strong mentions otherwise there will be small hints at anxiety throughout the story.
