Spending his nights partying with his friends to forget, he drifts through days with little interest in chasing anything but the next distraction. After a chance meeting, they find themselves drawn increasingly close together, pushing the boundaries of their heartache and histories, and fighting for a future neither dared to envision. current word count: 182,677 -------- • typically one update every two weeks with long chapters (some of which are broken into parts for ease of reading) • I'm a very dialogue-heavy writer :) • this is a genuine slow burn ***Read with caution*** This story includes mature 18+ content and themes such as explicit sexual content, suicide, self-harm, abuse, violence, trauma, drug use, mental illness, death, extreme homophobia, slurs, cursing, etc. There is no SA though

Knife's Edge by TinyZebraThing

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor has been dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters, Charlotte and Bailey, who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. Her father finally got caught when she was seven and for a fleeting, white-hot second, it seemed that things were going to be okay. She should've known better. She should've known that her mother would jump ship, choose the drugs and not the daughter. Suddenly left abandoned, navigating the murky waters of life in care, it took a little while longer for Jade to find her place in the world. Now, finally, she has. At the age of eighteen, Jade is counting down the days before her exams are over, excited to spend the summer with her two best friends and boyfriend. Unfortunately, things don't always go according to plan... not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman's - a family that fits so perfectly into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid - Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. The question is... which way will she fall? (This description is a work in progress and may be subject to change!) TRIGGER WARNINGS ⚠️ : Drugs, violence, references to childhood abuse, mental health issues **UPDATES EVERY THURSDAY**

Breathe [mature romance] - PREVIEW ONLY by elsetterby

This is a seven-chapter preview of a full-length published novel. Buy links: Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XQYVSVV Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/breathe-76 iBooks: https://itun.es/us/d_Yajb.l Check out the companion novel, Whisper! Free on Wattpad. ********** A GOOD MAN, FALLING APART Small town police officer Simon Labelle repressed his attraction to sexy shopgirl Leona Chaisty for years. He's good at controlling his feelings--or he used to be, before the bombing that he can't solve, that he should have prevented. Now, after a chance encounter with Leona at the lake, Simon can't get her out of his head. All those high school fantasies roar to life. A BAD GIRL, WISHING FOR MORE Leona is drawn to the intensity in Simon's pretty-boy blue eyes, but he's a good man, and she's not just hopelessly kinky--she'll never know how to love. Still, unlike everyone else, Simon acts like she might actually have a heart. The more time they spend together, the more she wishes he were right. A CHALLENGE NEITHER CAN RESIST After a second unsolved case pulls them together, their sexual chemistry rattles them both, and hints at an unsettling fetish that Simon struggles to suppress. Leona pushes Simon to decide what he wants--whether to dominate, submit, or some mix of both--while Simon, already falling for his dream girl, finally gets her to admit that she's lonely. Each challenges the other to reveal more, to cede control, to be vulnerable. But they're both more fragile than they appear. It's only a matter of time before one pushes too hard, and the other breaks. ********** Trigger warnings for depression, suicidal ideation, and possibly alcoholism. Significant child abuse (neglect only) is also part of a character's backstory. There is gender-bending, femdom, and a pretty scary control-based fetish. There is also off-screen violence and death, and mild on-screen violence.

Interlude by VesperM9

People run away, love doesn't. The woeful life of Rose Barnes is showing no signs of improvement. She's alone in a new city, drowning in debt, with dwindling job prospects. It only gets worse when she finds herself right in front of the one person she has been terrified of meeting again. Dev Malhotra, son and heir to an illustrious real estate family, is on his way to extravagant success. Memories of the only girl who could make him nervous, seem far behind. Then suddenly she appears. But she's changed. Her spirit is wounded. Battling the chaos of her life isn't easy for Rose. But it's even harder to fight her feelings for Dev that are spiraling out of control. Not to mention, even eight years haven't made Dev any less protective of her. The thing about fate is that when the story seems to end, a new chapter begins... A standalone, friends to lovers, second chance romance.

This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.
