Left without closure, a year has passed and Brian is now more determined than ever to undo the harm done to the ones he loves most, his family. Even if that means riding the thin line between justice, revenge, and obsession... Immersed in his resolve, finding love again was the last thing on his mind. Until fate steps in and a chance encounter changes everything. Meeting Olivia again so unexpectedly, at his best friend's wedding, stirs up memories he had long ago put away. She'd been his first love, his kindred spirit - and the woman who left him without saying so much as a goodbye. Which doesn't make him want her less.

But it's been more than ten years since their story was left unfinished. Will they get one last chance to make things right? Or will Brian learn that sometimes justice comes at too high a price? *** NOTE TO READERS: A full-length, standalone contemporary romance, Where the Stars Fall was previously published on Wattpad as Falling Home.

To Do List (gretson) by lost_dyke

Carson was 27 and tired of her life. She needed an outlet. Or maybe to change everything. She wasn't sure about anything except the fact that she needed something else, anything else. She'd heard about a Taylor Swift concert over the weekend, on October 29th, 2022, in New York. That meant a go-wild find-yourself road trip and a weekend in the Big Apple. At least eight days away from her boring small city life. A time she could use to figure some stuff out. So she wrote down a to-do list of silly things she should have done when she was younger: travel alone, have a lot of fast food, go to a karaoke bar, get drunk, see Taylor Swift live. She would do those silly things now. Maybe she'd find out who she really was and what she wanted, while on the road, while in New York, while stanning Miss Americana. She could never guess this trip would bring her much more than Taylor Swift. It would bring her Greta Gill. ... An alternate universe gretson fanfiction.
