Briar U - Between the Lines

At Briar University, everything revolves around hockey—and the players who rule the ice. Transferring in mid-semester, you’re not looking for attention, drama, or a place in their world. You’ve spent long enough being defined by someone else’s name, someone else’s expectations. This time, you’re here for yourself. But Briar doesn’t make it easy to stay on the sidelines. Between late-night parties, high-stakes games, and a tight-knit group that doesn’t let outsiders in easily, you find yourself pulled into a world that’s louder, messier, and far more complicated than you expected. The deeper you get, the more you start to notice what others don’t—the pressure, the cracks, the things no one talks about. And the more you try to keep your distance… the harder it becomes. Because at Briar, nothing stays casual for long. Not friendships. Not rivalries. And definitely not the way certain people start to look at you.

ᴍᴀᴛᴛʜᴇᴏ ʀɪᴅᴅʟᴇ | ʟᴏᴠᴇ ᴘᴏᴛɪᴏɴ ᴅɪꜱᴀꜱᴛᴇʀ

A love potion gone wrong doesn’t make people fall in love—it exposes the feelings they already have. As Hogwarts descends into chaos, hidden crushes become impossible to hide, and your rivalry with Mattheo Riddle starts looking a lot more like unresolved tension. Turns out, the biggest secret in the castle wasn’t hidden in the dungeons… it was standing right beside you.

Bucky Barnes | Beyond the Metal Arm

Tony Stark can build anything… except a broken man. When you’re recruited as one of Stark Industries’ brightest engineers, you expect impossible inventions, billionaire chaos, and the occasional Avengers emergency—not becoming responsible for upgrading the most infamous arm in history. James “Bucky” Barnes doesn’t trust easily. After decades of being used as a weapon, the last thing he wants is someone digging into the technology keeping him together.

𝒜 𝒫𝓁𝒶𝒸𝑒 𝒜𝓂𝑜𝓃𝑔 𝒜𝓋𝑒𝓃𝑔𝑒𝓇𝓈 | Marvel

The world has changed. Gods walk among humans, aliens have invaded Earth, and extraordinary people are no longer the exception—they’re the future. After proving yourself during a mission, you’re offered a place at the Avengers Compound as the newest recruit in a probationary trial. Your past is yours to decide. Whether you’re enhanced, a mutant, a sorcerer, an alien, a genius inventor, a supersoldier or something entirely unique, your story begins here. Train alongside Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, live under the same roof, build friendships, face dangerous missions and discover what kind of hero you want to become. Earn the trust of legends like Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff and the rest of the team as you balance everyday life with saving the world. Your powers are your choice. Your past is your own. The only question left is… are you worthy of becoming an Avenger?

One Ranch. Too Many Cowboys

Clark Ranch was supposed to be home — horses, family, dirt roads, and the same people you’ve known your whole life. Then your ex comes back to town. Suddenly glances last longer, feelings get complicated, and the cowboys around you start becoming a little harder to ignore. Turns out the real danger on a ranch isn’t the horses… it’s the people.

His Irish Princess

Y/N Clark and Luca Marcetti were never supposed to work. She’s the daughter of America’s most powerful Irish crime family. He’s the heir to the country’s most influential Italian empire. For decades, their families have been rivals, competing for power, influence, and control. When a dangerous new threat emerges, the Clarks and Marcettis are forced into an unprecedented alliance. To convince the world the partnership is real, Y/N and Luca must become its public face. Galas. Business meetings. Family events. Endless appearances together. It’s only supposed to be temporary. But the longer they pretend, the harder it becomes to remember what’s real. In a world built on loyalty, power, and family, falling for the enemy could cost them everything.

𝐇𝐎𝐆𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐒 — 𝑼𝒏𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒅

One detention. Fifteen students. One group chat that was supposed to be deleted. Draco’s arguing with Harry, Mattheo’s threatening people, Fred and George are making everything worse, Pansy knows everyone’s secrets, and somehow you’re stuck right in the middle of it. What starts as a punishment quickly becomes late-night texts, secret parties, leaked crushes, jealous arguments and friendships nobody saw coming. Your house. Your choices. Your story. Welcome to Detention Chat. Try not to get expelled.

── 𐚁̸ 𝑵𝑬𝑽𝑬𝑹 𝑲𝑰𝑺𝑺 𝑨 𝑾𝑰𝑳𝑫𝑬𝑹 𐚁̸ ──

In Blackwater, you inherit three things: your family name, your land, and your enemies. For generations, your family and the Wilders have owned neighbouring ranches, dominated the local rodeo, and carried on a feud so old that no one remembers where the truth ends and the grudges begin. And then there’s Wyatt Wilder. Your childhood rival. The cowboy you’ve spent years trying to outride, outshoot, outsmart—and occasionally resist the urge to strangle. When Blackwater’s centennial forces the descendants of its two founding families to work together, avoiding Wyatt becomes impossible. Between heated arguments, ranch rivalries, jealous glances, late-night rides and a chemistry neither of you wants to acknowledge, the line between hate and want starts getting dangerously thin. Because falling for Wyatt wouldn’t just break the rules. It could tear two families—and an entire town—apart. 𐚁̸ ENEMIES TO LOVERS • RIVAL FAMILIES • COWBOYS • FORBIDDEN ROMANCE • SMALL-TOWN DRAMA • SLOW BURN 𐚁̸

The King’s Most Dangerous Knight

She is the future queen. He is the kingdom’s deadliest weapon. Princess Y/N has spent her life preparing to rule, but when threats close in around the crown, she is placed under the protection of Sir Kaelan Veyr—the one knight feared by enemies and trusted by the king. Bound by duty. Divided by desire. As danger grows and secrets unravel, the knight sworn to protect her must decide whether his greatest loyalty belongs to the kingdom… or to her. Because some vows are impossible to keep when your heart is involved.

Still Yours, Somehow

After a public breakup and years spent living under the spotlight, country music superstar Y/N Calloway returns to her small Texas hometown to escape fame and reconnect with the family she barely gets to see. What was supposed to be a temporary break becomes far more complicated when she finds herself face-to-face with Wyatt Callahan—the first love she never truly got over and the man she believes broke her heart years ago. In a town full of memories, secrets, and unfinished business, Y/N must decide whether some stories deserve a second chance.
