Summary
"They're sitting in the sunlight, laughing and smiling."
"But he's always been better in the shadows, silent and frowning."Zayn and Niall used to be everything to each other. Now they're strangers with too much history and too many unspoken feelings.
Zayn hides in the background, sketching what he can't say out loud. Niall is the golden boy, loud, confident, and loved by everyone. But his smile doesn't reach his eyes anymore.
When Louis, the new assistant sports teacher, starts paying attention, he notices the silences. The shaking hands. And how two boys seem to be falling apart, together and apart, all at once.
This is a story about the quiet ways people find their way back to each other. Set in empty hallways, late-night notes app drafts, and half-sketched portraits. Told through glances, songs, and the things they can't say out loud.
This story isn't a romance in the traditional sense. But if you're the kind of reader who believes in quiet hope, slow healing, and the long road back to love, then I promise, this book is for you.
[WARNING: Includes themes of eating disorders, emotional isolation, self-harm and other mental health. Please read with care.]

Summary
Life was good to 25 year old Harry Styles. He had a perfect life.....until one day he unexpectedly got stuck in the elevator of his building. Everything after that was miserable. Harry was no longer 'happy Harry', he became the 'scowling and grumpy Harry'. All because of one person, the devil. Harry blames him for all of his problems because if it wasn't for him being stuck with Harry in that elevator then maybe today Harry wouldn't have been this miserable....maybe...
Au where Harry is just a little bit too dramatic and hates the elevator in his building. Louis smiles too much. Zayn and Liam might have something going on of their own and Niall just wants to play the match maker, possibly have food along that way too.
Or where I suck at summary (:

Summary
Louis raised a brow. “Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure I saw you at the barricade tonight.”
Her mouth twitched. “Maybe.”
“Third from the left,” he added, voice low and sure. “Blue jacket. You weren’t screaming. Just… watching.”
She laughed softly, caught. “Okay, that’s creepy and flattering.”
He leaned a little closer, eyes dancing. “I remember the ones who look like they’re really listening.”
She held his gaze. “Is this how you talk to all your fans?”
“Only the pretty ones.” He smirked. -

Summary
1 Peter 5:7 - "Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you"
Louis begins his first year at a new public school after being bullied at his old catholic school. It starts rough and continuously gets worse. For Harry, however, he starts his last year in high school feeling as if he could achieve anything and ends up losing it all. As both Harry and Louis, more specifically Harry, fall deeper into the throes of depression and depersonalization, we begin to see the resiliency of the human spirit through the lens of, to put it simply, a child. While legally they are adults, the brain is still underdeveloped, going through massive amounts of trauma and tragic human experience. Showing the character development and bravery that we as a species can deliver.

Summary
Harry wakes up on a yacht, shackled to a bed. He's told that he's been abducted, and is set to be sold in an auction within hours.
After Louis purchases him, puts on a show, then takes him back to his room, he informs Harry that things aren't how they seem. For him, anyway.

Relieved to possibly have the option to go home, Harry is able to admit his attraction to the man who'd been brought onto the boat under false pretenses.
He agrees to endure whatever treatment necessary from Louis, to keep the attention off of them, until they're away from the monsters on board. Knowing his freedom is hours away, it doesn't seem too difficult of a task.
Until he realizes he's not there alone.

Summary
A prestigious university in London, known for its cutthroat academia and political undertones. Both Harry and Louis are esteemed professors in the English department-intellectual giants in their own right, but polar opposites in personality, teaching style, and personal values.
Harry and Louis have butted heads for years. Their debates are legendary-public lectures where sparks fly, published papers that subtly (or not so subtly) tear each other's theories apart. To the academic world, they are the embodiment of intellectual rivalry. To those who know them personally, it's more than that.
For Harry, Louis represents everything wrong with the academic elite: a privileged man who refuses to use his platform for change. For Louis, Harry is reckless, someone who takes risks he can afford because he doesn't fear rejection the way Louis does. But under all the intellectual posturing, there's always been something more. -

Summary
The AOC Test.
The Alpha Omega Compatibility Test.
The AOC is an event held every three months. The test consists of a large questionnaire that unmated alphas and omegas must fill out in order to find the best candidate for them to mate. The test has been in practice for decades, as it solved the anarchy issue between unmated alphas claiming unwilling omegas. Before the test, courts were filled with lawsuits, divorce filings, and pissed juries seeing the same cases over and over. It created order, and simplified the mating process.
To take the test on a designated testing day, an alpha or omega must register four weeks in advance. Alpha’s, no matter how many that may be bonded together, often take the test whenever they please once they’ve presented. Omegas often take the test very soon after they first present, in order to find a mate before their first heat. Without having their alpha, that week is extremely difficult for the sensitive creature to power through.No one really wants to wait longer.
Especially Louis.
He wanted his today.And he had no idea that he was about to match with three identical triplets.
