Sixteen-year-old Eliza Whitmore lives under the heavy expectations of her devout, upper-middle-class family in a conservative suburb of London. She's the model daughter: top grades, modest clothes, and a prodigious talent for the violin. Her parents, determined to shape her into a celebrated classical musician, hire an elite instructor-Ms. Adrienne Locke, a former concert violinist who's brilliant, enigmatic, and, quietly, a lesbian.

As Eliza's lessons progress, so does her sense of self. She begins to question the world she's always known. Music opens a doorway-not just to artistic freedom, but emotional and romantic awakening. Her growing feelings for Adrienne clash with the doctrine and identity she's always accepted without question.

Now, Eliza must navigate first love, personal truth, and the price of breaking away from the life designed for her.All Rights Reserved

Lessons in Silence by ririluxe

Eliza Hart doesn't let anyone close. At thirty-one, she's a rising star in the English department-sharp-tongued, fiercely intelligent, and always in control. Her lectures are legendary. Her boundaries? Unbreakable. She commands respect with every word, and no one dares question her authority. Until Lena Rowe walks into her classroom. Bold. Brilliant. Unapologetically defiant. Lena doesn't bow to Eliza's reputation-or her gaze. She challenges every word, every theory, every boundary Eliza has spent years building. And Eliza knows she should shut it down, ignore the undeniable spark between them, just like she's done before. But this time, ignoring the tension isn't so simple. In the space between literature and longing, defiance and desire, one question echoes louder than the rest: How do you resist someone who doesn't follow the rules but still makes you question everything you thought you knew? A slow-burn, forbidden romance of daring rebellion, buried truths, and the boundaries we never thought we'd cross. Until we do.

STATIC (LGBT) by kewk123

Alex is not shy, she's simply following her rules to hide in the background of life in general. Or at least she's doing her best to be 'at the fardest end of the social spectrum' Strictly reserved to her own things that vary from music to... pretty much anything related to that, Alex lives the normal life of a highschool student who doesn't wish to engage in deep conversations with no one. Not even her family even though ocassionaly she has to. One day around the middle of the school year, she coicidentially (yeah right. I wrote it :D) is asked by a new beautiful girl the simple favor of helping her find the exit of the school building. Of course, you could expect her to try to avoid her, wouldn't you? === So this is the new story guys! So excited. Kewk :3 P.S. I don't own any of the songs that I use in this book, they're just for the sake of the storyline as I really enjoy music very much and I wish for it to be included in my books.

Whispers Of The Heart by 1d_football5

Ava Brooks has faced unimaginable pain in the wake of her mother's death, and the only solace she finds is in her books. Having missed a year of school due to family circumstances, she returns for her senior year at 18, just days before her 19th birthday. She's a quiet girl, lost in the shadows of a strict and emotionally abusive home with her father, who harbors a dark and sinister rage. Ava has no friends and is regularly tormented by her peers. But everything begins to change when a new teacher, Valentina Sullivan, arrives at the school. Valentina Sullivan, a strict and no-nonsense educator, quickly establishes her presence in the classroom. Known for her confidence, she is the opposite of Ava in nearly every way. Yet, something unspoken lingers between them, a bond that neither fully understands at first. As Valentina becomes more involved in Ava's life, offering her support and encouragement, the walls between teacher and student begin to crumble. But the road ahead is complicated.

Valentina's presence offers Ava an unexpected source of strength, and soon, their relationship shifts in ways neither of them can ignore. The lines between what is acceptable and forbidden blur, and what started as a quiet support soon grows into something far more intimate and dangerous. Through trials of love, loss, and redemption, Ava and Valentina must face their own demons, their desires, and the truth of their connection. What starts as a forbidden relationship builds into a passionate bond that defies all the rules, forcing them both to confront their darkest fears-and their deepest desires.

Where The Light Went by CrushdConfessions

Bree doesn't do love anymore. Not since the accident. Not since the life she built was taken from her in the quiet blink of a moment. Now she keeps things simple. Drinks too much. Sleeps with women who don't ask questions. Keeps her heart buried somewhere between a barstool and the back porch. Then Harper comes back. The girl from summers past. The one who knew her before the world got sharp. Bree tells herself it's nothing. Just a ghost of a friendship. A familiar face passing through. But something's shifting. And the more she tries to ignore it... the more it demands to be seen. Some wounds don't scar over. Some hearts don't stay buried.

DISSONANCE by BoaMissy

"Some dissonance is written into the score-but she played it like fate had no conductor." When prodigy violinist Macy Eos Thornscroft is chosen as the new concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic, she steps into a world of relentless scrutiny, ambition, and quiet obsession. Driven, brilliant, and haunted by an unspeakable past, Macy's music masks the silence she's lived with since childhood-until one woman dares to challenge her composure. Lydia Tár, the enigmatic and commanding maestro, sees more than talent in Macy-she sees a mirror, a provocation, and perhaps... something she lost long ago. As rehearsals intensify, so do the unspoken glances, the private lessons behind closed doors, and the unraveling boundaries between power and longing. But beneath the music lies something darker-a hidden manipulation, a secret alliance, and a hunger that could destroy them both. With whispers spreading through the orchestra and past wounds bleeding into the present, Macy must decide how much of herself she's willing to lose for the sake of art... and for the conductor who plays her like no one ever has. A tale of desire, discipline, and dangerous devotion, DISSONANCE is a haunting psychological drama that lingers long after the final note.

All the Things I Left Behind by CheezNWritersBlock

Claire Holloway had lived her life by a promise---to make sure her mother never had to give another fiber of her being to anyone but herself, no matter the cost. Twelve years, countless all-nighters, and a degree in psychology later, she's finally made it. But when a phone call drags her back to her small hometown, Claire realizes that the life she built in the city might have been the biggest mistake of her life. Claire must face the deafening reality that all her work had been for nothing. Charlie Bennett is no stranger to loss. Her marriage is now, or she should say has always been, shattered. Her daughter barely looks her in the eye, and the quiet of her house feels heavier than the fists she's endured in her life. When her daughter unexpectedly returns, Charlie's fragile world begins to crumble under the weight of her daughters hatred towards her--and so does her heart when she crosses paths with someone she never thought she'd see again. Years ago, Claire was Charlie's student---the girl with too many dreams and not enough time to chase them. Now, they are two women standing at the edge of a life neither of them chose for themselves. What begins as an unexpected reunion turns into something far deeper than they could've expected. As old boundaries blur and long-buried emotions resurface, Claire and Charlie must decide whether love can heal the wreckage of their lives -or if some things are better left behind.
