A SEQUEL TO SPOKEN IN SILENCE After Edward Whitcombe's tragic suicide, preceded by the loss of his mistress and illegitimate son, his legacy falls to his elder son, Miles, now burdened with the family estate and law firm. As war breaks across Europe, Toronto becomes both battleground and backdrop, and Miles enlists in the Canadian Army, stationed at home, striving to forge a life separate from the shadows cast by his father. Francis Whitcombe, younger and unapologetically himself, navigates a world that refuses to see him clearly. His queerness, a quiet rebellion in a society gripped by conformity, entwines with the social upheaval of war and family expectation. In the haze of underground clubs and whispered defiance, Miles meets Anya-Francis' radiant friend with secrets of her own. Their love, fragile and fervent, blooms away from prying eyes. Yet fate places Miles on a path toward a marriage arranged for wealth and stature, binding him to a woman he cannot love. As the war intensifies, so does the pressure to uphold the Whitcombe name. History looms, duty beckons, and the echo of past mistakes threatens to drown the possibility of a different future. In stolen hours and hidden places, Miles and Francis each fight for the right to live-and to love-on their own terms.

Eighteen-year-old Emerson Maxwell is preparing for her last summer at home before college, ready for sun, saltwater, and whatever unexpected moments might come her way. But when her brother shows up with his college best friend, Brooklyn Warner, everything changes. Brooklyn was supposed to be a quiet houseguest. A background character. Instead, he's all sharp edges and lingering glances-nothing like Emerson imagined. After a year of pressure from demanding parents and conflicting dreams, Brooklyn needs this summer to breathe, to figure things out. Falling for his best friend's little sister was never part of the plan. As days stretch long under the Miami sun, rules blur and secrets simmer. And in the middle of it all, Emerson and Brooklyn begin to wonder if one summer could change everything-if they're willing to risk it.

Hailee had it all - a charming husband, a picturesque marriage, and a life most would envy. But behind the curated perfection was a woman silently drowning. Years of emotional neglect, controlling compromises, and one devastating proposition shattered her trust: an open marriage, his idea, never hers. Then came Stiles - magnetic, powerful, and everything Sam wasn't. What began as a reckless escape ignites into an all-consuming affair, one that blurs the lines between love, lust, and liberation. With Stiles, Hailee finds herself seen, touched, and wanted in ways that feel dangerously real. But the truth doesn't stay hidden for long. And as her two worlds collide, Hailee must confront the wreckage of her choices, the ghosts of her loyalty, and the terrifying freedom of finally choosing herself. Untamed Affair is a passionate, heart-wrenching tale of betrayal, desire, and rediscovery, it is a gripping exploration of what happens when a woman dares to choose herself. Raw, seductive, and emotionally riveting. This story is inspired by stories of many people I've met in my life. This is dramatized, so most of it is not real.

HAILEE is a collection of many different stories told to me by women and their experiences in marriage and relationships. SAM is another collection of many men with similar traits that women have shared with me.

I froze. A man was slumped against the graffiti-covered brick wall, blood blooming across his side. His white shirt was soaked through, and there was a gun just inches from his open hand. My heart slammed against my ribs. Run, Skye. You should run. But I didn't. Instead, I dropped my bag and took a cautious step closer. His head lifted. Piercing, icy blue eyes met mine, sharp even through the haze of pain. His face was all sharp edges and shadowed scruff, blood trailing from the corner of his mouth. His accent was thick and rough, like broken glass. "Leave." I shook my head slowly. "You're bleeding. Bad." "Not your concern." His voice was lethal, but he flinched hard when he tried to move. "You're gonna die out here," I whispered, kneeling beside him. My hands trembled as I pressed a napkin from my apron against his side. "I'm studying to be a nurse. Let me help." He stared at me like I was something he couldn't comprehend. A stranger. A softness he didn't trust. Then his hand, heavy and warm, clamped around my wrist-not rough, but firm. "What's your name?" he rasped. "...Skye." A beat passed. Then another. "I am Mikhail." His eyes darkened. "And you shouldn't have found me."

Anna, a young woman scarred by cruelty and stripped of freedom, finds herself rescued from the brink of death by Harry Walker-a wealthy doctor bound by family expectations and society's ruthless rules. What begins as an act of compassion turns into something neither of them can deny: a fragile bond that grows into forbidden love. But their world is not forgiving. Whispers travel faster than secrets, and both Anna and Harry must risk everything-his family's power, her fragile safety, and the wrath of men who see her as nothing more than property.

Passionate, heartbreaking, and defiantly romantic, I'll Fight for You is a sweeping tale of courage, betrayal, and a love strong enough to challenge a world built to destroy it.
