A raw, trauma-forward story of survival, found family, and the fire that comes after the fall. Remi Carter never meant to fall for a biker. She didn't plan to walk into a club war. She didn't expect to be hunted, silenced, or broken. But when the life she's built is torn apart, when violence leaves scars deeper than skin, Remi is left with nothing but rage, memory, and a will to survive. Set against the backdrop of a fractured motorcycle club, a tight-knit trauma clinic, and a ranch that offers refuge to the women the world forgot, No Redemption Road is not about being saved. It's about what comes after. After betrayal. After assault. After losing the life you thought was yours. This is a story of women who fight. Of found family. Of love that doesn't fix you, but chooses to stay when you're at your worst. It's the slow burn of healing. Of facing the monsters who stole everything. Of burning it all down, and still choosing to live. This is not a romance with a tragic twist. It's a trauma story with no promises. But at the end of the road... maybe there's still a way home. This is book one in the Redemption Road Series of interconnected stories following different characters surrounding NRR. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story includes themes of trauma, sexual violence, emotional abuse, and psychological manipulation. Remi's journey includes scenes of assault and survival. These events are portrayed with care, never glorified, and written to reflect the raw truth of what she endures.

She's survived everything - except family. Grace has spent her life outrunning the past: a childhood of scars, the system that failed her, and an ex who nearly destroyed her. At twenty-four, she's finally free - until a DNA test reveals a half-sister she never knew, and an invitation to a town where blood runs thick and the rules are written in chrome and loyalty. Her brothers don't want her there. Their motorcycle club doesn't trust her. And Ash - tattooed, ice-eyed, and unreadable - keeps his distance. Until he doesn't. Because the moment Grace starts to matter, everything shifts. Tensions rise, threats surface, and Ash finds himself crossing lines he swore he wouldn't - especially for someone like her. She's survived the worst the world could throw at her. But in a place where trust is earned in bruises and belonging is paid for in blood, learning to be protected might be the one thing that breaks her. -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_- Very slow burn - don't say I didn't warn you! But worth it, I promise. Enemies to lovers vibes. Intended for audiences 18+

Seventh-grader Alexa Hart's world is defined by loss and loneliness. Her mother is gone, her brother lies in a coma, and her father offers nothing but neglect. At school, she's friendless and relentlessly bullied-especially by Blake-and at home, her father's new marriage saddles her with five stepbrothers who openly despise her. As Alexa's isolation and despair deepen, the question looms: can she ever find a path to happiness, or is she destined to remain trapped in misery? Note: This story contains swearing, abuse, self-harm, depression, and other sensitive topics.

Everyone's going through something-but not everyone wears it like Hali does. She's 17, stuck in a body she's always trying to shrink, surrounded by people who are just as lost as she is. Her days are filled with pills she doesn't remember taking, mirrors she can't stand to look at, and a friend group that survives off drugs, trauma, and sarcasm. Drew's been around since forever and sees too much. Rico jokes through the pain. Alex barely speaks but somehow understands. And Hali? She's trying to pretend she's fine while quietly falling apart. This story isn't about healing. Not yet. It's about what it feels like to break in silence- and what happens when someone finally notices.
