Riley doesn't remember the last time someone asked if she was okay. Not really asked. Not in the way that meant they were going to stay for the answer. She is seventeen years old and she has already learned the most important lesson this town has to offer - that people leave. They leave with promises folded neatly in their pockets, with good intentions they fully mean at the time, with duffel bags and bus tickets and fifteen days that turn into three years without a single word. They leave, and the ones left behind learn to stop waiting by the window. They learn to stop setting an extra plate. They learn to breathe around the absence until the absence just becomes the air. Riley works the late shift. She carries drinks to tables without being asked twice. She doesn't flinch at loud voices anymore. She doesn't cry at things that used to make her cry. She has become very good at being invisible in a room full of people - and even better at being invisible to herself. This is not the life she imagined. But it is the life she has. And she has made her peace with it, quietly, the way you make peace with things you never had a choice about. She is not waiting for anyone anymore. She stopped doing that a long time ago. Until the night a familiar face walks through the door - and three brothers who left her behind must now face what their absence built. Because blood doesn't forget. And neither does Riley.

Céline is an expert at disappearing. After years of abuse, she has learned to make herself small, starving away the body that drew unwanted attention, hiding behind silence, perfecting invisibility. When her mother finally escapes and reunites with her first love-the Don of the Italian mafia and Céline's biological father-Céline is thrust into a world of impossible wealth, fiercely protective brothers, and power she doesn't yet understand. But she doesn't expect him. Perceptive, powerful, and devastatingly attractive, the heir to the Russian mafia sees past every defense she has built. Falling for the dangerous son of her father's ally means navigating a world where the greatest risk isn't being hurt again, it's finally letting herself be seen. Some loves are worth destroying yourself for. Some are worth learning to heal for instead.

WE ALL KNOW THIS ENDS IN BLOOD. ______________ In the dark streets of Chicago, a girl is fighting the demons of her late mother's past with just a box of cigarettes and a black steel dagger. She remains in the shadows just as she likes. Until she's in the wrong place at the right time, she begins to run, somehow straight into the police's hands. With no known relative, a DNA test lands her in Sicily, Italy, with a father who didn't know about her, three older brothers who want no relation to her, and a stepmother who pretends she doesn't exist. The Accardi family has many secrets, many enemies, and many sins connected to their family name. And soon, Athena learns that as long as you are an Accardi, It always ends in blood.

Carina was six when she first stood outside the gates of the Zavattini estate. Only seven when she was sent to a suburbia five hours away. Being an affair child and a daughter, she grew up knowing exactly where she stood; at the lowest in the family hierarchy. She knew no one actually cared about her. But that was fine because there was nothing to envy about the women who were cared for in that family. At suburbia, she could sneak out to parties, read books, join the debate club, write essays on seagulls, dream about marine biology and California. She only had to return home few times a year during holidays; play quiet ,obedient girl with no opinions and leave again. Life was normal, mostly. Until the day her brother arrived at the school to take her home. And suddenly, Carina was pulled back into the world of rules, power and danger. For how long could she pretend to not feel, to not have opinions! Carina is 16 as she is standing in front of the same gates again. ( a non cliche mostly)

Book 3 of Royal series. "Not all victories are won in war; some are won in the heart." Shattered. Broken. Alone. That was the truth Aksh chose to live with after burning every bridge that had once led him home. Betrayal had not spared him either; its flames had licked his skin, leaving marks deeper than scars. For the first time in his life, the boy who fought every battle head-on found himself with nothing left to fight for. But fate is rarely so easily dismissed. Just when Aksh begins to sink into the ashes of his own making, the one he least expects refuses to let him disappear. The eldest returns with a quiet, unyielding promise: no matter how far you chose to twist the knife, I still won't let you run. And the youngest? She simply refuses to loosen her grip, holding on with the kind of love that does not ask permission. What follows is not a war of swords, but of truths long buried and wounds long ignored. As secrets surface and silence breaks, the brothers must confront the fragile space between pride and forgiveness. Because coming home is not about crossing a threshold - it is about daring to believe you still belong there. The Forgiven Royal is a story of redemption and reckoning, of fractured bonds learning to mend, of love that survives even the fiercest infernos. Above all, it is Aksh's journey toward the hardest victory of all... forgiving himself... and allowing himself to be forgiven.
