Minutes before Mariah gets married, her maid of honor shows her a viral video. In it, a woman tells the internet about the magical night she spent with a handsome stranger in Nashville-and asks for help finding the man she believes is her soulmate. Mariah happens to know exactly where he is. He's waiting at the end of the aisle for her. After creating a viral moment of her own, Mariah spends the next two months hiding from the unwanted fame that turned the worst day of her life into a public spectacle-and transformed her into the infamous Burn It All Bride. Then she meets a gruff, devastatingly handsome stranger on a flight who has absolutely no idea who she is. With him, she doesn't have to be the heartbroken bride millions of strangers think they know. She can just be Ivy. And the quiet Texan beside her becomes Tex. When an emergency landing strands them for one night in the city Mariah has cast as the villain in her story, she is determined to make the best of it with the man who is already making Nashville feel different. As the attraction between them becomes impossible to ignore, they agree on three rules. One night. No real names. No promises beyond morning. And no chance of ever forgetting each other. They walk away the next morning believing their perfect night will remain exactly that-a beautiful memory neither of them is allowed to chase. Mariah is still rebuilding the life her cheating fiancé destroyed. And Tex... Tex is trying to start over after betrayal cost him everything he worked years to create. Until fate brings them together again on Beaumont Ranch, and the stranger Mariah promised to leave behind becomes impossible to walk away from twice. Some nights break your heart. Some nights heal you. And some nights change you forever.

After fleeing her marriage, Aspen accepts a deal she never wanted, becoming the hidden nurse for a violent biker organization in exchange for her brother's and husband's lives. Exiled to a remote mountain safe house, Aspen survives alone for five years, learning how to hunt, fight, and protect herself in ways she never imagined. Freedom comes at a brutal cost. When her ex-husband Ransom Duke, the gang's mechanic, is shot and brought to her door, the past crashes back into her carefully controlled solitude. Aspen wants nothing to do with him until the truth comes out. The betrayal that destroyed their marriage was staged to save her life, and the man she hated has been suffering in silence ever since. Now hunted by rival bikers, betrayed from within, and forced to run, Aspen and Ransom must rely on each other to survive. As secrets unravel and loyalties turn deadly, Aspen discovers she was never just collateral damage; she was the prize. With the RCMP, witness protection, and a violent criminal empire closing in, Aspen must decide whether to disappear forever... or burn everything down to protect the man who never stopped loving her. Some loves are worth running for. Some are worth fighting for.

They took my family, my freedom, and my future. Six years ago, I became the easiest story to sell. By the time the verdict was read, the truth had already been buried beside the people I loved, and I was sentenced for crimes that never belonged to me. Prison didn't break me. It refined me. It taught me patience, discipline, and that the people who think they've won are usually the least prepared to lose. Now I'm free, but the people responsible didn't spend six years standing still. My husband is still celebrated. The woman who helped him betray me still sleeps peacefully every night in my family's home. The rest of the world still believes the Briars ended with me. They never accounted for, Onyx Alastor. My first love. The one wound time never quite closed. The boy I walked away from became the man they should've feared, and now he's offering to turn everything he's built against the people who destroyed my family. All he wants in return...is another chance. I don't owe him one. I don't want him back. He's an ex for a reason. But I need the empire he built and will take great pleasure in using what he's become. I didn't survive six years behind bars just for revenge. I survived because someone had to finish what they started. They wrote my family's ending. Now I get to write theirs.
