For months, Clara has been tormented and treated so poorly it left her crying most nights. The perpetrators? Her two brothers and his two friends, one of whom is supposed to be her fiancé. But after another woman came into the picture they all forgot how much she meant to them, choosing instead to humiliate her on an almost daily basis to amuse this new woman. When she gives up trying to gain their affection back, something unexpected happens. Right before their eyes, she is kidnapped. Her kidnappers? Her three Bad boy school bullies. What will happen when she realizes who they are? What will her loved ones do when she is taken? And why does her heart beat faster whenever they enter her room at night?

(completed) She trusted her with everything-her secrets, her heart, and even her marriage. Delilah never thought betrayal could wear a familiar face. She and Elena have been best friends since they were seven. They've been through everything-school dances, breakups, heartbreak, college, adulthood. Elena was always there. Her constant. Her comfort. Her family. So when Destiny got married, there was no question who would stand by her side. Elena was her maid of honor, holding her bouquet with shaking hands and tearful eyes. What Delilah didn't know was that Elena had already slept with the groom. And she never stopped. For two years, Elena's been sharing her husband. And Delilah, completely unaware, confides in her like always-crying to her about how distant he's become, how cold his touch feels, how something just doesn't feel right. Elena listens patiently, holds her while she cries, and then goes back to the man Delilah calls hers. Every fear Delilah shares is another secret Elena carries straight into his arms. And to twist the knife even deeper, Elena spins her own fantasy. She gushes about a secret lover-a man who spoils her, buys her expensive gifts, and makes her feel like she's finally found the love she's always wanted. Delilah cheers her on. Laughs with her. Supports her. She never suspects the truth. She never thinks to look that close. Because who would ever suspect their best friend? This isn't just infidelity. This is heartbreak in disguise. And by the time Delilah learns the truth.. There may be nothing left of the life she built. "She calls it devotion, he calls it mistake, her friend calls it nothing but all three take. If the crime is shared and the truth is gone, who is the villain when everyone is wrong?"

Everyone says what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. But what if you live there? Eliza thought she had the kind of life everyone wants - a career that was finally taking off, a husband she'd loved since college, and a tight circle who felt more like family than friends. They celebrated birthdays together, showed up for each other's milestones, and knew one another's secrets. Or at least she thought they did.

Two brothers. Two best friends. Fiona met Finlay because of a drunken dare. She fell for him before she knew the truth. A spark pulled Mirabelle and Adair close. She fell for him until his silence said everything he wouldn't. Book 1 of the Trouble Comes in Twos Duology

When Piper leaves the city to take over her grandmother's beloved bakery, she's expecting early mornings, flour-dusted hands, and a chance to rebuild something meaningful.

Flynn's childhood best friend crashes back into town, and within seventy two hours, everything Piper thought she knew begins to unravel. Boundaries blur, truths twist, and one moment overheard is enough to shatter the fragile trust Piper had been building. Walking away should be simple. Necessary, even. But Flynn isn't ready to let her go. Not when he finally understands what he's about to lose. Determined to make things right, Flynn is forced to confront the loyalty he's clung to for years, and the damage it's caused. Because winning Piper back won't take words. It will take tearing down everything he thought mattered and proving, step by painful step, that she comes first. In a story about love, loyalty, and the courage to choose differently, Piper must decide if broken trust can ever be rebuilt, or if some betrayals leave behind nothing but bitter truths.

Vivienne's life changes the moment she turns eighteen and the bond snaps into place-with someone she never expected. At first, it feels like fate. He's charming, attentive, everything a fated connection is supposed to be. But the longer she's with him, the more something feels... off. Subtle at first. Easy to dismiss. Until it isn't. Over time, the bond that was supposed to be a source of love becomes something else entirely-something heavy, something controlling. Vivienne finds herself shrinking in ways she doesn't fully understand, caught in a dynamic she can't quite name but can't escape either. And then, suddenly, it's over. In the quiet aftermath, she's left with space-more than she knows what to do with. Space to breathe. To question. To begin again. That's what leads her to a small farm, to something simple and grounding. She isn't looking for anything more than a furry friend. But she finds Noah instead. He's steady where her past was uncertain. Gentle where things once felt sharp. And though he's long past the age of expecting anything like fate, something about the way they meet feels quietly, impossibly right. This time, there's no pressure. No weight. Just a chance at something real.
