Two years have passed since Janai vanished. when she quietly left with baby Miyoco and Jonah, everything that once held her life together collapsed into silence. There were no goodbyes. No explanations. No trail to follow. Just absence. The only person who ever managed to stay in contact was Ms. Jeanette-the one person Janai trusted enough to occasionally send updates through. Even then, the messages were short, careful, and rare. The kind of updates that told you someone was alive... but not truly reachable. Janai didn't just disappear. She rebuilt herself. She relocated to Glendale, California, on the other side of the state far enough that her old life couldn't accidentally find her again. Not Fazo. Not Ace. Not Marco. Not even her own family. Especially not Jalisa, who once tried to control the direction of her life under the guise of "help." In Glendale, Janai became someone new. She changed her routines, her surroundings, even the way she moved through the world. No familiar places. No shared history echoing behind her. Just her, Miyoco, and Jonah forming a quiet, guarded life that revolved around survival, stability, and secrecy. But peace was never simple for her. Because back where she came from, people didn't forget Janai... they searched for her. Fazo never got closure. And that alone turned into obsession. Ace spiraled in his own confusion, trying to piece together what went wrong. Marco couldn't accept that someone could just disappear without leaving a trace. And her family? They were divided between anger, guilt, and desperation. Still, none of them found her. Because Janai made sure of it.

We were inseparable once-best friends who did everything together. Late nights on the phone, his voice soft and steady as he sang me to sleep. I fell for him somewhere along the way... but I never wanted to lose what we had. The night he told me he was leaving for LA to chase his dream, everything changed. I gave him all of me-my heart, my trust, my innocence-just hours before he walked out of my life. Now, two and a half years later, I'm raising our twins alone-a boy and a girl who deserve the world. He doesn't even know they exist. But secrets don't stay buried forever... and I don't know how much longer I can keep them from their father. This is my story. This is my life as Jordyn Mills.

I guess 𝐁𝐎𝐓𝐇 of us have major abandonment issues....

"We were everything once. Now we're barely a memory." When Soraya's boss moves overseas, she's reassigned to someone from her past. Someone who doesn't even remember her. But Soraya remembers everything. And some distances never close.

She's got walls higher than her heels. He's got ink, secrets... and a body built for sin. Jade Moss doesn't do distractions. As a personal trainer and gym owner in Atlanta's West End, her focus is on her grind-not on smooth-talking men with dark pasts and too much swagger. So when Dave Brewster strolls into her world-tatted up, freshly legit, and fine as hell-she's not impressed. Especially not after their first run-in leaves her tempted and annoyed. But Dave isn't just any man. He's patience wrapped in heat. Danger hiding behind slow smiles. And he's not backing down-especially when he finds out her best friend is dating his. They should've stayed in their lanes. But sweat turns to touches, and tension turns to craving. Just as they're learning to trust what's real, Dave's past comes knocking... and it's not leaving quietly. In a city built on hustle and scars, can love survive the heat? Or will the fire burn them both down first?
