That Grayson Sterling-the man who made her feel seen-would stand by her side when it mattered most. But when the laughter in the boardroom got too loud, he said nothing. When they humiliated her, he looked away. And when she broke... she broke alone. Now she's done playing the girl who waits. She's taking her power back-piece by painful piece. And if Grayson wants her forgiveness, he'll have to crawl for it. 𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐬𝐡𝐞'𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐇𝐞 𝐢𝐬. GRAYSON STERLING had everything-status, control, and the quiet belief that Lillie would always be his. But it took losing her to realize he never really had her at all. Now he's haunted by the echo of her silence, obsessed with the fire in her eyes, and desperate to prove he's still the man she once loved... or at least the man he should have been.

Blurb For twenty years, she built her life around Ronin - the man she met in university, the father of her son, the partner she thought she knew. But one winter afternoon, a chance glimpse through a café window shatters everything she's clung to. Reeling from betrayal and years of quietly diminishing herself, she walks away from the home they shared, from the son who doesn't understand, and from the woman she's become. As she tries to rebuild a life on her own terms, she must face the hardest truth: she has always been second best in Ronin's heart and maybe in her son's, too. Tender, raw, and unflinching, Second Best again is the story of a woman learning to choose herself, even if it means starting over with nothing but her own name.

But when years of neglect and unspoken grief collide with her husband's devastating mistake, everything begins to crumble. Caden Barrett has always been the fixer-at work, at home, and in his marriage. But some things can't be solved with late-night apologies or expensive gifts. To win back Felicity's trust, he'll have to face his failures, fight for their future, and learn what it truly means to not only love his wife, but to show that love. Together, they must navigate family turmoil, betrayal, and the painful echoes of the past. Through chaos, heartbreak, and unexpected joys, Felicity and Caden discover that love isn't about perfection-it's about persistence, forgiveness, and choosing each other again and again. This is a story of brokenness and healing, of second chances and the quiet work of love. It is a novel that explores modern marriage, blended families, and courage while asking: when everything shatters, can love be rebuilt stronger than before?

This story is available to read on my Patreon, but a revised and edited version will be coming to Amazon/KU in February 2026. He was silent. A lifetime of poisonous words faded away when he came into my life, convincing me every single insidious whisper had been a lie. He gave me a glimpse into a world where I could be happy, creating a family of my own-one based on unconditional love and zero expectations. Except maybe one. When the moment comes for him to speak up and defend me, he doesn't say a word, and reality comes crashing down on my head. He's not the man I thought he was, but I'm not the same girl he fell in love with, either. I'm stronger now, and I know I deserve better, so when I walk away, he'll be the one left picking up the pieces. There is no cheating, just a TSTL Hero who should've known better.

The Quiet Between is a story about a love that fades slowly, slipping away through silence and growing distance. "I'm in a relationship with someone. It's something real and deep between us. It's getting serious." Cameron said to his wife. "I'm sorry. I know I hurt you, but this wasn't planned. It just happened between me and her. She makes me happy again. And I'm going to see where it goes." Cameron and Sloane's marriage is falling apart. What was once strong had become fragile and strained. As they drift further apart, Cameron, finds comfort in the arms of another woman, a balm to his loneliness and a shot at peace. But even as he reaches for something new, his past with Sloane refuses to let go. Sloane tried to rebuild her life, finding strength in unexpected places and new people, as she worked to forget the past and move forward. But her love for her husband was too strong to be defeated, too deeply rooted to be forgotten. This is a story of heartbreak and healing, of letting go, and holding on. A journey through grief and forgiveness, and the quiet space between the love that was lost and what waits to be found.

****THIS BOOK IS NOW PUBLISHED AND IS FREE WITH KINDLE UNLIMITED. IT IS PUBLISHED UNDER "SCHOOLING LUCY" BY ELTA SAU**** https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C7LL1V5Z When high school chemistry teacher, Roman Drake, first lays eyes on his new student, he's instantly smitten. He's willing to put his career and reputation on the line for a shot at forever with the dark haired beauty. Lucy Thomas can't help crushing on her new teacher. His heated stares, casual touches and innuendo, leads her to believe that just maybe her desire isn't one-sided. ****Author Note: Well, I can hardly call myself "Smutty Romance" without writing a smut heavy book. This is a quick, very dirty, insta-love read. Tropes are student/teacher but all characters are consenting and 18 and over. Because of the content and my paranoia (😅) I'll only be keeping this live for a couple of weeks due to the content and not wanting WP to pull it (even though it does follow the rules). I'll eventually make it available on KU once I submit for editing. This book has no triggers (that I can think of) and has zero angst.****
