A gold medalist, newly married, is revealed as a cheater in his post-gold medal win press conference.

They've both lost someone-but in very different ways. Tommy Doyle had loved his wife before he lost her. Diane Callahan survived her husband before he was killed.

They both see something in each other and, before they realize it, that something begins to grow. Until Tommy discovers the truth he never saw coming. Something he believes he can't overcome. Shattered, he pushes Diane away, breaking the heart of a woman who was only just learning how to trust again. By the time he realizes his mistake, it's too late. Now he has to find a way to take back what he lost-what he threw away. Now he will need to prove that love after loss is still worth fighting for. A story of grief, healing, and second chances. TRIGGER WARNINGS: This story contains themes that may be difficult for some readers, including grief after the death of a spouse, emotional trauma, and recovery after loss.

When a high school art teacher catches a student vandalizing another student's hair, she never expects his hot uncle to storm into her classroom-or ask her to dinner. Janet Scannell has seen it all in her twelve years of teaching at Harborfields Junior and Senior High. But when Caleb Foster dumps purple paint on the mean girl's hair and his uncle Mason shows up ready to defend him, she's in for way more than a typical detention supervision. As Janet and Mason navigate their unexpected attraction, a darker mystery unfolds. Items are disappearing around school: tools from shop class, equipment from the science lab, and food from the cafeteria. When the principal threatens to call the police-which Janet and Mason both think is a complete overreaction-they decide to work together to catch the thief themselves. What they discover will break their hearts and change their lives forever. Because sometimes the best families are the ones you never see coming, and sometimes love shows up in detention with drywall dust in its hair. A standalone romantic comedy with heart, humor, and a found family that will make you believe in second chances.

Andi Doyle built her life on her own terms. She owns a coffee shop in South Boston that she's poured everything into, shows up fiercely for the people she loves, and learned one thing the hard way: she won't be an afterthought. Not for anyone. So when Gavin Byrne walks into her life with quiet intensity and a smile that makes her forget herself, she lets herself believe this one might be different. He's steady. Present. Real. Until she realizes she's been waiting for a place in his life he never fully made room for. Gavin doesn't understand what he's done until the distance between them is undeniable. He thought he had left his past where it belonged. He didn't see how easily he defaulted to keeping parts of his life separate - smoothing things over, choosing the safer explanation, minimizing what mattered most when it felt complicated. By the time he recognizes the cost of that mistake, Andi is already walking away. Fighting his way back to her is one thing. But reconciliation doesn't bring peace. The past he thought was settled resurfaces with its own agenda, threatening the life he's fought to protect and forcing Andi straight into the center of it. Now loving each other isn't the only risk. They'll have to decide whether what they're building is strong enough to withstand someone determined to tear it apart - or if some mistakes really do turn almost into never... or into always.

Sorcha MacAlasdair, daughter of a proud Highland laird, is like the wild heather that carpets the hills of her homeland-resilient, and impossible to uproot. Betrothed since childhood, her marriage was arranged to secure an alliance and strengthen two powerful clans. She asked for nothing from the union, though once she allowed herself to hope that love might follow. Calum MacRae resented the duty forced upon him. To him, Sorcha was obligation made flesh, a political bargain that stole the future he believed he deserved. His heart remained with Elspeth, the childhood friend who promised him choice instead of sacrifice. Against his father's warning, Calum turned his back on the woman he had taken as wife, meeting her loyalty with scorn. But war does not wait for wounded pride. When Calum rides to battle, he returns to a keep scarred by conflict and to a clan no longer looking to him for strength. The loyalties he once took for granted have shifted, and the bride he dismissed now stands at the heart of Strathloch. Now the man who once sought to break her must prove himself worthy-or risk losing his clan, his legacy, and the only woman strong enough to stand beside him. Content Warnings: Public hangings, period-appropriate violence, emotional infidelity, referenced stillbirth, betrayal/treachery within the clan, emotional cruelty, and themes of loyalty, duty, and power imbalance.
