This novel explores the long-lasting effects of infidelity, divorce, and betrayal on a family, while examining love, forgiveness, and the possibility of healing. -- For eighteen years, Ava Vance has divided her life between two homes. Her parents have mastered birthdays, graduations, and holidays without ever becoming a family again. To Ava, it's simply the way life has always been. When her mother leaves on a weekend vacation with her boyfriend, Ava stays with her father. While searching through old boxes, she stumbles upon home videos from a life she never knew-a house filled with laughter, family dinners, bedtime stories, and two parents who looked deeply in love. Watching those tapes, Ava realizes she isn't longing for the past. She's longing for the family she never got to have. Determined to bring back her family together, she plans one final birthday gift: a family trip with her parents and siblings. She hopes two weeks together might remind Christopher and Melissa Vance of what they once had. Instead, it forces them to confront the conversation they've avoided for eighteen years-and the devastating truth behind the divorce that changed all of their lives forever. Because sometimes love survives. Trust doesn't. -- ©️ All Rights Reserved - 2026, M. M. Bennett.

The hardest part wasn't being in love. It was deciding whether love was enough to stay. After years of building a marriage, raising a family, and believing they could survive anything together, one betrayal changes everything. Trust is shattered, old wounds are reopened, and the life they created no longer feels safe. For one of them, staying means learning whether forgiveness is possible. For the other, it means facing the damage they caused and proving that remorse can become real change. Told through both of their perspectives, *Still Choosing You* follows two broken people as they confront the truth about their marriage, their faith, and the choices that brought them to the edge of losing everything. Walking away may be easier. Choosing each other again will require more than love. *Still Choosing You* is a Christian romance about betrayal, accountability, forgiveness, family, and the painful, imperfect journey of rebuilding a marriage that almost didn't survive.

No blurb yet, but in short: marriage-in-crisis. Both working professionals. She's a public defender; he's a court reporter. Will have emotional cheating on hero's side. Betrayal in that emotional cheating sense, grovel, and redemption. Will have OW drama, but I'm not sure how much yet and to what degree. It will be posted on Wattpad and free, but eventually I may pull it for KU--depending--once it's completed and edited. A new chapter(s) will be published on Fridays. At no specific time.

For years, Kate has been defined by her illness. Through every diagnosis, flare, setback, and disappointment, her husband Kevin was there beside her. So when he suddenly announces that he's accepted a months-long overseas assignment, Kate finds herself feeling conflicted, abandoned, and alone for the first time in over a decade. Realizing she'd lost herself somewhere between tracking good days and bad days, Kate sets out to reclaim the parts of herself she left behind-her dreams, her confidence, and her independence. With her brother Mike's return from military service on the horizon and an unexpected reunion with his longtime best friend Tom, Kate begins to imagine a future that looks very different from the life she was living. With Tom's help she even tackles something she thought she'd never do when she signs up for a running club. But the more she changes, the harder it becomes to ignore the growing cracks in the life she built-and the possibility that some relationships survive only as long as the people inside them aren't growing. When she and Kevin are reunited and the future she thought she had begins to unravel, Kate discovers that the hardest part of a race isn't learning how to keep going-it's figuring out where you're supposed to stop running.

A perfect pair. A small tear. A betrayal too hurtful to spare.

What are you doing here all alone? I was going crazy looking for you for the last fifteen minutes. What the hell, Ella? You know I hate it when you disappear on me like that." Jerking me towards him, he caught me in a very tight hug, almost cutting off my air. "Hey, did you just sniff me?" I gasped. "I did. Your smell calms me," Mason husked. Pushing him away, I looked up at him. "Your heart is racing," I rasped as I placed my hand on his chest, feeling the hard plane of his chest under the smooth fabric of his shirt. "Were you really panicked?" I smiled mischievously. "What if one day I leave you?" Before I could finish the sentence, he had me pinned against the wall, his head buried in my hair. "I would find you even if I had to go to the pit of hell," he said. "And what if you can't find me?" I asked. "I will kill myself because I can't imagine a world without you by my side," he replied without hesitation. My husband loves me. Even when his family pressured him to choose. He chose me, he chose us. After 10 years of marriage, when I couldn't give him the family we had dreamed of under the starry sky, with his head resting on my lap, he never once made me feel inadequate or less. We were enough for each other until her. The evidence was devastating: late-night "work" calls that lingered too long, hotel receipts, photos that made my stomach drop. When did he let go of my hand? When did he break the promises he made with me? He hasn't changed; he still can't keep his hands to himself, he still looks at me with the same intensity, same passion, same love. So why? Why did he do it? I always believed our love was different-untouchable, forged in the kind of devotion that poets write about and time cannot erode. But I guess I was wrong. #Strongfemale #Owdrama #Cheating #Marriageintrouble #Affair #Betrayal #Possessive #Jealoushero
