My cousin always referred to us as the bad jokes, as in...a blonde, a brunette and a redhead walk into a bar. I'm the blonde, and this is my story. When I was 18, a psychic told me to watch for the man with two hearts. That didn't make much sense, so I lived my life, not thinking about her fortune for my life. Then I met Wyatt and we fell in love. Until his ex-fiancee came back to him, and he chose her. Her heart. My heart. Two hearts. He's back, trying to explain things to me, trying to win me back and in the meantime, I'm also dealing with a stalker. But Wyatt's helping with that problem. Unfortunately, he's causing another problem: he's not taking no for an answer.

Sunshine doesn't mean I don't feel the storm." June People say I light up rooms. That I'm all sunshine and softness, with a laugh that sticks and eyes that still believe in happy endings. And maybe I was that girl once. I've spent six years loving a man who made me feel safe and seen. Aaron was everything-steady, strong, my partner in building dreams. He helped me turn my dance studio into something real. He proposed with shaking hands and a tear in his eye. And I said yes with every piece of my heart. But three weeks before our wedding, he told me he needed to meet up with his high school sweetheart. I said yes. I trusted him. Then he came home and told me we had to postpone the wedding. He didn't cheat. He didn't leave. He was just... confused. And that broke me more than anything else could. So I canceled the wedding. I packed away the dress, the flowers, the future I'd memorized. And now? Now I have to figure out who I am without him. I don't know where this story ends. All I know is-I loved him with everything I had. And I won't beg to be chosen twice.

After a passionate night together, Knight walks away hoping he'd be nothing more than a pleasant memory for his perfect human mate. That one night alters Phoebe's entire existence. Months after her encounter with Knightly Blake, she finds two little beans growing strong inside of her. When she looks him up, all she sees are scandals, rehab, and parties. She chooses to keep this secret hoping she'll never cross paths with him again. As FATE has it, they meet at the most inopportune time in an airport of all places. Brought together again, by a little teddy named Chocolate Sprinkles, Knightly discovers a pup who bears a very strong resemblance to the women in his family. Weak and wounded, Knight is disappointed to find that he wasn't able to scent his mate. And is even more in shock when the sweet little girl calls Phoebe mommy. Panicked, Phoebe takes the opportunity when her daughter gives up Knightly's identity and is swarmed by fans. If his assumption is true, the pup is going to need him soon. He might have had the power to let her go once, but the circumstances have changed and she has no idea what kind of danger she'll be in because of him.

Note: This is an exclusive preview. The full novel is available on Amazon and in Kindle Unlimited. A raw, trauma-forward story of survival, found family, and the fire that comes after the fall. Remi Carter never meant to fall for a biker. She didn't plan to walk into a club war. She didn't expect to be hunted, silenced, or broken. But when the life she's built is torn apart, when violence leaves scars deeper than skin, Remi is left with nothing but rage, memory, and a will to survive. Set against the backdrop of a fractured motorcycle club, a tight-knit trauma clinic, and a ranch that offers refuge to the women the world forgot, No Redemption Road is not about being saved. It's about what comes after. After betrayal. After assault. After losing the life you thought was yours. This is a story of women who fight. Of found family. Of love that doesn't fix you, but chooses to stay when you're at your worst. It's the slow burn of healing. Of facing the monsters who stole everything. Of burning it all down, and still choosing to live. This is not a romance with a tragic twist. It's a trauma story with no promises. But at the end of the road... maybe there's still a way home. This is book one in the Redemption Road Series of interconnected stories following different characters surrounding NRR. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story includes themes of trauma, sexual violence, emotional abuse, and psychological manipulation.
