Camden Edson never believed in happily ever after. Men were fine for a good time, but love? Commitment? Marriage? Those belonged in fairy tales, not real life. After watching her father walk away from her family for another woman, Camden built her life around one simple rule: never depend on anyone. Then she met Theo Sullivan. Somehow, the brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon slipped past every defense she had. He became the one person who made forever feel possible. Two years into their marriage, Camden is thriving as a clinical psychologist while Theo begins an intense cardiovascular fellowship at the same hospital. Long hours and opposite schedules leave little time for each other, but every stolen moment reminds Camden why she took the chance. Until one weekend changes everything. When Camden receives an emergency call that her estranged father is being rushed into open-heart surgery, she desperately tries to reach Theo. His phone goes straight to voicemail. Then she calls his best friend. Only to discover Theo was never where he claimed he would be. As old wounds rip open, Camden is forced to confront more than the possibility of her husband's betrayal. She's suddenly responsible for saving the life of the man whose own infidelity destroyed her family, while questioning whether the marriage she fought to believe in was built on the very lie she swore she'd never survive twice. Some hearts can be repaired. Others never heal the same way.

He broke her once. She survived losing him. Now he's back like nothing ever happened-and she's not sure she can survive that. Laura Hayes thought divorce would end the heartbreak. Instead, it only changed its shape. A year after walking away from the man who broke her, whom a part of her still loves, Laura is surviving rather than living, carrying loneliness like a second skin. And Adrian, buried beneath pride and regret, is discovering far too late that losing her hurts more than admitting he was wrong. When life keeps pulling them back into each other's orbit, old wounds reopen alongside something far more dangerous: hope. Because some loves do not disappear when a marriage ends. Some hearts never really leave.

Silva wants what he shouldn't have and takes what he can't desire. He should've known. Irisa offsets the brittle balance of diabolical cruelty, but it's a forgivable transgression that he's willing to make an exception for. She's a simple girl with a special smile; something opposite of him as it burns into his skin with regret. Regret that he doesn't have her. He doesn't know if he wants to kiss the smile away or wrap his hand around her fragile neck until the light fades to black. He's a nightmare wrapped in visceral ink, a frighteningly obsessive man with missing morals. Silva would rip his heart out if she asks; he is selfishly generous to her whims. *** This contains sensitive material that will be triggering to some, reader discretion is advised. Mature contents.

Some marriages don't end because love disappears. They end because grief quietly takes its place. Layla Scott and Tristan Scott were once the couple everyone envied.

Instead, they buried three babies. Each loss leaves Layla drowning in guilt, convinced her broken body has failed the man she loves. Tristan hides his own heartbreak behind impossible work hours, believing that carrying the burden alone is what a husband is supposed to do. Until the silence between them becomes louder than their vows. When one devastating mistake shatters the fragile trust holding their marriage together, both Layla and Tristan are forced to confront a painful truth: Sometimes love isn't enough to save what grief has already broken. If Only is an emotionally charged story of love, betrayal, forgiveness, and self-discovery-about two people learning that the greatest act of love isn't always holding on. Sometimes... it's finding the strength to let go.

QUEENS OF CHOAS SERIES PREQUEL!!! Once upon a time, a girl was sent away. No trial. No second chance. Just a story everyone believed because it was easier that way. Five years later, she comes back. This is the part where, in a Disney movie, she'd forgive everyone, hug her family, and learn the power of love. Instead, Gianna De Santis learns how to break bones, keep secrets, and survive rooms that were never meant to be safe. The family expects a villain. The kingdom expects obedience. And some Princes are not always charming . There are no fairy godmothers here. Only men with power, women with knives, and lies that refuse to stay buried. And while everyone's busy wondering if Gianna is still dangerous- They forget to ask the real question: What happens when the girl they tried to erase comes back sharper... and finally decides to stop being nice? Because this isn't a Disney movie. And the girl who survived the tower doesn't believe in happily ever after- She believes in consequences.
