Soraya Bennett thought moving to Chicago with her five-year-old daughter, Kailour, would give them the fresh start they deserved. Leaving behind a deadbeat father and a painful past, the devoted nurse was determined to build a quiet life centered around one thing-her little girl. One summer night, everything changes. After hearing a loud thud outside their apartment, Soraya opens the door to find a young man bleeding on her doorstep. Guided by instinct and her training as a nurse, she brings the stranger inside, treats his injuries, and gives him a safe place to recover. By morning, he's gone, and Soraya assumes she'll never see him again. She couldn't have been more wrong. Two weeks later, a night out with friends leads to an unexpected reunion when she spots the same man performing on stage. Jeffery Kaisen Harris Jr. never forgot the woman who saved his life, and the moment he sees Soraya in the crowd, he knows he has to find her. What begins as gratitude quickly becomes something neither of them expected. As Jeffery finds more reasons to stay in Soraya's life, her peaceful new beginning begins to unravel. With danger, loyalty, and complicated feelings pulling them closer together, Soraya must decide whether protecting her heart is worth pushing away the one man who refuses to forget the night she saved him. After all, she only saved him once. He has no plans of leaving.

When Kailani returns home from college, she has nothing waiting for her-no friends, no job, and no idea what she wants to do next. Until a flyer catches her attention. A lifeguarding position at the private pool inside her gated community seems like the perfect opportunity for a fresh start. What Kailani doesn't expect is to find a new group of friends-and a quiet, seemingly nonchalant lifeguard named Dayvon Daquan Bennett. Dayvon doesn't talk much. He keeps to himself. To everyone else, he's just another lifeguard trying to get through the summer. But Kailani soon realizes there's much more to him than what she thought. Dayvon belongs to a world Kailani knows nothing about-the streets. And Kailani isn't exactly who everyone thinks she is either. When the two cross paths, secrets start coming to light, and they find out more about each other than they ever should have. Because sometimes, the people you meet while trying to start over are the ones who change everything.

Quiet girls don't get the basketball star. At least that's what she's convinced herself. Everyone at Duke knows her - the volleyball sophomore with nice curls, a perfect Instagram, and millions of followers who somehow still feel invisible. Pretty, polished, impossible to truly know. Then there's Cade Mercer. Duke basketball royalty. Future NBA star. Campus obsession. The kind of guy girls fall for instantly. And somehow? He keeps choosing her. Not the loud girls. Not the girls who seem perfectly confident. Her - the quiet girl who overthinks everything and refuses to believe a guy like him could actually mean it.
