Adeline wasn't planning on having a panic attack in the middle of a thunderstorm-but that's exactly how she met Leo. Head down, heart racing, soaking wet... and suddenly crashing into a stranger with calm eyes and steady hands. Leo's the last person anyone would expect to be soft. He's an FBI agent, used to chaos, and once had a reputation for being the guy who didn't stick around. But Adeline? She's sweet, sheltered, and the kind of girl who can light up a room without even trying. The second their paths crossed, he knew she was going to mean something. And she did... she meant everything. He didn't mean to fall for the girl who's scared of storms. She didn't plan on it, but she trusted him faster than anyone else. But when two messy hearts collide, sometimes the calm comes after the thunder. This isn't one of those over-the-top, cringy romances. There's no love triangle, no toxic drama, and no dragging things out with a million side characters. Just a good timeline, real connection, and all the wholesome moments we secretly dream about. Leo and Adeline are loyal, sweet, and actually communicate (shocking, I know). You'll laugh, smile, maybe cry - and you'll definitely wish you had a Leo of your own. If you're a reader who's tired of the recycled tropes, toxic drama, and characters who can't get their lives together? Same. I've been in the Wattpad trenches too, and that's exactly why I wrote this book. It's everything I wanted to read but couldn't find. So consider this your sign: you're about to find your new favorite. You're gonna fall for Leo and Adeline - I just know it. - Love, yours truly, DaddyMaddyy

When love is all you have left to lose... how do you let it go? I should've known better than to fall for Shane Montgomery. He's rich, revered, and bound to a legacy that was never meant to include a girl like me. A girl born of shadows, shaped by secrets, and marked by a past that's forever tainted me. But Shane didn't care. With that cocky smile and relentless charm, he slipped past every wall I built and made promises I was desperate to believe. We said we'd hold on. That no matter how far apart life-or our families-pulled us, we'd always find our way back to each other. But forever is a fragile thing in a world ruled by power and privilege. A world built on lies and secrets, by people who would rather see us shattered than together and happy. Now everything we had is teetering on the edge of ruin-our love, our dreams, and something even more precious... something we never imagined we'd lose. They warned us we wouldn't last. And maybe they were right. Because the deeper the betrayal, the harder the truth cuts. Not all promises are meant to be kept. And love, no matter how true, isn't always enough. In this gripping second installment of the Twisted Path Series, loyalty is tested, love is torn at the seams, and two broken souls must decide if holding on is worth the pain.

He was born to rule. She was forged in fire. But falling in love might be their undoing. I know how to survive. I've been doing it since the day my mother taught me to hide in closets and wait for the monsters to pass. Trusting people? Loving them? That's how you get broken. So when Shane Montgomery-Mr. Golden Boy with his perfect smile and world of privilege-offered to help me, I didn't believe him. Why would someone like him care about someone like me? I'm barely holding my life together-working double shifts, sleeping too little, chasing a future no one thinks I deserve. But Shane is relentless. Not just with tutoring or grades, but with me. With seeing me. Touching the parts of me I've kept buried because needing someone is dangerous. And wanting him? That's a cliff I can't afford to fall from. Still... I'm slipping. Because when he looks at me like I'm his everything-like I'm the only thing he needs, like our love is fated, written into the very fabric of the universe-I almost believe him. And if I allow myself to fall-really fall-it won't just be into his arms. It'll be straight into the wreckage of everything I've fought so hard to survive. In the first installment of the Twisted Path Series, opposites collide, secrets unravel, and two star-crossed lovers cling to each other in a world determined to tear them apart.

"Not all monsters hide in the dark. Some smile when they break you." Annelly I'm in trouble-the kind of trouble that has me fleeing from my life in the middle of the night, leaving everything behind. Ruby Creek, the small town where I grew up, seemed like my safest refuge-until I ran straight into him. James Serrano, the man who shattered my heart, sees through my fear and insists on helping me. He promises to protect me, to be the man I once believed he could be. But trusting him again feels impossible when all I can remember is the pain of his indifference and how easily he erased me from his life. James I like my life simple and carefree-no attachments, no drama, no regrets. But when Annelly Conners reappears, scared, heartbreakingly vulnerable, yet so fiercely captivating, she unravels everything I thought I wanted. If I were smart, I'd walk away like I did before. Instead, I'm breaking every rule I've lived by to protect her-even if it means facing the feelings I swore I'd long buried. She's everything I don't want but seem to need. And now I'm making promises I'm not sure I can keep-because losing her again? That's a risk I refuse to take. In the Broken Redemption World, one woman's fight to reclaim her life collides with a man's war between love and self-preservation-but the danger closing in could destroy them both. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ James & Annelly's story begins here: Book 1 of their Broken Redemption arc.

"Some monsters aren't meant to be feared... but to be loved back into the light." Annelly
 Everything is falling apart, and James is shattering faster than I can reach him. Every step we take toward safety drags him deeper into the darkness and further from me. He's angry, broken, hurting in ways I can't fix-and I'm terrified. Of losing him. Of failing him. Of not being enough to bring him back. But I won't let the man I love go without a fight. Not when he's fought so fiercely for me. Not when I still believe we can find our way back. Regardless of what he wants... it's my turn to save him. Even if loving him through the wreckage is the hardest thing I've ever done. James

The darkness I fought for years is clawing its way back, twisting everything-my thoughts, my control, the man I swore I'd never be again. I'm angry, hurting, unraveling faster than I can contain-and I'm terrified. Of losing her. Of failing her. Of breaking her. Of becoming the very monster she's running from. When I said I'd protect her, I meant from every danger-including me. But she won't give up. She won't back down. She's still fighting for us with everything she has. She believes love can pull me out of this...
But I'm terrified I'll destroy every last piece of her hope long before she saves me. In the Broken Redemption World, every step toward survival threatens their love-and salvation may come with a price neither is ready to pay. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 3 of James & Annelly's Broken Redemption arc, the emotional conclusion to their story.
