Iris Anderson is living every woman's dream, red carpet premieres, a hit TV show, and the face of a new luxury campaign. But behind the flashbulbs, her marriage to Ezra, the love of her life, is crumbling. When she caught him cheating, everything breaks. Except, nothing can break publicly. Tied to contracts and image deals, Iris must keep the facade alive for one more year. As she pours herself into her role with haunting brilliance, she finds herself spiralling into buried memories, the trauma she never faced, and the secret she thought she left behind six years ago. Meanwhile, Ezra, haunted by guilt and quietly losing the life he built, is determined to make things right. But redemption isn't romantic. It's messy, it's hard, and it might be too late. And as whispers of the past threaten to surface, Iris must decide if healing means forgiveness, or if letting go is the only way forward.

Jenson and Victoria are madly in love. They're the kind of couple that make love look effortless - best friends, lovers, ride or dies. Little do they know, outside forces are circling, rearing to rip them apart. What happens when betrayal, jealousy and lies threaten to shatter everything?

Before the road to redemption... There was the fire that lit the match. Ava Sinclair has spent her life fighting for survivors. As a trauma counsellor, she knows the system doesn't always protect the vulnerable; it protects itself. And when a violent man walks into her clinic and turns her world upside down, Ava is forced to confront just how broken the rules really are. Police Chief Harlan Gray built his life on control. Military discipline. Moral clarity. Black and white. But when he arrests the wrong woman, based on a lie, a weapon, and the word of a man, something in him begins to crack. Ava is furious. Harlan is intrigued. She challenges everything he believes in. She exposes what he's been too careful to see. But what begins as a clash between fire and order slowly ignites into something else, something neither of them is prepared for. Until jealousy, sabotage, and betrayal threaten to burn them both. And when a dangerous woman from Harlan's past sets her sights on Ava, it's not just their reputations on the line, it's their future. Because some love stories aren't born in the light. They're forged in the fallout. Series Note: Unlawful Hearts is the emotional prequel to No Redemption Road, exploring the origin of Ava and Harlan's story.

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. Remi's journey includes scenes of assault and survival. These events are portrayed with care, never glorified, and written to reflect the raw truth of what she endures.

*serious editing is going on* She married a stranger who promised forever-unaware it was all a lie crafted to destroy her. Elena Bianchi, the gentle daughter of a powerful Italian politician, returns to Florence hoping to build a new life far from her family's tainted legacy. But fate has other plans when she crosses paths with Adrian Moretti-a man so charismatic, so precise in his affection, that she falls hopelessly in love. What she doesn't know is that Adrian is her enemy. Behind his warm smiles and tender kisses is a heart consumed by rage. Years ago, his sister was assaulted and silenced by men connected to the Bianchi name-and Elena's existence is now his weapon of revenge. With the full support of his cruel and twisted family, Adrian marries her... only to drag her into a nightmare. After the wedding, the truth unravels. She's beaten, starved, isolated-treated worse than a servant in her own home. And when whispers of a fate mirroring Adrian's sister begin to surface, Elena realizes she may not survive this marriage. But something begins to shift. Adrian starts to see the innocence in her eyes, the kindness in her broken smile-and guilt claws at his soul. Now he must choose: destroy the woman he once vowed to ruin, or risk everything, even his family's wrath, to save her. In a world built on betrayal and blood, can love survive the weight of vengeance?

Once the youngest princess of the Italian mafia, Natalia was raised to obey-to smile, to submit, to accept a future chosen for her. Instead, she chose herself. Now she's back in New York.

Natalia returns different. Stronger. Untouchable in ways no one expects. She's built a life of her own, far from the shadows she was born into-and she carries a secret that could change everything. As old feelings resurface and fate pulls her back into the orbit of the man she never forgot, Natalia must decide how much of her heart she's willing to risk again. Because love in their world is never simple. And some secrets aren't just dangerous- They're legacy-changing.
