Navyaa Greene thought she had her happily ever after. She was moments away from marrying her middle-school sweetheart when Benjamin Moore never showed up. Instead, he ended their forever with a two-line text, choosing freedom over the woman who loved him. Eight years later, Benjamin has everything he thought he wanted, NBA championships, fame, and fortune, but none of it fills the emptiness she left behind. When fate throws Navyaa back into his life, Benjamin is forced to face the consequences of the biggest mistake he's ever made. The woman he abandoned has built a new life, she's raising a son he never knew existed, and she's in love with the one man who refuses to let her go, his former best friend. Some mistakes cost a lifetime. Benjamin only hopes this one doesn't cost him the only family he's ever truly wanted.

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.

A Baby Between Us Aria Bennett never imagined that one mistake could change her entire life. She once believed Damien Laurent was the man she would spend forever with. But love can be cruel... And sometimes, the person you love the most can become the person who hurts you the deepest. When Aria finds herself carrying a secret that could change everything, Damien refuses to believe her. His pride, anger, and the influence of those around him push him to make a decision he will eventually regret. Heartbroken and with nowhere else to turn, Aria walks away. She leaves behind the man she once loved, determined to rebuild her life and protect what matters most to her. Then she meets Ethan Hayes. Kind. Patient. Protective.

But as Aria slowly begins to heal, Damien starts realizing that perhaps he made the biggest mistake of his life. And by the time he understands what he lost... It may already be too late. Between secrets, heartbreak, jealousy, forgiveness, unexpected love, and choices that cannot be undone... Aria must decide: Will she return to the man who once broke her heart? Or will she choose the man who stayed when everyone else walked away? Sometimes, losing someone is the only way to realize how much they meant. And sometimes... the love you never expected becomes the love you were always meant to find. ❤️

By N.S. Brown In the high-stakes world of Manhattan finance, Julian Brown can balance any ledger-except the one that matters most. For two years, Julian has been running a dangerous deficit in his marriage. He has quietly diverted the financial resources, time, and emotional security of his wife, Clara, to prop up the manufactured crises of Chloe, his toxic childhood friend. To Julian, it's the ultimate ego trip: playing the noble protector to a fragile bird while treating his wife as a low-maintenance asset who can survive on the freezing scraps of his neglect. Clara is a brilliant independent designer built on quiet dignity. She doesn't complain when Julian forgets her birthday, or when the cheap convenience-store necklace he buys her turns her skin green. She assumes they are a team saving for a future upstate. She has no idea her resilience is being used as a slush fund to buy another woman's applause. But cheap materials can't withstand the friction of reality. When a sudden, devastating overdraft exposes Julian's systemic deception, his elaborate fortress of excuses crumbles. Clara doesn't scream. With cold, absolute clarity, she cuts the mutual liabilities, packs her sketches, and walks out the door-leaving Julian with a perfectly balanced, entirely bankrupt life. Now, the arbitrage is over. To win back the only woman who ever loved him unconditionally, Julian must face the brutal valuation of his own cowardice. But when a foundation is left in the dark for too long, some cracks are too deep for a ledger to fix. A deeply emotional, high-angst contemporary marriage-in-crisis romance featuring heavy betrayal and intense emotional reconciliation.

** "Maximilian?" I blink at her silently. She just called my name. By my name. Instead of feeling repulsed and detested by that sound I instead can't feel anything anymore. All I can see is her. My breath stops for a moment again. Just like back in the tent. "Yes it's me." I say, quickly looking away from her side. "Why are you here?" She asks me coldly taking my hand away from her cheek. She then sits up straight in the sofa, far from me. I silently drop my hand back to my lap. I kind of felt disappointed. "Why can't I be here? Can't a husband visit his wife whenever he wants?" She shakes her head. "You're not like other husbands. And I'm not like other wives. You're a husband that's still hung up on their first love. And I'm a wife that wants nothing to do with you." She says with her tired eyes, after having slept only for 2 hours. _____________________________ Maximillian, the Emperor of the Kaisenarch Empire, who still love his first love. Elizabeth, the Empress that only wanted her husbands love She had taken years to realize, that maybe her marriage was always doomed, from the beginning. And her feelings will never be reciprocated.

A story about a smart woman who loves her husband, her son and her life. When she learns that her husband isn't the man she thought he was, she works on giving her son the life he deserves. It's also about a lying and cheating man, who thought he was clever enough to avoid honesty and accountability in his life. Sometimes making a mistake and then sincerely apologizing, just might just not be enough. "Mommy, why is daddy and that lady nakey hugging?" My son innocently and loudly asks, while his father seems to be trying to locate his pants. Spoiler alert, they are on the floor under my feet, by the door, not anywhere near where he and his 'nakey' friend are sprawled on the couch. The woman shrieks, Kayley and I both fumble for the light switch just as River hits the button for daddy's 'magic office windows', which are now fully visible to the entire office floor, and all 127 employees are staring at and sharing my horror as my husband and his whatever she is are naked and trying to get dressed. Well damn, happy Wednesday to me.

What do you do when the man who promised forever keeps breaking you in private? When every "I love you" is a lie? When you find proof of not one affair but three? I stayed silent for six years. Then I left in the loudest silence he'd ever heard. One suitcase. All the evidence. My wedding ring is on top. Gone. This is the story of how I rebuilt myself-and how he watched me rise from the ashes of his betrayal.

She came home early. She shouldn't have. Noa Reevse is a therapist. She spends her days sitting across from people in the worst moments of their lives, holding their pain with both hands, and sending them home better. She is very good at it. She is also, it turns out, very good at not looking too closely at her own. Until the afternoon, she opens a door she was never supposed to open. Fifteen seconds. That's all she records. That's all she needs. And then, a week later, she puts on a burgundy dress, walks into her husband's televised political forum, and raises her hand. She has the video. She never has to play it. His silence does the work for her. "Hurricane Season" is about what happens after the worst imaginable betrayal, after the divorce papers are filed, after the woman who taught everyone else how to survive the unsurvivable has to figure out how to do it herself. For readers who need their protagonist to be the storm.
