On the night of her twentieth birthday, Hanna plans to do the one thing no wolf has ever willingly done. Accept rejection from her fated mate. As an orphan, Hanna has spent years in the fringes of the packs- a spectator, never a participant. And over the last few weeks, she has watched Alphason Leif pretend she doesn't exist. The bond between them is real but Leif has made his choice. And Hanna refuses to spend the rest of her life with that target on her back. Sometimes even a rejection has to be owned with pride. She has six weeks before her life was going to change forever. Anyone else would just wait for the inevitable...but not Hanna. Leif does not know that everything he has planned was about to explode leaving only regrets. Both Leif and Hanna are both are just two cards on a deck. But noone expected Hanna to be a wildcard.

In emergency medicine, the golden hour is the crucial sixty-minute window after a traumatic injury-the brief span of time when the right care can mean the difference between survival and loss. Dr. Mason Carpenter lives for that hour. At St. Mary's Trauma Center, he is the golden boy of the Emergency Department. He's brilliant and calm under pressure. He's addicted to the adrenaline, the thrill, the absolute rush of saving patients knocking on death's door. At home, he's a devoted husband to his high school sweetheart - the love of his life - Honey. Or, he used to be. Honey Carpenter has loved Mason since they were fourteen, since he was the gangly boy with hearts in his eyes who stumbled through asking her out for ice cream. She stood beside him through medical school, residency, crushing debt, sleepless nights, and every sacrifice it took to build the life they dreamed about. Now she is pregnant with their first child. And Mason is married to his work. He's missing ultrasound appointments, the gender reveal, the baby shower, and, most importantly, he's not there to support Honey - who's having an incredibly difficult first pregnancy. Honey feels her husband is drifting farther and farther away into the ED, and no matter how many times she tries to tell him she is lonely, exhausted, and afraid, Mason gives her the same answer. "They need me." But Honey needs him too. As her pregnancy progresses, her loneliness twists into something darker, but her doctor dismisses her symptoms as "first-time mom jitters." And her husband is too busy saving strangers to see his own wife fading away. Until Honey collapses at home and is rushed into Mason's emergency room, fighting for her life and their daughter's. Now Mason has to reckon with what he was chasing, what he ignored, and what it may cost him - the woman he loves more than anything. And he can't lose Honey. He won't survive it. 💛 Second Chance 💛 Marriage In Trouble 💛 No Cheating

Alanna did everything in her power to gain her parents' approval: wore the right clothes, dated the right men, attended the right parties, and made enough money to get them through the doors of high society that had long been out of their reach. Instead of a thank you for all she had done, she was blamed for reacting the wrong way to finding out her husband had been cheating on her with her younger sister-and her family wanted her to accept it because it was "true love." When Alanna decided she was done vying for her parents' approval and started feeling isolated, an old classmate came to her with an offer she couldn't refuse: marry him and join one of the most powerful families in town. The catch? Intimacy was off the table. Any plans for future children would be done through surrogacy or artificial insemination. Deciding this was the only way to regain her dignity, she agreed. But her growing attraction to her new husband made the no-intimacy rule all the more unwelcome.

He kissed her goodbye beneath the soft hum of a Friday night, the air still thick with the illusion of love. By dawn, that illusion was gone-shattered beneath the weight of truth waiting outside a bar. What began as a simple "work trip" became the unraveling of everything she thought she knew about loyalty, trust, and the man who once promised her forever. The Fire Beneath the Silence is a haunting portrait of love's collapse and the quiet resilience that rises from its ashes. Through betrayal's sharp edges and the aching hush that follows heartbreak, she discovers the flicker of something untamed within herself-a fire that no amount of silence can extinguish. Tender, raw, and unflinchingly human, this is a story of breaking and becoming-of learning that even when love burns away, the woman who remains is stronger than the smoke left behind.

I stayed when I shouldn't have. I stayed through half-listened conversations and promises that disappeared the moment someone else needed him more. I told myself I was overthinking. That things would change eventually. So I learned how to swallow my discomfort. My loneliness. My doubts. Until everything fell apart. Now I can't stop wondering why it took almost losing my life to finally understand what I already knew all along: I should've left him long ago. .............

Havenwood #2 What should your fiance do when you called him because you crashed his favourite car? Ask how are you, if you're hurt, if you called 911 and more concerned filled words. What did he say though? He exploded, frustratedly, without asking me if I was severely hurt. I wasn't then, but I got hurt by the man my car bumped with, who beat me up thoroughly bad, I fainted right after. I always knew he loved his cars more than anything, but his words wounded me more than the man who attacked me. And with one horrifying incident I could see things clearly now. Maybe I had mistaken value all along, thinking I mattered more than his cars.

[ONGOING] DEREK I loved my wife. I still do. But love didn't stop me from choosing desire over loyalty-or convincing myself I'd fix the damage before she noticed. I thought regret would be enough. It wasn't. MALORY When I discovered my husband's affair, I stayed for our daughter. She was only eleven months old, and I refused to give her the childhood I survived. But three years of empty rooms, broken promises, and watching him choose another woman carved something hollow inside me-until someone else filled it. I finally realised, my daughter deserves more than an absent father. And I deserve better than a cheating husband. Cancelled Mistakes is a dark, emotionally raw story of betrayal, forbidden love, and the brutal truth that some choices destroy everything-and asking forgiveness doesn't mean you deserve it. This book is strictly for mature audience🔞 Trigger warnings: This book contains on-page cheating.

He destroyed her once. Piece by piece... he turned love into pain, trust into silence, and her heart into something that no longer knew how to feel. But she didn't leave. She stayed. Through the hurt. Through the silence. Through everything he put her through. And now... He sees it. The damage. The girl he broke. The love he almost lost. This time, he doesn't want to hurt her- he wants to fix what he ruined. But healing isn't easy. And forgiveness? Even harder. Because some wounds don't fade... they stay. So the question is- Can the man who destroyed her... become the one who heals her? Or will love break her all over again? - A story of pain, redemption, and a love that refuses to let go.
