Camden Edson never believed in happily ever after. Men were fine for a good time, but love? Commitment? Marriage? Those belonged in fairy tales, not real life. After watching her father walk away from her family for another woman, Camden built her life around one simple rule: never depend on anyone. Then she met Theo Sullivan. Somehow, the brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon slipped past every defense she had. He became the one person who made forever feel possible. Two years into their marriage, Camden is thriving as a clinical psychologist while Theo begins an intense cardiovascular fellowship at the same hospital. Long hours and opposite schedules leave little time for each other, but every stolen moment reminds Camden why she took the chance. Until one weekend changes everything. When Camden receives an emergency call that her estranged father is being rushed into open-heart surgery, she desperately tries to reach Theo. His phone goes straight to voicemail. Then she calls his best friend. Only to discover Theo was never where he claimed he would be. As old wounds rip open, Camden is forced to confront more than the possibility of her husband's betrayal. She's suddenly responsible for saving the life of the man whose own infidelity destroyed her family, while questioning whether the marriage she fought to believe in was built on the very lie she swore she'd never survive twice. Some hearts can be repaired. Others never heal the same way.

Josie thought the hardest part of falling in love with Nate was overcoming all the reasons why she shouldn't- would she, could she survive the trauma of another betrayal? Her fears were valid. The invisible scars her ex boyfriend left were deep, ragged and still bleeding. Josie swore she'd never open her heart to another cop again. But Nate was patient, steady, and impossible to ignore. Little by little, he quieted her fears and became the one exception she never meant to make. Until a forgotten morning alarm forced Josie to realize Nate may not be the man he promised to be. As old wounds begin to bleed again, she must decide if the ghosts of trauma past still hold power and whether trusting her heart to Nate cost her everything she fought so hard to walk away from. Josie will have to decide if the man who once asked her to dance beneath the stars deserved a second chance to heal her shattered heart.

Adrian Callahan spent a decade chasing Olympic gold, living on the edge of the world. At twenty-eight, he chooses to retire-not because he's broken, but because he's ready to finally build a life with Natalie Reyes, the woman who's loved him long before the medals. But retirement doesn't mean peace. A new career in endorsements pulls him into Vanessa Cole's glossy PR empire, where the line between professional and personal blurs. It's not just temptation-it's a betrayal. And when the truth shatters his five-year engagement, Adrian loses the only thing that mattered more than winning. Now, with the world watching him fall, Adrian must rebuild from the ground up-mentoring young athletes, rediscovering who he is without a podium, and proving that love isn't earned with promises but with choices, day after day. Almost Forever is a story about heartbreak, healing, and the fragile, powerful choice to love again.
