Elara Hart has always found comfort in the quiet corners of her library, surrounded by stories that never let her down. Shy, bookish, and still carrying the scars of a childhood spent in the system, she prefers fictional worlds to unpredictable people-until a brooding stranger storms into her peaceful haven and asks for The Art of War. Kade Walker is strength, silence, and secrets. As the head of an elite special forces team, he's used to danger, control, and keeping people at arm's length. But the soft-spoken librarian with hot chocolate in her hands and hope in her eyes chips away at his walls with every awkward smile. Their connection begins in stolen glances and slow conversations, growing deeper through moments of vulnerability, quiet dinners, and shared fears. But Kade's world is dangerous, and when it comes crashing into Elara's, he'll have to choose between protecting her from it-and letting her in completely. With therapy, healing, and a love neither of them saw coming, Elara and Kade must learn what it means to build a life together-one chapter at a time. A slow-burn, opposites-attract romance filled with tender moments, deep scars, and a love story that proves even the quietest hearts can love the loudest.

When Callie Morgan's husband walks out without a word, she's left with a broken heart, two young children, and a crumbling farmhouse out in the countryside her grandparents once called home. With no plan and no one to rely on but herself, she does what she's always done-she survives. But healing isn't easy when everything reminds her of what she's lost... until a quiet, sun-kissed cowboy named Colter Ridge steps in. He's rough around the edges, keeps to himself, and carries his own ghosts-but something about the way he sees her, steady and unafraid, begins to loosen the walls she's built. As the seasons shift and wildflowers bloom through cracked soil, Callie begins to find beauty in the mess, strength in the silence, and the kind of love that doesn't demand perfection-only truth. ****BOOK ONE, COMPLETE****

Romero, struggling to push through the day to day life of his world: court bills, money, family, money, the past, money, his own mind, and more money. Carmen has been pushing to become a lawyer her whole life; wanting to be taken seriously in a field dominated by men is not easy though, and if putting up a front to be taken seriously is what it takes, then so be it. A certain struggle comes with feeling as though you have to act a certain way versus who you really are. Except a sensitive heart of gold can't be hidden behind a brick wall forever. Two people, walking across the same tight trope on opposite ends, trying not to fall. One going against the law and one trying to be the law. One born with a silver spoon and one suffering from the abrasions of life. Both trying to survive in worlds not made for them. Except everything in this world overlaps; bridges connecting different lives and stories. It's just a matter of realizing you're not too different from the person on the other side of that bridge.
