Ebun Ciara was beautiful. She had long slim legs and an oval face and beautiful almond shaped eyes. She was declared missing the next day. When Ebun disappears during a trip abroad, the lives of those she leaves behind begin to quietly unravel. Temi is left grappling with grief without closure. In Manchester, she tries to hold herself together-navigating a strained relationship, therapy sessions, and an unexpected pull toward spirituality that challenges everything she thought she believed about love, faith, and herself. Lawrence, meanwhile, is struggling to stay afloat. A young father with a complicated past, he balances work, co-parenting, and the weight of loss while trying to be a good friend, a good partner, and a good man. As new relationships form and old wounds resurface, Lawrence is forced to confront who he is becoming-and who he's already lost. As Temi and Lawrence move through heartbreak, betrayal, and unanswered questions, their journeys mirror one another in unexpected ways. Both must reckon with absence-of truth, of certainty, of people they love-and decide how to move forward when the past refuses to stay buried. Set against the backdrop of Manchester's festivals, flats, and late-night conversations, The Distance Between Us, is a contemporary novel about friendship, diaspora, grief, and the search for meaning in a world that offers no easy answers

"Is this right?" Aiden whispered, fingers trembling inside of me. "Tell me what to do." And then his teammate walked in. Ψ The first time Aiden Wilder touched me, he asked if he was doing it right. The second time, he begged me to teach him more. The third time, we weren't alone. Aiden is the NHL's #1 draft pick. Nineteen. Six-foot-one of raw talent and a contract worth millions. He's fast on the ice, awkward off it... and a virgin. I was hired to coach him through fame. Help him deal with the media, the fans, the pressure. Not teach him how to take off my clothes with shaking hands. Not guide his mouth between my thighs and whisper praise into his ear. Not fall for the way he moans like he means it. But then his teammate Luke Mitchell walked in-older, cockier, and definitely not as straight as everyone thinks. He saw what we were doing. He didn't walk away. He asked if we needed help. And Aiden? He said yes. Now there's three of us. No rules. No labels. No going back. But somewhere between the lessons, the touches, and the kisses we shouldn't have shared...someone caught feelings. And I'm scared it wasn't just one of them.

[BOOK 1] What they have is messy, reckless, and impossible to walk away from🦋 ************* "I won't leave" I whisper, and he smiles, "I know, baby" he says softly, and my lips tug upwards into a smile. "You're the exception" he continued, his tone tender as he pressed a short, sweet kiss to my forehead. I didn't know it then, but I started falling in love with Finn Brookes, we were each other's exceptions. * * * Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks.

But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.

First book 🏒. Starting college was supposed to be Violet Vale's escape plan. New country. New city. New campus. And then there's Ethan Maddox-tattoos inked like warnings, that infuriating smirk, and a six-foot-five presence that fills every room like he owns it. Her brother's best friend. Her worst enemy. And now? Her accidental shadow at Northbridge University. Violet's spent years trading insults and eye-rolls with Ethan, ever since he became an honorary part of her family. But there's nothing brotherly about the way he looks at her now-or the way her pulse reacts when he calls her Vi like it's some kind of challenge. He's cocky. Infuriating. One year older. And the only person on campus who makes her feel anything at all. They're not friends. Definitely not something more. But the line between hate and something far messier is starting to blur. And when hearts get tangled... Someone's going to fall. Warning: May contain profanity and sexual content.

Paisley Thompson is the voice on every radio, the face behind sold-out arenas, and the name her mother built an empire on. On stage, she's a star. Offstage, she's an asset-controlled and barely breathing beneath the weight of fame. But after a concert in Europe ends with two bullets in the abdomen and months long of hiding, everything changes. To protect the profit more than the person, her mother hires a bodyguard. Enters Killian Woods: Protective. Watchful. Everything a man in his position ought to be. From the moment they meet, Paisley can't shake the feeling that there's more to him than she knows. As the tour resumes and the spotlight returns, so does the threat. Someone is hunting Paisley, getting closer with every stop, every city, every stage. And as Killian works to keep her alive, what began as protection turns into something far more complex. Something that crosses every line they swore not to break. But when secrets surface and truth starts to fracture, the biggest question isn't who is after her-it's why. And how far they are willing to go to get what they want.
