[Synopsis Title: The Wife No One Knew] She loses her baby because her husband's daughter pushes her down the stairs-and when she wakes in the hospital, Ethan Sterling's first concern is damage control, not her grief. Claire Hayes has spent years loving a man who keeps her hidden. At the office, she is just another low-level employee. At home, she is the secret wife of the cold, untouchable CEO. She tells herself his distance is temporary, that his silence means less than the vows they signed in private. Then one cruel accident rips away her child-and with it, every excuse she has ever made for him. As gossip swirls about Ethan and his ex-wife Vanessa rebuilding their perfect family, Claire starts to see the truth: her marriage was built on convenience, her kindness was mistaken for weakness, and the little girl who hurt her may be just another victim in a far uglier game. Between workplace humiliation, buried resentment, and a husband who only realizes what he's losing when she stops reaching for him, Claire is forced to choose between staying in a life that keeps breaking her... or walking away for good. But leaving Ethan Sterling is not simple. Not when his daughter clings to her, his ex-wife sharpens her claws, and the man who never fought for her suddenly refuses to let her go. This time, Claire won't beg to be loved. The only question is whether Ethan will understand that before he loses her forever.

I heard his laugh before I saw her, and I already knew - that loose, unguarded version of it, the one I'd never once heard him aim at me. I found him with my eyes and there he was, all six feet six of him tilted toward Cathie like she was the only thing in the room worth standing near, his sharp eyes tracking her face with an attention I had spent three years quietly starving for. Something in my chest didn't break. It just went still. I set his coffee down on the bench - oat milk, no sugar, memorized without him ever asking - and walked away.

TO BUILD A HOME When photographer Jaine Gayle falls for the brilliant, untouchable Lev Atticus Soren, their small-town summer romance becomes the kind of love that quietly rearranges a life. But just as forever begins to feel within reach, Lev leaves-without explanation-and heartbreak is all Jaine has left to hold onto. Six years later, Lev returns as a formidable lawyer-ruthless in court, distant in person, and guarded in ways that make him almost unrecognizable... until he meets a little girl with his eyes. Ellie Eiden Soren. His daughter. Bound by truth, guilt, and a wildfire attraction that never truly died, Jaine and Lev are pushed into a marriage neither of them is ready for-yet both desperately need. As old wounds reopen and buried emotions claw back to the surface, they're forced to confront the past that broke them and the love that still refuses to let go. Now, standing between resentment and longing, they must decide: can something once shattered still be rebuilt... or will the same fire that brought them together burn everything down? A story of second chances, undeniable chemistry, and a love that refuses to stay buried. *** Author's note: Hi! This story was born from my craving for something soft, cliché, and comforting-so I wrote it myself. It's simple, emotional, and made to feel like a warm, familiar romance you can return to when you need it. This is basically a Beta testing for the story, what you're reading is a live draft, that I would love to share with you. By voting and actively engaging, I can craft better polishing for the final re-launching. Hence, this story will be taken down once the book is finished. And It will be re-published on fixed schedules after the polishing. Thank you so much for giving it a chance. And for sharing this journey with me.💗 Please excuse any small errors while polishing is ongoing. P.S. The cover changes with each arc!

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.
