Arielle is 23, a mom, and trying to survive. She's still with her baby daddy - not because she wants to be, but because leaving isn't easy when you have a child, no money, and nowhere to go. The man she's with says he loves her, but behind closed doors, love hurts. A lot. So she works nights. Cash jobs. Quiet jobs. Anything to save a little money without him knowing. One night, that job takes her somewhere she never expected - an underground boxing ring. That's where she sees Dominic. He fights like he has nothing to lose. He wins like it's inevitable. And when the crowd clears and the blood is still on the floor, Arielle is the one sent in to clean it up. Their first meeting isn't romantic. It's tense. Awkward. Heavy. Dominic notices things most people don't - the bruises she hides, the way she flinches, the fear she tries to swallow. He doesn't ask questions. He just watches. What starts as silence turns into something dangerous. Because Arielle is already in a relationship she's trying to escape... and Dominic is a man built from violence and restraint. This isn't a love story without scars. This is about survival. Choice. And finding someone who sees you when you feel invisible.

She was never "the right size" for figure skating-at least, that's what her dad has always believed. No matter how hard she works, no matter how beautifully she moves on the ice, the doubt follows her like a shadow... and it gets louder every time someone suggests she should take up less space. He's the last person she should want: her brother's best friend. The bad boy hockey star with a reputation for trouble, fights, and headlines. He's loyalty and chaos wrapped in the same body-dangerous to fall for, impossible to ignore. And the closer he gets, the harder it becomes to pretend she doesn't feel it too. But when pressure turns into obsession and control starts to look like survival, she begins fighting a silent battle off the ice-one that threatens everything she's worked for, including herself. Between the sport that judges her, the father who doesn't believe in her, and the love she was never supposed to touch... she'll have to decide what matters more: being accepted, or being free. Content Warning: body shaming, disordered eating themes, emotional stress (recovery-focused).

Rowan Hale has always believed she was human-just a little broken. She loses time. She wakes with scars she can't explain. And every full moon leaves her feeling like pieces of herself have gone missing. In a town that watches too closely and whispers too much, Rowan learns early how to stay quiet, how to blend in, how not to ask questions she might not survive the answers to. But when someone finally sees what happens after the moon rises, the truth she's been running from begins to surface. Born a wolf and bound to human skin, Rowan is caught between who she was forced to be and what she truly is. As ancient secrets stir, hunters close in, and the town's unease sharpens into suspicion, Rowan must confront the fear that has ruled her life-the fear of herself. Because the moon is not her curse. It is her mirror. Moonbound is a haunting supernatural novel about identity, belonging, and the courage it takes to accept the truth when the truth has teeth.

"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine."
