Jessie Evans thought she had her life figured out - a steady job, a husband, a routine. Until the walls of her marriage started cracking, and the man she tried to forget kept showing up at work with a smile that could undo her resolve. Moses knows Jessie deserves better than the life she's trapped in, but falling for a married woman could destroy everything - his career, his heart, and maybe her freedom. And Jonathan? He's not letting go easily. When the past collides with the present, Jessie must decide: stay in the life that's breaking her, or risk everything for the one man who might save her... or ruin her completely.

From the freezing cold of New Hampshire to the bustling, sweat-inducing heat of Port Harcourt, Kyle Sterling's entire world just went up in flames. After his parents' divorce and his mother's return to Nigeria, eighteen-year-old Kyle has no choice but to pack up his life and start all over again in a country he's never called home.

But somewhere between the laughter, the arguments, and two broken families, something begins to change. A connection sparks between the boy from the West and the girl from the Garden City. It's just a platonic friendship. Or at least, that's the lie they keep telling themselves. But one thing is certain... They will never be the same again.

Every 11 years, the universe checks its work. This time, we failed. Dr. Bea Pulaski has spent a decade being laughed out of physics conferences for claiming the constants of nature are correcting themselves. Then she finds the pulse buried in the oldest light in the universe - a countdown. Eleven days. The truth is worse than she imagined. The universe runs on a dying substrate, and humanity has just become too self-aware to be quietly deleted. We have 96 hours to prove we deserve to keep existing - to a jury made of everyone who ever lived before us. There's only one problem. Bea has discovered the proof doesn't exist. And somewhere in the data, eight versions of her have already tried. A story about the end of the world, the people who refuse to let it end, and the question no system can answer - told across 1963 Moscow, a lighthouse in Scotland, and the space between iterations.
