BOOK TWO Chapters for Encrypted Vows will start going up at the end of September. I'll be updating regularly, so you can follow along as the story unfolds. Five years ago, Dawn Ramsey let the wrong man in. Alessandro Ruiz charmed his way into her bed to access an encrypted file that should have stayed buried. He got what he came for, but she caught on and walked away before he could take anything more. Now he is back, acting as if the past holds no weight. He offers her a position at his firm. A chance to refine her skills. She agrees, with one condition. Everything between them must remain strictly professional. But her reasons for accepting run deeper. Someone has been taunting her, leaving coded messages only another hacker would understand. Each message feels more deliberate. Each one cuts closer to the people she loves. She knows she must uncover the truth before the threats become something irreversible. And that includes protecting the man she has tried so hard to stop loving.

Maliyah Davenport built a new life in Florida after escaping an abusive relationship. But when a family crisis brings her back to Boston, she decides to stay for good. Working as a director for a domestic violence program, she's finally finding her footing-and maybe something more with Boston Police Detective Reed Morrison. Reed is charming and protective, but when things start to feel serious, he pulls away-ending things just before Maliyah's dangerous past catches up with her. Now everything has changed. Reed knows what he almost lost, but Maliyah has learned that some people only fight for you when it's convenient-and she's done fighting alone. She deserves someone who will stand and fight for her. Can Reed prove his love is real, or will Maliyah's shadows be too much to overcome?

I save the Alpha. He crowns my sister. "Miles... I'm your mate," I blurt, hoping that will break through his confusion and make him see me for who I truly am. He only stares quietly at me, but I can see the conflict and confusion in his expression. "I'm sorry, Rhea. You're beautiful, and your scent..." his words trail as he buries his nose on my neck and inhales deeply. "It's the sweetest I've ever known. But I love your sister, and I made a promise I don't intend to break. We will have to reject the mate bond." "Why won't you believe me?" I plead, my voice raw. "I'm the girl you met that night. I am your mate!" Miles' gaze hardens as he points toward the exit. "You need to leave, Rhea. Or I'll have security escort you out." "You liar!" I scream as I yank Roxy's hair. "You've stolen everything from me!" I feel Miles' hands gripping my shoulders as he yanks me off her, shoving me backward. I land hard on my butt. "Listen to me, Rhea," he hisses, his voice filled with venom, his eyes cold. "I don't want to see you near me or Roxy again. If you do, I'll have you banished." He takes a step closer, towering above me. "I, Alpha Miles Mondragon, reject you, Rhea Chapman, as my mate. Accept it or reject it; I don't fucking care." Have you ever watched your Knight in shining armor stolen from your very own fantasy? It could be the most heartbreaking thing. What do you do when the man fated to love you calls you a liar? When the boy you save becomes the Alpha who destroys you? This is my story, and how my fate was stolen.

Her marriage to Aarav Singh wasn't just love-it was fate, laced with invisible strings and old debts.

But when she vanishes after 3 years of silence, the cracks begin to show.

A gripping tale of betrayal, resilience, and redemption, where the quietest woman held the loudest legacy.

Liam thought he could keep his past casual and his present serious. Too bad Kashvi doesn't do half-truths. Or half-commitments. What started as one week of unexpected connection turned into something deeper-until a tagged photo, a flirty comment, and one very territorial (ex?) situationship flipped everything upside down. Now Kashvi's in Vancouver, furious. Liam's in Toronto, flailing. And the line between what they were and what they could've been is starting to look a lot like... nothing. Gilded Nothing is a standalone novella about messy timing, unfinished pasts, and groveling that takes more than just flowers.
