Saige Monet is almost there. Almost famous. Almost in love. Almost his. Her voice is rising, her name is catching buzz. But the man she shares her nights, and maybe even her heart, with still keeps her tucked in the background. Niko Landry prefers it that way. Behind the camera. Behind the chaos. Behind the walls he's never let anyone through. What they have isn't defined, but it's real. At least, it feels that way. Until it all starts to slip. When a trip back home resurfaces everything Niko buried, their already fragile worlds shatters. He's forced to choose between surviving his past...or building something that lasts. And Saige? She's left with a spotlight, a broken heart, and a future that no longer includes the one person she thought might be hers. Now, she's rising without him and he's learning how to show up for more than just the moment. Because what they had was never nothing. It was almost everything. Almost real. Almost forever. Almost his. Almost yours.

Eight years ago, Rae Mitchell left Glencoe, Georgia without a goodbye. No note, no explanation, just a suitcase full of ambition and a heart too full to stay. She was supposed to outrun the memories. The whispers. And especially Khalil Reed, the boy who once made her believe in forever. But now she's back. Her grandmother's unexpected fall pulls her home, and with no job, no apartment, and a scandal she's still trying to forget, Rae has nowhere else to go. Glencoe hasn't changed, but Rae has. And so has Khalil. Once her first love, now the man she ghosted, Khalil isn't interested in forgiveness or small talk. He's running a business, raising his teenage sister, and trying not to care that Rae's name still hits him like it used to. In a town where everyone remembers who you used to be, Rae must confront what she left behind-family, friendship, and the one person who never stopped waiting for her to come home. But some wounds don't stay buried. Some love never really leaves. And some promises are made to be broken... until they aren't.

23-year-old Celai (sa-lay) LaCroix should have died in a horrible accident, but instead, she wakes up beside the man who is responsible for her making it to the hospital, Julian Westbrook. God had put him there to be her knight-in-shining-armor, however, the "hero syndrome" doesn't seem to wear off. Surprisingly, it wasn't the first time the two met. Celai was a frequent attender of Disciples of Truth Church, while Julian was the pastor-in-training. It may seem like a coincidence, like the world was just small, but in fact, it was the Lord putting them together. Now, it was up to them to realize, sit back, and watch God unfold His blessings for them. However, Celai has her mind in the future and her hero has his in the past. Neither being in the present is sure to provoke a mountain of issues. Bible verses are in NIV, NLT, and KJV translations 💛
