Noelle Sinclair thought leaving him was the hardest thing she'd ever do. She was wrong. Still hurt from betrayal and trying to protect her peace, Noelle made a selfish decision... that she never told him. Now seven months later, the truth lands on his lap. And Mario Brown is the last man she wanted showing up at her door angry, heartbroken, and demanding answers. What happens when the man you still love finds out you kept his child a secret? Some betrayals don't come back from...and some love stories are never really over.

Trust the timing of everything. Just because it's not happening right now doesn't mean it never will.. Everything will come to you at the.. perfect time when timing is perfect.. | based on some true events | 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲 | 𝐦𝐞, @brisbookcase ᝰ.ᐟ

In an unfulfilled life, Lorianna finds herself caught between the echoes of loyalty and the whispers of a new beginning. As she navigates the complexities of love, betrayal, and societal expectations, a chance encounter promises a path to happiness she never imagined. But when her past and present collide, the consequences are as unexpected as they are devastating. This tale of passion, friendship, and the thin line between love and morality will leave you questioning how well we truly know the ones we love-and at what cost comes the pursuit of happiness. 🌹 - Shattered Vows , Liloandrice.

Stella Moss was never the type to be impressed by money, fame, or a man with a big name. So when music mogul Dayvon Karter steps into her world, she makes him earn every soft part of her. But what starts as slow love turns into something deeper when a little girl named Anya changes both their lives forever, pushing them from romance into becoming the family neither of them knew they needed.

"some people come into your life for a reason... others come to ruin it." Aaliyah Carter wasn't looking for a fresh start, she just didn't have a choice. New town, new school, new people... and a past she refuses to talk about. Living with her aunt and uncle in a quiet Massachusetts suburb, she plans to keep her head down, finish junior year, and stay out of trouble. But that doesn't last long. Not when she catches the attention of Jaden Morales, the school's most popular senior, varsity basketball star, and someone with more history than people are willing to say out loud. And definitely not when she starts getting messages from an unknown number. At first, it's small. Weird. Easy to ignore. Until secrets start getting exposed. Not just hers; everyone's. Friendships start breaking. relationships get tested. trust turns into suspicion. and the deeper Aaliyah gets into the group, the harder it is to tell who's real... and who's just pretending. Because someone is watching. Someone who knows everything. And they're not going to stop until everything falls apart.
