Amidel Stories

Amidel Nissarian's life is a relentless struggle: juggling five jobs, caring for her terminally ill mother, and protecting her little brother, all while hiding bruises behind fake smiles. Desperate and out of options, she turns to theft-not for herself, but to save her family. On the run from the police through the streets of Albany, she doesn't expect a quiet stranger at the diner to see through her carefully constructed mask. Jackson Hues is heir to a powerful empire, but all he wants is to live a normal life away from the weight of family expectations. One unexpected encounter at a diner changes everything. Struck by the fierce resilience behind Amidel's guarded eyes, Jackson is drawn into a world far different from his own-and he can't look away. As secrets unravel and past traumas resurface, their worlds collide in a whirlwind of danger, healing, and undeniable connection. But can love truly bloom when everything around them is breaking?
