    They were once deeply in love. Until an accident took his memory and erased their marriage. When Grayson wakes from a coma, he remembers the world as it was five years ago. His family is familiar. His past makes sense. But his wife is missing from his memory entirely. For Calla, loving him becomes a quiet kind of pain. She must learn how to be patient with a man who no longer knows her, while holding onto the hope that their love was strong enough to survive even this. Because sometimes, the hardest part of love is not losing someone... but watching them forget you.

    Sophie believed love was simple, predictable, and safe - until Lucas, her fiancé - the man she had trusted with her heart, started drifting away. Between glittering galas, family pressures, and the return of an old flame, Sophie found herself sidelined from her own life - and even her own wedding. Lucas thought love could survive on desire and loyalty alone. But when Sophie disappears, leaving behind a silence that shatters his world, he realizes the truth: love must be earned every day, with honesty and presence. In the months that follow, both are tested, changed, and haunted by what they lost - until a single, impossible moment offers a chance at redemption. Can love survive the fractures of betrayal and reclaim the hearts it almost lost?

    No blurb yet, but in short: marriage-in-crisis. Both working professionals. She's a public defender; he's a court reporter. Will have emotional cheating on hero's side. Betrayal in that emotional cheating sense, grovel, and redemption. Will have OW drama, but I'm not sure how much yet and to what degree. It will be posted on Wattpad and free, but eventually I may pull it for KU--depending--once it's completed and edited. A new chapter(s) will be published on Fridays. At no specific time.

    Some love stories do not end. They simply continue without you in them. Mukti was never the other woman. She was the second choice in a love story that had already ended before she ever stepped into it. For seven years, she waited. Not for grand gestures or pretty promises. Just for one moment where he would look at her, not as a replacement, not as a responsibility, but as the woman who stood beside him every single day. She lived in a marriage where nothing was cruel enough to complain about. Arjun was gentle. He was faithful. He loved their daughter with a devotion that never wavered. He spoke to Mukti, touched her, shared a home and a bed with her. And yet, he was never truly there. His heart remained somewhere in the past, holding onto a love he had lost and never learned to let go. "Woh kisi aur ke gham se ubhar hi nahi paaya, Aur main kisi apne ke hote hue bhi tanha reh gayi" In the letters Mukti never meant him to read, her truth finally unfolds. Of how she slowly disappeared. Of how she kept loving without being loved back. Of how loneliness learned to wear the mask of stability. Now Arjun is forced to face what he chose not to see. That while he mourned his past, he made his present live unloved. This is not a story of infidelity. It is the story of emotional absence, stretched across seven years, until waiting no longer felt like hope, but habit.

    BUY NOW ON AMAZON https://a.co/d/b8UDGKL The Man She Wrote To He found the letters by accident. What he read changed everything. Ethan Calloway wasn't looking for secrets-just an old photo album tucked away in the attic. Instead, he finds a box of handwritten letters sealed with lipstick and passion... addressed to someone else. Each letter reveals pieces of a man his wife, Lila, once loved deeply. A man who listens. Who sees her. Who stirs something in her she can't express aloud. Ethan doesn't recognize the name. But the words cut deeper than betrayal. As he reads on, obsession replaces outrage. Who is the man she wrote to-and what if the answer isn't what he fears, but something far more painful? A haunting, intimate novel about the quiet unraveling of a marriage, the stories we tell to survive it, and the fragments of ourselves we leave behind in the people we love.

    Joy thought having their daughter would bring them closer. Instead, motherhood made her invisible. Six months after Emily's birth, Joy's world is sleepless nights, spit-up-stained shirts, and the ache of doing it all alone. Rowdy says he's trying-looking for work, trying to be present-but when his best friend Becca offers him a job, it feels like another door closing. Because Becca has always wanted him. And this time, Joy isn't sure he'll say no. When late-night texts turn into secrets and laughter that used to belong to her, Joy realizes it's not an affair she can prove; it's one she can feel. And when she finally walks away, Rowdy has to decide if the comfort he found in Becca was ever worth losing the family he built with Joy. ⭐The entire first draft is available for subs on Patreon.

Then she found a lump in her breast, and I made the worst choice: I numbed my fear by sleeping with someone else. My worst mistake and my biggest regret. Now I see Sophie around town with him.

I don't know what the future holds; I don't know if I'll win this battle against cancer, but I do know I'm done wasting time on people who love only when it's easy. CALLUM She came into Rivers & Rhodes Bookstore and asked for books with happy endings only. I gave her a recommendation, an invitation, and an offer of friendship. Now, this beautiful, brave woman is completely under my skin. I'm not here to win a competition against him. I'm here because choosing someone, second by second, is the only way I understand love.

    Harley and Skyler were supposed to be unbreakable. But when a housing disaster forces them under his parents' roof, the cracks in their foundation shatter wide open. Suddenly, their sanctuary is a war zone. Skyler's mother isn't just difficult; she's cruel, branding Harley "unclean" while aggressively pushing Skyler toward his perfect, pliable ex-fiancée, Amanda. But the real knife in the back isn't his mother's malice, it's Skyler's silence. Desperate to keep the peace, Skyler lets his family trample his fiancée. He ignores the insults. He ignores Harley's tears. He even allows them to invite Amanda to their wedding. Harley begged him to be a husband. He chose to be a dutiful son. So, at the altar, Harley makes a choice of her own. In front of their guests, she leaves him standing, choosing her dignity over a lifetime of coming second. Now, the shock has finally severed Skyler's strings. He's cut off his family and is crawling back, desperate to prove he's the man she needs. But Harley knows the truth: a diamond ring is replaceable. Trust is not. ⭐The entire first draft is available for subs on Patreon. Otherwise, you can read the full, and polished book when it releases on KU Spring of 2026).⭐

    Sorcha MacAlasdair, daughter of a proud Laird, with her quiet beauty and untameable nature, is like the heather that grows across the hills of her Highland home-nurturing, steadfast, and resilient. Betrothed in childhood, her marriage was forged in blood and duty, meant to bind two clans together against a common enemy. She asked for nothing and expected even less from the unwanted union-though in the quiet corners of her heart, she hoped it might become more than obligation. That, perhaps, love might grow from the bond her clan's future depended on. Calum MacRae resented the duty forced upon him. He saw Sorcha as a burden-a symbol of obligation, not choice. His heart belonged to Elspeth-a childhood friend whose charm and ambition shaped the future he believed he deserved. Though his Laird father warned him of sacred vows and the cost of defiance, Calum chose betrayal. He turned his back on Sorcha-insisting she remain a wife in name only. But war changes everything. Calum returns to a home scarred by conflict. A clan whose loyalties have wholly turned away from him. And a future far different from the one he abandoned her for. The woman he ignored-his inconvenient bride-has become the heart of the keep. Sorcha, the heather he once overlooked-wild, rooted, and impossible to break-is now the only thing standing between him and ruin.

She was his secret, his hidden wife, the woman he discarded when another took his attention. Married behind closed doors, she was the woman he swore to protect but abandoned when another called his name. And when she fell, when her heart shattered beyond recognition, he wasn't there-believing she would never leave him. Standing at the crossroads of heartbreak and self-worth, Yn Lockhart refuses to be his second choice. Because castles don't fall to outsiders-they crumble from within. And this time, she's the one walking away, leaving behind a man who only realized her worth when it was too late. But the past has a cruel sense of humor. Because when she walked away tricking him into his own mastered field, manipulating him into signing his death note, Kim Taehyung realized too late-she was the only one who ever truly belonged to him.
