After years away, Summer Reed returns to Pine Ridge to rebuild her life in the farmhouse her grandmother left behind. She expects memories, small-town gossip, and a fresh start-not to fall for Luke Dawson, her brother's best friend and the man she's secretly loved for years. But Luke is a single father with a past he's still healing from, and Summer has her own history waiting at her doorstep. Between old feelings, new beginnings, and a town that believes everyone deserves a second chance, they'll have to decide if some love stories are worth finding their way back to.

In a quiet Alabama town where everyone knows her name, Clara Ellis has built a life around faith, family, and the warm scent of fresh bread rising before dawn. As the owner of Sweet Magnolia Bakery, she's content with simple joys-even if she's never stopped dreaming of seeing the world beyond Main Street. When an international baking exchange takes her to the sun-drenched streets of Sicily, Clara expects to return home with treasured recipes and unforgettable memories. She doesn't expect to meet Luca De Santis. Reserved, powerful, and carrying the weight of generations on his shoulders, Luca lives in a world where loyalty is everything and trust is a luxury. Clara's kindness, unwavering faith, and gentle spirit awaken a hope he thought he'd buried long ago. As two vastly different worlds collide, their growing love is tested by secrets, sacrifice, and an ocean separating them. When Luca makes a heartbreaking choice to protect the woman he loves, he risks losing her forever. Winning her back means crossing the Atlantic, facing an entire Southern town determined to protect one of their own, and proving that real strength isn't found in power-but in humility, truth, and love. From the charming streets of small-town Alabama to the breathtaking coastlines of Sicily, The Don's Southern Heart is a sweeping contemporary romance about family, forgiveness, second chances, and discovering that sometimes the road home begins with getting wonderfully, hopelessly lost.

## TRUE BLACK LOVE ### By Ilianna Binoche Africa Kenyatta Anderson has spent her entire life proving people wrong. Too dark. Too curvy. Too outspoken. Too ambitious. Now she is the brilliant construction powerhouse behind more than two hundred million dollars in contracts-and the woman powerful men depend on while refusing to give her the respect, recognition, or ownership she deserves. Professionally, they call her **Kee** because Africa is apparently too Black, too bold, and too unforgettable for the rooms she dominates. But success has not silenced the voices that taught her to question her beauty. Money cannot heal the wounds left by colorism, family betrayal, workplace obsession, and men who desired her body without knowing how to cherish her heart. Then she meets Israel Nathaniel King. Israel is a devoted father, reformed player, healthcare professional, and man of faith still carrying the damage of a marriage he tried to force into perfection. His former wife abandoned him and their children-but Israel is not innocent. He ignored her truth because he believed love could change what she never wanted. When Africa challenges him over her mother's failing care, Israel does something no man has ever done. He listens. What begins as a professional confrontation becomes a slow-burning connection between two wounded people learning that love is not rescue, possession, sacrifice, or fear. But when Africa walks away from the company that exploited her, launches a construction empire under her full name, and becomes entangled in Israel's complicated family, she must decide whether she can build a future without disappearing inside it. Israel may love her. His children may trust her. The world may finally learn her name. But Africa must answer the one question no man can answer for her: **Can she love herself without needing anyone else to prove she is worthy?** **TRUE BLACK LOVE** is a powerful contemporary Black romance about colorism, body acceptance

## REBIRTH: GAENGSAENG Yeong-sik Han did not come to America searching for love. After losing every woman who ever felt like home, the Korean widower builds his life around one rule: **survive without needing anyone.** He works. He studies. He keeps his apartment dark, his routines strict, and his heart locked behind years of grief. Happiness is dangerous. Attachment always ends in loss. And love is a luxury he refuses to risk twice. Then Polly Bennett walks away from nine pounds of fish-and straight into his carefully controlled life. Polly is a vibrant Black bakery owner with flour on her clothes, laughter in her voice, and wounds hidden beneath every joke. After a former lover betrayed her, stole from her, and nearly destroyed the business she sacrificed everything to build, Polly learned how to turn pain into sugar, survival into success, and heartbreak into light. When she recognizes the loneliness Yeong-sik is determined to hide, she decides he needs a friend. He disagrees. But Polly does not disappear easily. What begins with shared bus rides, forgotten fish, and an unwanted friendship becomes late-night conversations, cultural misunderstandings, Korean language lessons, Southern desserts, and a love neither of them believed they could survive. But when Yeong-sik is called back to Busan to fulfill a promise, their future fractures across two countries. He cannot abandon his duty. She will not erase the life she fought to rebuild. Can two wounded hearts create one future without sacrificing themselves-or will grief steal the rebirth unfolding before their eyes? **REBIRTH: GAENGSAENG** is an emotionally powerful Korean and Black interracial romance about grief, healing, chosen family, cultural connection, second chances, and discovering that home is not always a place. Sometimes, home is the person who teaches you how to live again.

- "Cinematic + Romantic + Ancestral" Nyah Freeman has always been sensitive to the unseen-dreams too vivid, coincidences too perfect, gut feelings too loud. But nothing prepares her for the morning she meets the man she's been dreaming of for months. Their hands brush. The lights flicker. The air hums like an ancient drum waking up. Kalen Ward is a stranger... yet somehow, her spirit knows him. What neither of them realize is that they are the last descendants of an ancient African tribe-warriors whose souls were bound together lifetimes ago to protect the world from a rising darkness. The ancestors have waited centuries for them to reunite. But destiny doesn't guarantee peace... and love doesn't guarantee safety. Because the force that destroyed their past lives is hunting them still- and if Nyah and Kalen don't unlock their shared power in time, the bond that brought them together may be the very thing that ends the world. A mystical Southern romance about soulmates, ancestry, and a love older than time itself.

It's 3 a.m. in Columbia, SC, and the bar is finally empty... except for her. She's the last one at the counter: honey-toned skin glowing under the neon, micro braids cascading down her back, rose-colored lipstick staining the rim of a half-finished glass of red wine. She's stunning, poised, and way too classy for a dive like this. I'm just the tired bartender counting tips and praying rent doesn't bounce again. I was ready to lock up and go home. Then she smiles, soft as velvet, and says, "You like to take me home?" One sentence. One look. One night that's about to change everything. What starts as a ride for a beautiful stranger turns into stolen kisses, late-night drives, and secrets neither of us meant to share. She says she doesn't do attachments. I know I can't afford them. But some temptations are worth the risk... even when you know the morning might break both your hearts. A steamy, slow-burn strangers-to-lovers romance set to the soundtrack of neon lights and red wine.

Still floored by news of her grandmother's death, Abilene is met with her past all at once. This time, she won't be able to escape it so easily. She has a farm to take care of, a book to write, and a heart to keep from breaking.

Where the Heart Stayed Claire Bennett left her small Tennessee hometown to chase her dreams-and built a successful life in Europe as a professional photographer. But when her grandfather passes away, she returns home and finds herself drawn back into the world she thought she'd outgrown-and into the orbit of Luke Carter, her childhood best friend. As old memories resurface and long-buried feelings awaken, Claire must choose between the life she built and the love she left behind. A heartfelt story of second chances, the pull of home, and the quiet power of a love that never faded.

She isn't looking for healing. Or hope. Or him. But between porch swing mornings, the quiet steadiness of her best friend's little boy, and the slow unraveling of who she used to be, Clara starts to wonder if coming home isn't the end of her story... but the beginning. A story about soft starts, second chances, and the quiet kind of love that doesn't ask to be earned-only seen.
