Twelve year old Gilly Morris is about to journey through a summer of loss, bullies, guilt and terror. Told from her point of view, 2003 is the summer when the horrible, terrible thing happened to her and her mother. Journey's Child is the story of unimaginable loss and pain, and where redemption comes at a high price.
Drakes Harbor is an old art community on the Oregon coast where Gilly and her mother spend that fateful summer. Alone with her guilt and pain, Gilly befriends a grizzled hermit living with his own loss. Journey's Child isn't a story of what life can take away but rather the cautionary tale of surviving the storm together.

His Secret
Amira Hart was never meant to be part of the story. Not the public one, anyway. But behind every polished legacy is the girl no one talks about-the one who was loved in secret, then left in silence. For two years, Amira and Brooks Whitmore IV lived in that silence. He was the President's son, raised for cameras and campaign trails. She was the woman he chose when no one was watching. Their worlds were never meant to meet. The cards were stacked long before they kissed in the dark. Now, two years later, a wedding invitation arrives. His name is on it. So is hers. Told in fragments and flashbacks, His Secret is a quiet storm of a love story-about memory, erasure, and the women history tries to forget.Terminé
When Hearts Collide
In a haze of despair, 22-year-old Zoe is on the edge, contemplating an escape from her pain. Everything changes when she meets Asher , the charming yet reckless boy she can't stand. He seems to embody everything she loathes, the popular boy who has eveything ; friends, family, happiness and messes his life up without a care in the world but fate seems to have other plans for both of them. As their lives collide in unexpected ways, Zoe discovers that beneath Asher's cool facade lies a depth of struggles that resonates with her own. Their connection ignites something within her-a flicker of hope that challenges her darkest thoughts and makes her question if life really is that fragile and sad to be ended that fast. Can this unlikely bond pull her back from the brink, or will it lead them both into deeper shadows? ---Terminé
Together forever
At eighteen, Laura Quinn was abandoned and pregnant-but she never gave up. With fierce determination, she raised her daughter, Camil, forging a life out of nothing. But just as they began to find their footing, life struck again. A devastating illness left Laura fragile, and Camil-still a teenager-became caregiver, breadwinner, and daughter all at once. Laura's greatest sorrow wasn't her illness-it was the fear she couldn't give Camil the future she deserved. Then, tragedy. Laura's passing leaves Camil truly alone, barely an adult and drowning in grief. Until a ray of hope breaks through: her best friend helps her land a high-paying job with a powerful and enigmatic employer, Mr. Dvreis. But the job isn't what it seems. As Camil is drawn deeper into a world of secrets, shadows, and unexpected power, she begins to unravel truths about herself-and her past-that will change everything she thought she knew. Love, betrayal, and destiny collide in this emotionally charged tale of resilience, sacrifice, and the hidden strength within us all.
Tides of you
Every summer, Seabrook Beach looks the same-sun-bleached boardwalk, ice cream melting too fast, the sound of waves and early-2000s pop drifting through open windows. But this year, everything is different. Riley Brooks, freshly heartbroken and determined not to let anyone see her crumble, returns to the beach town that holds both her happiest memories and her biggest humiliations. Unfortunately, her ex-the boy who shattered her confidence-and his new girlfriend are staying two cabins away, watching her every move. Backed into a corner, Riley blurts out one desperate lie: She already has a new boyfriend. A cooler one. A hotter one. A surfer. And by pure accident (or fate), the person standing behind her when she lies... is Jace Carter-the boy who spent their whole childhood teasing her, the boy with sun-bleached hair and trouble in his smile, the boy who absolutely should've walked away. Instead, he slips an arm around her and plays along. Now Riley and Jace are fake-dating through bonfires, beach parties, jealous exes, and late-night boardwalks. But the longer they pretend, the harder it becomes to tell what's fake and what's something else entirely-something warm, breathless, and real. As old secrets rise, new feelings spark, and drama spreads through the beach town like wildfire, Riley and Jace will have to confront the truth: They started as a lie... but they might end as everything.

By the Book
After a painful betrayal shatters her engagement, twenty-five-year-old Amina Grimaldi leaves behind the sunlit streets of Italy for a quiet new life in London. All she wants is to teach, to start over, and to forget. But when she steps into her classroom at Rosehill Academy for Girls, she meets seven-year-old June Wilson-a bright, thoughtful child who slowly begins to open a locked part of Amina's heart. And then there's June's mother. Elizabeth Wilson is everything Amina isn't: older, commanding, impeccably composed. A powerful CEO with little time for distractions-or emotions. But when a chance encounter at a bookshop leads to coffee, the lines between parent and teacher begin to blur. As parent-teacher conferences draw near and stolen glances give way to deeper truths, Amina and Elizabeth find themselves drawn into a quiet tension neither expected. What begins with shared silences and subtle shifts becomes a story of trust, healing, and the kind of love that arrives softly... but changes everything. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• -WLW -Age Gap -SmutTerminé
