Liberty's Last Run

Running was right beneath cooking and baking on Liberty Johnson's resumé. After running from Clementine 9 years ago, Liberty returns to flee from her cheating bastard ex fiancé. Now back home, she wonders if 9 years was enough to exorcise the demons she'd run away from. Clementine is just as she'd left it and as she busies herself with her new project, Orchid, and deflecting questions about why she left, Liberty finds herself being distracted in ways she'd never predicted.
Jinx, the author and finisher of the misery of her teenage years, is probably the only element that has changed. While Liberty busies herself trying to refamiliarize herself with her old shoes, and hangs up her celebrity chef hat to run her own bed and breakfast, she trades in her running shoes to anchor herself to the man she'd never seen herself leaning on.

All Hail The Prince (Wattys 2025) ✔️ (UNDERGOING MINOR EDITING)
Book One of Two in the Hail Royalty duology. Book two is a different couple. PRINCE CYPRUS: Life used to be simple. College classes, caffeine overdoses, and love letters that always arrived when it rained. Sweet, right? Turns out, my "secret admirer" was my best friend Artemio (Art) Rome-at least, that's what he claimed. We agreed to stay friends (because I've only ever seen him as a brother), but something about the whole situation always felt... off. Especially since the other person I trusted most, Evander Knight, disappeared the night of his graduation-one year before mine-and ghosted me completely. And it was suspiciously the same night Art took credit for the secret admirer letters. Now it's two years later, and guess who's back in my life? Yep. Evander. And we're stuck working together as editorial assistants, trying to convince the notoriously reclusive author Storm Orion to finally write the sequel to his hit novel-the same one that ended on a soul-crushing cliffhanger before he vanished into thin air. Oh, and the letters? They've started up again. Art swears it was him all along, but the more he insists, the less I believe him. Storm Orion only replies to my emails. And the sequel? It's weirdly familiar. Too familiar. Evander's back. The letters are back. And I'm starting to realize I might have always been in love with the boy who left, and not the boy who stayed. So now I've got questions: Why did Evander disappear? Who actually wrote the letters? And who, exactly, is Storm Orion? And to think, I always thought I was chasing someone else's story (Storm Orion's sequel). But maybe it's my story. And now, with everything unraveling-the secrets, the letters, Evander's return-the biggest plot twist of my life happens. The plot twist? Storm Orion's books are meant for me, and I'm the only one who can choose how they end. Will it be another heartbreaking cliffhanger... Or the happy ending we all deserve?Complete
