Charred; there are few better words to describe Adrienne King. She certainly didn't escape her childhood unscathed but if you scrape off enough of the blackened bits there's something worth saving. Adrienne has spent the past eight years attempting to move beyond the torment she survived, but it turns out you can't hide from who you are-or who you've been.
History comes knocking in the form of one nosy investigator determined to find the answers to a murder that took place eight years ago, an investigator who has his crosshairs on Adrienne's brother. In order to protect her brother, she'll have to find him. In order to do that she'll need to dive into their mutual past. It won't be easy digging up all that she's buried but if there's one thing she can never forget, it's that she owes him that much.

Echoes of a Forgotten Destiny
Not every fairytale ends in forever. Some teach you how to survive. Bianca never meant to make Adrien fall for her.

As shocking secrets come to light and forgotten memories resurface, Bianca is forced to face a truth: she's not normal. And neither is their love. In a story filled with broken hearts, hidden strength, and second chances that sting worse than they heal, Bianca has to decide if love is enough... or if it's the very thing that could destroy her. She's still figuring out if she's the gorgeous Cinderella or a lost Gretel roaming around the forest, trying to escape the forces waiting to taunt her. But the truth is far more devastating. She can't afford to be a princess. She has to pick up the sword and fight, even if it means losing her life. Read to find out.
A Louis Tomlinson Love Story
Adeline swore she was done with Louis. Two years had passed since their world fell apart, since lies tore them wide open, leaving nothing but anger, hurt, and silence between them. She convinced herself she was over it-that she was over him. But fate doesn't care about closure. Now, trapped together in a safe house with tensions rising, Adeline is forced to confront everything she's been running from-the betrayal, the grief, and the undeniable pull that refuses to fade. When the past collides with the present, old wounds reopen, tempers flare, and Adeline faces a truth she can't ignore: She may hate him. She may never forgive him. But she's still choosing him. Even when she doesn't want to. Even when she doesn't know why. And that? That might be more dangerous than anything chasing them.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
