Can two wounded hearts come together to mend the pain?

Bailey Keys never expected to lose her older sister, Lanie. The doctors said that she had time, that the odds were in her favor. And now she’s alone. With parents too wrapped up in their careers to notice, and friends that she unwillingly pushed away, she has no one left. That is, until her father throws a benefit concert for the Ladder 24 firemen and their families, and she meets someone with a similar wounded heart.

All Evan Warren remembers are dusty grey particles and waves of oranges flying across the television screen. His last goodbye to his father was ended with a fight over not wanting to clean his bedroom and he forever regrets not ending things with a more sincere goodbye. Evan’s dad was a hero; a man who fought for the many innocent lives lost on 9-11, and he’ll always remember him as a hero. But Evan still wants his father back. Knowing that he died being a hero isn’t enough to mend Evan’s pain…until he meets a girl who might begin to understand the pain behind a broken heart.

Seeking Perfection

47 parts Complete Mature

Heather lives her life with one purpose: to make her father proud. She's a straight-A student, obedient, respectful, and determined never to disappoint him. Her father has only one rule: no dating in school. But everything changes when she falls in love and gets caught. Her father's reaction is swift and brutal. The man she once admired becomes unrecognizable-controlling, angry, and even physically abusive. Confused and devastated, she can't understand why he treats her so cruelly, especially when her older sister, now in college, never saw this side of him. When her father announces he's marrying a lawyer from his firm, she hopes for change. Instead, things only spiral further. The abuse intensifies, and the emotional wounds deepen as he begins to blame her for her mother's death. In a desperate search for love, truth, and freedom, she uncovers painful secrets buried within her family-realizing her entire life has been built on lies. By the time she pieces everything together, it's too late. What she wanted was simple: happiness, love, and her father's acceptance. What she gets is betrayal, loss, and a shattering truth that will haunt her forever until the day she dies.
