Sophomore 21 year old Alan Pitch lives a boring life. He always yearned for the day he would finally leave his hometown RedCliff, and move away to London for college. Things turned out well, but not as exciting as he thought they'd be. Life is grey, and Alan starts to yearn for something more. That is, until a tragedy happens back at home, when his mother's and sister's corpses are found beheaded on their own house. No clues are found by the police whatsoever, not even a small index or trail. Feeling guilty and devastated by their loss, and thirsty for revenge, Alan decides to return to RedCliff, and is determined to unveil the mystery of the person who murdered his family. The real question is, once Alan puts the pieces together, will he really want to know the truth?

On the morning of her third wedding anniversary, Charlotte Wilson learns the truth. Her husband has been betraying her for years with her best friend. The betrayal cuts deeper when she discovers her half-sister, Anna Wilson, has been helping them, eager to seize the inheritance her mother left behind. Stripped of her shares and left to die, Charlotte's final moments are filled with one bitter truth: the people she trusted most were the ones who destroyed her. But death is not the end. Charlotte wakes up five years in the past, armed with the knowledge of every betrayal and every person who smiled while stabbing her in the back. This time, she will not be the woman they ruined. She will protect what is hers, expose every lie, and make those responsible pay for everything they took from her. But there is one part of her past she never understood. Warren Solomons... The man she once trusted and admired, whose sudden absence from her life had left a wound she never quite understood. In her first life, Charlotte believed she knew the truth about Warren. He never explained himself. And somewhere between Charlotte's shattered trust and Warren's silence, the two people who had once been inseparable became strangers. What Charlotte never knew was that Warren had been secretly in love with her all along. He was decisive, calculating, sharp, and accustomed to keeping his emotions carefully guarded. But beneath that controlled exterior was the same boy who had loved her long before either of them understood what love meant. Now Charlotte has a second chance. And some second chances exist because the truth was never given its first one.Complete
