Can love survive when kept in the shadows, or will the weight of secrecy and quiet promises ultimately tear it apart? How long can a heart endure the tension between desire for freedom and the fear of hurting others? How long can two people keep a powerful connection secret before it strains under the weight of fear and loyalty? What will happen if the closest to her discover the truth? Will her fear of hurting them ultimately pull her away from the one she loves, or is there a way to have both?

Lea and Aga share a love that must stay hidden, woven through secrecy and silent promises. Their bond is undeniable, but Lea's deep fear of hurting the person closest to her keeps their relationship in the shadows. Torn between her heart and the expectations of her world, Lea struggles with guilt and longing. Every fleeting moment with Aga draws them closer, even as her worries intensify. They both wonder if love can truly thrive in darkness-or if the strain of secrecy will ultimately pull them apart. As their feelings deepen, Lea faces a difficult truth: Is she willing to risk everything for love?

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

"People would die to see us together." Huh, as if. "Too bad their dreams won't ever come true." I leaned forward and gave him a sorry look. "Ever." I added with a sharp edge and narrowed my eyes. He smirked. I stood my ground. But I could still feel my cheeks take up a slight pink. It also made me think if Sam was my only mysterious problem. But I knew better. ~ They're arch-enemies. One popular, friendly girl and a hugely dangerous secret. One popular, arrogant guy and a dark deadly secret. One ruined relationship. Two entwined secrets. They hate. They bite. They prank.

What she thought would be easy, soon turned into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Feeling history repeat itself, Sam isn't really willing to let everything, including Lea, go easily. Even if his secrets are in danger of being revealed. Now despite all this happening, was friendship; let alone love, still an option for these two? That too, when more than a few guys were willing to fight for Lea's affections? Read to find out. And trust me........

Five Hargreeves has always distrusted Number Eight. From the moment they met, they hated each other-competing at every turn. But when Eight is injured on a mission and disappears after a heated argument with Five, everyone believes she's dead-except Five. Two weeks later, Five storms out of the Academy, only to be trapped in the apocalypse, leaving a hole in the family. In 2019, the family reunites for Sir Reginald Hargreeves' funeral. But it's not just a funeral-it's a reunion. Both Five and Eight return, but something is off about them both. Eight claims she spent the years in a coma, but Five isn't convinced. As he works to stop the impending apocalypse, his suspicions grow. What Five doesn't know-and what Eight hasn't revealed-is that she didn't spend the years in a coma. She joined the Commission, and the truth of where she's been is buried deep. While Five is consumed with saving the world, he can't stop thinking about her. Will she reveal the truth? Or is she playing a dangerous game? Meanwhile, Diego, who shared a connection with Eight during their childhood, is drawn to her again. But where Five sees lies, Diego sees something else. Can Eight's truth heal the family, or will it tear them apart? In the world of the Umbrella Academy, trust is fragile, but desire is a dangerous thing.
