The past. Stolen.
Dreams. Gone.
Love. Revenge. Happiness.
Autumn Rose is a former child star, brought to glory because of her famous parents. One day, tragedy struck and they were caught up in a terrible frame-up, making her mother look responsible for the sudden death of her father. Autumn's mother is arrested, leaving Autumn alone for the rest of her life.
Now, twenty years after the murder, Autumn is living a completely different life, far from the one she led before. But she hasn't completely left that behind.
She's out for revenge, knowing her mother didn't commit the murder. The question is: who did?
Autumn's been all alone since that night, and she never thought to change that, until she meets a boy who'll change her life. Someone who makes her want to believe everything will be okay.
But she can't be happy. Not until she finds answers and brings justice to a crime long overdue.
She won't let her mother down. She'll bring justice to her family.
She's Autumn Rose. And she's not going down without a fight.

Wicked Little Words
They promised it was just fun. No strings. No feelings. So why does it feel like everything? At twenty-two, Sloane doesn't have room in her life for heartbreak. Between nursing school, long CNA shifts, and raising her daughter, she barely has time to breathe-let alone fall for someone. So when Braden, a friends boyfriends cocky, charming best friend, makes it clear he's only in it for fun, Sloane agrees. It's safe. Easy. Exactly what she needs. Until it isn't. Because somewhere between the stolen looks, mind-blowing sex and late-night banter, Sloane starts to want more. And without realizing it, so does Braden. But Braden has ghosts that won't stay buried. And when the girl he once claimed to love whispers a lie that cuts too deep, he doesn't just believe it-he uses it to break Sloane in the cruelest way. By the time the truth comes out, Sloane's heart is in ruins, and Braden's the one left bleeding. He never meant to fall for her. He never meant to lose her, either. Now he's ready to fight for the only woman he's ever really loved. But some promises can't be undone. And Sloane might be the one thing Braden can't win back.Complete

I'm not great at writing descriptions, so I'll just say this: I hope you give the story a chance. It's something different I'm trying, and I really hope you enjoy it. Tropes: Age gap Second chance Forced marriage Unrequited love Melo-drama Single parent Happy ending Note: This is my first full-length book, so please forgive mistakes, over-explained parts, and areas that still need editing. It's just a hobby, not professional work. Some chapters have mature content-skip if you're not comfortable. Thanks for reading and supporting my work. Happy reading!Complete

Now, as Aeri stood on the edge of a precipice, torn between duty and love, she realized there was no going back. Because once a secret like this is uncovered, it changes everything. And for Aeri, there was no escaping the tangled web of lies, love, and betrayal that had been spun long before she had ever realized it. In the end, Aeri would have to make a choice.

A choice that could destroy them both. all credits to me and my great mind Ranking #2 on Ningselle thank you so much everyone!!! 🩷Complete

He was getting frustrated by the walls she couldn't break down. Is that what led him to let it all end? After Eli's death, Naomi finds herself back under her Father's thumb. Upon discovering her double life, he makes her choose between life in the cult-like church she was raised and becoming permanently disowned.
