"Being informed that your best friend of fourteen years only has a limited frame of time left on this earth is a stinging blow: accepting this information is no easy feat either."

_-_-_-_

  Imogen Moriarty may seem like she has everything in order. 

 The perfect home, the perfect friends and the perfect grades, but in reality she's barely holding herself together. The heart-wrenching news that her best friend Paige is in need of a heart transplant, and the realisation that her recovery is unlikely, is enough to make Imogen believe that there is no good left in the world.

 Investing all the free time she has into Paige, Imogen can't accept that one day she'll be gone forever until the day Samson Van Der Bilt crashes in all the way from San Francisco. He's an enigma with a glorious tan and mysterious ways. The more Imogen sees of him, the more she gets lost in him... and the more she forgets about Paige.

Will she come back to her bestfriend before it's too late?

-_-_-_-

 A story of loss, love and learning that life goes on.

"I think it's best we stay cordial while we're here. You know, avoid any awkwardness," I say, trying to sound casual. Jay leans against the doorframe, his eyes flickering with amusement as he watches me. "You want to be friends?" "No. I mean, not friends. Just civil," I answer, a little too quickly. "Okay. I can do civil," he says, his gaze never leaving mine like he is trying hard to read me. I look away, suddenly too exposed beneath his gaze. Damnit!This is going to be harder than I thought. - It was a moment. One that could have turned into something more.Until she walked away. Eight months later, Ira has to face him again. And this time, there's nowhere to run. Not for at least a week. After all, it's her best friend's wedding and he's invited too. So, she does what she's always done best-pretend. Pretend nothing happened. Pretend he didn't matter. Pretend her heart didn't skip a beat the second she saw him again. But Jay? He's not playing pretend. With that maddening smile and the kind of charm that should come with a warning, he's determined to remind her of everything she's tried to forget- even the years she's spent years mastering the art of detachment. He's the only one who's ever come close to reaching the version of her that she thought, she had buried long ago. And that's what makes him dangerous. Because she shouldn't return to who she was. She's ice. And he? He's the fire that never stopped burning. The real question is: Can she let his fire thaw the ice that's long been her shield?

Maya thought she had moved on. Seven years after the heartbreak that shattered her world, her best friend Elara returns home engaged to the one man Maya swore she'd never see again. A friendship built on love, but tied by betrayal. A past neither of them can escape. And one secret that could destroy the life they both fought to protect. And in their world, one lie didn't just hurt, it started a domino effect that changed everything. When truth and loyalty collide, the line between love and guilt begins to blur and sometimes, even the purest hearts can cause the deepest wounds.

❝People like you don't get happy endings, not after that.❞ **** Childhood best friends Γ‰tienne LeRoy and Louella Rey were once inseparable-two halves of a perfect whole. Where Γ‰tienne was steady, Lou was wild, filling every moment with laughter and light. But that was before. Before Lou disappeared. At twenty-two, Louella has become a ghost of her former self, retreating into a world of silence and secrets after deferring her college dreams. She's mastered the art of blending into the background, hiding the pain she carries like a bruise that never fades. When Γ‰tienne returns home after a year abroad, he barely recognizes the girl he used to know. Lou's spark is gone, replaced by hollow eyes and a fragile shell of who she used to be. Haunted by the change and unwilling to give up on her, Γ‰tienne sets out to uncover the truth behind her withdrawal. But some truths are better left buried. There's something she's not telling him, something dark-something that involves the one person Γ‰tienne trusts most in the world. The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes, until Γ‰tienne is forced to confront a devastating question: How well do you really know the people you love? **There are serious themes discussed in this book. Please do NOT read if you might be triggered. Your mental health comes first before any stupid book.** Part I is complete. Part II is ongoing.
