An encounter with the Walker Twins, leaders of a subversive organisation, throws her into a blind alley as she tries to save herself from the dangerous fate that awaits her.
Looking for a way to turn back to her world, what will cross her path in the meantime? Hardship? Crime? Betrayal? New friendships? And perhaps, love?

Care to Command
Office enemies fight for the same promotion, while resisting their growing chemistry. LAYLA masks her insecurities behind perfectionism. The goofy girl who loved flowers and cooking for her parents is now a workaholic and out of touch with herself. All she's able to focus on is to get promoted so that she has a chance to feel confident and earn her dad's long-awaited approval. LUCAS hides a heavy burden with charm and nonchalance. The boy who used to be nurturing and open now pretends to joke around without a care. What he doesn't share is that he might want that promotion to fulfill his own voids just like her. One thing leads to another, and the two find themselves in unprofessional settings where their masks slowly come off, showing how similar they are, and just how much they might need each other.

The Prodigal
Eli told Naomi he would wait forever, until the day he ended his life. When they met in her freshman year of college, Naomi never told her ultra-conservative father that she had found love. Eli swore he would wait until she was ready, but Naomi always knew he wanted more than anything to share every part of their lives with each other. 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. Unable to leave questions about Eli's death unanswered, Naomi musters every ounce of courage she possesses to break free from her Father's control once and for all. Naomi embarks on a journey into Eli's past that leads to both new connections and devastating truths about her own family. Naomi soon realizes that her whole life is a mystery, built on lies and filled with twists and turns she never could have anticipated.
