The truth shall set you free, but only after it has broken you.
Reserved and introverted freshman, Aiden, met the charming and carefree graduating state university student, Camille, jumpstarting his naive and innocent heart. But their whirlwind romance ended unexpectedly in a devastating disaster with her leaving without so much a goodbye.
And while Camille was desperately running away from her nightmarish past, Aiden was stuck in it, scouring every corner hoping to find her.
Ten years later, they unexpectedly meet in a courtroom as defense attorneys in the scandal of the century. It could very well be the most excruciating litigation Aiden and Camille will ever fight for. As the truth is exposed, Camille's past catches up to her. This time, however, she was not running away. Even if it meant digging up the past, opening wounds, and facing the brutal truth about her past.
Even if it means breaking Aiden into pieces all over again.

But when she decides to give love a chance, everything changes. Old secrets, buried truths, and unexpected challenges surface, forcing Camille to confront her past while navigating first loves, forgiveness, and the unpredictable twists of life. Follow her journey as she learns that growing up isn't just about finding yourself, it's about learning to trust, to love, and to face whatever comes next." Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

His Secret
Amira Hart was never meant to be part of the story. Not the public one, anyway. But behind every polished legacy is the girl no one talks about-the one who was loved in secret, then left in silence. For two years, Amira and Brooks Whitmore IV lived in that silence. He was the President's son, raised for cameras and campaign trails. She was the woman he chose when no one was watching. Their worlds were never meant to meet. The cards were stacked long before they kissed in the dark. Now, two years later, a wedding invitation arrives. His name is on it. So is hers. Told in fragments and flashbacks, His Secret is a quiet storm of a love story-about memory, erasure, and the women history tries to forget.Kumpleto
Ungodly Hour | d.e.
Success doesn't equate happiness. I've had to learn that the hard way over the years. With every disappointment, every let down, every heartbreak, my solution was to just achieve something. Gain a new award, a higher accolade, a bigger position. The distractions only work temporarily, but once it dies down you realize that you're left with just you. You realize that you're still alone, still a failure in other aspects of life, and still hiding from the past. My name is Brynn. I got married at nineteen to my college sweetheart, and at the age of twenty four I found myself packing up and leaving him in the middle of the night. During that ungodly hour is when everything starts to hit you, when everything begins to resurface. My husband never attempted to come after me, never even attempted to reach out to me. Yet I still find myself going to sleep with him on my mind. I can still feel his touch if I dream hard enough. I still find myself keeping up with his social media, following his life from a distance. Only in that ungodly hour do I let my fantasies roam free and allow myself to miss him. I allow myself to still love him, still care for him. As long as I know that once morning hits it's back to business, back to being distracted, and back to being alone.Kumpleto

The scandal destroyed her family's name, shattered her dreams, and left her to bear the brunt of public humiliation. In a society that blamed her for everything, Evelyn did the only thing she could: she rose from the ashes. Years later, she's one of the most feared and respected lawyers in the country - until one case breaks her resolve and she disappears from the courtroom without warning. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. When Nathaniel's own sister is devastated by a similar betrayal and takes her life, he is desperate for justice. No lawyer is willing to fight for a case everyone believes is already lost - except for the one woman he wronged the most. Evelyn. Silent. Unforgiving. Brilliant. As she reluctantly steps back into the courtroom, the past simmers between them. Nathaniel is haunted by guilt and drawn to the woman he abandoned. Evelyn speaks only when required, avoids the past, and focuses on justice - but her silence screams louder than words. What begins as a legal battle turns into an emotional reckoning. Regret. Redemption. And a slow-burn connection that neither of them expected. Because sometimes, the most powerful verdicts aren't spoken in court - they're written in the heart.Kumpleto
