In order not to get hurt we tend to conceal our heart with an ironclad barrier. But what if we have to learn everything again. A girl with painful past, that turned her antisocial, suffers brain damage in an accident and loses all her memories. She is able to form new memories, so she starts learning again in order to become normal. Thankful to her amnesia she is now more cheerful, more open to people and more lively than she had ever been. She is clueless about what mental trauma she had been through all her life prior to the accident, but in her sleep subconsciously she always had nightmares of her past. In this new journey, she has support of a doctor who actually hit her with his car and made her suffer with amnesia, PTSD, anger issues, nightmares, and many more... With time they come close and as if destined they fall in love with each other. This story tells about the journey of a girl who starts learning from zero and rises to become a star loved by everyone because she applies what she had been taught throughout her learning process. She is pure, straightforward, nature lover, independent, hates discrimination of any kind and brave to show the world that truth always wins.

Just Do It by Harshit_3011

This book is based upon this beautiful quote. "Do what you love,don't love what you do." You see, you have two options in life: 1. Do what others are doing and finally become like them. 2. Do something you enjoy. But doing something of your choice isn't easy. You face criticism from your friends and family, you are mocked by the small minded ones, you take risks and fail due to which you may get demotivated and it's absolutely sure that you'll be alone on that path. But you if are determined to just do it no matter how many times you fail, you will succeed and everyone who mocked you or demoralized you will come looking for you. This whole story revolves around this one thought. How a college going boy decides to do the things his way and gets the success he deserves in end.

How we made it in South Africa by BenGrahamvanderSandt

I invite you to share in our journey. I started writing this book 13 May 2008 It takes you through our whole experience of rising up and prospering in South Africa - even under a racist ANC government. I've written this book as an inspiration, that even in the face of huge adversity, you can come out on the other side and make it. However, my wish for you is not to only "make it" - but live your best life. I invite you to come on this journey with us. It was sometimes an emotional rollercoaster with many trials and tribulations, but the end result was worth it. This book is very special and unique in the sense that it was started and written while I was at the lowest point in my life with no salvation in sight... It's wasn't written in hindsight or after the fact. It started with hope, a dream, a promise. You will see when you start going through these pages - If I could make it, surely you can. The book also has a public Facebook page "How we made it in South Africa" with loads of pictures and videos of us and our adventures. You're most welcome to visit the page and say hi. Enjoy your journey.

A Woman's Love is Never Good Enough 2nd edition by cjacks1124

A Woman makes so many sacrifices on a daily basis for her spouse, her children, family, and friends, which often goes unnoticed and unappreciated. A woman's love and kindness are often perceived as weakness. She is discriminated against in the workplace because of her gender. Not only does she face discrimination from the opposite sex, but she often encounters females' co-workers who do not support her and are jealous of her achievements.This book will resonate with women who feel that despite everything they do and the love they give they are unappreciated, unfairly judged, and taken for granted at every turn.A woman works long and hard for everyone else, whether it's for her family or at her job, yet she often neglects to give herself the same consideration. She needs to rid herself of the toxic relationships that are bringing her down and enjoy the relief that it brings. A woman needs to be a warrior for herself, and realize that no matter how much she tries to please, and care about other people, her love alone is never good enough.

Dedication To every girl who has ever been told she is not enough- You are more than enough. You are fire, strength, and freedom. This is for you. And to my parents, who taught me the meaning of love and courage, even in silence. Acknowledgments This book would not exist without the inspiration drawn from the resilience of young girls across Kenya and beyond, who continue to rise against all odds. To the brave women and men who work tirelessly to end harmful traditions and pave the way for education, dignity, and choice-thank you. To my readers: Thank you for walking this journey with Chebet. May her story stay with you, stir your soul, and spark change in the world around you. To my mentors, friends, and loved ones who cheered me on, shared insights, and encouraged this dream into reality-your support means everything.

ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY by PearlEghagha

When life's going gets tough, always remember the road that leads home. We all need someone to lean on. Family isn't always defined by blood, it's defined by loyalty, faithfulness and trust. Too many of us hasten off, wanting to be on our own because we have been betrayed. Too quickly we burn bridges, but what if we fixed em? What if we stayed? What if we made things right? You miss them don't you? Your Dad, your mum, uncle and aunt. Siblings, cousins; the name is yours to define. This book aims to give back what's lost, and help us become whole, united and unbreakable. To look beyond rage and fury, and see that humanity isn't perfect. Things are messed up but we can all have "One Big Happy Family."

Eternal Echoes by JoanneLo22

⚠️ Warning Below This is the story of a little girl who learned to grow in the silence-like a wildflower blooming through cracks in concrete. She lived in a house of shadows, where the walls whispered violence, and silence became her shield. Her days were shaped by what was unspoken-by hands that harmed, by trust that fractured, by love that came laced with pain. But even in that stillness, something stirred. Instead of drowning in the quiet, she began to listen-to the words of others who had walked through similar storms. Their stories were not just stories. They were maps, mirrors, and lifelines. Through their truths, she began to uncover her own. Now, she turns inward and outward, breaking her own silence-not with a scream, but with a steady voice that has waited a lifetime to be heard. This book is not just about trauma. It is about the bones of a broken girl who built a life from what was left behind. It's about grief, and the ghosts of family. About the way innocence can be stolen, yet spirit still survives. It's about the quiet power of letting go. But above all-it's about freedom. The kind you find not by fighting, but by finally releasing what was never yours to carry. And if even one soul finds a piece of themselves in these pages, then her voice, at last, has done what silence could not. ⚠️WARNING Author's Note & Content Warning: This is a deeply personal and emotional story that touches on domestic violence and childhood sexual abuse. While written to bring awareness, healing, and understanding, I recognise these topics may be distressing for some readers.
