*SUICIDE, PTSD & ABUSE AWARNESS*
Jacqueline Sloane and Jethro Gibbs have always had a connection. They've always clicked. They viewed the world very similarly and they were just so alike in many ways.
Neither had ever admitted it but there was a spark between them. The spark lit the moment that they'd met. They didn't know then that they'd later fall in love with each other.
Love wasn't the problem though. The problem was that they didn't know how to tell each other about their feelings. For Gibbs, it was every relationship he'd ever had. Everyone he'd ever gotten close to, had gotten hurt. Gibbs had one fear, he was scared of something happening to the people he cared most about in this world. 
For Jack, it was the moment that haunted her to this day. Her last relationship was abusive and she was raped, resulting in a baby that she had to put up for adoption, for a better life, when she was only eighteen. Even though it was so long ago, she was scared of this happening again.
This relationship haunted her everyday. She had so many nightmares about it. These nightmares resulted in suicidal thoughts and self-harm. Because of this, Jack decides to step away from her job at NCIS.
Will Gibbs tell Jack about his feelings before it's too late? What will happen between Jack and Gibbs? What will happen to their Christmas celebrations? And more importantly, will Jack be able to escape her past traumas and PTSD?

❝People like you don't get happy endings, not after that.❞ **** Childhood best friends Étienne LeRoy and Louella Rey were once inseparable-two halves of a perfect whole. Where Étienne 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 Étienne 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, Étienne 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 Étienne trusts most in the world. The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes, until Étienne 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.

Sixteen years ago, my sisters and I moved from France to the United States to live the American dream. Not long after, I met Declan, a marine who was home for his mother's funeral. He was my everything, my world, and the love of my life. Four and a half years later, I became his fiancée. Then, when I thought everything was going well, my world ended when I awoke to him gone. No note, no nothing. He was just gone. I waited days, weeks, and months to hear from him and for his return. That never happened. Then, I met Chadwick, who took the pieces of my broken heart and put them back together. He promised me many things during our dating years, guaranteeing he'd give me the world. And he was. Then, after years of not wanting to give my entire heart to him, fearing he'd do what Declan had done, I pushed the fear of him leaving me aside and married him. The night we married, instead of giving me the world he promised, I was gifted a nightmare. For over six years, I lived in a lake of fire. If I wasn't locked in a dark, cold room for days on end, day and night, I was tormented, punished, abused, and tortured in the blackest darkness until I could no longer see, talk, or move. Maltreating me until he broke me. Finally, one of my prayers was answered when an ally close to Chadwick helped me escape the prison of hell. She flew me out of New York and brought me to her friend's home in Mobile, Alabama, where I got the shock of my life. He wasn't just her "friend." He was a ghost from my past, and now I'm in his care. Oh, and he has a child nearly as old as our breakup.
