What Dreams Leave Behind
In the glittering world of wealth and privilege, three unlikely hearts become inexplicably intertwined. Dream, a plus-size black girl with an unforgettable spirit, captures the attention of Cole and Beckett, two heirs to billion-dollar dynasties who share more than just their privileged background. But as their secret romance deepens beneath the shadows of their elite high school, tragedy strikes without warning, none of them anticipate the devastating chain of events that will tear them apart. Years after Dream's mysterious disappearance, a single letter emerges that threatens to shatter their carefully rebuilt lives. As the past collides with the present, these three must face the consequences of choices made long ago - and decide if some bonds are truly unbreakable, even when they've moved on-or so they say.
BLACK AMERICAN PRINCESS (BWWM INTERRACIAL)
Sixteen-year-old Cecily Scott thinks she's just a normal Paris-raised teen with a sharp tongue, a love for croissants, and an annoying little brother. But when her parents summon her and Derrick to America, they drop a royal-sized bomb: Cecily is actually Princess Cecilia Lisaria Joy Bethyssa Scott of Archwin. Cue: marble-floored mansions, a private chauffeur, and enough etiquette lessons to make her want to scream into her canopy bed. Cecily is determined to keep her sarcasm sharp and her crown crooked-until Prince Matthew, the ridiculously charming (and equally royal) heir of another powerful family, enters the picture. Between dodging her mom's endless rules, battling Derrick's antics, and figuring out if Matt is an ally or just another spoiled prince, Cecily's world tilts into glittery chaos. Being a princess isn't all gowns and galas. It's secrets, expectations, whispered alliances... and maybe a forbidden romance that could change everything. Black American Princess is a witty, swoony, and refreshingly bold YA rom-com about discovering who you are-whether you wear a tiara or not.Complete
