Hearts Don't Break Forever
Alana Riviere grew up fast, and not by choice. Born to teen parents who somehow made it work, she spent her early years in the buzz of New York City, surrounded by ambition, love, and a little bit of chaos. Her mom was a whirlwind of creativity; her dad, the steady rock. Life felt golden-until it didn't. At 14, she lost her older brother, the one who always had her back. Two years later, her younger brother-sweet, shy, and only nine-tried to take his own life after relentless bullying. Then, just when Alana thought things couldn't get worse, her mom cheated, the family split apart, and everything she knew fell apart. Fast forward to 21, Alana's living in LA, modeling for top brands, sipping overpriced matcha, and decorating her apartment with vintage posters and candles she'll never light. She's finally out of a toxic relationship that nearly broke her, and she's found a friend group that feels like the family she lost. Her mom is a stranger now, remarried with two stepdaughters back in New York. But her dad? He's still her favorite person, living in Cape Cod with his kind, considerate fiancée and her now 16-year-old brother, who's doing a lot better. Alana's got her independence, her career, and a hard-earned sense of peace. But when old wounds start to reopen and her friendships are tested, she begins to wonder: is she really as healed as she thinks? Can this new life actually stick? And somewhere in all of this-between heartbreak and healing-is there still a chance for real love?Complete
Deprived: Book Five (bxb) ✔️
Book Five out of five in the New Beginnings Series. OLIVER PIERCE: I've always waited for the darkness to consume me. Every day, I open my eyes, and I wait for it to hit. It never does. I cry for hurt animals, mourn the loss of life, and hurt in the name of others. Empathy is something I have, and it's stronger than I thought. There wasn't any kind of darkness in me, but I still feared it would pop up. Five years ago, my girlfriend of three years completely abandoned me when she found out about my past.

I've known him for the last four years, and he won't leave me alone! He made a bet to win my heart. Our friend group is going on a road trip, and I'm stuck with him as a roommate. I'm straight.

I'd have his heart. I'd have him. And he's all I've ever wanted. However, Oliver swears he's straight, but I noticed the way he looked at me through college. The curiosity in his stare. So, I want to show him what I have to offer him during this damn road trip across the United States. Things don't go at all how I planned.
