Alan Wyatt's life is simple-early mornings at the bakery, quiet evenings at home, and a future he can almost predict. That is, until Theo Ryder shows up. Theo is rude, distant, and everything Alan can't stand, but their forced time together at the bakery turns their hostility into an unexpected connection. As the walls between them begin to crumble, Alan realizes the truth behind Theo's guarded eyes, he learns that love can grow where it's least expected-and sometimes, it's the things left unsaid that mean the most.

[BOOK 1] What they have is messy, reckless, and impossible to walk away from🦋 ************* Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks. He's charming, infuriating, and a walking complication she doesn't need. But no matter how hard she tries to keep her distance, there's something about him that feels like gravity, pulling her closer with every encounter. Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.Complet

Miles doesn't want to care. But some connections won't be ignored-and some fires refuse to die. As secrets, lies, and lingering danger threaten to tear them apart, can they survive the past-and each other-or will everything they've fought to protect burn away?Complet
