Eleanor Sinclair-better known as Ella-has escaped her past and is determined to start fresh in Seattle. She's vowed to distance herself from anything that reminds her of her old life, especially the world of the wealthy. Rich people, she's decided, are off-limits. But her life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Morrison Davis, a charming and successful COO of a Fortune 500 company who seems completely smitten with her. Despite her best efforts to keep her distance, sparks fly, and Ella finds herself breaking her own rules, daring to believe in love again. Yet as their romance deepens, things begin to feel almost too perfect. Is it really as simple as finding happiness, or are there hidden details Ella hasn't yet noticed? Will they get their happily ever after, or will secrets from the past and present unravel everything? "So this whole thing...has been a lie?" "Ella..." "No!" I scream, my emotion raw and overflowing. "I trusted you, and this entire time, you have been lying to me...." Bitterness, anger, and betrayal all course through my blood simultaneously as I think through every interaction I've ever had with him. There's a hood of deception that has been blinding me for so long, and now that hood is gone completely replaced by the truth. He is not who I thought he was.

On the Way Down by JenniferFarwell

WATTYS 2024 SHORTLIST ⋆ SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE / CELEBRITY ⋆ They say you meet the same people on the way up and on the way down. In her wildest dreams and story plots, novelist Delaney Sharpe never fathomed this could apply to her, or that it would involve Phoenix Alden, the ex-boyfriend who ghosted her while his acting career was on the rise to Hollywood A-list status. When Phoenix struts back in to Delaney's life after a career nosedive and time away from the spotlight, he claims he's no longer the walking red flag he was when they dated. And when he asks her for a second chance--one weekend together to explain himself and prove he isn't who he used to be--she isn't sure what to do. Reuniting with Phoenix was a daydream Delaney had after he walked out, and before she healed, moved on, and found her own success. Still, it's only one weekend, and there's a spark between them Delaney can't ignore. She can finally get answers about what happened in their relationship and where Phoenix disappeared to. But when the weekend leaves her with deeper feelings than she expected, more questions, and a mystery to solve, Delaney knows she must uncover the truth about the last few years of Phoenix's life to decide if he really has changed, or if he's a danger to more than just her heart. ♥ TROPES IN THIS STORY ♥ Second chance Redemption One bed Emotional scars Is it all as it seems?
