Some things you survive. Others follow you. Fourteen months ago, Reece Craig's life changed forever. Since then, he's shut out his friends, pushed away his family and done everything he can to avoid the memories that refuse to leave him alone. Money, privilege and the Craig family name might make his life look perfect from the outside, but behind closed doors, Reece is barely holding himself together. Laura's life looks very different these days, too. A new house. New money. A new beginning she never asked for.

And when Reece discovers the truth, it could destroy the one relationship that finally made both of them want to stop hiding. A story about first love, grief, guilt and forgiveness and two people discovering that sometimes finding your way forward means facing everything you left behind.

We Dream at Midnight (Ember 2)
Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : ❤︎ mature content ❤︎ romance & friendship ❤︎ yearning Copyright © 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

Lost in Us
Lost in Us Rose never believed in love-not the kind that leaves you breathless, not the kind that rewrites your soul. Love was a risk she couldn't afford, a vulnerability too dangerous to entertain. Until Noah. Quiet. Guarded. A boy who let no one in-until her. Through stolen glances and unspoken understandings, they built something fragile in the spaces between words. Something real enough to change them both, yet neither knew how to hold it. Now, they are strangers. Two people who once meant everything to each other, now passing by without a glance. But Rose isn't ready to let go. Not yet. Not until she understands why. As she searches for answers, she finds herself in a battle between holding on and moving forward. Because sometimes, love isn't enough. And sometimes, the hardest lesson of all is knowing when to walk away. This is a story about the love that changes you-the kind that lingers long after it should have faded. About learning when to hold on and when to let go. And ultimately, about discovering that the most important love story isn't the one you shared with someone else, but the one you build with yourself.
