Layla Harper has spent years building walls around her heart, using her art and her café as a shield against a world that has let her down too many times. Haunted by betrayal and a painful past, trust is a luxury she can't afford-until she meets Marcus Wright.

Marcus, a charming and steadfast man with a quiet strength, sees beyond Layla's defenses. He's a man who knows what he wants, and what he wants is to help Layla rediscover the beauty in love and life. As their worlds collide, Marcus offers her the one thing she's convinced herself she can't have: happiness.

But the path to healing isn't smooth. Layla must confront her past, face her fears, and learn to let someone in, even when it feels impossible. With Marcus by her side, she begins a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the courage to dream again.

In this heartfelt story of second chances and unwavering love, Layla and Marcus prove that even the deepest scars can bloom into something beautiful when nurtured by trust and devotion. Will Layla risk her fragile heart to embrace the love she deserves, or will fear keep her locked away from her own happy ending?

Zayd, a young man caught between familial expectations and personal dreams, returns to his hometown searching for meaning. There, he meets Layla, a resilient and independent woman whose strength masks the wounds of her own scarred history. Together, they embark on a journey that redefines love-not as a cure for brokenness but as a partnership where two people grow, heal, and flourish side by side. Pragmatic and supportive, he hides his pain beneath layers of strength, showing how trauma can manifest in unseen ways. With the steadfast support of Zayd's elder sister, a beacon of wisdom and care, the group begins to weave a tapestry of healing and understanding.

It illustrates how love, both romantic and platonic, can guide people through life's darkest moments and toward a brighter, hopeful horizon.

Inks and Pixels (18+) by herserendipity

But her double life unravels in the blink of an eye when a workday hiccup forces her out the door. The twist of fate that awaits her? A showdown at the local grocery store, with a steely-eyed, pizza-thieving artist named Aiden Mitchell. Aiden, with his unwavering commitment to realism in art (and life), is a force to be reckoned with. Harper's world of fantasies and escapism clash head-on with his no-nonsense approach. Pixels collide with prose, ink mingles with sparks, and amidst this artistic clash, Harper and Aiden are about to embark on a rollercoaster of chaos and comedy. Their journey, peppered with fierce rivalries, unexpected discoveries, and more heated showdowns than they ever bargained for, leads them to answer one question: can love be made out of inks and pixels? © Beatrice Manuel, All Rights Reserved

His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a better life outside of the dangerous one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she finds herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia. She quietly enjoys her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another as they try to navigate mending each other's wounded hearts.
