Title: Beneath the Surface
Description:
Willa Emerson thought she'd left the past behind when she stepped onto campus for a fresh start. But the ghosts of high school linger, particularly Ethan Hart-the boy she once trusted, the boy she now hates. Years ago, a devastating secret tore their friendship apart. Now Ethan is everywhere: the charming quarterback with a cocky smile, the guy she swore to avoid but can't seem to escape.
When old truths resurface, Willa's world spirals. Flynn, Ethan's loyal best friend, begins showing interest in her for all the wrong reasons, while secrets whisper through the cracks of their social circle-secrets that Lena and Damien, a seemingly perfect pair with hidden motives, seem to know too well.
Caught between unresolved feelings, betrayal, and growing tension, Willa must decide who to trust and who to push away as Ethan wrestles with his guilt, his loyalty to Gaby-the manipulative girlfriend he can't let go-and his feelings for Willa that refuse to stay buried.
In a story of love, rivalry, and redemption, the lines between enemies and lovers blur. When hearts are fragile and truths are twisted, falling in love feels a lot like falling apart.
Isabella's life has been anything but easy. At 14, she's already endured more than most. Her mother and her mother's boyfriend, Jack, were both controlling and abusive, leaving Isa to navigate the scars of their manipulation. Her mother always told her that her father abandoned them, and she never mentioned anything about brothers. Isa has lived believing she was truly alone.
But everything changes when her mother and Jack are arrested, leaving her without a guardian. With nowhere else to turn, Isabella is sent across the country from Chicago to Los Angeles to live with nine brothers she never knew existed. Struggling with the trauma of her past and the lies she's been fed, Isa finds herself thrust into a new life with strangers she's supposed to call family.
What she doesn't know is that these brothers are far from ordinary. They are not just successful men-they are the leaders of a powerful mafia empire, operating in the shadows of the city. Every brother has secrets of their one, as they have a hard time trusting anyone out of the family. Non the less the 9 brothers form a marvelous team.
