Sommer has always felt different but didn't know why-until she meets Jordan, the sweet and caring deputy who opens her eyes to a world she never thought she could be part of. As their friendship deepens, Sommer begins to confront the parts of herself she's kept hidden, unsure of what it means to be true to her heart.
Navigating the messy, complicated journey of self-discovery, Sommer makes mistakes and stumbles, but through each misstep, she finds pieces of herself she never knew existed. As she learns to embrace her identity, she also learns how to love-first herself, and then the person who makes her feel truly seen. But love, in all its beautiful imperfection, isn't always easy. With the pressure of family expectations, the sting of past heartbreaks, and the risk of losing the person she's grown closest to, Sommer's path to love is anything but smooth.
The Truth I Found in Her is a raw, heartfelt tale of embracing one's truth, learning through trial and error, and finding the courage to live a life unapologetically your own.

Back To You
Madison thought she had closed the door on Tayler forever. Two years ago, she walked away, leaving behind the only boy who ever truly knew her-the one who made her feel safe, seen... and ultimately, shattered. She swore she'd never look back. But now, fate has other plans. Thrown back into each other's lives, Madison tells herself she's over him. That what they had is nothing more than a distant memory. But Tayler? He makes forgetting impossible. He's still the same cocky, flirtatious guy who knows exactly how to push her buttons-and pull her back in. Every lingering glance, every teasing remark feels like a dangerous game, and she's not sure she knows the rules anymore. But between them stands more than just unfinished business. New love, tangled emotions, and the unshakable weight of what once was. Madison knows she should keep her distance, but when it comes to Tayler, that's always been easier said than done. "You still look at me the same way," she muttered, hating the way her voice wavered. Tayler smirked, stepping closer, his voice low and daring. "And you still get flustered when I do." She should leave. She should mean it this time. But what if their story was never meant to end-just to begin again?Complete
