Rhea Solis vanished after one unforgivable night-leaving behind smoke, silence, and a family she may have broken beyond repair. Three years later, she's built a fragile life in the shadows, where laughter masks the tremble in her hands and secrets bleed into every quiet breath. But when unexplained bruises start appearing and her body begins to betray her, the illusion of safety shatters. Something is wrong. Deeply wrong. And just as the truth begins to claw its way to the surface, so does a figure from her past-a name she thought she'd never hear again. As the lines between guilt, illness, and memory begin to blur, Rhea is forced to confront what she's been running from all along. But the past doesn't wait politely. It knocks loud. And sometimes, it burns.

You can disappear from everyone.
But how do you hide from yourself?

Southern Charm by anj6232
26 parts Complete Mature
Jessie White stands out from the crowd. As a Southern woman, she defies the typical expectations. While others her age are embarking on new careers, Jessie's upbringing on a ranch alongside four brothers equipped her with skills many would balk at. She's adept at horseback riding, calving, stall cleaning, and more. Fiercely independent, Jessie refuses to rely on any man, a resolve hardened after heartbreak at the hands of Max Lane, a rancher's son, two years prior. Jessie has resolved to take up bull riding, a skill that appears to be a family legacy. Her lifelong dream has been to ride a bull before an audience, but now, her ambition has shifted to rescuing the White Family Ranch after a substantial portion of their funds vanished and debts began accumulating. Max Lane's family is eager to buy the White Family Ranch, but Jessie refuses to let him take away the one thing that sustains her. Being a beauty bartender owner and a female bull rider makes things challenging. Everyone says she can't do it because she's a woman, but Jessie is determined to prove them all wrong. Initially skeptical, Trace Black doesn't recognize her potential until he witnesses her mount a bull for the first time. Although he may appear arrogant externally, that pales in comparison to his internal complexity. Trace and Jessie are initially oblivious to their chemistry, though it's evident to everyone around them. As Jessie gathers the courage to express her feelings to Trace, the things she dreads occur. However, it doesn't make matters worse; it alters everything profoundly. *WARNING* Book contains language, child loss, trauma, etc. Thank you for choosing my story!
