"Some rooms have no windows because they were never meant to let the light in."
This isn't a story of survival wrapped in neat bows.
This is what comes after the silence.
What it feels like to speak, and not be believed.
What it costs to live through something - and then live with it.
When she returns to the house that swallowed her childhood, she's not there to mourn the man who hurt her. She's there to meet the version of herself who never got to speak.
And this time, she's listening.
In this raw and intimate collection of essay-like chapters, The Room With No Windows explores the quiet devastation of being silenced, the grief of not being protected, and the slow, burning power of reclaiming your truth.
If you've ever been called "too sensitive,"
If you've ever been doubted, erased, or made to feel small - this book is for you.

Jo's brothers are his world. He's spent his entire life sacrificing everything to give them the life he's never had. Having battled through a horrific childhood, his every breath is for the benefit of his brothers, who gave him a reason to live through those years.

Rachel not only recognizes his worth, but is willing to step into his life and share his experiences, no matter how difficult. Despite their mutual attraction, the past and present seem determined to keep them apart. Jo faces another battle: this time against prejudice, past threats, and most powerful of all, the demons inside his head.Terminé

Almost, Always 🍁🥀
"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
I break every night.
I'm not writing this to be strong. I'm writing this because I'm tired of holding it in. I'm just a girl. A teenager. And my life isn't the perfect picture everyone thinks it is. Behind my smile are breakdowns, secrets, and nights where I cry until I can't breathe. This isn't a story. It's my life. It's every thought I was too scared to say out loud. It's the hurt I carry when no one's looking. If you've ever felt like no one understands, if you've ever broken down alone in your room at 2 a.m., then maybe my words will feel like yours too. - Tia Sen.

Ride Me Home
When Dani Vega catches her fiancé in bed with someone else, she doesn't scream or cry-she rides. Leaving behind the life she built in L.A., she roars back to her hometown with nothing but a duffel bag, a broken heart, and her beloved Harley. She swore she'd never return to Ridgepoint. Not to the ghosts. Not to the father who rules the Iron Serpents MC with an iron fist. And definitely not to the three men who were off-limits her whole damn life. But they've changed. And so has she. Diesel-the brooding mechanic with oil-stained hands and a past he's not proud of. Mack-the quiet bruiser who watches more than he speaks...and always protects what's his. Fox-the silver-tongued enforcer with too many tattoos and not enough shame. They're her dad's most trusted crew. Tight as family. Lovers, even. She's not supposed to want them. They're definitely not supposed to want her. But some rules were made to be broken. As sparks ignite and buried truths come to light, Dani finds herself caught between loyalty, desire, and a second chance at a kind of love she never saw coming-one that's wild, unorthodox, and utterly hers. In this town, love rides hard, loyalty rides harder-and Dani's about to learn what it means to truly come home.Terminé
