This is the story of Sean Connelly, an Irish widower who has spent the last 14 years building a life for his daughter and growing his Guinness-inspired brewery in Kinston, North Carolina. He's never looked back-until now.
As Sean begins to open his heart to love again, his daughter Cordelia finds herself watching her world shift. Just as she starts her freshman year of high school, she must navigate new friendships, growing pains, and the unexpected challenge of sharing her father's heart.
A story of grief, growth, and second chances-told through the eyes of a young girl coming of age and a father learning to live again.

Heartbreak Express
🏆 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 | She ran from her wedding the day she found out the groom was expecting a baby with someone else. Now, with a broken heart and no suitcase, she's starting over in London... Two men, one new life and a second chance she never saw coming. Isabella Solène Hart was supposed to be a bride. Instead, she became a woman who walked away from betrayal, from shame, from the version of love that left her undone. London offers her nothing but silence and strangers and that's exactly what she needs until it starts to offer more. A job at a luxury PR firm, a flat that slowly becomes a home, a local café with warm coffee and warmer smiles, a neighbour with a cat named Rufus and a shopkeeper named Robert, gruff, loyal, quietly becoming the father figure she never had. But nothing shakes her more than the two men who begin to orbit her new life. Skylar, the charming café owner with kind eyes, he makes her laugh again, makes her feel again, but when it matters most... he stays silent. And Sebastian, the enigmatic CEO with ice-blue eyes and power in every breath. He shouldn't be looking at her the way he does, he shouldn't know who she is, but he does and what begins as a spark quickly threatens to set fire to the walls she's still rebuilding. Now Bella must navigate more than just a second chance, she must decide what kind of love she's ready for and whether she can open her heart again without losing herself in the process. It's a story of loss, of starting over, and the two men who force her to face what love really means. Of heartbreak turned healing, of strangers turned family. It's not just about falling in love, it's about who you become when your world shatters... and you choose to rise anyway.Complete
