Clara Monroe is sunshine in a coffee mug-warm, bright, and a little too loud for her new neighbor's taste. After a devastating breakup and a creative rut that's left her art studio collecting dust, she moves into a small apartment hoping for a fresh start. She's determined to stay cheerful. Determined not to fall apart again.
Callum Ward is all shadows and silence. A grumpy ghostwriter with a locked past, Callum wants nothing more than peace, quiet, and strong coffee. But peace is the last thing he gets when Clara moves in next door with her music, her humming, and her maddening positivity.
When noise complaints turn into passive-aggressive sticky notes, something unexpected happens-the sarcasm turns into banter. The banter becomes connection. And behind the thin wall, two lonely hearts begin to hear each other.
But Clara is hiding the truth of why she really left. And Callum is running from what broke him long ago.
And eventually... even thin walls can crack.
Through Thin Walls is a slow-burn, heart-tugging story about finding comfort in unexpected places-and the love that quietly saves you when you're not looking.

What starts as a glance becomes a game-light touches in crowded rooms, words that feel like secrets, the heat of his body close enough to taste. Every day, the space between them gets smaller. And when it finally disappears... there will be no going back.

THE PORTRAIT OF YOU
After a tragic accident destroys her career and reputation, Ava Vale walks away from the world of interior design and reinvents herself as a traveling restorer of forgotten art, she finds purpose in restoring what others abandoned. She hides behind brushes and varnish, far from the city that broke her spirit-until a call sends her to the crumbling estate of Caelum Thorne, a brilliant painter who vanished years ago. What she expects: a house full of decaying canvases. What she finds: a man still mourning the woman who left him... and a portrait that looks exactly like her. Same face. Same lips. Same haunting beauty. The only difference? The eyes. Ava's are brown. The woman in the painting-Evelyn-had piercing blue. When Callum sees her, he falls apart. "You came back to me," he whispers. But Ava is not Evelyn. She's not a ghost, not a muse, not the girl who left him behind. And yet... he paints her. Again and again. Desperate to reclaim her identity, Ava strikes a deal: She'll help him find Evelyn-if he hands over all of his art. But the longer she stays, the more she sees the man behind the madness. And the more Caelum paints, the more he sees Ava-not the memory. Until one day, Evelyn returns. And Ava must decide if she's strong enough to walk away from a man who never asked her to stay. But behind every portrait... a secret waits to be answered-why did Evelyn leave? A love story layered with obsession, identity, and betrayal. He spent years painting the woman who left. Until a stranger taught him how to love someone who stayed.Complete
