Loving The Liar
I met him in the ward-room 407, just down the hall from mine. He said he was broken like me. Quiet. Gentle. Safe. But he's not a patient. He checked himself in. And I'm the reason he came. After the overdose, they said I'd lost control. But he knows the truth-because he's the one who watched me fall. Now I'm stuck inside this hospital with him, and the boy I'm falling for might be the very reason I tried to die. He says he can fix me. But first, I have to remember what he did.Kumpleto
When Shadows Speak ~ A Simon Riley Fanfiction (COD)
"Our scars don't define us. They are merely way points on our journey of survival. Markers, to show us all the hardships we've had to endure. Accepting them is the first step to appreciating how far we've actually come." *~~~* Second chances usually entail some sort of redemption - An opportunity to right ones wrongs... However, redemption is probably the last thing on Cora's mind as she emerges from the shadows with silent inevitability, the moolight glinting off the edge of her blade. Throat slit. Blood gushing, gurgled gasping, a wet thump as the body hits the ground. They never even saw her coming. Redemption... Bah! In about eight years, that word had never even crossed the young girl's mind. And why should it? In Cora's unwavering opinion, redemption was for the weak. "Ye pick a path and ye fuckin' stick to it!" At least, that's what she thought she believed. Until someone showed her otherwise...
THE EDGE OF NINETEEN(19)(EDITING)
"Some stories aren't just written-they're survived." Heaven never planned to fall apart quietly. Nineteen was supposed to be her year of survival. Instead, it became the year everything unraveled-family, friendships, and the walls she built around her pain. Diagnosed with BPD, trapped between silence and screams, and carrying scars she thought no one could love, she was certain the world had forgotten her. Then came Chase-gentle, persistent, and painfully human. What began as an accidental connection in a library became the lifeline she never knew she needed. This is not a love story in the way you expect. It's about healing in slow, aching pieces. It's about therapy sessions, midnight breakdowns, found family, and daring to believe in something softer. It's about what happens when you stop surviving and start living. And maybe, just maybe-find someone worth fighting your way back for. Raw. Real. Relatable. If you've ever been on the edge of something-grief, love, adulthood, or your own mind-this book is for you. ---Kumpleto

What The Heart Remembers
Elizabeth Morgan knows what it means to survive. She endured the slow erosion of self-worth under a charming but controlling partner. After leaving Daniel, the man who quietly broke her spirit, her heart quite literally gave out. Diagnosed with stress-induced heart failure, she faced a year of limbo-grieving what was, fearing what's next, and clinging to the fragile hope of a transplant. Two years later, Elizabeth has a new heart and a quiet life. She's rebuilt from the ground up, choosing safety over risk, solitude over vulnerability. Love is no longer a part of the plan. Then she meets John Pearson-a warm, grounded literature professor who doesn't ask her to be anything more than she already is. What begins as a gentle friendship rooted in books and easy conversation begins to stir something deeper. But vulnerability is its own risk. As their bond grows, so do the fears Elizabeth thought she'd buried-fears of loss, of being broken again, of not surviving a second time. When John offers a love that feels steady and true, Elizabeth is faced with a question she never thought she'd ask again: Can she give her heart to someone new, knowing how fragile it's become-and how much it cost to start over? What the Heart Remembers is a story of resilience, healing, and the quiet courage it takes to open your heart again. Tender, hopeful, and emotionally rich, it's a celebration of second chances and love that's truly earned.Kumpleto
