They say silence is peace - but is that peace is hiding something?
Years after all that chaos, Sierra Monroe finds herself drawn into the "static" once more. What begins as a personal investigation into a string of forgotten crimes leads her back to that name, that God forsaken murderer..Elijah Marrs - the name that once haunted emergency channels and unmarked tapes across the country. Vanished without a trace. Presumed dead. But the sounds never stopped.
As Sierra retraces his steps, peeling back the twisted layers of a boy who became a ghost, she's forced to confront her own past, her obsession, and the truth of what justice really means in a world built on silence. Along the way, she uncovers a breadcrumb trail of journal entries, abandoned homes, and red-scarfed warnings that blur the line between empathy and horror. And maybe even the truth behind that name.
He said he didn't deserve a second chance.
She's not so sure.
Everyone deserves another chance, don't they?

YOURS TO BLEED FOR - A Mystery Thriller Romance
Sierra Whitmore was never meant to be anything more than a responsibility. At least, that's what Caleb told himself the night he took her in-traumatized, orphaned, and marked by the violence her father left behind. As the heir to a powerful security empire, Caleb vowed to protect her from everything. Even from himself. Years later, Sierra is no longer a fragile girl hiding behind locked doors. She's brilliant, brave, and heartbreakingly off-limits. And Caleb? He's still the man who would kill for her... but never touch her. When Sierra's estranged father resurfaces-deadlier than ever-Caleb's iron control begins to fracture. Because protecting her now means dragging her closer, not pushing her away. And Sierra is done pretending she doesn't want more than safety. She wants *him*. But loving her could destroy everything. And this time, Caleb may not be able to walk away. ---Complete

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.
