Cassidy Evans never imagined losing it all in a single night - her dreams shattered, her spotlight gone, and her confidence shattered. Then, in the smoky haze of a dive bar, she meets Colton Steele: Major League Baseball's golden boy. One impulsive Vegas wedding later, they strike a wild deal - thirty days to prove if fate got it right.⁣
⁣
Neither of them expects to fall.⁣
⁣
But when a tragic car accident steals Colton's sight, their world crumbles. Grief, stubborn pride, and fear build walls between them - walls that seem impossible to tear down. Cassidy retreats to the quiet comfort of her Texas hometown, brokenhearted, while Colton vanishes into the misty solitude of the Pacific Northwest.⁣
⁣
Seven months pass. Then fate pulls them back together. She's ready to fight for the love they barely had a chance to live. He's convinced he's not worthy.⁣
⁣
Caught between memories, silence, and fragile hope, Cassidy and Colton face the ultimate question: Was their whirlwind romance just a reckless detour... or the true path all along?⁣

Playing with Fire (SAMPLE) by m20anderson

A grumpy/sunshine duo. A motorcycle rally. A slow burn MM romance with sparks, scars, and second chances. Carlos // The thing about fire is, you never notice how close you're standing until it burns. Chuck's that kind of fire-short fuse, sharp tongue, and the kind of stare that pins me in place. He drives me crazy, which would be fine if he didn't also make me laugh, listen, and look twice when no one else does. I told myself helping him plan this rally was just a favor for a friend. Then the late nights started feeling like something else entirely. Chuck // I don't do sunshine. I do engines, late shifts, and keeping my head down. But Carlos has this way of worming into my space, bright and relentless, until I start looking forward to the sound of his laugh more than the roar of my bike. He's everything I don't deserve. He's soft, open, good. And somehow, he's the one thing I can't seem to stay away from. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.

Never A Choice by RoseberryShine29

"No matter the choices I'm given, it'll always be you, Aurie." He was her best friend, her safe place, her everything-the one person who shared the weight on her shoulders. Every laugh, every secret whispered in the night, every quiet moment that stitched to the fabric of her heart made her feel like the world belonged only to them. But then, in the blink of an eye, he chose someone else. Her world crumbles down. Unaware of the truth behind his decision, Aurora Everhart is left to face the hollow ache of losing him. But as fate pulls her between love and heartbreak, she can't shake the question that still haunts her, 'Was I ever really a choice?' "No one shielded me from the storm the way you did, Ronnie. But now you're leaving me alone with nothing to cover myself." His whole world revolved around her, his only best friend, the one person he thought he knew better than anyone else. He understood her every laugh, every whisper, every unspoken thought...but never the secret she had kept so carefully hidden from him, just as his own heart held truths he hadn't fully understood. Bounded by a promise and terrified of the truth buried deep inside that he refuses to acknowledge, he's forced to choose someone else and leave his Aurie alone in the storm. Will he ever be able to win her back, even after the choices he's made? The two promises that tore his life apart- the one that he still upholds and the other that he failed to keep- whisper words of desolation in his ear: 'I promise to keep you happy, I promise to... marry you' and 'I promise, my baby strawberry, if I'm ever lost, I'll always find my way back to you.' We often think the heart and the brain are at odds, but in their tale, we get to know that hearts themselves are their own fiercest contradictors - stubborn, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.
