Fixing Grace
Caleb is a National Guard mechanic with a quiet soul, rough hands, and a history he doesn't talk about. Aaliyah is a single mother with two kids, a past she's fought to outrun, and no room left in her heart for fairytales. Their worlds collide when her car breaks down and he shows up-not just to fix the engine, but slowly, quietly, to start fixing everything else, too. This is a story about healing, about second chances, and about the kind of love that doesn't shout-but stays. It's raw. It's imperfect. And maybe, just maybe, it's grace.Complete

But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence.

Heal, Don't Fall in Love
Ellie Ryan lived for the ice. She was born a champion, and her only goal was to become the best figure skater in the world-to fulfill the promise she made to her father before he died. But a single moment shatters everything. During their final performance, a mistake by her partner, James, leaves Ellie with a devastating spinal injury. Now, her frozen arena is replaced by hospital corridors and the sterile walls of a rehabilitation center. As she battles physical pain and the betrayal of the person she trusted most, Ellie meets Nick-a strict, uncompromising physical therapist who doesn't believe in defeat and refuses to accept the word "impossible." At first, they clash. But little by little, something begins to grow between them-something deeper than the fragile trust between a patient and her therapist. Can Ellie rise again and chase the dream she once lived for, when it feels like everything has already been lost? And how do you stop yourself from falling for the one who's teaching you how to stand again? A story of resilience, spirit, passion, and unexpected love-born where it was never meant to be.
