Harper Novak has never been the kind of girl people forget. At five-eleven with storm-gray eyes and a lifetime of scars from farm work, she's learned how to stand her ground - and how to keep people at a distance. Life in Bethany, Connecticut has never been simple, but Harper knows her place in it: work hard, stay steady, and never let anyone close enough to see the cracks. Jonah is the opposite. Quiet, private, the kind of guy who slips through the halls at school without ever being noticed. He's kept his circle small and his world smaller, content to live on the edges. Until Harper Novak starts showing up in it. What begins as uneasy proximity shifts into something else - stolen conversations, late nights that linger too long, and a slow unraveling of the walls they've both built. But Harper carries more weight than she lets on, and Jonah isn't sure if stepping closer means saving her or losing himself. In a town where everyone thinks they know everyone else, Harper and Jonah are about to find out what it really means to be seen.

  • Loving Kade

Evelyn thought love was supposed to save her. At twenty-one, she's living in a cramped Adelaide rental with Jaxon-the boy who once made her feel chosen. He's passionate, intense, and when he's good, he's everything. But when he's not... he's cruel in quiet ways. With words that cut. With silences that scream. With promises that make her stay. Because love is supposed to hurt a little, isn't it? When Jaxon crosses a line she didn't know she had, Evelyn runs-with no plan, no bag, just a cracked phone and shaking hands. She ends up on her brother Jake's doorstep. Safe, but not whole. Then there's Kade. Jake's best friend. Her childhood tease turned quiet protector. He sees too much-asks too little. And something about the way he looks at her makes it hard to breathe. Living with them was meant to be temporary. But Jaxon still calls. Still says all the right things. And Evelyn can't stop loving him-not really. Not yet. As the past claws at her and something softer begins to bloom between whispered conversations and lingering glances, Evelyn is forced to choose: the man who once felt like gravity... or the one who makes her feel weightless.
