Mully Watts didn't plan to run. But after her mother died, staying in her hometown of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho felt impossible. She left everything behind--except the grief that followed her like a shadow. Now stranded on Whidbey Island, she takes a job at a struggling bookstore run by Harland St. James, a sharp, arrogant man who's only keeping the place open out of obligation to his ailing father.
The store is falling apart. Harland doesn't want help. And Mully isn't sure she wants to stay. But the island has a way of holding people still. As Mully sorts through dusty shelves and tangled emotions, she beings to understand: grief doesn't disappear when you run. It waits. And healing means walking straight into the places you've been avoiding. Will Mully continue to try and avoid her personal ghosts? Or will she face her grief head on... where the shadows hide?

His Bride: Lost & Found
"You're running away from a wedding?" Dev asked, one brow raised. Ananya smirked, leaning back against his SUV like she owned it. "No. My wedding ran away from me." He chuckled, low and lazy. "That's a new one. Bride abandoned at a dhaba in full lehenga." She stepped closer, eyes locked. "Don't act like you're not impressed." He didn't flinch. Just looked at her like she was a riddle wrapped in fire. "I don't do chaos." She tilted her head. "Too bad. Chaos is exactly what I need right now." And just like that - two broken strangers, one lost bride, and five days on the road together. What could possibly go wrong? What happens when a bride gets left behind at a roadside dhaba - by her own wedding caravan? Ananya was supposed to be headed toward a fairy-tale hilltop wedding. Instead, she ends up sipping chai with a stranger who's running from his past. He's broody. She's furious. And the road ahead? Let's just say... it wasn't on the itinerary.Kumpleto
Steady Ground | ✔
He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.
