Gray Mount ain't a city; it's a battlefield.
Raised in the wreckage, Kali Holmes was never taught to love, only to survive. Every laugh is a weapon, every glance a threat.
But when she meets Osiris, a boy with eyes that see through smoke, something dangerous sparks inside her.
In a world built on control and cruelty, Kali's about to start her own war: one fought with fire, heart, and the hunger to hunt her way out of hell.

Three's twenty-five with a heavy past and an even heavier heart. The streets taught him to move ruthless, but one look at Kori had him rethinking everything.

She's learning to trust. Together they're walking a line between danger and devotion. Where every laugh, every glance, every silence feels like more than it should. This isn't just a love story. It's a slow burn in real time with two hearts circling the fire, daring each other to step closer.Completa
The Runaway Roots: A Seabrook Story Comedy-Drama Novel)
The Weavers arrive in the postcard-perfect town of Seabrook, Maine, desperate to shed their nomadic, shadowed existence. For Elara, it's a chance to build a real home; for Ginny, it's a terrifying opportunity for normalcy she craves but fears she can't handle. Their attempts to assimilate are immediately complicated: Ginny clashes (and then sparks) with her charming neighbor Liam, while his twin sister Sadie adopts Ginny with the force of a hurricane, dragging her into a vibrant friend group. Meanwhile, Elara finds an unexpected connection with the steady, kind hardware store owner next door, David, but is also intrigued by the enigmatic writer, Julian, whose own past seems tantalizingly shrouded. When Martin discovers Ginny's hidden scars, he insists on therapy and enrolls her in a community poetry class. There, Ginny meets Finn, whose intense gaze and raw poetry resonate deeply with her own hidden pain. Suddenly, Ginny is navigating two compelling but very different romantic possibilities: sunny Liam and his stable world, or brooding Finn who understands her darkness. As Ginny grapples with therapy, first loves, intense friendships, and the pressure of fitting in, Elara juggles her own dual suitors while trying to keep her family's past buried. But Seabrook has eyes, and whispers start. Old anxieties resurface as mysterious events hint that their flight might not be over. Through chaotic town events, heartfelt (and hilarious) moments with Sadie's squad, intimate confessions, stolen kisses, and the cathartic power of poetry, both mother and daughter must confront their pasts, embrace vulnerability, and decide not just who to love, but what kind of life - and roots - they are truly brave enough to build.

Crooked Smile.
Montana Jalahni Banks is a ghost-a name whispered in the streets but never confirmed. No paper trail. No fingerprints. No slip-ups. He built his empire in the shadows, moving with the kind of precision that makes him untouchable. But in a game where loyalty runs thin and enemies multiply, even ghosts can be hunted. Tahani Elise Campbell was born into survival. She and her little sister, Tahara, have never known a life untouched by struggle. Orphaned young and tossed into the system, they learned quickly that softness gets you killed. For Tahani, writing became her only escape-but words can't keep the lights on, and dreams don't scare off monsters. When their paths collide, it's fire and ice. Tahani sees through Montana's coldness, past the mask he shows the world. And Montana? He knows better than to let someone like her close. She's smart, too observant...and worst of all-she makes him feel. But in a world where love is dangerous and survival is never guaranteed...will a crooked smile be enough to save them, or will it cost them everything?
