She spent her life waiting for a father's love that never came.
Now, after losing everything, he's the one trying to save her.
Seventeen-year-old Ava Delaney thought she understood pain-until she learned the truth. Her mother trapped her father with a pregnancy he never wanted. Her father built a new family without her. And when Ava begged him to forget she existed, he did.
Months later, bruised and broken in a hospital bed after a violent night, Ava opens her eyes to find him there-the man who left her behind. But love doesn't heal overnight. Moving in with her father's perfect new family only opens new wounds: a kind stepmother who doesn't know how to help, a sweet little sister who adores her, and a half brother who hates her on sight.
As Ava struggles to rebuild her life, she finds solace in Liam, the school's notorious bad boy who sees the pain she hides. But forgiveness isn't easy-not for her father, not for her brother, and not for herself.
When buried secrets resurface, Ava must decide whether to keep running from the past or face it head-on-and whether broken hearts can still learn how to love.
A story of family, forgiveness, and first love-The Unwanted Daughter is a heart-wrenching emotional romance about what it means to be seen, to be chosen, and to finally belong.

The Girl I Once Loved
Ethan Harper thought he understood love when he fell for Ava Bennett- a raw, passionate, and unbreakable love. In their small town, they were inseparable, dreaming of a future far beyond the limits of their reality. But one fateful night changed everything. A cryptic letter, an unanswered phone call, and a betrayal neither of them could explain drove Ethan to leave without looking back, leaving Ava in the wreckage. Ten years later, Ethan has built a life that looks perfect on paper but feels empty in his heart. When a sudden inheritance pulls him back to the town he swore he'd never return to, he finds himself face-to-face with Ava, now a celebrated artist whose fame stems from her haunting, enigmatic work. As Ethan delves into the meaning behind Ava's art, he uncovers truths he was never meant to know- about their past, the betrayal that tore them apart, and a shadowy figure who orchestrated their heartbreak. With danger closing in and the lines between love and obsession blurring, Ethan and Ava must decide if the spark they once had can survive the truth-or if some wounds cut too deep to heal. A gripping tale of love, loss, and redemption, The Girl I Once Loved explores how far two people will go to uncover the truth and whether the bonds of the heart can withstand the test of time.Abgeschlossen
