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.All Rights Reserved

They promised it was just fun. No strings. No feelings. So why does it feel like everything? At twenty-two, Sloane doesn't have room in her life for heartbreak. Between nursing school, long CNA shifts, and raising her daughter, she barely has time to breathe-let alone fall for someone. So when Braden, a friends boyfriends cocky, charming best friend, makes it clear he's only in it for fun, Sloane agrees. It's safe. Easy. Exactly what she needs. Until it isn't. Because somewhere between the stolen looks, mind-blowing sex and late-night banter, Sloane starts to want more. And without realizing it, so does Braden. But Braden has ghosts that won't stay buried. And when the girl he once claimed to love whispers a lie that cuts too deep, he doesn't just believe it-he uses it to break Sloane in the cruelest way. By the time the truth comes out, Sloane's heart is in ruins, and Braden's the one left bleeding. He never meant to fall for her. He never meant to lose her, either. Now he's ready to fight for the only woman he's ever really loved. But some promises can't be undone. And Sloane might be the one thing Braden can't win back.

Challenging 8//Tadhg Lynch by LeahLeh96

When two hurricanes collide, destruction is inevitable. Tadhg Lynch has escaped his traumatic childhood. After losing his parents in a tragic fire, being adopted by the Kavanaghs at twelve gave him and his siblings a chance at a fresh start, a better life. But despite keeping busy with Tommen and Hurley, no one seems to notice that the stubborn, sharp-tongued boy is still trapped in the past. Haunted by nightmares and tormented by endless "what ifs," Tadhg struggles to escape his own mind, masking his pain with harsh words and a defiant attitude. The only person who refuses to back down from his temper is a freckled, headstrong girl in his class who matches his stubbornness blow for blow. Isabell Donnelly is bold, outspoken, and unafraid to give as good as she gets. She can take anything Tadhg throws her way. But beneath her fiery attitude is a girl suffocating under the weight of responsibility, with a mentally unstable mother, a father who can't find financial stability, and two younger sisters looking up to her for guidance. Isabell constantly doubts herself and never feels good enough; she barely has a moment to breathe. They may act like rivals, constantly at each other's throats, but something keeps pulling them together. Whether it's fate, frustration, or the simple fact that they see through each other's masks, neither can seem to walk away. And as much as they fight it, sometimes the person who pushes you the hardest is the one who understands you the most.

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.
