​ The Girl Who Found Her Laugh ​Harper was the girl everyone loved: the kind soul with the laugh that melted ice, whose life was set for a happily ever after. But on her twenty-first birthday, her parents delivered a cold, crushing truth: she was to marry Matthew, a man with a dark reputation and an even darker soul. ​Trapped in a quiet, loveless marriage, Harper's vibrant spirit fades until she is merely a ghost in her own life. Her only connection to the outside world becomes the apartment next door, home to a couple in crisis-and to Andrew, a familiar face from her past who sparks a forgotten hope. ​When Matthew's temper turns to violence, Andrew steps in, forcing a confrontation that shatters their polite facade. As secrets unravel and a past love rekindles, Harper realizes she only has one choice: sink beneath the weight of her prison or risk everything for a chance at freedom. ​A desperate, whispered plan for an escape is hatched, sending Harper and Andrew on a life-altering journey. But even across state lines, the past is hard to outrun. This is the story of a woman who chose life, love, and the courage to rebuild her own happily ever after, not on a promise, but on the enduring strength of her own heart.

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
