Ten years ago, Iris Desmond was pushed out of his life--by the very people who claimed to love him the most.

She was the wrong girl. The outsider. And when threats turned into ultimatums, she made the impossible choice to leave the only boy she ever loved. Levi Astor. Now, a decade later, he's standing in front of her again--wealthier, sharper, harder--and demanding answers she was forced to bury.

Levi Astor built a life that finally makes sense.

He has the business, the legacy, and a partner who fits into the Astor empire. The woman isn't just perfect in his world--but in his family's world as well. Celestine by his side is everything he thought he needed. But when the past resurfaces, Levi is forced to confront the price of silence. Forced to realize that he might have made mistakes. And now, he isn't sure if they're his to mend.

Celestine Wentworth was told to love him--and somehow, it was effortless.

She checks all the boxes for the Astor family. But even perfect boxes have edges. And when the ghost of Levi's first love threatens to unravel everything they've built, she can't help but wonder: she is the right choice for his family. The right choice for his business--the safer choice for his reputation. But still only one of the choices. So is she the right one for his heart?All Rights Reserved

Forgotten Pain by NadiaNevsky88

Nina Reyes lost her job, her health insurance, and maybe her last shred of stability. She's barely scraping by when she's appointed roommate to her high-school tormentor: Lincoln Carter, golden boy graphic designer... turned amnesiac who thinks they're dating. She doesn't trust him. Not his charm, not his chiseled jaw, and definitely not his sudden need to make things right. Lincoln Carter doesn't remember much before the accident, except Nina's warm brown eyes. But she flinches when he gets too close and flattens him with one-liners and vagueness. He does know possession. Nina feels his. He also knows guilt. Sticking and sinking into his skin. Now he's on a mission: figure out what happened, fix it, and win her. Even if it means airing out a few secrets. Forgiveness is not enough, he wants forever. #3 Top USA Stories 09/01 #1 Overheard - 09/02 #11 FamilyDrama - 09/25 #27 ContemporaryRomance - 09/24 #1 amnesia-love-story - 09/26

The Silent Hour by Munroeoffiction

Julia Marcelli thought she'd won the dream. A husband who adored her, a family who lit up her world, and a home on the Miami coast that felt untouchable. But perfection has a way of splintering. Ethan Marcelli is a man who carries secrets as easily as he carries a case file, and when temptation slips into his world, Julia begins to sense cracks in their marriage she can't explain away. Love. Betrayal. Obsession. Control. In a life built on power and secrets, forever always comes with a price. (ETA The Silent Hour is now an omnibus edition, both books in a duet combined into one. This accounts for the higher chapter count. The story contains intense dark and graphic romance themes, crime-world elements, and later explicit steam. Please review the trigger warnings.)

Lamebrain #3: Wasted Grace - SAMPLE by AJBishopWrites

🔥 Publishing on Amazon KU soon! He pined for the wrong woman. And it cost him the right one. When Aarohi left the country, Advik's heart cracked-but it was Greesha's absence that fully shattered it. She'd moved cities for him, built a life with him, handed him her whole damn heart... but then he whispered Aarohi's name when he thought Greesha wasn't listening. Years later, fate throws them back together. But the Greesha Advik once knew-the one who waited, hoped, and forgave-is long gone. This Greesha is guarded. Grounded. Unshakably distant. And he's no longer sure if there's even a version of her who'll let him in again. Because some women burn bright with grace. And some women learn never to waste it again. She wasted hers on him.

Turns out revenge really is a girl's best friend.

February by GrovelDoll

February I thought we had something real-me and Arlo. We moved fast, but it felt right. We laughed, raced motorcycles, shared silence like it was sacred. I believed him when he said he wasn't the romantic type. I believed I was enough. Then he crashed, and while he was healing, I found the letters. Not for me. For her-Lyra, the girl who broke his heart. And suddenly, everything shifted. Every kiss, every quiet moment, every almost-I-love-you.

Ten years later, their once-solid marriage begins to fracture under the weight of vicious gossip, half-truths, and misplaced trust.

Almost Forever by JstrLvs2Write

Adrian Callahan spent a decade chasing Olympic gold, living on the edge of the world. At twenty-eight, he chooses to retire-not because he's broken, but because he's ready to finally build a life with Natalie Reyes, the woman who's loved him long before the medals. But retirement doesn't mean peace. A new career in endorsements pulls him into Vanessa Cole's glossy PR empire, where the line between professional and personal blurs. It's not just temptation-it's a betrayal. And when the truth shatters his five-year engagement, Adrian loses the only thing that mattered more than winning. Now, with the world watching him fall, Adrian must rebuild from the ground up-mentoring young athletes, rediscovering who he is without a podium, and proving that love isn't earned with promises but with choices, day after day. Almost Forever is a story about heartbreak, healing, and the fragile, powerful choice to love again.
