SEQUEL to Ms. Beaumont
Three years ago, Annabelle Rivers made the hardest decision of her life-she walked away from Eleanor Beaumont.
No goodbye that fixed things.
No more chances.
Just distance...and silence.
Now, Annabelle has built something new in New York. A life that finally feels right. Alongside Lucy and Juliet, she's carved a future far removed from the chaos she left behind-working in child protective services, fighting every day to give vulnerable children the safety she once struggled to find herself.
Eleanor? She became a ghost Annabelle learnt not to chase.
Until she isn't.
When a high-profile case lands on Annabelle's desk, it pulls her into a world of power, money, and secrets-one that requires the involvement of a private security firm known for handling things quietly.
Beau & co.
Professional. Untouchable. Controlled.
Run by Eleanor Beaumont herself.
Neither of them knew the other would be there.
Neither of them were prepared for what it would feel like to stand in the same room again.
Three years hasn't softened anything-it's sharpened it.
Because the truth is, they're not the same people they used to be.
Annabelle is stronger, harder, no longer the girl who needs saving.
And Eleanor...is even more dangerous in the way she carries herself now.
Forced to work together to protect a child caught in the middle of something far bigger than anyone expected, they find themselves walking a line between past and present-between what they were, and what they could become again.
But some things don't stay buried.
Some choices don't stay in the past.
And when secrets start to unravel, one question lingers between them:
Was walking away the thing that saved them...or the thing that broke them for good?

Claimed Boundaries
Some people leave. Some people stay. After a year that nearly broke her, Sam returns to school with weight. Between therapy, a cracked home life and a mind that never seems to slow down, she's convinced she's destined to face everything alone. That is, until unexpected connections bloom and walls begin to crack. Sam discovers healing may not always be fixing what's broken. Sometimes it's finding people willing to sit beside you in front of the fire. "I will love you until every star in the universe burns out"
Loving Solomon
Solomon Sinclair keeps her life in careful balance. Final year of college. Disciplined. Capable. Calm. She's built herself out of grit and grace, always the one to carry the weight, to make sure nothing cracks. To most, she seems laid back. Easygoing. But that's only what she allows them to see. Olivia Valentine- Saint to the few who get close-is soft-spoken, steady, and guarded for good reason. A second-year psychology professor with a gentle way of holding space, she's spent years keeping her life quiet, controlled, untouched. She doesn't let people in easily-not anymore. They are not looking for each other. But the pull is quiet. Unmistakable. Safe, but unfamiliar. Like recognizing something you've never had but always needed. What begins in silence becomes something neither of them expected-a slow, careful unraveling. A story of restraint, trust, and healing the parts of ourselves we never knew how to name. Loving Solomon is a tender, slow-burn WLW romance about two women who've always held themselves together... and what it means to finally let someone in.

𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐖
Lucia Bellandi has always been certain of who she is. At twenty, her life is comfortable, predictable, and carefully uncomplicated. She has her friends, her university classes, her part time job, and a future she has never had much reason to question. Then she meets Professor Vivienne Marrow. Cold, intimidating, impossibly composed, and far too observant, Vivienne is the kind of woman Lucia should have no reason to think about once she leaves the seminar room. Except she does. At first, Lucia tells herself it's admiration. Vivienne is intelligent, confident, and everything Lucia wishes she could be. The strange feeling in her chest must mean nothing more than nerves. But the more often their paths cross, the harder it becomes to ignore the questions Lucia has spent her entire life avoiding. Because sometimes discovering who you are means questioning everything you thought you already knew. And sometimes the person who makes you question it is the one person you were never supposed to want.
Falling In Love (GxG, TxS)
Isabella had always lived between two worlds. Born in Italy, she grew up surrounded by loud summers, warm nights, and a language that felt like music. At 13, she moved to England, where she learned to start over and rebuild her life without losing the parts of herself she refused to let go. Now 20, she was stepping into her first year at university in London, uncertain but determined. By night, she was the voice of a band playing small venues and crowded bars, creating something bigger than themselves. People saw her as outgoing, creative, and easy to talk to, but Isabella knew there was more to her than what others saw. In the quiet moments, between unfinished thoughts and songs she used to speak what words couldn't, she was still figuring out who she was becoming. Catherine was the kind of woman people rarely forgot, though few ever truly knew her. At 36, she moved through life with quiet control, carrying herself in a way that made spaces feel more ordered in her presence. To her students at the Medical University of London, she was distant, strict, and unreadable. They called her cold, and they weren't entirely wrong. She didn't waste words or offer warmth freely. It was safer that way. Before teaching, there had been years in ICU wards where decisions were made in seconds and carried forever. Though she left that life behind, it never fully left her. Still, in quiet moments, early walks with Sam, books left open on the sofa, something softer lingered beneath her restraint. People assumed she didn't feel deeply. They were wrong. Catherine felt everything, she simply chose not to show it. What happens when two lives built on opposite rules begin to drift toward the same point? They are not meant to intersect, but when they finally do, briefly, impossibly, it feels less like coincidence and more like something already in motion, something neither of them knows how to stopLengkap

All she really wants is to study, get a degree, and eventually make more of her life than her parents ever thought she could.

Will she manage to escape her demons and get her life back on track, or will the whirlwind in form of her professor test her patience to the limit?
Soft Boundaries
Vivienne Blackwood is a thirty-four, a seasoned therapist in a quiet corner of London, known among colleagues for her composure and precision. Her office, filled with worn books, calming scents, and muted tones, is a sanctuary for those seeking healing. Yet, beneath the calm surface, Vivienne hides her own fractures, a dissolved engagement, a strained relationship with her mother and a creeping sense of emotional isolation. Nova Sullivan is twenty-one, an art student who hides behind humour and vibrant scarves. She enters therapy reluctantly, encouraged by a friend after her anxiety and panic attacks grow too heavy to manage alone. Outspoken but fragile, Nova wears her emotions openly, the opposite of Vivienne's pristine restraint. When their sessions begin, Vivienne sees Nova as yet another complex case. However, as weeks stretch into months, their conversations start to touch something deeper, curiosity, understanding, and a wounded recognition they share. Vivienne finds herself seeing the world anew through Nova's passion and raw honesty. Nova, in turn, feels seen for the first time by someone who listens without judgement. But desire is dangerous in the therapy room. As the line between care and connection blurs, both women must choose between professional integrity and the undeniable pull of something real. When Vivienne ends their professional relationship to preserve her ethics, their story doesn't end, it transforms. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes that may be distressing to some readers which may include discussions of mental health and panic attacks, emotional dependency and blurred professional boundaries, references to anxiety, depression and family conflict, mild references to alcohol use and past trauma and power imbalance due to therapist-client dynamic.

Perhaps, Ms. Dover

She is the kind of woman who carries old grief like a folded letter in her coat pocket. But Claire is all sharp glances, quiet presence, and impossible timing. Now, every look, every pause between words, threatens to unravel something they both try to hold together. A slow-burn sapphic love story about restraint, proximity, and all the things we feel before we can name them.Lengkap
