Are you the lighthouse or are you the storm?
Eden Ivy didn't know why there was always someone in Smith Everett's garage at three in the morning. She didn't know why strange things have been happening to her town the second he stood on the Acacia Bay soil.
But most importantly, she didn't know that he was from a different world, and one that she would hope to never touch.

Poisoned Ivy
When Ivy Mercer accepts a position on the legendary Stone Estate, she expects long hours and impossible standards-not lessons in power disguised as service. Under the sharp eye of fashion icon PR Stone, Ivy learns to navigate a world where beauty is currency and silence is survival. What begins as mentorship becomes a mirror: one woman shaping another until the student starts writing her own rules. But between PR's rituals, Julian Stone's relentless pursuit, and a forbidden love that feels like freedom, Ivy must decide who she is when every hand around her tries to claim her. In a house built on perfection, saying no might be the most dangerous-and the most honest-word of all.
Everest, untitled.
Smile. Pretend to belong. And never, EVER raise suspicion. Your family depends on it. Everest Nathan "Nate" Decker is barely hanging on, desperate to hold on to the few fires in his life he can control. Being the teacher's pet, designated driver for secret therapy appointments for his non-binary sibling, and cooking dinner? Not a problem. What is a problem though, is the inexplicable disappearance of his best friend Javi from his life. Javi has been the sole anchor in Nate's overwhelming blur of responsibility, social charades, and drinking his nightmares away and keep convincing those around him that he got it under control - mostly Nate himself. But when a person from his past appears and threatens to take away the ones he holds closest to his heart, he has to stand up and fight like never before. He has to pick up the pieces he scrambled together over years of neglect, and face the patchwork of trauma, hurt and relationships that build him. He knew he was broken. But now he is deciding for the first time to live for himself.
