He's going under. Someday, she's not going to be able to tug him back to shore. Owen Gibson's life is collapsing in on him. As things grow harder to bear and secrets are revealed, Owen begins to sink under the weight of everything that is now out in the open, which once lived exclusively in his tortured memory. Niamh Lynch refuses to let him go under. Her life mission-once to protect herself and her family-is now to keep Owen going, which is easier said than done. With a love tested by trauma, detectives, and familial difficulties, Niamh and Owen both forget about the world that exists out of smalltown Ballylaggin and allow themselves to be absorbed by the chaos. What they both need is for the other to pull them out. But living in this strange new world, is that even possible?

Lacey Love Keane has always known how to outrun the past. Lip gloss sharp, heels higher, and heart locked up tight. But in Ballylaggin, the secrets don't stay buried, and the people you love don't always stay yours. Lacey's learning what it means to stay. To build something real. To be seen-and loved-for who she is, not who she's been. But loving Johnny Kavanagh is anything but simple. Because he's choosing her in secret, while the rest of their world falls apart in broad daylight. But nothing stays hidden forever. When ghosts from Lacey's past arrive with teeth, the fragile world she's built starts to crack. As friendships splinter and loyalties blur, the truth threatens to blow everything apart - especially when Lacey is forced to choose between protecting herself, or finally letting someone else try. Meanwhile, Johnny's caught between the girl who's tearing his world open-and the life everyone else built for him. To love Lacey means standing still when he's meant to run, and fighting battles that aren't his - yet somehow feel like they always have been. In a town that loves to talk, a secret love can't last forever. She's chasing her youth. He's chasing her. And the truth? It's catching up with them both.

Four years ago, Evelyn Kavanagh left Ireland behind for a prestigious ballet school in London with one goal: dance professionally. Now she's back in Cork with a career-ending injury, two overpacked suitcases, and absolutely no idea who she is without ballet. At Tommen College, everyone already knows her name. Johnny Kavanagh's little sister. The ballerina. The girl who disappeared to London. Evie has no interest in being anyone's tragic story. She's still loud, chaotic, flirtatious, and far too good at pretending she's fine. But rebuilding a life she never planned to return to is harder than expected-especially when it means reconnecting with the people she left behind. Including Gerard 'Gibsie' Gibson. Four years ago, Gibsie only knew Evie as Johnny's annoying little sister. Now she's somehow become the funniest person in every room-and the one person he can't stop thinking about. But Evie's still figuring out who she is beyond the dream she lost, and Gibsie has always hidden more behind his jokes than anyone realises. Between rugby matches, late-night baking, school chaos, and the kind of friendship that slowly becomes something more, Evie and Gibsie might just help each other heal in ways neither of them expected. If they can stop driving each other insane first.

Evelyn lynch was her mother's daughter. kian holland was his father's son, or thats what everyone said.

Saoirse O'Sullivan. X. Cian walsh {pronounced: SEER-sha. {pronounced: KEY-an Ccoh SULL-ivan}. WALL-sh} Saoirse O'Sullivan is the kind of girl people think they understand until they look a little closer. Loud, sharp, and impossible to ignore, she hides the quiet suffocation of a life controlled by appearances and expectations. With a mother who molds her and a father who barely notices, Saoirse has learned to perform-confidence as armor, humor as deflection. She thrives in chaos, clinging tightly to friendships that feel like family, yet there's always something restless beneath her skin, a sense that her body, her life, has never fully belonged to her. She is fire wrapped in silk-bright, reckless, and slowly burning out. Cian Walsh, on the other hand, is the kind of boy people overlook until it's too late. Withdrawn and unpredictable, he carries anger like it's stitched into his bones, shaped by a home where silence and control speak louder than love. He doesn't explode-he simmers, sharp-edged and dangerous in the quietest ways. Once surrounded by friends, now distant from most, Cian exists on the outskirts, finding solace in simple things like rugby or long walks with his dog. He isn't trying to be difficult; he just doesn't know how to be anything else. To most, he's trouble. To himself, he's just surviving. Together, they are something volatile and inevitable. Saoirse's chaos meets Cian's restraint, her noise clashing against his silence until something cracks between them. They understand each other in ways no one else does-not because they're the same, but because they recognize the damage. Where she is too much, he is not enough, and somehow they meet in the middle, messy and imperfect. It's not soft, not easy, and definitely not safe-but it's real. And for two people who have spent their lives pretending, that might be the most dangerous thing of all.

Ivar's eldest daughter is arranged to marry Prince Edward, the eldest son of his old friend King Alfred. As king of Ireland, this marriage seal an alliance between Ireland and Wessex. Princess Aslaug is a volva like her namesake grandmother, and adjusting to the court of Wessex brings unforeseen challenges.

Grace has everything she needs. A life she loves, friends who make her laugh, and a playlist for every mood. The last thing she needs is disruption, and the last person she expects to bring it is Conor Hayes - Dublin-born, Hollywood-made, and one of the most famous men Ireland exported right now. When their worlds collide back home in Ireland, what starts as an inconvenient attraction becomes something neither of them planned for...Some love stories just don't follow a script.

When war sweeps across Ireland, eighteen-year-old Lady Róisín O'Callaghan inherits more than a title-she inherits a kingdom on the brink of destruction. With her father and brothers dead, Dunleith Castle stands as one of the last strongholds of the old Gaelic world. English armies advance across the land, ancient alliances crumble, and powerful lords choose survival over loyalty. Alone and untested, Róisín must navigate a dangerous world of politics, betrayal, and war to protect her people. But when an unexpected alliance brings a mysterious warrior into her life, duty begins to clash with desire. As enemies close in and the fate of her homeland hangs in the balance, Róisín must decide what she is willing to sacrifice-for her family, her people, and the man she never expected to love. Set against the breathtaking landscapes of medieval Ireland, The Wolf of Dunelith is an unforgettable tale of courage, passion, and the enduring fight for freedom.

A humorous original tale of love, courage, diplomacy, politics, space travel, self-discovery, the human condition, and urban guerrilla warfare. This is the story of a young girl's quest to understand the world in which she lives, and to change it for the better, by any means necessary. It is also the story of a family trying to mend broken relationships, planets on the brink of war, and a corporation's efforts to undermine and manipulate governments throughout the galaxy, and beyond.

Florence Carson has spent most of her life surviving. Growing up with an alcoholic and abusive mother left her carrying scars that no one can see. When things finally become unbearable, Florence escapes to live with her father and older brother, hoping for a fresh start and a chance to rebuild the life she's never truly had. What she doesn't expect is Hayden O'Brien. As her brother's best friend, Hayden is everything she should stay away from: guarded, mysterious and carrying secrets of his own. He keeps everyone at arm's length, refusing to let anyone get close. But from the moment Florence enters his life, something begins to change. As their friendship grows into something deeper, Florence and Hayden find comfort in each other's broken pieces. Together, they learn that healing isn't about forgetting the past- it's about finding someone willing to face it with you. When old wounds and long-buried secrets threaten to tear them apart, they'll have to decide if love is strong enough to overcome everything they've been through.

1913. As the Russian Empire celebrates three hundred years of Romanov rule, Lady Maeve Fitzgerald travels from Ireland to Russia with her family to forge a partnership between Glenara's renowned hunters and the Imperial Orlov stud at Zalesye. What begins as a discussion of horses soon becomes something far more personal. Far from the glittering ceremonies of St. Petersburg, Maeve discovers a family unlike any she has known. Grand Duke Alexander and Grand Duchess Elena have built a life where duty is balanced with laughter, where loyalty is earned, and where their children-from thoughtful Andrei to spirited Natalia and the irrepressible twins-welcome the Fitzgeralds into a world that slowly begins to feel like home. As Maeve and Andrei's quiet friendship deepens into something neither expected, both families find their lives becoming increasingly intertwined. But beyond the warmth of Zalesye, Europe is changing. Ancient alliances are shifting, old certainties are beginning to crack, and the future of empires-and the families who serve them-will soon be tested in ways none of them can imagine. Some bloodlines are inherited. Others are chosen. And the strongest families are built by both.
