18 year old Skyler brown moved to Atlanta Georgia with her family for a fresh start but who would've knew a love story would unfold a new beginning, new life , different outcome ? FIRST STORY***

She walked away from everything-her job, her relationship, the version of herself that always smiled when she was dying inside. Now she's starting over in a city that doesn't know her name... and maybe that's a good thing. What Silence Left Behind is a slow unraveling and a quiet rebuild. A story of grief, softness, rest, and the truth we only tell ourselves when no one's watching.

Leaving Boston was supposed to be the hard part. At twenty-three, Marlowe Lawson arrives in London with two suitcases, a prestigious surgical training position at St Thomas' Hospital, and every intention of starting over. A new city. A new career. A chance to build a life that's entirely her own. She isn't looking for friendship. She definitely isn't looking for love. She's simply trying to survive impossibly long shifts, navigate a city she's never lived in, and convince herself that leaving home was the right decision. The last thing she expects is the quiet man living next door. Reserved. Private. Impossible to read. To the rest of the world, he's Harry Styles. To Marlowe, he's simply the neighbour she passes in the hallway every morning. As chance encounters become familiar routines and ordinary moments begin to mean everything, two strangers slowly discover that sometimes the people who change your life don't arrive with grand gestures-they arrive with a quiet "morning," a shared cup of coffee, and the feeling that, for the first time in a long time, you're finally home. A story about finding yourself, finding each other, and discovering that solace isn't always a place. Sometimes... it's a person. 🥈#apartment 🥇 #harrystyles

Hi :) This isn't a fairytale. It's basically my diary. Everything here is inspired by things that actually happened to me. Some details are changed, but this is how I remember feeling. I'm not a professional author, so bear with me. 😭 If you decide to stay till the last chapter, thank you. 🫂

Alice never believed she was meant to be loved. After a lifetime of feeling unseen, judged, and trapped, she finally takes a chance on the one thing she's always been afraid of-starting over. A new country. New people. New dreams. But sometimes, leaving your past behind doesn't mean you've escaped it. Maybe finding a new life begins with finding yourself. ♡

What if meeting the right person isn't a coincidence? Sienna thought moving to a new city would mean a fresh start. New apartment. New job. New life. The last thing she expected was to literally run into someone who would slowly become one of the most important parts of it. Asher wasn't supposed to be part of her new beginning. He was just a stranger who happened to help a very lost girl find a coffee shop. Then she ran into him again. And again. With every unexpected encounter, their connection becomes harder to ignore. But neither of them knows where this is going-or whether they're simply caught in a series of coincidences. Maybe they're just two people who keep finding each other. Or maybe... they were written in the stars. ✨

Surviving the end of the world was only the beginning. Shara and the others have spent years learning how to stay alive in a world overrun by the infected. They learned to sleep lightly, trust carefully, ration everything, and never assume that safety would last. Now, something is changing. The infected are weakening. Some are collapsing without explanation, and the force still connected to Shara seems to recognize a pattern it has yet to reveal. For the first time in years, the possibility exists that humanity's greatest threat may not last forever. But surviving a dying world and learning how to live in what comes after are two very different things. Back at the sanctuary, Shara, Randy, Marcus, Darius, and Lena begin doing something none of them expected to have the luxury of doing again: planning for a future. Gardens expand. Water systems are rebuilt. Permanent rooms replace temporary sleeping spaces. Slowly, a refuge created to keep the world out begins making room for other people. Then signs of another survivor appear beyond the boundary. As strangers become neighbors and survival gives way to community, Shara and the others must decide what parts of the old world are worth rebuilding-and what kind of world they want to create in its place. Because humanity doesn't just need to survive anymore. It needs to remember how to live. Calming the Wild is the second and final book in The Wild Duology, a post-apocalyptic story about survival, healing, found family, rebuilding, and the quiet courage it takes to hope again.

Some people spend years searching for the right person. Others spend those years searching for themselves. When We Were Becoming follows three lives that don't begin together. A woman learning to trust herself again. A man who hides his grief behind quiet smiles. A woman who knows that some endings don't leave scars, they change the way you love forever. Their stories unfold across different moments in time. Some chapters revisit the past. Others linger in the present. Piece by piece, memory by memory, three separate journeys begin moving toward one shared story. Because before we become someone's favourite memory... We first survive becoming our own.

In a world where legacy is everything and love is a transaction, two wounded souls are forced into a marriage of convenience, only to discover that their greatest battle lies not in the boardroom, but against the ghosts of their past. Monique Arnaud is the ice queen of the corporate world. Publicly known as Monique Prince to honor her cold, estranged parents, she is a fortress of control, haunted by the childhood tragedy that killed her brother and left her with a guilt her mother has never let her forget. She wears gloves to avoid the memory of her brother's cold hand and trusts no one but her grandfather and her devoted driver. Adrian Parker is the rebellious, "spoiled" party animal, forced to bury his dream of being a professional race car driver to satisfy the demands of his domineering father, a retired general turned pharmaceutical titan. Seen as a disappointment, Adrian wears his playboy persona as a shield. SHADOWS OF DESTINY is a gripping story of redemption, resilience, and the healing power of unexpected love. It is a tale of two broken people who, in their fight to protect each other, finally find the courage to save themselves, learning that the strongest foundations are not built on blood or business, but on the unbreakable bonds of a family you choose. --- Copyright Notice: This work is an original creation, written and owned by kaynee2016.

Until You Felt Like Home She was quiet. He was cold. She found comfort in little things. He found comfort in no one. Elara had always been the kind of girl who preferred books over crowds and silence over unnecessary conversations. With a loving family, simple dreams, and a heart full of things she never said aloud, she was ready to begin a new chapter of her life-college. Then there was Kian. Rich, distant, and almost impossible to read. He spoke only when necessary, trusted almost no one, and kept everyone at an arm's length. The only person who could see the softer side of him was his little sister-and perhaps his childhood best friend, Dev. Their worlds couldn't have been more different. So what happens when a girl who never expected anything extraordinary from life crosses paths with a boy who had stopped letting people get close? Maybe home isn't always a place. Maybe sometimes... it's a person you never expected to find. And maybe, before Kian realized it- Elara started feeling like home.
