A story of love, loss, healing and finding your way back to yourself.

She told him she liked him on a Wednesday afternoon. He told her she wasn't his type. She showed up the next morning anyway. Jane Reyes has always known how to make herself small. How to show up, stay quiet, and do whatever needs doing without asking for anything in return. For thirteen months she works beside Alex Chen, holding his world together in ways he doesn't notice, caring for someone who doesn't care for her. Alex Chen is good at fighting for people who have nothing. He just isn't very good at seeing the ones standing right beside him. He tells himself Jane's dedication means nothing. He tells himself he doesn't notice. He's wrong on both counts. But by the time Alex finally understands what has been in front of him all along, Jane has been doing the harder work: learning that loving someone and losing yourself in them are not the same thing.

Olive is in her late twenties and has everything she was supposed to want: a successful corporate career in New York, a long-term relationship, and a future that looks perfect on paper.

From the cliffs of Cabo da Roca and the surf towns of the Atlantic coast to the sun-drenched shores of Italy and the hidden corners of the Adriatic, she chases the feeling that something more is waiting for her. Along the way, she collects unforgettable places, unexpected friendships, heartbreak, terrible dates, and a growing realization that no destination can tell her who she is. Because sometimes finding yourself means getting lost first. And sometimes love finds you only after you stop looking for it. 🌍 Follow Olive beyond the pages: @seasaltolive

Devour Me Series #4: Beneath Her Hands A Lesbian Dark Romance Thalia Petrou knows how to end a marriage. It's what she's built her life on. By day, she's a food critic and journalist---sharp, admired, untouchable in Monaco's most exclusive circles. But behind the polished reputation lies a carefully guarded secret.

Every time Thalia walks into her firm, it's supposed to be business. Another case. Another ending. It never is. Because with Valen, nothing has ever been simple. Not the way they loved. Not the way they ended. And certainly not the way they keep finding their way back to each other. In a world where every relationship is designed to fail, Thalia has mastered the art of escape. Valen, on the other hand, has built her life on control, precision, and knowing exactly when to let go. But some things don't stay buried. Some endings refuse to hold.

"Some dissonance is written into the score-but she played it like fate had no conductor." When prodigy violinist Macy Eos Thornscroft is chosen as the new concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic, she steps into a world of relentless scrutiny, ambition, and quiet obsession. Driven, brilliant, and haunted by an unspeakable past, Macy's music masks the silence she's lived with since childhood-until one woman dares to challenge her composure. Lydia Tár, the enigmatic and commanding maestro, sees more than talent in Macy-she sees a mirror, a provocation, and perhaps... something she lost long ago. As rehearsals intensify, so do the unspoken glances, the private lessons behind closed doors, and the unraveling boundaries between power and longing. But beneath the music lies something darker-a hidden manipulation, a secret alliance, and a hunger that could destroy them both. With whispers spreading through the orchestra and past wounds bleeding into the present, Macy must decide how much of herself she's willing to lose for the sake of art... and for the conductor who plays her like no one ever has. A tale of desire, discipline, and dangerous devotion, DISSONANCE is a haunting psychological drama that lingers long after the final note.

Their marriage begins with silence, duty, and strangers sharing the same courtyard. Yet beneath unspoken words, stolen glances, monsoon nights, and the weight of tradition, something fragile begins to grow between them. But in a village where everyone watches and honor matters more than happiness, love is never simple. His Quiet Wife is a slow-burn 90s Indian romance filled with longing, family expectations, village politics, and two people learning that love cannot survive where voices are buried.

Zelda is having a bad day. Actually, she's been having a string of bad days. After a failed marriage and the loss of a parent, moving to Paris was supposed to be a fresh start.

Set between Parisian cafés, late-night jazz clubs and one very dysfunctional office, How To Let Go is a witty and heartfelt romantic comedy about grief, second chances, and finding love exactly where company policy says you shouldn't.

Nandini Rajawat was born with a name meant for thrones in dignity, if not in freedom. But crowns are heavy, and their diamonds cut deep. To the world, she's perfect, the obedient daughter, the class topper, the girl who never raises her voice. She smiles while the sharp edges of expectations pierce her skin. She stands tall even as the weight of "what will people say" bends her spine. Silent bruises, swallowed screams, a lifetime of carrying burdens that were never hers to hold. Then comes the storm. A night on a mountain top, rain lashing like accusations, lightning tearing the sky open and her with it. Nandini decides she's done bleeding quietly for the sake of someone else's comfort. Healing isn't graceful. It's raw and isolating and it scars. But from those scars, something grows: wings. Not delicate, not the ones promised in fairy tales. Wings forged from every diamond that cut her, every weight she refused to drop. Heavy. Earned. Hers. "The Weight and the Wings" is reality-based fiction about trauma, family duty, and the brutal beauty of choosing yourself. For every girl told to wear her pain like jewelry - this is Nandini Rajawat taking off the crown, owning her scars, and flying anyway.

The only real light in her world is Carrie and her family-friends who represent warmth, laughter, and the kind of ordinary happiness she keeps reaching for but never quite holds onto. When an unexpected tragedy takes Carrie's husband, Jack, Lena is pulled into a grief that is not her own, yet completely overwhelms her. In the midst of another person's shattered world, she is forced to find the strength to stand firm-even as her own life quietly breaks in two. Written in memory of my good friend - we all miss you.

"Ahhh... I can't do this," said Nandini, lowering her face. Her wet hair clung to her cheeks as droplets of water trickled down to the tip of her nose. She could feel the hot breath of her boss, Arjun Krishna, CEO of the Krishna Group. Arjun gently placed his hand on her waist, over her damp kurta. He softly lifted a finger to her chin and gave her a naughty smile. Nandini's breathing became heavier and louder. "You can't do what?" Arjun asked. It was a rainy day in the city of Bengaluru. During June and July, rain was an uninvited guest, and in Nandini and Arjun's lives, it played an important role. Nandini was a kind and gentle soul from Bengaluru. She had worked hard to complete her M.Com and had secured an assistant's role in a large company. Her mother was frequently ill, and her father had passed away years ago. For the past six months, her younger brother Nikhil had been unemployed. Arjun Krishna was an inspiring young businessman who had taken over his father's company and turned it into a huge success before the age of thirty. Now thirty-three, he never forgot to enjoy life. He changed girlfriends as often as people changed clothes and was known as a playboy. He often made Nandini's life miserable by assigning tasks at the last minute and scolding her for the smallest mistakes. But somewhere along the way, something changed. Something between them. Something special. Neither of them knew when it started. Was it during their endless arguments? The late nights at work? Or the moments when they accidentally saw a side of each other that no one else did? Whatever it was, neither Nandini nor Arjun could ignore it anymore.
