What if We Drown
Amanda Bittencourt
Ashlyn hasn't spoken a word since the age of eight, and her heart's never felt more protected. But, when the confident and ever so charming Derek stumbles into her quiet little world, her emotions-and forbidden desires-have never been so loud. For twenty years, silence is all Ashlyn Holland has known. Haunted by the memories of her father, and the harrowing song of the ocean that stole him from her, Ashlyn maintains a safe distance from the rest of the world. Treading carefully the sea of fear and anguish that surrounds her, Ashlyn is determined to do all she can to protect her heart from such a tragic loss striking again. In silence, she grieves. In silence, she is safe. In silence, she finds the strength to breathe. But the silence can only last so long... Derek Moreno is charming and devoted, and quick to see through every wall Ashlyn erects. With his arrival in town, defences fold and walls begin to crumble, the songs of her heart reaching new heights. Together, they crest twin tides of fate, the silence she'd once sought engulfed by his gentle touch, and the whispers of a love thought impossible. For the summer, Ashlyn welcomes the noise. The disruption. But, the ghosts of Derek's past will no longer remain silent, and their deafening power has the potential to drag them both into a current strong enough to drown them amidst their heartache.

Sacrifice in Shadows
During an ambush, I risked everything to save Matthew, but in doing so, I lost the ability to stand—my legs were permanently damaged.
Matthew was devastated. Holding me close, he swore he would love me forever and never betray me.
Overwhelmed with emotion, I agreed to marry him.
In secret, I sought medical treatment, and after a long, gruelling journey, the day finally came when the doctor told me I could walk again. Overjoyed, I rushed home, eager to share the incredible news with him.
However, the moment I pushed open the door, my world collapsed. Matthew was fooling around with his female assistant—right there in our home.
On our bed.
Wrapped in each other's arms, they kissed passionately, completely lost in the moment.
As things heated up, the woman gazed at him and murmured, "Matt, why don't you just leave that cripple? She can't satisfy you at all."
"Don't you love the thrill of sneaking around? It wouldn't be nearly as exciting if I left her."
A wave of icy rage surged through me.
So that was what our marriage meant to him—nothing more than a twisted game, a joke between him and his mistress.
Drained and heartbroken, I turned and walked out. That night, I booked a flight back to my hometown.
I was done with this city.

You want to use me against my father as your revenge, isn't that right Adriana?” With that, he let go of my arms, shoving me aside angrily—whilst I hit my head against a door frame.
