Ninety days. One summer contract. Plenty of time to make some questionable decisions. Tessa came to town for one thing: the role of a lifetime. Landing the lead is everything she's worked for, and if she can survive ninety days of rehearsals, performances, and backstage drama, it could change her future. Then she meets Danny. Tall, dark-haired, ridiculously attractive, and her leading man. A summer showmance with him wouldn't be the worst way to spend three months. There's just one problem: Danny barely seems to notice her. And the returning cast's inner circle has made it painfully clear that the new girl who walked in and landed the lead isn't welcome. Enter Jay. Blond, annoyingly fit, and absolutely not her type, the local dancer invites her paddleboarding after rehearsal. One chaotic afternoon turns into late nights, river bars, bad decisions, and Tessa constantly asking the same question: What are we doing tomorrow? With Jay, summer is easy. Backstage, it's anything but. Claire, Tessa's understudy, seems determined to prove Tessa never deserved the role in the first place. The whispers are getting harder to ignore. And just when Danny finally starts giving Tessa everything she thought she wanted, she discovers her leading man might not be on her side after all. Then there's the one rule Tessa absolutely cannot afford to break. No relationships between cast members. Getting caught could cost her the lead and the dream she came here for. Danny is supposed to be the guy she wants. Jay is supposed to be her safe haven. But somewhere between rehearsals, secrets, stolen nights, and a cast waiting for her to screw up, Tessa starts falling for the one person she never planned on wanting. The contract ends in ninety days. Getting caught could end her dream a lot sooner.

“I don’t care anymore. I have friends now. I’m sure you made plenty in London.” She didn’t look affected at all. The coldness of it actually made me shiver. “You’re being immature.” “You’re an asshole.” “Watch your tone. I’m still your boss.” “My apologies, Mr. Montgomery,” she said, quiet now. “Don’t I get a welcome-back hug?” I asked, hoping, now that we’d finally said something real, she’d give an inch. Jasmine Ray and Japheth Montgomery were best friends before they were anything else — before four years of silence turned two children into strangers wearing grown-up names. Then he comes home. As her boss. Japheth is handed a company in crisis, a rival who wants to watch him fail, and the one person he never stopped thinking about, sitting behind a desk with a stranger’s coldness in her eyes. Jasmine is handed something worse: a father who’s spent nine years reminding her what she owes this family, and a man she trusts turning that debt into a weapon. Because someone close to them needs one thing — a signature, one document, one moment of Japheth’s total trust — and he knows exactly how to make Jasmine get it for him. She has one impossible choice: protect her family by becoming, once again, exactly what she swore she’d never be to Japheth again. Or risk everything to tell him the truth, and pray he doesn’t throw her out of his life a second time. This time, staying quiet isn’t safety. It’s the same mistake that cost her everything once already.

Kiera has spent years surviving by one rule: run! Mute and deeply traumatized, she escapes a hidden underground facility on a remote island where human “Hunters” experimented on her mind, turning her into Subject 3—a psychic weapon stripped of choice and voice. When the Hunters begin their relentless pursuit to reclaim her, led by the cold and meticulous Dr. Hale, Kiera flees into the surrounding wilderness, her fear threatening to unleash powers she barely understands. Her flight brings her into the territory of a bear‑shifter clan, where she encounters Ronan, their Alpha. Fierce, grounded, and fiercely protective, Ronan unexpectedly connects to Kiera through a telepathic bond that cuts through her terror and isolation. Though the connection frightens them both, it becomes Kiera’s only lifeline as the Hunters close in and the island itself begins to fracture under the weight of her uncontrolled abilities. As attacks escalate into a brutal siege, the truth of Kiera’s past begins to surface. Her silence was not an accident—it was engineered. Her panic responses were designed. And buried within her mind is a weaponized trigger meant to reactivate her conditioning and erase what little sense of self she has reclaimed. Dr. Hale knows her real name, knows how to break her—and believes she will always belong to him. Hunted through abandoned laboratories and nightmare corridors filled with the remnants of failed experiments, Kiera must confront her past.

My best friend had one rule: stay away from my brother. But what he didn't know was that his brother kept me up all night. Wren Mercer had spent years being just Ross's best friend. Fine with holidays at the Calloway house, years of watching Dani, Ross's older brother, move through life like nothing could touch him, fine with the fact that he never once looked at her like she was worth the trouble. So she did what any sensible girl would do, she found someone else. Blake Hendrix was everything that made sense on paper. Charming, attentive, and most importantly, not Dani Calloway. She told herself it was moving on. She told herself it was working. What she didn't know was that Blake had his own reasons for getting close to her, ones that had everything to do with the brother she was trying so hard to forget. When Ross invites her to move into their off-campus apartment, she tells herself it's still fine. She has Blake. She has a plan. Dani barely registers her existence anyway. She can handle proximity. She's wrong. Because Dani does notice her. He always has. What starts as tension becomes stolen moments, a secret neither of them planned, and the slow terrifying realization that this is the most real thing either of them has felt in years. But Ross is right there. Blake is closer than she thinks. And secrets don't stay hidden forever. She fell first. He fell harder. And what breaks between them might not be fixable.
