Hael: I let her go once, and it nearly killed me. Now Ariana is back, with secrets in her eyes and internal walls so high I'll need an army to break them down. But I'm well known for breaching walls and claiming hearts. I don't think she realises just how far I'm willing to go or who I am now, but she will, even if I have to burn the town down to claim her. Ariana: He was the boy next door and my unlikely hero when life threw me curveballs. I think I've always loved Hael in one form or another, but when the opportunity arose to escape this town, I reached for it with both hands, leaving him behind like a dirty little secret. I should have known Hael was too much of a man to forget; even thousands of miles away, he haunted me. Now I'm back in Mercy, and I can't keep my secrets quiet anymore.

She came home to marry the man she loved. She didn't know she was walking into a war... Five years ago, Amber Laurent left home as a reckless, spoiled girl who thought the world revolved around her. Now... She returns as something entirely different. A disciplined soldier... A fearless woman... And the same girl who has never stopped loving Cedric Sterling... But the man waiting for her is no longer the powerful heir she remembers. Cedric is now confined to a wheelchair after a devastating accident that killed his father and left him disabled. His girlfriend abandoned him, his family treats him like a burden, and everyone believes his life is over. Everyone except Amber... The moment she saw him, she made one decision. She will marry him! No matter what his family says or what society thinks. And certainly no matter what anyone thinks about his wheelchair. But Amber doesn't know that Cedric has spent the last five years hiding something. Cedric has been secretly hunting the people responsible for the accident and building an empire of his own. He doesn't want to reclaim his family's empire... He wants to destroy it. Now Amber has returned to his side, determined to protect her husband from anyone who dares hurt him. But the deeper she digs into the Sterling family's secrets, the more she realizes that the people she trusts most may be connected to the tragedy that changed Cedric's life. And when the truth finally comes to light, Amber will have to choose between the family she has always trusted… and the husband she swore to protect. This time, the soldier isn't fighting for her country. She is fighting a war to win, enemies who have no idea what they just unleashed, and a husband to protect!

My name is Maya Chen, and I have seven months to stop being the only single senior at Lincoln High. Everyone else posts prom dates, couple hoodies, and first kiss stories. I post nothing. I watch from the sidelines while my friends plan futures in pairs and my mom asks when I will bring someone home. So I make a rule. Get a boyfriend before 18. No exceptions. I build a plan to survive the pressure. Date smart. Date safe. Date anyone who checks the boxes and gets me to my birthday without shame. The plan falls apart the second Cole Evans shows up. He is my brother’s best friend, holds a detention record that scares teachers, and wears a smirk that mocks every rule I wrote. He was never my type. He drives a rusted truck, smells like gasoline, and calls out my bad taste in boys. But he also finds me crying in the bathroom at Homecoming, teaches me to drive stick at midnight, and looks at me like I am not a task to finish. Now I am 18, my plan is broken, and the whole school saw me kiss the guy I swore I would never want. I thought I needed a boyfriend to fix my life. I need him.

I was never supposed to fall for Luca Moretti. He was cold. Untouchable. Dangerous. And after our parents brought our families together, he became the one man I was forbidden to want. Luca made it clear from the beginning that I meant nothing to him. He pushed me away, warned me to stay out of his life, and looked at me like every feeling between us was a mistake. So why was he always there when I needed him? Why did his cold eyes soften only when he looked at me? And why did it feel like he was fighting something inside himself every time we were alone? I tried to stay away. I really did. But the closer I got to Luca, the more secrets I uncovered. His mother was hiding something. His past was darker than anyone knew. And the family that brought us together wasn’t built on the truth. Then I discovered the one secret that changed everything. Luca was never who I thought he was. The man I was told I could never love was hiding a past that could destroy us both. And if the truth comes out, our forbidden obsession won’t be the only thing that falls apart. Because sometimes the most dangerous love story begins with a family lie.
