Wonderful book, great character dynamic and storyline! Every emotion was tapped into! Enjoyed the Jake POV chapters at the end. On a serious not, Emma’s deep seeded issue are more common than we realize, and the issues associated with were address in way that encouraged & informed the reader!🤩💕
Miley
Amazing book! It was long but well worth it. I even wish there was more. I loved the bonus chapters but would also love an epilogue. There was a lot of character growth and maturity for both ML and FL. Looking forward to reading the other books in the series. Would love to see Daniel spin off.

My Sister Claimed I Stole Her Baby

My Sister Claimed I Stole Her Baby

My sister, Bella, had a baby in a back-alley shithole. Then she disappeared. A midwife tracked me down using an address Bella left behind. She shoved the newborn at me like a sack of garbage. My parents fell to their knees. Crying. Begging me to take her bastard. Just like that, my future as a promising artist was gone. The neighbors, the priest, my landlord… they all called me a whore. A sinner who had disgraced God. They ran me out of the neighborhood . My life was over. Eighteen years later, Bella waltzed back into my life. A cheap thug with a fake Rolex dangled from her arm. She held my son, crocodile tears streaming down her face. She called me jealous. Accused me of stealing her flesh and blood. Of keeping a mother from her child. And my son? The one I bled myself dry for? The son I poured every last cent into, turning him into a brilliant painter? The son I starved for, so much that I ended up in a hospital bed? The moment he saw his "real" mother, he cast me aside without a second thought. "You pathetic, broke bitch!" he spat. "You stole everything from us! All the happiness that was supposed to be ours!" My parents threw me out like a dog. Bella's thug husband had his men corner me in the red-light district. They pinned me against a wall, their threats vile and clear: Never come back. I had no way out. I threw myself off the Brooklyn Bridge. Then, I opened my eyes. I was back. Eighteen years in the past. Then came the knock. Hell had found my door. I wasn’t going to be the fool who gave everything and got nothing. This time, I took control.

Sembilan Nyawa yang Kuhabiskan untukmu

Aku punya sembilan nyawa, dan enam nyawa sudah kuhabiskan untuk Rico. Kali pertama, aku tertimbun dalam longsoran salju saat mencoba menyelamatkannya. Air dari lelehan salju memenuhi mulut dan hidungku. Kali kedua, aku diburu oleh musuhnya dan ditusuk 24 kali hingga tubuhku hancur lebur. Awalnya, dia gemetar dan berjanji tidak akan menyakitiku lagi. Pada kali ketujuh, dia sudah terbiasa dan sengaja menabrakkan mobilnya padaku hanya untuk menyenangkan seorang wanita. "Nyawanya nggak ada harganya. Asal kamu bahagia, dengan senang hati aku suruh dia mati 99 kali." "Kamu mau lihat kematian macam apa lagi? Aku akan mengaturnya sesuai keinginanmu." Aku terhempas sepuluh meter jauhnya seperti baju bekas yang terkoyak. Darah segar mengucur dari mulut dan hidungku. Namun, aku tersenyum dan menghitung dengan jariku. "Dua kali lagi, utang budiku akan terbayar lunas." Rico Sarihan tidak tahu aku hanya punya sembilan nyawa. Setelah aku mati untuk kesembilan kalinya, aku tidak akan kembali lagi. Ironisnya, saat aku benar-benar mati, dia memeluk erat mayatku yang hangus dan berbau busuk itu, tidak mau lepas. Air matanya bercucuran tak terkendali. "Tiara, kumohon bangunlah. Jangan tega begini sama aku. Kelak aku nggak akan biarkan siapa pun menyakitimu lagi." Sayangnya, tidak akan ada lagi seseorang yang menghapus air matanya dengan tangan gemetar berlumuran darah.

Kata Mereka, Aku Suka Cari Perhatian

Kata Mereka, Aku Suka Cari Perhatian

Aku meninggal di hari aku memenangkan Penghargaan Doktor Medis Global. Tiga jam setelah kematianku, orang tua, kakak laki-laki, dan tunanganku baru saja pulang dari pesta ulang tahun ke-16 adik perempuanku. Ketika adikku mengunggah foto keluarga kami saat merayakan ulang tahunnya di media sosial, aku sedang terbaring di ruang bawah tanah yang tertutup rapat dan berlumuran darah. Aku mencoba menggunakan lidahku untuk menggeser layar ponsel dan meminta bantuan. Di antara kontak darurat, hanya tunanganku yang menjawab panggilanku. Artinya orang tua dan kakakku telah memblokir nomorku. Begitu telepon diangkat, tunanganku hanya mengucapkan satu kalimat, “Karin, pesta ulang tahun Lina yang ke-16 itu sangat penting. Jangan pakai alasan nggak masuk akal untuk cari perhatian kami dan bersikap manja lagi!” Dia menutup telepon dan memutus harapan terakhirku untuk bertahan hidup. Jantungku berhenti berdetak karena nada sibuk telepon. Ini adalah ke-100 kalinya mereka memilih adikku, ke-100 kalinya mereka mengabaikanku, mengecewakanku, dan ini juga yang terakhir. Aku terbaring di dalam genangan darahku sendiri, merasakan napasku perlahan berhenti. Mereka mengira aku kabur dari rumah lagi sebagai alasan untuk melampiaskan ketidakpuasanku. Mereka pikir bahwa selama mereka memberiku pelajaran, aku akan kembali dengan patuh seperti 99 kali sebelumnya. Sayangnya, itu tidak akan terjadi kali ini. Karena aku tidak pernah meninggalkan rumah, aku terus terbaring di ruang bawah tanah rumahku.
