Young Adult Mystery / ThrillerOur School Has One Secret Rule
At Wrenhollow, there is one rule every student learns quickly: when the bell rings thirteen times, stay inside and pretend you heard nothing. Maren Cole did not come to the isolated boarding school to obey. Two years earlier, her sister Josie left Wrenhollow terrified, silent, and unable to explain what happened the night she nearly drowned. Now Maren has earned a place at the same school, determined to uncover the truth. But Wrenhollow protects its secrets carefully. Black feathers appear as warnings. Students disappear after midnight. A hidden society called the Wrens controls reputations, scholarships, families, and futures through a mysterious Book of Names. And Rhys Harrow, the powerful boy who keeps appearing whenever the tide turns dangerous, seems to know far more about Josie's past than he will admit. The deeper Maren investigates, the harder it becomes to tell who is protecting her and who is preparing her for the same fate as her sister. Because at Wrenhollow, secrets are not simply kept. They are enforced. And when Maren finally learns why Rhys was standing on the sandbar the night Josie almost died, the truth will change everything she thought she knew about him, the school, and the rule nobody has dared to break.

Political RomanceMy Husband Is Running Against Me
Camille Vale never thought the greatest threat to her marriage would be ambition. For twelve years, she and Adrian Vale have built a life together—and inside Valecrest Global, they have built two equally formidable careers. Camille is the executive employees trust when everything is falling apart. Adrian is the strategist investors call when millions are on the line. They have always been partners. Until the CEO announces his retirement. Five executives enter the race to replace him. Camille is one of them. So is her husband. At first, they believe they can handle it. They set rules. No confidential information at home. No using their marriage for advantage. No sabotaging each other. Whatever happens at work, they promise their marriage comes first. Then the rankings begin. One victory puts Camille ahead. Another puts Adrian above her. Soon the board is comparing them, employees are choosing sides, journalists are turning their marriage into a headline, and every professional decision carries a personal consequence. When Adrian publicly exposes a weakness in Camille’s proposal, she begins to wonder where being her husband ends and being her rival begins. When Camille receives an opportunity that could remove her from Valecrest entirely, Adrian realizes winning the CEO position may cost him far more than he expected. And when the competition narrows until only husband and wife remain, neither can pretend anymore. They both want the same chair. They both believe they deserve it. And only one of them can win. But this is not a story about cheating, betrayal, or discovering they never loved each other. Camille and Adrian do love each other. Deeply. That is exactly what makes the competition dangerous. Because loving someone does not erase ambition. Supporting your spouse does not mean wanting their dream more than your own. And sometimes the hardest person to lose to is the person you most want to see succeed. As boardroom battles become arguments at home, professional victories leave emotional wounds, and one devastating decision gives Camille the power to destroy Adrian’s chances completely, they must decide what kind of competitors—and what kind of spouses—they are willing to become. Because eventually Valecrest will have one CEO. And when the final vote is cast, one of them will walk out victorious. The other will have to go home with the person who beat them. My Husband Is Running Against Me is a corporate marriage drama about ambition, equality, communication, power, and two people discovering that a strong marriage does not require one person to become smaller so the other can shine.

Billionaire / CEO Romance THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORGOTTEN PROMISE
Ronan Calder and Sienna once made one simple promise to each other: If something could change both their lives, they would tell each other first—even before they knew what it meant. Years into their marriage, they still love each other. They have simply forgotten how to keep the promise. Ronan hides problems until he has solutions because he believes protecting his wife means carrying the weight alone. Sienna stops asking questions when she feels shut out, convincing herself that if he trusted her enough, he would tell her without being asked. Then come the late nights. The unexplained decisions. The conversations with lawyers. The things each of them says are “nothing.” And slowly, two people who still love each other begin building completely different versions of the same marriage. There is no mistress. No secret lover. No great betrayal waiting behind a closed door. Only silence, assumptions, misplaced protection—and all the things two people can invent when they stop asking each other what is actually true. But when their marriage begins to fracture, Ronan and Sienna discover that rebuilding trust requires more than one dramatic confession. It means telling each other about the changed dinner plans. The uncomfortable feeling. The jealousy they are embarrassed to admit. The opportunity they are not sure they want. The fear they have not understood yet. The truth before it becomes neat enough to explain. Because a lot of relationships are not destroyed by the truth. They are destroyed by what people invent in the absence of it. And communication isn't only for big problems. Sometimes telling your partner the smallest thing prevents it from ever becoming a big problem. The Billionaire’s Forgotten Promise is a marriage romance about two people learning that love cannot survive forever on assumptions—and that sometimes the difference between losing each other and choosing each other again is one simple question: “Tell me what you’re thinking.”

Talia knows another version of him. The husband who remembers how she takes her coffee. The man who waits for her after long workdays, notices when she is pretending to be fine, and loves her with an intensity she once believed made her the safest woman in the world. “You know his reputation. I know him.” And she does. Until Ronan’s love begins making decisions for her. At first, it is small. A car sent because it is raining. A problem quietly handled before she has to face it. An opportunity protected because someone judged her unfairly. Then his protection begins reaching into her career, her choices, and the parts of her life she wants to handle herself. So Talia starts keeping things from him. And the more she hides, the more afraid Ronan becomes. The more afraid he becomes, the tighter he holds on. Neither of them stops loving the other.

When one terrifying night finally pushes them too far, Ronan asks the question he cannot understand: “If being free means I have to stand beside your grave one day, then forgive me if I don’t understand why I’m supposed to celebrate it.” And Talia gives him the answer that may end their marriage: “And if being loved by you means I have to ask permission to live, what exactly are you saving?” Now the ruthless CEO who has spent his entire life solving problems must face the one thing money, power, and control cannot fix. His wife does not need him to win her back. She needs him to learn how to let her choose him.

Because Adrian may finally know about his son. But earning his place in Noah’s life—and Elara’s heart—will cost him far more than the money his mother once offered to make them disappear.
