As a single mother and rising fashion entrepreneur, she's used to pushing past judgment, heartbreak, and betrayal. But when a business deal brings Trent Stoughton into her world-handsome, stubborn, and guarded-everything changes. What starts as a rocky partnership evolves into something neither of them expected.
Just as love begins to bloom, Jennifer's past storms back in-this time threatening the one person she cherishes most. With her son caught in a legal tug-of-war and her heart torn between fear and trust, Jennifer must decide what truly matters.
In a story stitched with love, ambition, and redemption, Pieces of Us is a powerful tale of healing, chosen family, and the courage it takes to build something beautiful from the fragments of a broken past.

Pieces of Us
Pieces of Us Shane is a boy who carries his scars where no one can see them: buried beneath long sleeves, silence, and a heart that no longer believes in love. Haunted by childhood trauma and a mother who broke him instead of protecting him, he walks through life convinced that he is unworthy of care. Then he meets Lance. Lance is everything Shane is not: popular, responsible, and seen as perfect. But behind the polished image hides a boy abandoned by his parents, desperate to be noticed, desperate to be loved. When their worlds collide, neither of them expects the connection that sparks between them: fragile, dangerous, and powerful enough to expose wounds they've both fought to bury. As their bond deepens, the weight of secrets, family expectations, and cruel threats from those around them push them to the edge. Between whispered promises on rooftops and stolen moments that feel too good to last, Shane and Lance are forced to face not only each other, but the demons that refuse to let them go. Pieces of Us is a heart-wrenching story of trauma, love, and survival. It asks: when you believe you're too broken to be loved, what happens when someone chooses you anyway?Complete

His FireLily - (Shadowed Secrets #2)
Carissa Belfiore's mission was simple; hunt down the man terrorising her city and burn his syndicate's web of deceptions to the ground. The catch though? She must work together with the devil in disguise. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 Four months after the trail went dark, Cara and her team gain a second chance at retribution, at tracking down the man responsible for the mysterious chain of disappearances plaguing the streets of her town. Retribution, though, comes at a cost. Missing people and stolen identities unsolved, Cara's boss presents to her with a new ultimatum. She must pursue this mission with Asrea's top (infuriating) agent or lose the rights to the case. With no other choice, Cara must learn to thread the thin line of peace with the devil disguised as a federal agent, one who has little belief in patience and even less so for mistakes. Much like everything else though, it was easier said than done. As the two of them begin to dismantle the empire brick by brick, Cara finds herself pulling at loose strings tying the pieces of the missing puzzles connecting her past to her present. Strings, she soon realises, had been buried by the hands of someone desperately trying to keep her from finding out the truth. A truth that might just break her. No retrogrades, no reversals, and no unknowing the known. If only she could've done it alone, for even the devil must be paid his dues. The devil whose icy, blue eyes never fail to see through every shield and every shadow she'd built around her heart, the very shadows that seem to calm within his presence. The man whose icy rage threatens to thaw her blazing heart. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 First Draft Completed on 12/1/2025 Completed on 12/3/2025Complete
