Lauren Brooks fell in love with Cal Scott at 21, married him at 22, and had her heart broken at 23 when he walked out of their marriage. At 25, while raising their daughter on her own, Lauren is finally moving on with her life...until she learns the reason for Cal's abandonment. The walls she had carefully built around her begin to collapse.

Cal's back, and his arrival changes everything. Lauren knew it was coming, but what she didn't think he'd bring with him was an ultimatum. A choice. One that Lauren feels trapped under. A choice she's unsure will make a difference but could possibly change everything. Cal doesn't just have an ultimatum; he has answers. The ones Lauren so desperately craves. But the truth won't only affect the lives of Cal and Lauren but everyone around them...and not everyone wants the truth to come out.

When you're heartbroken, it lies beneath everything that you do. It's in all of who you are. Foreshadows who you'll be. It hides underneath your smile, rests between your laugh, revels in your tears and taunts your every thought. You wish it away but are too terrified to let it go. When Cal first disappeared, I swore my heart had broken, and before all of this is over, I swear it will shatter into pieces.

This is not your typical happily ever after.... Lauren Brooks wants to do three things: Escape the small town she grew up in, get accepted to her dream school in Chicago, and graduate without drowning in debt. Now she's working her ass off to do just that. With a full course load and a waitressing job at one of the hottest nightclubs in Chicago, she does not have time for distractions; namely ones who only want to get into her pants. She's been burned before.

Out of the past six years of my life, I only remember about half of it. After a dozen doctors and thousands in medical bills, I was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder - one that causes me to lose track of time. Sometimes it's hours, days or even weeks with no recollection of anything. The good thing is it's been almost two years since I had my last blackout. It sounds much better than what the doctors refer to them as, episodes, like my life is a freakin' comedy.

Love is something I've always been afraid of, so I guarded myself against it. But when I met Kam, he changed everything. Kam is everything I want but never thought I could have. Rich, kind, and incredibly handsome, he tore down the walls I had so carefully constructed around myself, revealing a world I never thought possible. When I find the ring with which he’s going to propose, it should be the surprise of a lifetime. Except it’s a nightmare, because Kam doesn’t know about my problem. There are times when I black out, times when I don’t remember things. There’s a voice in my ...

*This book is the sequel to HER and is meant to be read in order. He was my secret. He never knew my lies. I was all he ever wanted. He was the only thing I had. She takes everything and leaves nothing. I won’t share him. I’d die before I let her take him. Because I'm his and he's mine.

Authors Note: Though this can be read as a standalone. I strongly recommend starting from the beginning of the series. If I Break, which is free on all platforms. Our history made things harder. We were associates out of convenience. We tolerated each other. I never saw her that way. She never saw me that way. She and I were never meant to be friends. You’re not supposed to fall for your best friend’s enemy, even if the enemy is YOUR ex-best friend. This isn’t the story of falling in love with your best friend. It’s about falling out of hate.

Kam was supposed to be my future. I thought things would be simpler when I left Alana behind. And for a little while, they were. I fell for Kam. I found a family. A home. People who loved me for who I was—at least, who I thought I was. Then it all fell apart. I’m stronger than she knows. I won’t let anyone, or anything hurt my baby. But there’s myself to think of too. Who I want to be. Who I love. What I want for a future that sometimes, I can’t even begin to envision. When all of this is over, who is it that I can have a life with? Am I his? Or am I yours? Authors Note: Yours is ...

All this time, I’ve saved them. I’ve been the strong one, the stubborn one, the one who fights. Who bleeds. Who lost everything so Megan could have her time in the sun. But now there’s more than just us to think about. There’s a baby coming, and whether it’s Kam’s or Ian’s, there’s only one chance for my future. We have to stop fighting each other. We have to become one. And I know what I want for us. It doesn’t matter whose this baby is. This life isn't just for one of us. If this ends in disaster it won't just be one us at fault, it will be ours.
