Captain Y/N is the smallest member of her elite army squad—but the last person anyone would underestimate. Fiercely respected and impossible to outmatch, she leads eight soldiers through brutal training, high-risk missions and the kind of battles that forge unbreakable loyalty. To the rest of the military, they're simply the perfect squad. What no one knows is that behind closed barracks doors, every one of her men has shared her bed. It should have destroyed the team. Instead, it's the one secret that binds them closer than ever. As dangerous missions, military politics and buried feelings begin to blur the lines between duty and desire, Y/N must prove that the strongest thing holding her squad together isn't rank—it's trust.

You were Colson Baker’s favourite mistake. A relationship built on obsession, expensive nights, jealousy, and a love neither of you knew how to handle. You destroyed each other, walked away, and swore you’d never look back. Now you’re posting pictures with someone new, and he’s pretending he doesn’t care. He’s got his own women, his own parties, his own life. But the drunk calls haven’t stopped. Neither have the indirect shots, the jealousy, or the undeniable tension every time you’re in the same room. You know exactly how to hurt him. He knows exactly how to get under your skin. You’re both supposedly over it. So why does it still feel like a war neither of you knows how to stop fighting?

Some relationships don’t know how to stay dead. Y/N and Colson have spent the past year caught somewhere between lovers, strangers, and something neither of them has the courage to name. They fight, walk away, date other people—and somehow always find their way back to each other. Until Y/N finally moves on. Or at least, she tries to. Four in the morning. Pouring rain. One terrible night. When Colson opens his front door, the last person he expects to find asleep on his doorstep is Y/N—the girl who chose her ex over him. She doesn’t know why she came. He doesn’t know why he lets her in. But some things are impossible to walk away from. And by sunrise, they’ll have to decide whether they’re finally going to let each other go… or start acting like that all over again.

A late-night ride home ends with Y/N lying injured in the middle of the road after a hit-and-run, her Harley wrecked and her life suddenly turned upside down. Roman Hayes is the biker who finds her. He calls for help, stays by her side, and follows her to the hospital — despite being a complete stranger. What begins as one chance encounter slowly turns into hospital visits, late-night conversations, damaged motorcycles, recovery, and a connection neither of them expected. Because sometimes the person who finds you at your lowest ends up becoming the person you can’t imagine losing.

Nine years ago, a scarred stranger saved her from a man who wouldn’t take no for an answer—and promised only to take her home. Then he disappeared into prison, writing letters he never expected her to read. Now Soldier is out, trying to start over in a quiet town. His new neighbour is a single mother who looks uncannily like the girl he never forgot. “What is your nickname short for?” “Y/N.” “I knew a girl named Y/N once.” “And I once knew a guy named Soldier.” Nine years. Unsent letters. A past neither of them has escaped.

Y/N hadn't been to the gym in five months. Jake noticed. So when she finally walks back into his life, he asks the perfectly innocent question: where has she been? Her answer — a completely casual confession that she'd had a breast reduction — sends his brain into immediate panic as he desperately tries to maintain eye contact. He thinks that's the awkward part. Then she asks about his dog. His dog died. Then she asks about his dad. His dad died too. By the end of the conversation, Y/N is convinced she's somehow cursed Jake's entire family, while Jake is trying not to laugh at the sheer impossibility of the situation. Neither of them expects that disastrous reunion to be the beginning of something. But as awkward conversations become longer ones, gym acquaintances become friends, and casual smoothies turn into excuses to spend time together, Jake and Y/N slowly discover that sometimes the person you least expect can become the person you most want to see. It started with a breast reduction, a dead dog, a dead dad, and the world's worst conversation. Somehow, it might just end in love.
