    Summary

    Scarlett Anderson thought she had left her past behind—Kurt, Mariah, and a wedding that became her cautionary tale. Yet grief and betrayal have a way of resurfacing, especially when her professional world collides with the emotional scars she’s carried for years.

    Conrad Fisher, still haunted by a summer that tore his family apart, never expected to find steadiness in someone like Scarlett: brilliant, guarded, and fiercely protective of those she cares for.

    When their pasts echo in each other’s lives, professional loyalty gives way to fragile, undeniable longing. Moving on isn’t easy—it means facing old wounds, choosing honesty over silence, and daring to trust someone again.

    A story of heartbreak, healing, and the terrifying, beautiful risk of letting someone in.

    Summary

    She wants to hit herself back to reality. She shouldn't be doing this. She knows how it feels to be cheated on—the betrayal, the humiliation, the way it hollows you out from the inside. But Jeremiah started it. So why can't she? Just once, to even the score. But she doesn't want to put Conrad in that position. His father's affair wrecked him. He loathes the very act that tore his family apart, that broke his mother in ways she never healed from. But oh… It's them, isn't it? In a way, it's always been them. And Conrad seems to be thinking the same thing; fate’s a bitch. Is this what it's like? When you and the love of your life can't be together, so you start turning away from your morals, compromising everything you once believed in?

    (or: belly and jeremiah get married, but belly and conrad still love each other. one more thing, they fuck—a lot.)

    Summary

    Last summer left Conrad Fisher with nothing but ruins, yet autumn offered something unexpected in the form of Devon Watson. Not a saviour or a whirlwind, but a steady presence, unflinching in her care. In her company, Conrad found the seasons shifting; loss no longer the only thing to measure time by.

    Or, in which Conrad finds someone who chooses him and only him for once, and tries to mend his relationship with the only living member of his family that he can somewhat stand.

    Summary

    "He kissed you with fervor, his open mouth hot against yours, an arm on either side of your head caging you in. Your senses were on fire and all you could see, hear, smell, touch, taste, was Conrad, the absolute center of your universe...[He] looked angelic backlit by the blaze of the rising sun, his golden hair illuminated and a hazy glow cast around his body. His frame was still hidden beneath his navy Cousins Beach t-shirt, but you were so familiar with the shape of him that your eyes could trace his contours even through the fabric."

    Waking up early is only good for one thing: Conrad's undivided attention in all of the best ways.
