Christmas at the Carrington

WHAT IF THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE YOURSELF IS TO LEAVE BEHIND EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER KNOWN? Growing up Reagan Lawson had to face her share of challenges. The only person she has ever had on her side is her childhood sweetheart, Chase. So, when he gives her the perfect life, one she could only ever dream of, she becomes overwhelmed when it suddenly feels like she is drowning in it. After becoming a mother, Reagan is plagued with the trials of new motherhood, losing herself in the process, and when she begins to harbor a dark secret about Chase, she questions if her life was ever as perfect as she thought it was. When she runs into Wells, the "grocery guy," she can't help but feel like he is more of a fate-inspired answer than just happenstance. She seeks refuge with him; finding security, safety, and little pieces of herself that she had been longing to get back. But when everything is exposed and comes to a catastrophic end, Reagan is left burdened with even more life altering secrets. Secrets that she can't escape and that ultimately leave her to make the hardest decision of her life.

Things She Never Said

Birdie Walton's life is unexpected. When she finds out she is pregnant after a one night stand at a college party, she believes her life is ruined. The trajectory of her life is not going as she had planned and it leaves her to decide if she has what it takes to be a mother, despite having never had one to look up to. Then, she meets Miles, the grumpy, borderline alcoholic neighbor, and the two of them seem completely wrong for each other. But despite the fact they can't stand each other, they spend moment after moment sitting on the porch of their duplex, learning about each other. Within time, Birdie begins to chip away at Miles's thick layers to find that he is rooted in devastation and sadness and haunted by his past. After getting to know him and more of his story, Birdie discovers that the two of them are intertwined in more ways than one and the secret she is keeping has the potential to ruin everything. Will the secret be all it takes to push him away? Or will the more time they spend together help them realize that the best parts of life happen when you least expect it?
