MIGHTY MITE BOOK 2 I've spent my entire life being told I'm too much, too curvy, too indulgent, too comfortable with a body people believe I should be ashamed of. But I learned to love myself anyway. Then I fell in love with a man whose entire world revolves around fitness, where bodies like mine are judged and appetites are mocked. And when he stood silently among those who looked down on me and said words that were absolutely horrendous, I wondered if loving myself would be enough to survive loving him.

Lana thought the hardest part of joining Grant's family would be getting his mother to like her. She was wrong. It starts with a welcome folder. Then a spreadsheet. A joke at dinner. A rule that somehow applies to her son and nobody else. And through every small humiliation, Grant offers the same reassurance: I'll handle it. Three years later, Lana has stopped believing him. Then a man she hasn't seen since high school walks into her yoga studio and calls her by a name no one has used in 16 years. Oren remembers the girl Lana used to be. More dangerously, he notices the woman she has become. And as the story she's been telling herself about her marriage begins to unravel, Lana discovers that sometimes the person who leaves isn't the one who walks away. Sometimes it's the one who stays-and watches you disappear.

Everyone remembers the man Tristan Scott used to be. No one saw the man he became... until a widow and her twins walked into his life. Dr. Tristan Scott has spent the last ten years believing some mistakes can never be forgiven. As one of the country's most respected cardiothoracic surgeons, he spends his days repairing broken hearts while refusing to believe his own deserves a second chance. Stephanie Miller never imagined she'd fall in love again. Three years after losing her husband, her world is simple: raising her six-year-old twins, honoring the love she lost, and protecting the life they built together. Love isn't part of the plan. Then life keeps placing the same man in their path. At first, he's simply Dr. T-the doctor the twins adore. Then he becomes the man who makes Sunday dinners feel a little warmer, quiet conversations last a little longer, and ordinary days feel extraordinary again. Slowly... Almost without anyone realizing it... A family of three begins making room for a fourth. But just as Tristan finally allows himself to imagine a future he never believed he deserved, life reminds him that tomorrow is never promised. Sometimes the greatest love story isn't about replacing the past. It's about becoming the person brave enough-and worthy enough-to begin again. If Again is a heartfelt slow-burn romance about redemption, healing, grief, found family, and discovering that sometimes the greatest second chance isn't falling in love again... It's earning it.
