Book Description
A street fighter and his childhood crush. A forced marriage. Both are hellbent on leaving the streets of Chicago, except the gang alliance won’t let them. TEAGAN College is my one-way ticket out of this city. For years, I distanced myself from the Chicago underworld. I attend college, work at a florist, and have a boyfriend who knows nothing about my life. Now the leaders of two rival gangs block my escape. My father is forcing me to marry the son of his rival to forge an alliance. A childhood friend I haven’t seen since I was sixteen. Joey’s a criminal, born from violence. Street wars run through his veins. I’ll do everything in my power to make this forced marriage fail. JOEY Once I find her, I’m fleeing the streets of Chicago. Most people think of me as a thug. A useless street fighter called Storm. I’d love nothing more than to get away from this life, but my old man has blackmailed me for as long as I can remember. I’m forced to marry Teagan, my father’s biggest nemesis’s daughter, and childhood crush. All I have to do is bide my time to sever the hold my old man has on me and disappear forever. Author's Note: BREAKING STORM is book one of the STORM DUET. It’s a dark love story between Teagan and Joey. A romantic suspense, enemies-to-lovers, forced marriage, following one couple through disturbing incidences, getting acquainted, lots of steamy moments, and a blood-curdling race to escape. This book ends with a major CLIFFHANGER, so you need to read the books in order. Book two, CHASING STORM, is the conclusion and will be up for pre-order soon.

Book Description
A Three-Year Marriage Contract. Financial Freedom. All she has to do is sign on the dotted line. Finn Trevino’s principal goal is to become CEO of his family’s business at Trevino Holdings. To do so, he needs to change his ways. Finn is like the calm before the storm—magnetic energy—waiting to release its force. He has everything, except a trustworthy wife to devote her time to him and keep his secrets. Knotted by her clandestine past, Wren Jagger keeps to herself, preferring quiet and appearing reserved to those around. By accident, Wren stumbles her way into Finn’s life after losing her job. She does not know how much she’ll have to weather the storm and prays it will break soon. If she survives Finn’s behavior, she’ll be financially set for life. For the volatile Finn to crack, and the battered Wren to trust, they must become the lightness in each other’s dark.

They’re tangled and raunchy… and sometimes downright adorable. The story delves into unpleasant but real issues. It contains adult content and triggers. Reader discretion is advised.

When Oakley Nelson loses her older brother, Lucas, to cancer, she thinks she’ll never recover. Between her parents’ arguing and the battle she’s fighting with depression, she feels nothing inside but a hollow emptiness. When Mom suggests they spend a few months in California with Aunt Jo, Oakley isn’t sure a change of scenery will alter anything, but she’s willing to give it a try. In California, Oakley discovers a sort of safety and freedom in Aunt Jo’s beach house. Once they’re settled, Mom hands her a notebook full of letters addressed to her—from Lucas. As Oakley reads one each day, she realizes how much he loved her, and each letter challenges her to be better and to continue to enjoy her life. He wants her to move on. If only it were that easy. But then a surfer named Carson comes into her life, and Oakley is blindsided. He makes her feel again. As she lets him in, she is surprised by how much she cares for him, and that’s when things get complicated. How can she fall in love and be happy when Lucas never got the chance to do those very same things? With her brother’s dying words as guidance, Oakley knows she must learn to listen and trust again.

Book Description
A USA TODAY BESTSELLER! "A powerful debut that proves the threads that interweave our lives can withstand time and any tide, and bind our hearts forever."—Susanna Kearsley, New York Times bestselling author of Belleweather and The Vanished Days A historical novel inspired by true events, Kelli Estes's brilliant and atmospheric debut is a poignant tale of two women determined to do the right thing, highlighting the power of our own stories. The smallest items can hold centuries of secrets... While exploring her aunt's island estate, Inara Erickson is captivated by an elaborately stitched piece of fabric hidden in the house. The truth behind the silk sleeve dated back to 1886, when Mei Lien, the lone survivor of a cruel purge of the Chinese in Seattle found refuge on Orcas Island and shared her tragic experience by embroidering it. As Inara peels back layer upon layer of the centuries of secrets the sleeve holds, her life becomes interwoven with that of Mei Lein. Through the stories Mei Lein tells in silk, Inara uncovers a tragic truth that will shake her family to its core—and force her to make an impossible choice. Should she bring shame to her family and risk everything by telling the truth, or tell no one and dishonor Mei Lien's memory? A touching and tender book for fans of Marie Benedict, Susanna Kearsley, and Duncan Jepson, The Girl Who Wrote in Silk is a dual-time period novel that explores how a delicate piece of silk interweaves the past and the present, reminding us that today's actions have far reaching implications. Praise for The Girl Who Wrote in Silk: "A beautiful, elegiac novel, as finely and delicately woven as the title suggests. Kelli Estes spins a spellbinding tale that illuminates the past in all its brutality and beauty, and the humanity that binds us all together." —Susan Wiggs, New York Times bestselling author of The Beekeeper's Ball "A touching and tender story about discovering the past to bring peace to the present." —Duncan Jepson, author of All the Flowers in Shanghai "Vibrant and tragic, The Girl Who Wrote in Silk explores a horrific, little-known era in our nation's history. Estes sensitively alternates between Mei Lien, a young Chinese-American girl who lived in the late 1800s, and Inara, a modern recent college grad who sets Mei Lien's story free." —Margaret Dilloway, author of How to Be an American Housewife and Sisters of Heart and Snow
