When young English teacher Ashley Branson lands her first job, she plans to focus on surviving her classroom and inspiring students to love literature. What she doesn’t expect is to become the center of a complicated and potentially scandalous love triangle.
Caught between the magnetic pull of the school’s charismatic young hero and the intense, passionate attention of her principal, Ashley faces a choice that could define her future—and jeopardize her career. One offers excitement and the thrill of the forbidden. The other promises security and experience but carries risks of its own.
As rumors swirl and emotions deepen, Ashley must decide which path truly holds her heart—and whether either man is worth the professional and personal cost. I Carry Your Heart is a story of desire, temptation, and the delicate balance between love and reputation.

Some wounds can be seen. Others leave scars no one else can see.
Captain Daniel McFee never imagined his career with the legendary 101st Airborne Division would end in an instant. After a devastating helicopter accident leaves him a below-the-knee double amputee, he must rebuild his life and find a reason to hope again.
Olivia Dunbar knows pain, too. After escaping an abusive marriage that left her physically and emotionally scarred, she is determined to create a new life, even as healing proves more complicated than survival.
When Olivia becomes Daniel’s caregiver, neither expects the impact they will have on each other. As they face daily challenges together, friendship grows into something deeper—but fear, grief, and self-doubt still threaten to hold them back.
Can two people wounded by tragedy learn to trust, heal, and love again?
Wounded, but Not Dead is a moving story of resilience, second chances, emotional recovery, and the courage to choose life and love again.
