I Promised Him Home, After All This

Sometimes, coming home means facing the things you left behind—and discovering new reasons to stay. When Mitch and Zach take the kids on a muddy, laughter-filled hunt, it’s just the start of a season of change: a brother’s secret heartbreak, a reluctant journey to Silver Hollow, and the ache of goodbyes no one wants to say. As babies are born and old wounds resurface, Mitch returns to find Taylor—his heart and home—changed by his absence. But love, like family, is messy, stubborn, and worth every sacrifice. Will Mitch’s homecoming heal the gaps between brothers, generations, and lovers? Or will the price of growing up be letting go of the childhood that kept them safe? When the past and future collide around the family table, only one question remains: can love hold everyone together, or will change pull them apart?

A searing, emotionally charged story of reunion, healing, and the courage to choose love over the past. Set against the vibrant pulse of New York, two souls find home in each other after years of longing and regret. The tone is intimate, cathartic, and full of hope.

Some endings are silent, but the ache never is. I thought Eli and I were forever—until a single betrayal tore us apart, leaving me clutching memories and a cheap county fair kite. Years later, I’m called back to his side as his emergency contact, thrown into a whirlwind of old wounds and unfinished business. He’s surrounded by new admirers, but the past still claws at both of us. I want closure, maybe even forgiveness, but Eli only offers distance. My friends say I’m a fool for loving him, but they never saw the sacrifices he made, the debts unpaid. Now, as I watch him slip away for the last time, I’m haunted by one question: Was I the one holding him back—or was he always running from something he could never name? If love is letting go, why does it hurt so much to set him free?

Caleb promised me forever, but when success called, he took our son and his first love—leaving me with nothing but broken vows and a silent house. In my last life, I waited years for a family that never came back; this time, I’ll walk away before they can shut the door on me again. He chose ambition and another woman—now I choose myself, no matter how much it hurts.

He claimed me as his wife—on the world’s biggest stage—right after forgetting our divorce. Now Hollywood’s golden boy is chasing me through viral headlines, a mess of lies and longing, while the world roots for a fairytale I know is broken. I was never his first choice; I was just the stand-in for his real love, and when his memory returned, he shattered me all over again. But now Evan will risk everything—his fame, his pride, even his life—to win me back, no matter what the world thinks. Can a love built on betrayal ever become real, or is forgiveness the one role I’ll never play? When the final curtain falls, whose heart will survive?

He saved my grandmother’s life—then demanded mine in return. For five years, I lived in the shadow of Harrison Grant: his executive assistant by day, his secret lover by night. I was never his equal, just the woman he kept close until someone better came along. When he cast me aside for a perfect match, I thought I’d finally broken free—until he returned, demanding I marry a stranger to tidy up his own engagement. Enter Caleb Foster: rough, honest, and nothing like the man I used to love. Our marriage was supposed to be fake, but somewhere between shared meals and silent nights, I found the kind of devotion I never thought I deserved. Now, with my old life crumbling in scandal and my heart on the line, I have to choose: keep haunting the past, or finally step into the sun. Can love bloom after goodbye—or was I only ever someone’s backup plan?

Death didn’t free me—it just sent me back to the moment my life fell apart. In Maple Heights, I was the girl who 'tricked' her way into the Whitmore family after a scandalous fall in the river, never believed, always alone. But now I’m reliving my past with memories of every betrayal—especially from my jealous half-sister and the husband who never truly saw me. This time, I won’t let the same lies define me. When Harrison, the town’s golden boy, tries to claim me again, I refuse to play the grateful wife. But as my old rivalries reignite and new suitors emerge, I face one impossible question: can I finally choose my own happiness, or will the past repeat itself? What if the man who once saved me is the one I must save myself from?

A letter from home is the only thing keeping a disgraced clerk sane as he’s swept into a doomed frontier war—until a legendary commander with a seven-foot blade emerges to rally the broken and betrayed. But the myth is a mask, the victories are illusions, and every promise hides another lie. Trapped between merciless Dakota riders and the wilderness, the survivors must hold a nameless spring against impossible odds, gambling everything on water and hope. When the truth rips away every comfort, the clerk faces a final, brutal choice: cling to the past, or follow a madman into one last, desperate assault. What would you risk for the chance to go home—when home may already be lost?

Some families are forged in blood, others in fire—and Ben Whitaker knows both kinds of scars. When the quiet strength of Clayton Reed and his fiercely loyal kin draw Ben into a world where alliances mean survival, he must decide where his loyalty truly lies. Haunted by the memory of a mother he never knew and the legacy of a family determined to protect their own, Ben finds rare comfort in unexpected places—until a chance to unite a divided county puts every bond to the test. As an ambitious pact is struck and old wounds threaten to surface, Ben faces a choice: hold on to the past, or risk everything for a future that might finally feel like home. But when the dust settles, who will be left to call him family?

He was supposed to be my forever—until he walked in with someone new on my birthday. Blinded by the accident that saved his life, I thought Mason would always be my anchor. But tonight, he shattered our unbreakable promise in front of everyone, leaving me exposed, humiliated, and forced to let go of the only love I’ve ever known. Just as my world collapses, Carter Hayes—the boy next door turned protector—returns, holding out hope, secrets, and maybe something more. When a chance at sight—and a second chance at love—appears, will I risk my heart and trust again, or is some darkness too deep to escape? When loyalty becomes betrayal, who will help me see the truth?

He always did the right thing—even when it broke his heart. Dylan Brooks, the self-proclaimed 'honest guy,' thought marrying Savannah—the city’s most notorious heartbreaker—would finally make him enough. But Savannah’s beauty hides cold indifference and a string of betrayals, and Dylan’s loyalty is tested past its breaking point. When a midnight confrontation exposes the final lie, Dylan is forced to decide: does honesty mean staying true to her, or finally to himself? In a world obsessed with appearances, can the man who never lied learn to keep one secret of his own? What happens when the honest guy walks away first?

He was my childhood friend, my secret crush—and, eventually, my husband in a marriage built on regret. They called us the punchline couple, a running joke among the rich, but no one saw the scars beneath our bickering. When fate throws me back to high school, I swear this time I’ll confess my feelings before tragedy can claim his future. But as old crushes return and Lucas’s secrets unravel, I’m caught between the boy I lost and the man I married. If the past and present collide, will I finally get my happy ending—or break both our hearts all over again?
