The Ones Who Stayed With Me

Laney is trying to settle into something like peace. But peace is fragile and safety is an illusion. The anonymous stalker who haunted her before has returned, and this time... they're escalating. Notes. Photos. Online threats. Someone wants to remind Laney she's still being watched. In the middle of the storm, her boys refuse to let her face any of it alone. Moving in together, they create a chaotic, messy, beautiful version of home. Trust runs deeper. Smiles are real. And Laney is finally letting herself believe she doesn't have to choose, because they've all chosen her. But ghosts don't only live in the dark. As the stalker threat looms larger, Laney is also confronted with a different truth: the family she thought was gone might not be lost after all. And the father she believed abandoned her... never stopped searching. This summer is about danger and healing, intimacy and truth. This is the story of the ones who stayed. A contemporary reverse harem romance where the FMC has multiple love interests, and choosing isn't required.
