What He Doesn't Remember — paperback

Book One Psychological thriller

What He Doesn't Remember

A gripping psychological thriller with a romantic foundation — and just enough bite to keep you guessing.

When single mom Theressa Blake meets Preston Caldwell, a widowed father with a quiet son and a dazzling smile, she finally starts to believe in second chances. Beneath their picture-perfect life lies a darkness no one dares to believe.

Jayce claims he doesn't remember anything.
But memory can lie.

What Was Left Unsaid — paperback

Book Two Emotional romance

What Was Left Unsaid

Book Two in the What We Carry series — for readers who love emotional romance, complicated characters, unexpected connections, family secrets, and What He Doesn't Remember.

Leah is at a loss about who she's supposed to become. One reckless mistake changes that — and suddenly, everything she believed about her life is called into question.

A quick escape gives Leah space to breathe, to make choices for herself, and to discover a version of herself she hadn't met. Just when she begins to believe her life might actually be stabilizing, something threatens that fragile sense of normal — pulling her back into a world of secrets, guilt, and questions she can't ignore.

Because leaving doesn't mean you've escaped.
And sometimes, the things left unsaid are the things that change everything.

The Author

About Kali

I traded corporate paperwork for stories that cut deeper — romantic suspense tangled with secrets, obsession, and redemption — and I haven't looked back.

As a lifelong bookworm with a soft spot for second chances, I've always been drawn to characters who fight for love even when it hurts, and I love exploring the messy, beautiful tension between passion and danger.

When I'm not tormenting fictional couples on the page, you'll usually find me crafting, gardening, traveling, or stealing quiet moments with my husband and daughters. Coffee helps. So do sweatpants.

Through their constant support, I've learned one thing I'll never stop proving: it's never too late to chase the story that keeps you up at night.
