Ruckus

**Ruckus by L.J. Shen** is a fiery contemporary romance that leans into forbidden love, second chances, and the messy pull of first love that never really went away. It’s intense, emotionally sharp, and impossible to read without rooting for the characters—even when they’re making risky choices.

Rosie LeBlanc has learnt to live with cystic fibrosis and the hard limits it places on her future. She refuses to be reduced to her diagnosis, but she also won’t pretend time is unlimited. Then Dean Cole reappears: her sister’s ex, the boy Rosie wanted first, and the man who still knows exactly where her defences are weakest. As old longing collides with new secrets, Rosie and Dean must decide what they’re willing to lose—and what’s worth fighting for.

Perfect for readers who like angsty romance, small-town intensity, and morally complicated love stories.

Add it to your cart and see why Rosie and Dean’s story hits so hard.
